You Never Know What Might Happen, chapter 6
The next night I was lying in my bed not knowing what was going to happen next.
Then I heard a bang. I run outside to the living room where I see Billie Joe lying on the floor and Jimmy has a gun in his hand.
"JIMMY! WHY THE FUCK DID YOU JUST DO THAT? CALLL THE FUCKING POLICE," I screamed. And with that Mike and Tre came running out into the living room also shocked to see Billie Joe lying on the floor. Luckily, Billie Joe was only shot in the arm. I got up from kneeling down at Billie Joe and I ran to the phone and I dialed 911.
"Hello, yes. My friend was shot in the arm. The address is..."
"13 Berkely street," Mike cuts in holding the other phone
"Jimmy," I said more calmy "Why did you do this?"
"It was my way of saying that he shouldn't have gotten my best friend pregnant."
"Jimmy!! I did it too!"
After I said this there was an awkward silence.
About 5 minutes later the paramedics arrived. They said Billie Joe would be alright but whoever shot him, shot him good. If they came later all the acid would have been everywhere in his body and he would have died.
It's been a few days now and Billie Joe is back. I don't think Jimmy ever wants to speak to BJ again. Not that I blame him because of what he did. But BJ is willing to forgive Jimmy.
"Bye guys," Jimmy said. What is he saying? Is he leaving for good? Never seeing me again? Well he has all his stuff so I guess he's leaving.
I go up to Jimmy and hug him tightly and kiss him on the cheek
"Take good care of yourself and come and visit me regularly please," I whisper in his ear.
"Don't worry, I will," He wispers back.
Jimmy. Gone for good. I hope he'll come back some day. He'll be like the uncle to my baby. I want to go with Jimmy, but I have to stay here.
Oh well. It's late, I'll just go to bed maybe nobody will notice all these tears streaming down my face.
