68 Refuge part 7 (2/2)

Derek and Trevor went back and forth like that for a while till Trevor stopped it.

Derek tried to rebuttal but Trevor interrupted him ”and before you say anything else me and Trent are planning to leave the city guard, our contracts are going to expire in a few more years. I was going to wait for Trent, but since your just such a relentless ass hole I couldn't wait any longer”.

Derek looked at Trevor and then said something he wasn't expecting to hear out of Derek's mouth that day him agreeing. ”You two are planning to quit, well that's fine then”.

Trevor was about to burst a blood vessel when he heard Derek agree so fast and easily to what he said. ”You have refused and fought over stuff like this for years why are you so fine with me and Trent quitting. Me and Trent talked it over for a long time before we decided and you just agreed in a second”.Trevor furiously shouted at Derek.

”I have stayed in the same position to protect you guys I couldn't do that if I got promoted because the military would see that as me having favorites and giving you any kind of extra help would be wrong. If I tried anyway it would create a lot of problems leading to all kinds of things I didn't want to go through.

Trevor shook his head while cursing Derek's name inside ”so all this was for nothing”.

Derek nodded ”as long as you two quit I'll take the promotion so yup”.

”This whole thing was just a big wasn't of my time you stubborn bastardy”.

Derek shook his head then asked, ”where's Trent isn't he coming you guys said you were going to do this together”.

”We weren't going to do it so soon today you just broke me plus just look at what time it is you know where he is now”.

Derek looked at the clock and knew where his friend was ”right its that time of the day again so he is at that restaurant again the stalker”.

”Hay that's mean you shouldn't undermine a man's hard work like that he's the king of stalkers get it right next time”.

Both Derek and Trent started laughing and joking around about Trent when Trent walked in. Derek and Trevor were not expecting Trent to pop in at that moment but it didn't stop them from laughing at him.

Derek called to Trent ”hay Trent did you get to smell her hair this time or did you keep watching her from a distance”. Trevor was on the floor with his sides hurting from laughing so hard completely forgetting about the anger he felt because of the ordeal Derek put him through. While Trent didn't need much context to know what they were talking about.

”To hell with both of you, now shut up and read this” Trent pulled out a note and showed it to the two.

Trevor with tears in his stares and short of breath ask ” what is it”.

Trent replied, ”A chances”.
