I won't share you

Dance of the fools

Johnny finally came back to work at the diner. Our usual routine falling back into place. The only difference now was Angie started coming to the diner more often. Along with that Andy and Mike's gang got a few more faces. Andy was good with making friends. I sat with them whenever Johnny was busy. Andy would always greet me with a smile that he would quickly tuck away out of embarrassment.
Today was an especially rainy day. I sat next to Craig and Stephen(Street). Dale Hibbert was an interesting fellow. He was new to the gang. Mike liked to mess with him. He was sat on the other side of Stephen. It was cramped sitting arrangement. Mike and Andy sat close together on the other side. The sun that shined through the diner window lit up our faces making. It made Andy's hair glowed like a halo.
"Hello mates." Johnny said as he made his way to our table. He looked to me and winked. I looked down to the Formica table top. My face had heated up and I didn't need to hear the the gang would say about it. Everyone's looked over at Johnny in excitement.
"Hey Johnny!" Said Stephen,his face seemed content.
  "The guys and I were talking about maybe going for a ride. You in?" Andy asked. Johnny thought for a minute.
  "I don't have s bike, so I don't know how that would work out." Andy nodded.
  "What if you used mine and I rode with Mike and uh... Mozzer rode with you?" The suggestion ran through Johnny's mined. He tapped on the table as he decided. He smiled.
  "Sure why not. How about Moz?" In the heat of the moment I agreed. Everyone made an agreed sound. The sound of vinyl squeaking ensued the group standing up. We made our way out side. The sun was just starting to set, making the world lit by a soft glow of orange.  Wind flipped my hair around.
  "Oi! Pretty boy over here!" I turned to see Johnny on what assumed to be Andy's motorcycle. I walked over. "Hop on." Johnny said with a wink. I looked over to Mike and Andy. Mike sat in the front while Andy sat in the back hugging Mike from behind.(I early had over heard them arguing about who would drive. It looked like Mike won.)
  "Okay." I say behind Johnny. I had to remind myself. You won't die. You won't die. It's fine don't worry. I gripped to Johnny's side. "You know how to drive this thing right?"Johnny laughed. He pushed up his sunglasses.
  "Don't worry. I got you." He started the engine on impulse my gripped tightened. We pulled out of the parking lot. The sound of the engine filled my ears. All of the sudden loud shouts of joy were heard. I turned my head to see Andy. He had a smile on his face. He held Mike tight. Mike slowly smirked. I turned back around laughing. I put my head to Johnny's back wrapping my arms around his waist. They turned a shape corner down an alley way than stopped. I sat up.
"What's wrong? Why did we stop?" I said looking to Johnny. Mike and Andy pulled up next to us.
"Them." I heard Andy say. Moving his head to gesture in front of us. I looked to see a gang of guys at the other end of the alley.
"Hey Andy, haven't see you in a while!" One of them called.
"Liam what the fuck are you doing here!" Mike yelled across the space. The stench of garbage and piss was all around.
"I think you fucking know why!" Andy's face grew dark.
"Fuck off and leave us alone!" Stephen shouted. Liam laughed.
"Andy tell your girlfriends to shut up! It's time to pay up!" Andy looked to Mike desperately. "I'll ask one more time!" Gallagher said.
"Shove it up yours Liam!" Stephen yelled. He hopped off his bike. We followed in pursuit. Johnny held my hand hiding it behind his back. He whispered something to me so I could only hear.
"Moz, listen to me. Things are about to get really hairy. I'm here for you okay. Stay right next to me unless I tell you other wise. Got it?" He asked. I struck me as to what was about to happen.
"Alright." I said trying not to sound scared. He squeezed me hand. Liam's voice was heard louder than before.
"Andy do you give up or do we have to fight?!" He shouted. Andy stepped forward.
  "I guess we have to fight asshole!" Everyone was jumping off there bikes. From what I could see was some one similar looking to Liam say something to him.
"Noel, if you don't want to fight than leave. But you won't stop me." He said to whom I guessed was Noel.
  Before I knew it. Fists were flying at faces. The sound of angry yelling and shoes scuffing in pavement filled the air, and I. I couldn't do a anything. I stood there useless. I had lost Johnny in the crowed my eyes searched for him, then there was a gun shot. Mike's vice ripped the through the crowed.
  "ANDY!!!" Everyone froze. I pushed through everyone to see... Mike holding. He was holding Andy. Blood went into the rain water around them. Johnny dashed over. His face messed up. Mike sat with Andy in his arms rocking him. Andy smiled and and looked him in the eyes. "Andy, Andy baby it's going to be alright. I'm right here. " he creased his cheek. Andy put his hand on Mike's.
  "I know. I know cause I'm here with you." He coughed. Blood made it's way from his mouth.
  "Shit Andy. I don't-I don't  know how to help."  He said. Tears rushed down his face. "Andy please,please don't leave me." Andy put his other hand on Mike's face.
  "Mike, Mike please don't cry. Promise me you won't cry." He said a tear fell from his eye.
  "You know I can't promise that." He said wearily smiling. Andy's eyes started to fade.
  "I-I*cough* I love you Mike." He said. Mike smiled.
" I love you too." Mike leaned down and kissed Andy softly. When he pulled away...Andy was gone. His eyes welled up. Johnny turned to the culprit. Liam stood there an evil smirk on his face. But something was off. Next to him stood Noel shaking as he held...a gun. Anger welled up inside me.
  "You asshole!!!!!" Johnny yelled. His eyes were filled with tears. "You were fucking friends!" Noel's face contorted in to horror. He dropped the gun. He fell slowly to his knees. Liam's face masked the inner pain he felt. "You were one of us till you fucking ran to Hectors feet! You left us Liam! We didn't get rid of you! You brought this upon yourself!" Johnny screamed the words. The tore like knives through Liam. His eyes started to water.
  "I had no other fucking choice Johnny!! He said-he said if I didn't join him he would hurt the lot of you!!" He looked to Mike. "I didn't want this to happen." He voice settled down. His face showed his true emotion. He pulled up Liam by his arm. "We're leaving now. Sorry Johnny" his gang hopped onto their bikes and drove off.
  Johnny fell to his knees crying. The rest of the gang stood around Mike and ..Andy. His face held a smile. Mike sobbed. I bent down next to Johnny. I rapped an arm around his shoulder. I could hear sniffs and sobs from everyone. Craig was the loudest.

  A funeral was held for Andy. It was sunny. People I didn't even know showed up. It proved how many friends Andy truly had. Mike stood with weary eyes. They were dark. They looked like great shadows. Johnny clung to me. He wasn't wearing shades so you could see all the nights he went through with out sleep. I myself was finding it hard to keep composer. The rest of gang stood silently. Craig broke down. Stephen put a friendly arm around his shoulder. I could hear him whisper.
  "It-its going to be okay kid. It's going to be alright." He didn't sound to sure. I didn't ether. Even though we hadn't seen Hectors gang of rude  decibels, we were still worried about what will happen next.
