The sun was down. Derek said he wanted to go dancing. We drove to the club and he went out on the floor by himself. I stayed at the table.
Later Reece had a television in the back seat. He said we were going to watch a movie. He would not give the apartment number. He put pieces of tape on the railings as he went up.
We followed the tape through the stairwell. On the fourth landing it stopped. We stood there. Somebody downstairs was coming up. Reece looked at the television and then at the door in front of us. He didn't say anything.
Laws were broken. Debts left unpaid. Minutes later we would be lying in a ditch, car wrecked, and surrounded by cops.
I wake up.
