My Niece's Teacher

CHAPTER 7: Alone At The Movies

DEUCE

During the open house, I felt a little weird cause I haven't been in a classroom since I was a kid.

The moment I walked into the classroom, I suddenly felt as nervous as you get on your first day of school. Which I'm used to stares, especially from women but this one made me feel a little out of place when the guys looked at me as though they might be pissed. Then again I wouldn't care. I'm here for Paige.

Then after Paige took me around the class to show me her art work and other things she has done so far, I felt in a way like a dad.

Then the dads and husbands there all started to talk to me and they all seemed cool. Meanwhile, a lot of the women were looking at me and adjusting their wardrobes a little bit cause of course they were trying hard to get my attention and flirt, however, that stuff makes me laugh.

I saw Brooke and she looked beautiful. Not that she never looked good but it looked like she dressed up a little bit rather than just wearing jeans and a shirt.

She then asked for everyone to sit down and that she had a few announcements.

The field trip and carnival sounded both good and I knew that Paige would want me to go so before we left, I signed up and when I told her, she was excited. She was even more excited too when I mentioned Angela and Frank was coming to stay with us for awhile. There was an issue at the clubhouse and since I hadn't made up my mind yet about if I was staying or leaving, I just went ahead and told him to come down here and we can figure something out.

Frank had messaged me this morning telling me that we needed to change tactics soon to ensure that our suppliers and customers are guaranteed protection just as they protect us.

There's this whole complication going on because recently an old friend, now enemy, has decided to try and be brave by playing dirty. Meaning he has been trying to steal my clients since I am partners with the best suppliers and customers you can ever do business with.

This little prick is a few years younger than me and has been trying to take me out for a couple years now but has been unsuccessful and has made me regret ever taking pity on him when his father (who also was my dad's best friend) died and he took his place. It was more of a favor to my dad that I promised I would keep before he died. I helped get noticed more.

The biggest issue we have with him is the fact that he loves power and doesn't care what he has to do or who he has to kill to get to my level.

One of the things that piss me off the most is he is 'messy'. Meaning that he brings too much attention to the 'business' we do.

Of course it's not abnormal for me to be someone's target and them wanting to take me out. However with this guy, Drake. He is gonna fuck up badly and from what Frank told me this morning about what's going on, it seems as though Drake has already made me lose a few good partners of mine.

Right now though I can't think about anything else but Paige.

I really do wish, especially in times like this, that I had a regular job. A job where she never had to worry. A better life that didn't involve drugs, weapons and violence.

I know that it isn't the ideal kind of a life but I refuse to give her up for adoption or anything like that. So when Frank and Angela get here, hopefully they can help me decide what to do in rather or not we should stay or go.

*****************************************

Angela and Frank have been here now for a week and after seeing how much closer Angela and Brooke are getting with their friendship, it kind of bothers me in a way.

Tonight was a Wednesday and after being stressed out from everything me and Frank have been talking about and planning, I decided that I needed to get some air.

So I went into town and at first hit the bar, which was now not as crowded and was filled with more of the locals and not so many bikers. I ordered a drink but didn't stay too long seeing how it was boring as hell.

Then as I start walking down towards my bike that I parked at a curb, I saw Brooke. She looked to be walking by herself and stopped at the movie theater and walked in.

Suddenly I began wondering if rather or not she was on a date or meeting up with her friend?

As soon as she walked inside, I decided to head in and see what was going on.

Right as I walked inside, I saw her standing in line and then ordering a drink and a snack.

The next thing she did, I waited to see her walk up towards the guy who collects the tickets and after the girl scans what's on her phone, the girl says, "Theater 2 on your left is where your movie will be playing and enjoy your movie." She smiles and Brooke begins walking towards the theater.

I took a quick look on the screen above the door she was entering and quickly got on my phone to purchase a ticket quickly then walked up to the girl and as she scanned my ticket, she also told me her number. Which I just rolled my eyes and headed towards theater 2.

When I got in there, luckily the previews hadn't even started so there were still lights on for you to see where you were going.

I spot her up near top row. Which I begin walking up and notice that there is no one sitting next to her. So I take this opportunity to have some fun with her.

When halfway up the stairs, I see she's looking down at her phone and the movie is about to start when I realize that she is alone? Did she get stood up or does she come alone? Nah, I'm sure she doesn't come alone. No one does that, it's too sad.

I take a seat in the middle row and luckily she never see's me. Although I do feel bad and start thinking if maybe I should go up and sit with her. But I'm sure she would probably throw her soda on me or something. In which I wouldn't blame her.

What the hell is going on with me? What is she doing to me in making me care and think about her?
