The Bet

Chapter 21

"Joy. I am sorry but I don't like you like that. I have feelings for Patricia." Eddie said.

I looked at him. I can't believe that it is true. Did he really say that. Joy just looked at him. Then she looked at me.

"Really?" I said.

"Yeah. Really." He said looking at me. Then you heard footsteps and we both looked from each other and saw Joy gone. I looked at Jerome and smiled. I have to talk to Jerome later about the bet and why he has that weird smile on this face.

*Eddie POV*

We looked for each other and saw that Joy was gone. No offence. I am happy that she was gone. Now I can do something I wanted to do a while now.

"Patrica." I said to get her looked at me.

"Yes." She said looking at me.

"Will you go out with me?" I asked her.

"Yes. I would." She said to me.

I looked over to Jerome who was standing there for the whole thing. He witnessed me winning the bet. I have to talk to him about it. I hope Patricia won't get mad at me if she finds out it was a bet.

*Jerome's POV*

I stood there watching what I wanted to happen. Finally happening. I got them together. The plan worked. The bets helped them get together.

"So can we now join the others downstairs?" I asked them.

"Yeah. I will be right there." Trixie said to us.

"Okay." Eddie said walking out of the door. "Coming Jerome?" He looked at me.

"Be right there. I have to talk to Trixie for a minute alone." I said to Eddie. I know they both want to talk to me. But I would rather talk to Patricia first. It is the easiest. Eddie just shrugged his shoulders and walked back downstairs.

"What is it you want to talk about?" She asked me.

"You know what. I know you want to talk about the bet." I said to him.

"Yes. So is it over or not?" She asked me.

"It is over. You won. You did it." I said to her.

"Yes. I won." She said getting up and smiling. Then we headed downstairs. I have to talk to Eddie later. The bet with him is different. If he doesn't take care of this soon it can ruin everything.

*Patricia's POV*

It has been a long time since Eddie asked me out. I am so happy together. He makes me so happy. We have been together since then.

I sitting there on the coach doing some homework.

"Wow Yacker doing homework. I thought you were a bad ass." Eddie said looking at me.

"Well. I am but my parents will kill me if I don't do it." I said to him.

"Yeah I bet." He said.

"I am surprised your father hasn't killed you yet." I said to him. Through the time we were together. Everyone found out that Eddie was Mr. Sweet's son.

"He is. So I do it when I can. But right now I not." He said.

"Yeah. What is it you want?" I asked him.

"I was looking for Jerome. I really need to talk to him. I just thought he was going to be with you." He said to me.

"You could see that he is not with me. Even though he is my brother. We are not always together." I said smiling at him.

"Okay. Do you know where he is?" He asked me.

"No. Try his room. What is it you need to talk to him about?" I asked him.

"Don't worry about it. I will talk to you later." He said giving me a kiss on my head and walked away.

*Eddie's POV*

I walked to Jerome's room. I knocked on the door. Waiting for a response. I really need to talk to him. I haven't talk to him about the bet yet. So this is really important.

"Enter." I heard someone yelled. I opened the door to see Jerome on his bed.

"Hey man. We need to talk." I said entering.

"About?" He asked me.

"You know what about. So is it over?" I asked him.

"Eddie, it is....."
