[845] Can't Be Whistled Away

Hi All, This is an excerpt from chapter 22 of my current project. Please keep in mind 21 chapters came before this, so there isn't much here as far as character introduction, etc. Everyone has already been introduced. But, for context, Jeremy is the main character. He is 17 and lives with Dave (early 30s) who is a father figure but not related. Mike and Geri are his parents. Jodi is his older sister. Jarrett and K are two friends who were murdered in the last year (drug related.) Gerti is the owner of the dive bar behind where they live (The Gemini.) Whistler is a drug dealer that Jeremy has this weird fascination with.

This chapter takes place after Jeremy was forced to help Dave commit a crime. They fought, and Dave made him take a sleeping pill. So, this gives some context. Now everyone has a reference for who these people are and what led up to this.
