Seeing the drugs and alcohol around me go fuzzy I call my sister.
“Robyn?”
“Can you come and get me?”
“Where are you?”
I glance at the big white house behind me. “Topper’s I think.”
“Why don’t I send JJ to come and sit with you, he just got done next door.”
“Sar- I think someone slipped me something, everything’s all fuzzy.” I panic.
“Bobbi,” She calms me down. “JJ’s out front in his truck, he’ll take you to the hospital and I’ll meet you there.”
“Okay. See you soon.” I hang up and run out front. As soon as I spot JJ, Rafe grabs me. “Ow, Rafe.”
“Where’re you headed?”
I yank my wrist back. “Going to meet up with Sarah and Kie.” I push past him and bolt to JJ. “Hi. Rafe is behind me asking questions, can we go?”
He opens the passenger door for me. “Hop in.” We speed off, and as soon as we get on the main road JJ looks over at me. “Sarah said you might’ve been slipped something?” I nod. “Okay, let me know if you’re feelin’ woozy or nauseous so I can help you, alright?” I nod again. “Y’know I don’t think we’ve officially met. James Jesse Maybank.” He holds out his hand with a goofy smile.
“Robyn Cameron.” I shake his hand. “Thanks for coming to my rescue.”
“No thanks necessary.” He shrugs.
“But you hate my family?”
“But you’re not really a Cameron. I remember you, Robyn Mayzie Taylor. Queen of the Cut.” He smirks. “It’s an honor to rescue you, my lady.”
I laugh. “I haven’t been Bobbi Mae in years. But thank you, kind sir.” I pause, not sure how to ask this. “You know why I left the Cut, right?” When he starts to respond my phone rings. “Sarah.” I put her on speaker. “Hey Sar, you’re on speaker.”
“JJ, don’t come to the hospital, Rafe and Ward are here asking about Robyn.”
My face pales, but before I can ask more JJ responds. “Sarah if she’s been dosed she has to see a doctor.”
“Pope and Kie are at the Chateau,” John B butts in. “We’ll meet you there and figure it out.”
“Bird, call Laura. Tell her it’s an emergency and don’t tell her about Robyn.” He sighs. “See you at home.” He ends the call.
