Freedom
The one thing that sets us apart from animals. That and common sense. After five long ass years, I have my freedom back. I'm no longer an animal waiting to be feed through a cage by some dick wad. I can do what the hell I want. Be myself. Get up and go places when I want to, not when I'm told to. Freedom is everything in this country. And to put it simply, if you didn't have it the chances are you're living like shit, you're unhappy and waiting for your life to end. Trust me, I've been there and I don't plan on going back.
I wait outside the prison gates for my friends to pick me up from this shithole. When they let me out earlier today, I didn't look back. I did glare at the guard on my way out though. And I didn't say goodbye to any of the friends I had made in there. I saw no reason to. They weren't going to be there for me in the outside world. Why waste my valuable time? And speaking of valuable time, my friends are late. You would think when it really mattered they'd be on time.
Honk Honk
Finally. It's not long before the car I've been waiting to see drives into view. I let out a small sigh as I hear Maroon 5 blasting from the speakers of the car. I have a love hate relationship with the driver of Ford Explorer. When the vehicle stops, I'm ambushed by boobs to the face.
"Grimmjow! I'm so happy you're out. I've missed you so much. My baby brother. I missed your face!"
"Nel, get boobs from out of my face. You're killing me."
"Oops, sorry about that. I'm just so happy to see you! It's been so long."
"She's got a point, Grimm. Five years is a long time." I hear from the other side of the car. I look up to see a long-time friend of mine. His name is Shinji and he's been with me since I could walk. Shinji is one of three people I can really trust in this world because I don't have many friends, considering the life style I used to live. But that's all in the past now. I'm going to try and start fresh, get a real job. I doubt anyone would hire someone like me and with a background like mine.
"Get off my back, I know it is but she doesn't have to crush me with her ginormous tits."
"That's no way to describe your sister. That's borderline creepy." I snort at that. I make my way inside the dented truck and sit in the passenger seat.
"Hey Shin, you drive." I tell him. He nods his head and gets in the driver's seat.
"Hey! It's my car damn it! I'm driving." Nel screeches. I laugh at her expression. She knows damn well that I don't let her drive when I'm in the car. I like to get to my destination safely, thank you very much.
"Neliel, you know as well as I do that you can't drive to save your life, my life or Grimmjow's life. Just do us all a favor and be a backseat driver or something, yeah?" Shinji tells her. Nel pouts for a minute but accepts it.
"You better not put a scratch on her." She mumbles. At that Shinji and I tip our heads back and laugh loudly.
"Nel, it's already scratched and dented. I don't have to do shit but drive this motherfucker!" Nel doesn't say too much after that as Shinji drives off.
I don't ask where we're going. I really don't want to know and honestly, I don't care. I just want to enjoy the ride while I can before I get out and have to deal with all the bullshit the world has to offer. I hadn't really thought about what I was going to do after prison. I was so concerned with getting out that it slipped my mind. It sounds kind of clichéd but the only thing I could do in that piece of shit place was sleep, work out and watch my ass. Literally.
"So Grimm. Any place you wanna go in particular?" I don't bother to look at Shinji when he asks me that. I'm not trying to ignore him. I just think he already knows what I want to do.
"Well…"
"Just take me home. After five years in a cell, a bedroom with a color of my choosing would be nice."
"Aw come on Grimm. Live it up a bit. Go out. Meet somebody. Tell you what, I'll take you to this new club-"
"Shin, I said no. I just want to relax for a little while. We can do whatever next week or something but as of right now, at this very moment in time, I just wanna go home." It was quite for a little bit.
"Let's just do what he wants." Nel says broadly. It was rare for her to sounds so defeated but at least she saw things my way. Shinji groaned but kept driving.
I hadn't realized I had fallen asleep until Nel was softly tapping my shoulder. I don't normally fall asleep in cars. I like to see where I'm going. Guess I was more tired than I thought. I get out of the car as Nel instructed and walk up the stairs to her house. She unlocks the door with a smile. I knew something was up then. When I walk inside the house I see nothing but decorations.
"Surprise!" Says the one person sitting on the couch. And that person was Gin. Gin is a friend of mine and like Shinji he is one of the three people I trust in the world. He's been there to listen to all my shit. So I guess he's like a human diary.
"What the hell is this?" I ask.
"It's a welcome home surprise party!" Nel says cheerfully.
"Yeah, it's a welcome back from prison party." Gin says confidently.
"Not much of a party with three people."
"Well, not many people wanted to come since, you know..." Nel begins. I feel myself getting angry.
