Melvin and Thomas: Chapter 4: The situation.
_ ~~Thomas's point of view~~ _
I just sat there on my bed for a moment while my head was busy processing what just happened. I finally realized what just happened. It was all my fault. I shouldn't have been so stupid to just sit about naked. I knew they were coming home. Now my brother has been shot at and is gone.
My emotions were all mixed up. I wanted to be sad, angry, ashamed all at the same time. But most of all I just wanted to kill myself. I just wanted to take a knife and end it all. My father walked in. ''What have you turned him into?'' he shouted. Since Melvin was gone now he shoved blame on me. ''Well... I... He...'' Weirdly I couldn't find an answer to his question despite the fact that his question didn't make any sense. ''You fucking faggots!'' He threw my computer on the ground. ''You'd better put him out of that little faggy head of yours because he's a dead man.'' He said quietly while being very close to me. ''I'm gonna kill him.'' He said looking out of the window at the tire tracks visible from the quickly departed Dodge. My mother stood silently crying in the corner of my room. She suddenly turned round. ''You can't kill him Brian! He's your son!'' she shouted at him. ''Huh, after what these two homos did, I can't call either of them my son.''
I started crying. And begged for his mercy. ''Please don't kill him papa! He's my only brother! I don't wanna lose him!'' I begged him for it while taking hold of his waist. ''Get off me you fag.'' He said slapping me in my face causing me to yelp. ''Besides, you already lost him, he ran away, too cowardly to die.'' He said on a sad puppy tone. ''H-he's coming back for me! I know it!'' I shouted trying to sound brave. It came out worse than I hoped. ''Heh, IF he comes back he must be the stupidest dog in the universe.'' He laughed. ''Well, at least he'll always be smarter than you!'' I said to myself but apparently it came out louder than I thought. He moved back to me whispering in my ear. ''Maybe, but if he is that smart as you say, his smartness will kill him.'' He turned back to walk out of the room. But before that he turned round and spat in my face. When they were outside dad closed the door and locked it. I returned to do the only thing I could at this moment, crying.
~~Melvin's point of view~~
I just kept driving to the south as far as possible, crying about the things that happened. I stopped the blood emitting from my shoulder with a clean cloth and kept it there since my escape. I was around halfway to the south (say twenty miles) when the Charger suddenly emitted a large bang and after around half a minute after that happened it started to shudder and creak and slowly came to a halt. I turned the ignition key once more but to my disappointment it didn't respond. I got out of the car and opened the hood with my good arm. The radiator was completely shattered. And the drive belt was ripped apart too. I started mocking. ''No, No, No!'' Not now, not here.''
I was in the ditch of a two lane road. Then I remembered, I had a contact list of suppliers and garages in the glovebox. I went round the car and opened the glove compartment. I took out the list and started searching for garages in the south. I found one and reached for my phone. It started to ring. ''Hello?'' The phone was answered. ''Uhm... Is this Dexter Automobili?'' I asked the guy on the phone. ''It has been a while since we had a customer... What can I do for you?'' He asked. ''Yeah, my car broke down. Can I get a hand here?'' I asked him. ''Sure what's your current location?'' He asked me back. ''Uhm, not really sure... I'm on road 733 say around halfway between the north and south. I'm in an old orange Dodge Charger.'' I gave him all the details I could. ''Alright I'll be right there with a truck. Don't move.'' He said and hung up the phone.
I went back into the Charger and turned on the lights. I was tired and started thinking about Thomas. I wondered how he was. I started crying again. After fifteen long, agonizing minutes thinking about Thomas I snapped back to reality. I didn't have any cash, no id, nothing. I was too tired to worry about these things. I started to doze off into sleep. After what seemed only like seconds someone knocked on the window waking me up. It was a big German shepherd. I opened the window. ''Hey there sleepy. I'm Dexter. You can call me Dex.'' He said. ''Hi, I'm Melvin.'' I said. ''What seems to be the problem here?'' He asked. Before I could answer that he opened the hood. ''Oh dear, that doesn't look good.'' Dexter said. ''I can't fix that here. I'll have to put it on the truck.'' He told me. He had a small truck with a tow arm for the wheels. ''Oh, okay.'' I said and got out of the car.
When I got out the shepherd noticed my injury. ''Dude, what happened to your shoulder?'' Dex asked in fascination. ''I got shot at.'' I said. ''Does it hurt?'' He asked. ''Not that much anymore.'' I replied. ''Good... Very Good... You may get in the truck if you want.'' He said. I went in the truck and we hooked on the Dodge. We drove down the road to the south with not much chatter. We reached Ibiza City. We drove to what appeared to be an abandoned shop. ''It looks like shit, I know. We haven't had a customer in months.'' Dex said. My poor car was pushed inside.
Inside were four more furs playing poker. ''Alright guys, we have work to do!'' Dex said. The furs quickly gave up poker and started working on my car. ''Hey, Mel, follow me for a sec.'' Dex said. I followed him into a room which was probably meant as a lounge since it had a TV, sofa and a coffeemaker. ''Right, about the payment...'' Dex begun. I suddenly got nervous and started to blush. ''Well, you see Dex, I don't really have any money...'' I admitted. ''Oh dear, that's not good...'' Dex said. ''If there is anything I could do to pay you back, just tell me.'' I told him in a asking voice. ''Well, there is one thing you can do..'' He said with a smirk on his face. I started to blush realizing were this was going.
