A Hurricane Of Fucking Lies, chapter 22
"I'm not moving mom, i'm a football star, I have to stay here, at least for the end of the season!" whined Chris, who proceed to cross is arms in anger. Ashley stared at her mother with a blank expression, if she choose to move, she would leave Joey forever, but if she didn't, she would live with her asshole father. God, she was not in a good emtional state to answer this question.
"Don't worry, Chris, or Ashley for that matter, me and your father still need to legally seprate and deal with lawyers and junk like that, i'm just saying, we may be moving to Maine, where your grandmother lives," explained Tara, sadly. She knew this would ruin her kids lives, and that was the last thing she ever wanted to do.
"Mom, can't you just try to find a house here, or can't I live with someone else?" asked Ashley, her eyes filled with worry.
"I could try to find a house here, but the market right now sucks, Ash. I could very well let you live with someone, but Cassie's parents are already filled to the rim in that house, Cassie has 5 brothers. And no, you can not live with Billie Joe, I don't trust you with Joey. I mean he's a nice boy, but god, you had sex with him, how am I supposed to know what you'll do. So that's my answer," Tara said, "Now come along Chris, your sister needs her rest." Chris and Tara left Ashley with a mind filled with questions. Should she move with her mom? Beg Cassie? How could she tell Joey? "Oh god." she said out loud, and let her mind drift her away to sleep.
Adrienne and Billie Joe hugged for the longest time, letting their minds think of the long road to recovery Joey had to face.
"Should we go tell Joey the good news, and maybe indrouce him to his sister?" asked Billie Joe, smiling at Adie.
"That might be good, but before we do that, I have a question to ask you, and I need a honest answer. What were you doing when Joey called after he go shot?" asked Adie, looking stright into Billie Joe eyes.
"Your going to kill me for this, I know it," Billie Joe took a deep breath and sighed, "I was having a party, with Tre, my lovely drummer."
"Gosh Billie, that's like you, but I guess it's ok, netiher of us knew our son was going to get shot, now did we?"
"Nobody could have predicted that one. Now Adie what were you doing that was so important?" asked Billie, his green eyes, now longer tired looking, looked directly into her brown eyes.
"I was looking at pictures, crying," Adie answered truthfully. She didn't want Billie Joe to blame himself, but she had a feeling that was coming.
"Why would you do that, did you look at pictures of us, our family?" asked Billie Joe, feeling like shit, her excuse was so much better then his.
"Yes, seeing Crystel in those horrible conditons at Noah's house, or should I say FORMER house, made me start to wonder about our family. What kind of live did we lead? Should I do the same thing with Crystel? You know, guilt trip shit," explianed Adie, letting herself take some of the blame.
"So this is my fault, no don't even try to stop me from saying this. You were looking at pictures of me, because I kicked you out, so you were sad and wanted to feel better by looking back at happy times, because of me. And while you were doing that, I was having a good ol' time boozing it up with Tre, while our son got fucking shot. I'm just a horrible person," said Billie Joe, feeling like a complete loser.
"No Billie, listen to me, this is not your fault, this is not my fault, it's not anyone's fault except for that jackass Tom kid. Now if our son had enough common sense to call 911 when you get shot in the fucking leg, maybe he wouldn't have been in so much trouble. But he called his two loving parents, who were too busy doing something else, not knowing their son was getting shot by some physco kid after his ex-girlfriend. Now does that really sound like this is our fault, now does it?" ; explained Adie, kissing Billie loving on the lips, she loved him more then ever.
"If we weren't in a hospital right now, I'd be on top of you," ; said Billie Joe, grinning as Adie smiled.
"Damn it, if only we were, now that would be great. You little perv, you know that. But that's why I love you, my Billie," ; smiled Adie, hugging him, as Billie Joe returned the favor, they couldn't be happier.
"But I still feel horrible, I mean if only I could have sensed it, why didn't I answer the phone!" ; yelled Billie Joe, burying his head into Adie's shoulder.
"It's ok Billie, I'm here now, and I'm not leaving, neither is Joey or Jakob. We all love you," ; Adie said in here soft gentel understanding voice. Billie Joe slowy let the tears he was holding in for so long pour out onto his wife's shoulder. For the first time in the 15 some years they had been married, Billie was the one doing the crying, Adie was the one their for him, and for hours they sat like that. Two people, in love.
"Don't worry, Chris, or Ashley for that matter, me and your father still need to legally seprate and deal with lawyers and junk like that, i'm just saying, we may be moving to Maine, where your grandmother lives," explained Tara, sadly.