"Since what? Since I'm a criminal. Is that what you wanted to say? Go ahead you know you want to because that's what I am right?" She stares at me in disbelief.
"Grimm you know that's not what I meant."
"So what did you mean?"
"She was just saying that you don't have many friends. I don't know if you've noticed but you don't trust people very often." Shinji says. I know he's right but after making myself look like an ass, I can't admit it.
"Whatever, I'm going to bed."
"Grimmjow, it's five o'clock in the afternoon." Gin says smartly.
"Then I'm taking a nap!" I told them I didn't want to be bothered. What person would after you just got out of the worse place on earth?
I slam the door shut but it's reopened shortly afterwards. I look over and I see Gin. I'm not really surprised that it's him. He's normally the one that calms me down after shit like this happens.
"Someone's got a metaphorical meter stick up their ass."
"Don't start with me." I growl.
"I'm not. Just came to see what's eatin' ya'." I could lie to Gin and say nothing but I know from experience he'd know I was lying. I sigh and tell him everything that's wrong in my life.
"Where am I supposed to start? After all the shit I've done. What am I supposed to do? I don't where to start looking for work but I know nobody is gonna want to hire some weirdo with blue hair and a criminal record. Nel's nice enough to put me up with a place for now but shit that could change in a week or two. You know how much we fight. I know it's probably be a lot easier to just go back to fucking people up for that bastard Aizen but I couldn't do that to Nel. He's part of the reason I was in prison anyway. The fucking prick. I just…I just don't know what I'm gonna do, Gin."
Throughout the entire time I was complaining, Gin said nothing. That's what I loved about him. He didn't question or try to help until he knew what was going on. He sat quietly on the bed. I'm assuming he's thinking, you can never tell with him.
"You want to work?"
"Gin, I'm not going back to that." I say sternly.
"No, no Grimm. I know this cool ass guy that could give you a job at his construction place. He owns it so he has the say on who gets to work or not. He's been talkin' about findin' somebody to take someone's place. Guess he fired some guy. I could talk to him later on today and see if he still needs some extra help."
"Y-You'd do that?"
"Course I would! I got your back if no one else does." And he's right.
"Thanks man, if this does work out I'll owe you big time."
"Yeah, yeah. You've said that before. But how about we go and cheer up your sister. She went outta her way to make that cake you know. And you know she can't cook. So how bout it?" he says as he offers me a hand. I take it and he pulls me up.
"Let's get this over with."
Three hours later
I bet you think I had the time of my life hanging with my best friends after I just got out of prison, right? Well, you're wrong. So very wrong. These idiots decided to get drunk and pass out. The nerve of them. I could care less that they passed out on me but they could've at least shared the alcohol. Fucking alcoholics.
I grab Nel's keys off of the counter top and head to a bar I used to go to often when I needed a drink, like I need one now. It's not too far from Nel's place so it's not that big of a deal. I actually found the drive there to be rather relaxing. But I think anyone would after you just spent three hours with the loudest people you've ever met in your life. I park Nel's beat up Explorer and head inside the bar owed by an old friend of mine. I think she'll be happy to see me. Or at least I hope she is.
I walk up to the bar and sit down. It takes a while for her to notice someone's here. The bar isn't the most popular of places but it's quite and the food is decent.
"Welcome, what can I get for you Mr.…? Grimmjow!?"
"Hey Hal. It's been a while."
"It has. So today was the big day huh?"
"Yeah. It's different outside the cell walls."
"I would imagine." She says as she laughs lowly.
"Sorry I couldn't be there when you got out. How does two drinks on the house sound?"
"Suits me just fine."
"Alright, what will you have?"
"Gimme a Whiskey and Coke on the rocks." I grunt out.
"Coming right up." She says.
"Uh could you make that two please?" I hadn't seen the young man walk inside the bar. He was a strange looking boy but still very attractive. He was probably roughly around 5"11. He had a slim build but I could still make out the form of muscles threw his black V-neck shirt with a white substances on it. And to top it off the kid had orange hair. Orange!
I hadn't realized I was staring at the bright haired young man until he looked down at me, smiled and said,
"You have very pretty eyes." God I think my heart just melted.
A short chapter but that was just to give you a preview of what's to come. I will be updating like crazy today because I have nothing else better to do. I hope you guys enjoyed this new story of mine. Please review and tell me what you think. The next chapter will take place in Ichigo's POV. Thanks for reading. Until next time Bye-Bye!
