Barbara entered the kitchen at Garvey’s. Daniel was cutting tomatoes. She jumped up on the steel table he was working on and blew out a long sigh. “What’s wrong, Barb?” Daniel asked. “I’m tired of being treated like a baby. I’m nineteen. Been away from home for a year and would have stayed away, if the recession hadn’t fucked me,” she complained. Daniel smiled. “What did your parents do to make you mad?” “They want me to quit. They found out about the weekend orgies because of the bust Saturday. I told them that I don't participate and even if I did, I'm an adult now. I can make my own choices. They went on about how I’m still young and impressionable and sex kills. Bottom line, my dad said if I was grown enough to work here, I'm grown enough to move out. So, I packed my bags and left. I'm hoping that Jackie and Jodi will let me stay here for a while.” “Wow, sounds like you both put your foot down.” “Y

Jodi and Matt Kirby pulled up to Marty Schaffer's house. David and Danielle were already in position as the lookouts. Matt wore his deputy's uniform just in case someone saw him around Marty's house. The excuse would be that the sheriff had asked him to pick up some case files. Jodi had wanted to break in Marty's house with Bonnie, but Matt wouldn't have it. After a long argument between Matt and Jodi during a quick meet-up at Jesse's home, Jesse had intervened and said both of them needed to go. Matt gave Jodi a deputy’s uniform and hat to disguise herself. He treated her like she was a fly in his way, so they argued about that during the car ride to Marty’s house. They didn’t speak to each other as they walked to the back of Marty’s house.Matt bent down and lifted the back doormat. Jodi glanced at his butt and thought it was a waste that a nice ass like that was on a jerk like him.Matt picked up the key he found. “See. No reason to be a thief wanna be and pick the lock. I told yo

It was Saturday night at Garvey’s, two months after Marty Schaffer’s arrest. The Garvey crew couldn’t have been happier. It was 11:30 p.m. and the place was hopping.The twins got news late Friday afternoon that Bobby Jacobs, the ADA in Phoenix, offered Marty a deal and he took it. He really didn’t have a choice but to take the deal. Marty will serve five years with the possibility of parole in three or go to trial. If Marty went to trial and lost, he would have served ten years. There was no way he could explain the coke in his room; especially since the bag they found in his suitcase really was his. He couldn’t prove he was setup, no fingerprints thanks to the villa threesome wearing gloves. The hotel clerk was the only witness that could place Jackie, George, and Jesse at the resort and she wasn’t talking. Eight hundred bucks was enough to keep any front desk clerk quiet, which had reminded Jackie to give Barbara a raise.George, Jesse, Danielle, David, Bonnie, and Joe decided to c

Joe had gotten a call from his supplier, D.J. He had gotten in a shipment and wanted Joe to come as soon as possible to pick up his portion at a warehouse outside of Phoenix. Joe usually picked up his dope at a restaurant in Phoenix that D.J. used as a front. Joe had asked about the change in location and the hurry. D.J. believed the cops were onto him. He was afraid to move the shipment from the warehouse. D.J. wanted his customers to pick up their product as soon as possible so he could disappear for a while. Joe couldn’t decide if this was going be his last run or not. He’d been selling weed for two years. The 2008 crash had affected his business at the diner. The only way to keep the place going was to get a side hustle. The drug business was the only thing that was flourishing at that time. Joe had inherited the town diner from his parents. He couldn’t lose it. Business had been so slow that Joe couldn’t pay his business or personal bills.One night at the diner, a trucker had p

Jodi and Jesse drank beer in his kitchen. They were reminiscing about some wild times at Garvey’s. Jesse had a grayish goatee and a bald head. “I can’t believe you and Bonnie fucked in the hallway of the hotel,” Jodi said as she laughed. “You two couldn’t make it to a room?” Jesse chuckled. “It wasn’t that. We were in the mood for a change of scenery, so we snuck up to the second floor and did the deed right against the wall.” “No one saw you?” Jodi asked with astonishment. “Of course, people saw us. A drunk couple from out of town got off the elevator. They didn’t care. The middle-aged guy encouraged me.” “How?” “He said, give her hell, man, I’m about to get balls deep myself,” Jesse said and laughed. Jackie laughed, too. “Oh, shit.” “You think that’s a hoot, check this out. The door next to us opened and a man came out stark naked. His woman peaked behind him. She was naked, t
