Torn Apart

Chapter 4

There was a huge line outside of the club when we arrived. Nikki parked the car in a safe area and then we headed to the front door, where Juicy was waiting for us. I felt my heart pounding when my eyes laid on the man I had seen earlier. He was nicely dressed in an all-black t-shirt, blue jeans and a silver chain around his neck. He had his arms folded across his chest and that same charming smile on his face. Matt was with him too, wearing a white beater blue jeans with a black belt, and white tennis shoes.

"Damn Juicy, it's so crowded!" I said when we got to him.

Juicy laughed, "Yeah but we're the first ones going in Okay?"

"Okay!" Nikki and I said before glancing at Matt and his friend.

"Now I met Matt earlier….but I didn't quite catch your name." I said as I put out my hand.

The guy smiled and took my hand into his own and kissed it, "I'm Phil…and it's a pleasure to meet you."

I smiled and glanced at Juicy, "I'm Krissy and this is Natalie…Juicy didn't tell me you were such a cutie."

He shrugged, "Well he never does tell the women the whole story about me."

Juicy flipped his bangs, "Bitch please you can talk for yourself."

We all laughed before the bouncer let us enter the club. It was a very large space with different colored lights and fog machines. The guys led us to the VIP section where we had our own personal bottle of Tequila on ice. Juicy went to the bar and got us some glasses while we took our seats on the sofas.

"So, you ladies go out often?" Phil asked.

Nikki and I shook our heads simultaneously, "No."

"That surprises me," Matt said. "I took Natalie to be a party girl."

She chuckled, "Why do you say that?"

He shrugged, "I don't know…you kind of remind me of this girl my brother use to date."

"What was your brother's name?" I asked.

"Jeff...Hardy" He answered with a sigh.

Nikki nearly spit up her drink, "Jeff Hardy?"

"Yeah, do you know him?" He asked.

Nikki looked at me puzzled and then cleared her throat, "Excuse us, we've got to go to the little girls room."

I followed her lead, leaving a confused Matt behind. When we got to the bathroom, Nikki let out a huge sigh, "Kat, I'm so confused right now,"

"About how your sibling doesn't recognize you?" I asked.

She shook her head, "That's just the thing... We don't have a brother named Matt... as far as I know... "

I folded my arms, "Well he seems to know a lot about Jeff and the gang he was involved in... you may have to all him more questions."

"Yeah but how do we know he isn't lying just to get us to blow our covers?" She asked as she began pacing. 

"To be fair,  we risked blowing our covers the second we came out tonight." I told her.  "Look we've got to ask as many questions as possible in order to stat safe."
