Kyla: "Spencer, you don’t have to come with me anymore okay? I know all of that was hard on you."

Spencer: "Yeah it was."

The two walked up their apartment. Kyla knocked on the door.

Aiden: "who is it?"

Kyla: "Open the door whore."

The door opened. Aiden was standing in front of them. He looked at Spencer.

Aiden: "You! You got my sheets dirty!"

Spencer: "Sorry. I didn’t mean to."

Aiden: "Do you know how long it took me to wash that out? Do you?!"

Madison: "Aiden, shut up."

Aiden walked into the kitchen. Kyla and Spencer walked in. Madison shut the door behind them. The two sat down on the living room couch while Madison sat on the stairs.

Kyla: "How do you feel? Still sick?"

Madison: "I’m alright. Bad days come with the disease."

Spencer: "Disease?"

Madison: "Oh, right, you should know. I have AIDS."

Spencer: "Seriously?"

Madison: "Yes, seriously. You don’t have to ask how."

Spencer: "I won’t."

Madison: "How were the fights today?"

Kyla: "Hot. It was boiling today, the dogs were downright hostile. Simba took out a dog in less than 30 seconds..Hey, where’s Ashley? She takin the nightshift?"

Madison: "I don’t know. She didn’t call. Aiden was about to go out."

Aiden came out of the kitchen with two bottles of water. He handed one to Kyla, and then to Spencer.

Spencer: "Thank you."

Aiden: "Stay off my bed."

Spencer: "Okay, I said I was sorry."

Aiden: "Everynight I come home from cheap motels, dirty backseat cars, and dark disgusting alleys, so when I come home, I want a CLEAN BED TO SLEEP IN!"

Spencer couldn’t help but laugh.

Spencer: "Okay man I’m sorry."

Kyla: "Ashley isn’t supposed to be out tonight."

Madison: "Why not?"

Kyla: "Because she’s tired and now that schools getting ready to start again police are gonna be out more often."

Madison: "*cough* That’s true..but-"

Kyla: "I should go look for her."

Aiden: "No I’ll go. You sleep."

Spencer: "Can I go with you?"

Spencer wasn’t really thinking when she said that, but she did want to go. it was all of the screaming dogs she heard a couple of hours ago. She wanted to get those horrible sounds out of her head.
