"Okay, well be prepared to hear the word no, again." Gregory shrugged. This time it's going to be louder, he mused. They set out as Gregory knew exactly where Erick would be at this time.

-In the parking lot

In the parking lot sat an old, beat up lime green Gauntlet. On the hood Erick sat, smoking away at a cigarette before discarding it to the concrete and adding his foot as the final directive. He looked over to his right to see Gregory accompanied by the others from earlier. "What the hell is this?"

"I know you said you weren't interested but I wanted to extend another invitation to the band." Gregory said, this time taking a more cordial approach.

"What part of no don't you understand?"

"Come on, dude. You were super excited last time you were in a band and now you don't want to?" Gregory made a point of bringing up the past in hopes that it would soften Erick up, but his face remained cold, and impassive. His eyes studied the others, looking for weaknesses should he need to defend himself. Gregory knew this look, this was the look of someone who had been failed for much of his life and distrusted all around him and had to always maintain a defensive posture in the case of attack.

"No one here is after you." Gregory stated.

"Why do you guys even want me?" Erick asked, tilting his head to the side as his eyes scanned over them suspiciously.
