I am Widow

Chapter 23

I see the familiar house again. I see the guys walking towards the door, "come on," Jessica says.

I quickly run to the door and rush in. I hate the cold weather.

Everybody puts their jackets and scarfs on the floor, "Alright guys, you wanna hang in my room? Or we can go to the basement?" Jackson asks.

We decide to go to the basement. It doesn't look like a basement! I thought I will see brown couch and boxes stocked up, but Jackson's basement is like a room!

It is as big as a living room. It has a TV, arcade games, a pool table and a long banana red couch in the center of the room. It's pretty simple yet pretty cool for a basement.

"It's not done yet but we can have some fun," Jackson says.

We start playing and I spend my time playing against Jackson, while Paul teases Jessica.

"I'm hungry. Jack you don't have any hotdogs?" Paul asks.

"Oh me want some!" Jessica exclaims.

"Fine. Let me get some, who wants to come and help out?" No one answers to Jackson. "Fine, I go," Jessica says. I see them race upstairs, leaving me with Paul.

He sits on top of the pool table, "He isn't mad at me anymore."

"yeah I can see that. What did he tell you?"

"Just, that next time if I ever use you like that, I will have a broken nose and mouth and face and other stuff."

"did he really tell you that?" I ask in disbelieve.

"Well, no but he implied it. He just told me that I shouldn't use girls like that and to be straight with him." He lightly smiles, "It's okay Wid. Everything is back to normal, well kind of."

"So is everything cool between you guys now?"

"Like I said, yes even though I feel some distrust, it ain't something we cant fix."

"Good," I smile lightly.

As we wait for Jessica and Jackson to come back, we decided to look for a movie.

"How about Iron Man 2?" Paul asks.

"Not into superhero stuff."

He just shrugs and keeps looking. Cheese, Jackson has like every movie made in the world in his basement!

"oh you gotta love this, Scary Movie," Paul says.

"I don't know."

"Oh! Come on Wid! This a classic 21st century comedy and besides what else is funnier than this?"

"This," I say as I show Knocked Up. "I love this movie. It's hilarious and everything with Seth Rogen is awesome."

"Hhmm, okay. Let the others decide."

At the end of Paul's sentence comes the smell of hot dogs.

"Okay, we're back!" Jessica exclaims.

Jackson follows behind her and smiles at me. We all grab our plates and the final choice is: Knocked Up.

The movie begins with the introduction of the characters: Allison and Ben. They met at a night club, and decide to hook up.

We all finish eating by the time they decide to do it. I hear Paul chuckling with Jessica while Jackson seems to be grossed out. (Ben is not the ideal man with a great body, so.)

"You okay?" I whisper.

"Yeah."

"You sure?"
