______________

Skylar's POV:

"Okay listen if we get this done today then we move on to what I really need to do but first we need to deliver this order." Sage holds up a brown wrapped package keeping his other hand on the wheel, Dean takes it from and shakes it by his ear. "What is it?" I ask taking it holding it in the backseat with me.

"A box." He snickers and so does Dean making my face drop, "No shit sherlock, I mean what's in it? drugs?" I ask again and he shakes his head, "Not drugs it's an actual tech order, three computer mouses." He says seriously, well this isn't fun. "Really?" I question handing it back to Dean, "Yeah but whatever the buyer is giving us an early payday which we need." Dean says and it's true, we do need an early payday.

I need an early payday. My phone went off and I quickly picked it up seeing my favorite notification.

Beans :D

Beans :D
Hi, I miss you!

Me
I miss you too, I don't even know where the hell we're going

Beans :D
I'm sure it's better than school, I have an urge to skip

Me
You?
You want to skip?
Beans, you want to skip?
Did I read that right?

Beans :D
Yes you read that right, school has become boring
Now finals are coming up and prom but that's still a maybe for me
But Tyler likes to ask and I know Carmen's going she's just waiting for my answer
You know before she buys any tickets

Me
Right prom, still don't get why schools have those

Sage never had one neither has Dean
And tell Tyler to shut the fuck up

Beans :D
I don't know America is weird like that
And I'm not going to tell him that
But I will start ignoring him if he keeps bothering me
And when are you coming back I know you said a couple of days
But is it really going to be that long

Me
I don't know, I just assumed that's it's going to be while
We've been out of the city for a few hours now

Beans :D
Must be important then

Me
Everything we do is important

Beans :D
You're right but I have to go, the teacher is walking around

Me
Alright
Don't have too much fun without me

Beans :D
Wouldn't dream of it ;)

I smiled to myself shaking my head as I put my phone away. "Ahhh who's got my little cousin smiling like that, is it Bailey?" I look at Dean who looks like he just witnessed everything I've done. "Why do you want to know?" I drop my smile and he chuckles to himself.

"Because it's cute, you're in love. It's about time we had something cute happen to one of us." He says putting on his shades and we both glance at Sage as he grips the steering wheel. "Sage what's the other thing we're going to do after the delivery?" I ask and he eyes me through the rearview mirror.

"I found a lead on Liliana, it's small but I couldn't just let it go, anything helps. I can't keep going knowing she's still out there. I don't care if the Angellos won't help me. I'll do it myself." I notice the speedometer go up and Dean holds his shoulder.

"We're gonna help you man, don't stress too much okay we'll find her. Even though it's been years." He mumbles the last part, I heard it loud and clear though.

We slow down and Sage lets out a shaky breath. "I miss her and I refuse to believe whatever her family part of the mafia say. They're a bunch of fucking nutsacks." He complains rubbing his hand on the bottom half of his face.

Liliana has been missing for years. Leads rarely appear and yet Sage still tries, he doesn't like it when someone tries to tell him that she's dead, he doesn't believe it one bit but no one believes him.

I miss her too, I don't I'll ever not miss her. She become the mother figure in my life while Sage played both roles of father and brother.

I don't think I've seen my brother happy since he came back without Liliana. He's hasn't recovered, he's just adjusted to not having her in his life. He's learned to do things without her by his side. Dean and I have seen him through that time and it was bad. The regret eats him up. But it's not his fault.

I can't let that happen to Beans. In order for that to happen, I just might need to expose her to our world. Just a little. A glimpse. Not right now though. Her birthday is coming up in a few days and I need to be there. I need to be there.

"Hey guys I need to make a stop on our way back." I speak up and they both hum at the same time. "Where?" Sage asks pulling down a random street. "The city hall. I left something there." I tell him and he shrugs, "Yeah that's fine." He puts the car in park and Dean whips around. "What?" I question. "What did you leave at the city hall?" He asks, "A leather cover." I simply say looking down at the package.

"What the fuck is a leather cover?" He raises an eyebrow as if I spoke in a foreign language. "It's a type of book cover you idiot." Sage pushes his shoulder making him bounce in his seat.

"What I don't read, all I know is paper and pencil but why do you need a leather cover you don't read either. Actually, none of us read so what the fuck? Are we starting a book club?" He looks at us like we're crazy.

There's a reason why he doesn't have a phone. "The book isn't for me." I tell him and he looks even more shocked. "You know you always surprise me, I can't keep up with your ass." He laughs, "Okay the buyer is around the corner, dark blue hoodie and he's a ginger so there, Sky you're up and it is drugs they're just in the mouse." Sage unlocks the car and I roll my eyes at him getting out.

I tighten my belt by one hole feeling my gun press against my back, as long as it doesn't make any noise we're good. I keep the package by my waist and I put my own hood up and a pair of fake glasses that look real enough.

I turn the corner seeing a man smoking by two tin trashcans in front of a bricked graffiti wall. "Buck Technology?" The man in the dark blue hoodie asks and I nod still keeping the box close to me while I stand a few feet in front of him. I don't know who came up with such a stupid fucking name for a fake ass tech company. I glanced down at the packaging label seeing a username on the buyer's name line.

"Not ginger balls three two one?" I say it out loud, this is fucking embarrassing. "Uh yeah that's me, I couldn't change my username but you got the ten large?" He pops the cigarette out of his mouth and he holds out his hand, "Depends, you got the payment?" I ask and he throws the orange butt on the ground and takes out a wad of cash. Hell yeah!

"Full payment." We toss the items both of us catching them and I take a glance as he rips the box open, "Nice doing business with you." He gives me a toothy smile then walks into a nearby door, I smile to myself keeping the money in my sleeve as I walk back to Sage's car. His windows rolled down as I got close and I frisbeed the stack into his lap before hopping back in.

"Easy shit but he smelled of cigarette smoke and those blue Doritos." I tell them both and Sage passes me a couple of bills and to Dean. $400 easy work. "Good job, these next few months will be good money so let's keep it up and make our asshat Angellos happy. I'm tryna stay alive." He starts his car and Dean and I high-five each other. These next few months are going to be the best.
