Love and Revenge

Chapter 8

Jake's POV

I look at how many bullets I have in my pistols and I count five each. I throw some ammo in my shorts and then look towards Jade who's currently sleeping. I write a note and tape it to the door before I walk into the hallway. It's been a week since Dirk and Dave left and there's been no sign of them even getting in contact with us. I am actually starting to get worried, just because of Jade though. I know she loves him and I can tell Dave loves her too. I'm worried something happened and if Dave doesn't come back, it would break Jade's heart. I'm going to go look for them. For Jade. And maybe dirk. I grab my gear and close the door behind me. I overheard the brothers talking about a casino so that's where I'm heading.

I find the casino in less time than I thought it would take. I then feel someone's hand touch my shoulder and I jump and scream. I turn around to see Jade laughing her ass off, of course it would be her.

"What the hell are you doing here?"

"I want to help and you can't say no because if you do I'll still come with." She crosses her arms and looks up at the sign above the casino and raises an eyebrow. "The Bone Zone?"

I sigh. "You don't want to know Jade."

She shrugs and we head in. I see the place is a strip club and I wouldn't have suspected less, by the name of the place it's obvious. Although I do see a bar and some gambling machines so I guess you could call this a casino. I look to Jade who's quite shocked. I wish she hadn't come along, she shouldn't be in these places.

I see a doorway to a carpeted area and I nudge her a bit to the side. I'm guessing it's a lobby, this thing must be a hotel too and the brothers probably booked a room.

Jade sits in a chair and I go up to the receptionist.

"Hello there, are you booking a room?"

"No, I'm actually looking for a couple of friends of mine. They're brothers, one's a bit older though, they probably booked a room. They would've been wearing weird sunglasses and one of them has spiky hair."

"Oh I know those two. Well I can tell you the spiky haired one is at the bar and the other took the elevator up." Have they just been sitting around doing nothing this whole time?! I frown and then regain a smile.

"Could you tell me the room number please?"

"Of course." She types into her computer and then clicks a few times with the mouse, after a minute she smiles at me. "Room 413. Will that be all?"

"Yes, thank you."

I walk back over to Jade and she gets up from the chair. "We're going to go find Dirk, group at their room and then we're leaving."

"Fine with me."

I walk through a bunch of people, Jade following behind, and we manage to get to the bar. I look around and spot the idiot. I tap him on the shoulder and he turns around looking at me with this goofy smile on his face.

"Jakey! Heeeeey." I can smell alcohol on him. Also by the way he's acting I can tell he's drunk.

"Dirk, stand up, we're leaving."

"Aw come on Jake just stay and have a few drinks!" He sits me down in a chair next to him and I roll my eyes.

"Dirk I'm not drinking. Now come on, we need to get Dave. Jade's been worried about you guys."

"You're the one who's been worrying Jake." Jade sits down with us.

"Jade shut up." I say as Dirk looks to Jade then back to me.

"You brought Jade along with you?"

"She brought herself, she wanted to help."

"Help with what?"

"You guys disappear for a whole week. We got no contact from you saying that you've been okay and I- Jade got worried for you two and so I went out to find you, Jade just decided to come along."

Dirk frowns for a second then grins. "Come on guys." He pulls us to their hotel room and it's a mess, bottles of liquor scatter the floor in vast amounts.

"DAVE! Jade's here! " Dirk suddenly yells.

Dave waddles from the other room with a drink in hand. Have they been like this the whole week?

"JAADEY!" He yells and tackles Jade in a loving embrace.

"Jakey come on let's dance! But first have a drink!" Dirk yells and shoves a drink into my hand. "MERRY SHITMAS EVERYBODY!! DRINK!" Dirk screams and then takes a swig of his beverage and Dave does the same. Dirk at me and pouts."One drink won't kill you Jake."

We're obviously not leaving tonight like this so I guess one sip won't hurt. I take a small sip and then a very large one.
