Chapter Nineteen
Joey and Allen were upstairs for a good long while.I wonder what they were doing?
*Joey's POV*
"Allen!!!" Mandie screamed.
I figured I'd show Allen how much I cared for her by getting his bags.It showed that I treated him like family already,even though we never spent time together.When I came in I gave Mandie a smile and then sat his bags down.They were looking at me like I had grown another head. I was about to ask her why when Allen spoke up.
"Who's this.... Is this ol Nohlan?" he asked while shaking my hand.
When I looked up at Allen his smile fell and his face and eyes were now hard and cold and very serious. If looks could kill I'd surly be dead. His facial expression said exactly what I'd hoped it said.'Hurt her nd I'll torture you then kill you with just my hands'.I chuckled to myself as I thought about how serious he was when he doesn't even know the half. She doesn't even like me!
Even though I kind of found it funny I respected him .I mean seriously he just basically said that he was going to take my life! He was also a few inches taller than me and that says alot because Im almost six feet! He was also in an Army College which made what he said just a little more possible.He stuided while doing whatever Marines do.
I walked with him to go to his old room.He had six total bags.I wonder how long he was going to be staying. Maybe that's a question he should ask me. Oh no! What if he wanted me to leave?Where would I go?I was looking at the bags and picked one up that looked like it didn't weigh much but I was so wrong! It was so heavy I wonder what was in there!
We sat all the bags down and it started getting awkard until....
"Are you still in love with Ami?"
WHAT THE F***?! How did he know? And did he just say 'still'? I was so speechless. Even though there was a part of me that expected that,I was still very shocked about how straight-foward with it.What am I suppose to say?
"It's okay you don't have to answer that" He said still very calmly.
"How'd you know?"I asked scared of what the answer might be.
"Really do you think Adam would've did that?"he reasoned out.
"What?"
"Help me with my bags?"
"Well no considering he's the one who broke her heart"
"He what?" He said cracking his knuckles.
"No disrepect man but I already handled it. I wouldnt mention it to her, what I just told you considering she said she hasn't been this happy since your Dad ....left, so..." I said trying to calm him.
"Alright fine.How bad did you beat him?"He said with amusment on his face.
"Well let's just say that I was in jail for at least seven hours" I partly lied to satify his anger.
"Oh yeah!" He pretended to laugh "Don't let it happen again!Y ou shoudn't go around kicking peoples butt! And getting thrown in jail insn't what she needs to see you doing. You're better than that."
"Okay sorry! D****! Let's go before she thinks that we're talking about her and comes up here"
I was not far behind him as I thought; What if he didn’t know about his Dad yet! What the Heck was I thinking? Oh right I wasn’t!
