Revolution
“Titch sniggered in the back.
Boyd thumped him on the shoulder.
"Shut up you little creep." "Hey, what did I do this time?" Titch whined rubbing at his arm.
"Just shut up," Pete said as Boyd climbed out the backseat.
"Come on, Jack," Boyd said to me. "Get in for Christ's sake before it gets dark." It looked like I was to be the in between-oh guy in the back again.
So I jumped in and Boyd jumped in after me.
And as soon as he did Pete rammed his foot down before Boyd had a chance to pull his legs... in the door.
I tried for some wriggle room between Boyd and Titch but I couldn't even find the seat belt.
I gave up.
"Where are we going to this time?" I asked.
"Black Widow's place," Pete said yanking the cigarette from his mouth.
A cloud of smoke hit me in the face.
We were headed for Cammo, The House of Shaw's. The place Robert Louis Stevenson wrote about in Kidnapped a long time ago.
Only now the place was nothing but rocks and ruins and galls thrown up through grass like suppurating sores.
We didn't pick it for all that.MoreLess
