Chapter 11

The story of Warren Montgomery

“How was your study date?” Mike asked as he iced his shoulder while he was lying on the couch. ‘You two look in to be in high spirits.”

“Well I’d say we fared better than you did.” Jen walked to the couch and sat on the edge. She gently lifted the bag of ice off of Mike’s shoulder. “You ok?”

“Yeah just sore.” He flinched as Jen sat the ice back down a little rougher than desired.

“Sorry.” She said with a frown.

“It’s ok.” He reached up and adjusted the ice pack. “Just a rough day at practice. Freshman got a little over zealous and I went down on my shoulder.”

“I bet coach was pissed.”

Mike smiled, laughed then immediately grimaced from the pain. “Yeah I think he is still running laps.”

“That is a bit much.” Jen said as she gave him a questionable look.

“Hey not my rules babe… Besides he has to learn somehow not to hit the guy in the bright orange shirt.” Mike gingerly sat himself up a little. “Enough about my day you two looked excited about something.”

Jen’s face immediately lit up. “Yes we are. I don’t know how she did it but Tracy the miracle worker got the entire story on Warren Montgomery.”

“Who?” Mike asked.

“You’ll find out when you read the journal entries, but it won’t hurt you to listen to this.” Jen turned around and saw Tracy still standing near the front door. “Trace what are you doing?”

“Nothing.” She said in a soft voice.

Jen shook her head. “Come sit down.”

“Ok” Tracy slowly walked over and sat in the chair that was adjacent to the arm of the couch that Mike had his head at. It was obvious that Tracy wasn’t yet comfortable in these surroundings yet.

“Ok so like I was saying Trace dug up some crazy details about him and you wouldn’t believe the stuff that went on in that house.”

“I’m liking it already.” Mike said with a sly smile. “So let’s hear it.”

“Go ahead Trace.” Jen said as she looked up at her.

“Me?”

“Yeah why not?” Jen asked with a smile. “You found it all and you told me about it so would probably be better coming from you.

“Oh… Ok.” Tracy began to rummage through her papers she had sitting on her lap. “Just a sec.” She finally pulled out three pieces of notebook paper that had hand writing written all over it. ‘Here they are.”

“Anyone want a drink or anything before we start?” Jen asked

“No I’m good.” Mike answered.

Tracy shook her head. “No thank you.”

“Ok just wanted to make sure.” Jen situated herself so she was gingerly lying across Mike’s lap. “This ok?”

“Yeah.”

“Ok just wanted to check.” Jen looked up to Tracy. “I’ll stop interrupting now.” She said with a smile.

“Ok… So as I was telling you earlier.” She nodded at Jen. ‘This goes way back and none of it is documented so I can’t guarantee it is real, but I would bet it was. I trust the person who helped me and they have never let me down with their info.” She pulled out another sheet of paper and sat it down on the coffee table. It was an old black and white photo of Wes’s house. “This is the house right?”
