Give Em' Hell Kid

Chapter 11: Twilight Falls.

Ghoul stared at the dusty blur racing towards the base. He grabbed his radio."Who's there?" He called into it.

Ghoul's voice over the radio made Party jump and swerve a bit. He straightened out the car before answering," it's me Ghoul. Look I have something to tell you. Meet me out front"

"Okay. How soon do you want me out there?" He asked. He was trying to act like he didn't care, but in truth he really did.

"Now. I can see the diner from where I'm at"

"Ok." Ghoul said and climbed down the ladder from the roof. He goes out the main diner doors and leans against the wall.

Party arrived a minute later in a cloud of dust. He jumped out of the car and walked over to Ghoul," Don't get pissed at me for saying this but," he paused for a second to look Ghoul in the eye," I saw Jessica with Korse back at the neutral market. I only caught the end of their conver..."

"How dare you accuse my wife of cheating. Jessica would never betray me like that. Maybe Lyn would have with you, but not Jessica." Ghoul said with venom in his voice.

Party threw his hands up," Fucking hell Ghoul! You know I wouldn't lie about that kind of thing. Fuck she has messed up your mind so much that she is a saint in your eyes." he gestured towards the road," Where is she then? Hmm? I noticed she's not here"

"That's because she is out on my dirt bike. I can't believe you would stoop so low as to accuse my love of cheating with another man, let alone fucking Korse." Ghoul snapped and threw a fist at Party.

"Still didn't answer my....shit!" He had to duck to avoid Ghoul's fist. Instead of letting himself fall on his butt, he used his energy to tackle Ghoul down," Calm the fuck down!"

Ghoul gasped as he was tackled to the dirt. He tried to throw another punch."You refuse to let me be happy. I guess with you, if you aren't happy, no one is."

Party grabbed his arms and pinned them down," I want you to be happy and she isn't giving you happiness." He leaned closer," I am not lying about her cheating on you."

"I don't believe you. You have nothing to back up this lame story of yours." Ghoul grumbled after struggling for a few minutes.

"Yea like I can just whip out a camera and take a picture" he snapped.

Ghoul glares up at Party."Get off of me. You are heavy." He said.

"Only if you promise not to try and hit me" He sighed.

"Fine." He pouted.

He cautiously let Ghoul go," I am trying to protect you Ghoul" He said climbing to his feet and backing up a step or two.

"By lying to me about my own wife?" He asked as he sat up.

Party sighed again and ran a hand through his red hair," This is something I wouldn't lie about."

"How can I trust you?" He snaps.

"You know what.....go ahead and believe she is a goody goody. I'm not gonna save you again," he spat in his face," Oh look. I hear her pulling up." he shoved past Ghoul to head inside.

Ghoul looked at Party in surprise. He gets up and heads toward where he heard Jessica pulling in.

Jessica stopped the dirt bike and pulled off her helmet," Hey baby" she called over to Ghoul.

Ghoul walked over to her and hugged her."Babe, you would tell me if you seeing another guy right?"

"Now why would I see another guy? I'm married to you silly" She said with a smile. Someone must have seen her and Korse at the market and she knew who," Is Party telling lies about me again?" she put on a hurt tone as she asked this.
