Never Got To Say Goodbye

Chapter 16

It was my first full meeting. I told Dr.Baitz everything, I told him about Cory, the bullying I went through ( I left out the part about Mikey calling me names though I thought it didn't matter anymore), I told him about Donavan and his boyfriend, I told him about the baby and even how I'm thinking the bartender drug me. Yeah I forgot to mention that Mikey wouldn't let me got out anywhere without him. So I couldn't go hunt down that damn bartender. Oh but if Mikey did let me he would have had to watch out because I'm after him.

Anyway when I mentioned the whole situation, Mr.Baitz called Rocky and told him to cancel the rest of his meetings for the day. It was only 9 o'clock now, because I asked to have earlier meeting, but what was he going to do?

He said to call everyone that was at the bar that night with me and tell them to meet us there. I scrabbled in my small book-bag to find my phone and I texted and called everyone who was there that night. They all agreed to meet even Makenna's friend from her new school.

We got there and I saw Mikey first when I got out of Mr. Baitz tan BMW. He tried to scare me but I saw him duck down in the rear view mirror. Baitz saw it too so he had the scary clown mask from Halloween and I put it on right as I opened the door. I peaked out the car and said in a scary, raspy, voice,"Hello my little friend!"

Mikey's eyes got as wide as they could and he fell backwards from his spot then crab walked backwards and little then jumped up and ran into Mr.Baitz. Who had on another creepy mask and he was scaring Mikey more. I laughed a little because I saw Makenna had her phone recording the whole thing. I hugged Mikey from behind and said in my normal voice but still trough the mask," it's okay babe"-I ripped the mask off-"I'll protect you."

Mikey just stood still for a second shaking his head and rolling his eyes. A split second later we all fell to the ground laughing! No one could breathe until Baitz said, "please tell me someone got that recorded."  Makenna raised her hand but she was still bend over laughing.

I butted in and said,"then we have to watch it!" Everyone except Mikey agreed but we still watched it. We had laughed our asses off I mean that shit was funny. I felt someone tap my shoulder and say,"what are we laughing about?" It was Carson and he had saw me and then went to Makenna.

"They're laughing at me..."Mikey said with and annoyed face. I kissed his cheek,"better?" He blushed, "No. Not until I get to kiss yours." And he slapped my ass. And I back-hand slapped his chest and he caught my fist before I could punch him too. So I took my other hand and pushed him.

We faced Mr.Baitz, Makenna, and Carson. While those two were taking selfies, Mr.Baitz and Mikey were looking through my phone to find any pictures or anything to lead us to a guy. I was lost in thought when I remembered that Makenna and I took a selfie with the bartender on her phone.

"Makenna give me your phone!"
"No why?"
"I need it let me see it!"
"Fine." She handed it to me and I hit on her gallery app. And scrolled through the selfies, screenshots, and videos until I got to the one I needed.

I showed Mr.Baitz and Mikey,"here! Here! I got one!"
"Alright, let's go in." Mr.Baitz said

I took a deep breath and opened the old wooden doors to the bar called Mickey's Clubhouse.
I looked to my left and there was a biker gang from the south side of town and to my right there was and bar fight starting up and a couple guys arm wrestling. Straight ahead of me there was an couple girls dancing to the music on the dance floor.Which it was kinda weird but I looked at the neon lit clock that stated that it was 6 o'clock. Yeah I mean It was Carson and Makenna's decision to tell us where to go that night and yes the bar was 6 hours away. We didn't leave the office until 12 and then we got food but anyway.

We saw one of the bartenders that was around the same night we came. We walked over to him,
"Hello guys, what can I get you."
"Actually we just want to ask you a few questions."
"Well I have break in 10 minutes and you can ask me then."
"Ok. Sure."
"Alright well in the meantime what can I get you guys?"

Five minutes later all our drinks were brought to us. The bartender left to go give the girls that we're on the dance floor their drinks before he came back over.

"Alright ask away."

"Thanks. First do you know this guy", I showed him the picture,"he was here around a month ago and was our bartender?"

"Yeah that's James. He only started working like three days before you guys came in."

"Does he still work here?" Makenna asked.

"No, he said he came here to do his job and was now finished and he didn't need to work here that he did his duty."
Mikey snickered.
"Oh real mature Michael." Dr.Baitz said
Mikey rolled his eyes and took a sip of his soda.

"Why are you all looking for him anyway?"
The bartender ask suspiciously.

"He drugged my fiancé." Mikey said in a low raspy voice and then clenched his teeth.

Mikey walked over to me and wrapped his arms around my neck and kissed the top of my head all protectively. The bartender's green eyes grew wide.

"He made her body react to the drug as if she was pregnant. She had all the symptoms of a pregnancy, but he drugged her and she was never was. It took around a month for doctors to realize that there was nothing there and she had to get her stomach pumped and take blood tests until everything was was out." Mikey had two tears fall from his eyes. He took his arms off of me," excuse me." He left out the wooden door and when out to the car.

"Makenna can you find out-" I tried to say.
"More. Yeah go." Makenna said.

I got up and ran out to the car. Mikey was bawling and had his hands running through his hair as his knees were up to his chest. He kick and punched the dash. He looked out the window and saw me and rolled his eyes at himself and looked away. I opened the door to the car.

"Baby." I touched my hand to his cheek.
Mikey put his hand up to mine. He was sobbing lightly. It made me sad to see him like this. It wasn't like him to get so upset about something. I didn't realize seeing him cry would make me cry.

"A-awe baby. Don't cry it's ok. I'm okay, baby I'm fine you don't need to get upset anymore." I told him trying not to cry.

"B-b-but I d-didn't p-prot-tect you like I should've and...I'm t-the worse boyfriend y-you could e-ever have and n-now your gonna go f-find some r-rich and h-handsome guy th-that d-deserves you m-more than me-e and move i-in with him and l-leave me and-"

I wiped his tears away," I'm not gonna leave you. I love you and you are doing a lot with helping me find this guy and no one knew what he was gonna do. Babe you didn't do anything wrong okay I'm in love with you and I'm not gonna leave ever. Plus I loved how you called me your fiancé."
He gave a small smile, I took his head into my chest and hugged it tightly like he was my teddy bear. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close,"I'm tired." I gave a little chuckle.

"Okay do you wanna lie down for a little."
"Can we please?" I smiled and let Mikey get in the back of the car before me. He put his head on my lap and fell asleep instantly.

I texted Makenna and told her that Mikey was sleeping so I was gonna stay in the car with him. She told me that there's a lot that I need to know about the "big bad guy" (her words). I can't wait until we catch this guy. He had his turn causing my family and friends to get upset.

Once we find this guy I hope he goes to hell.
