CONTINUED FROM LAST TIME...
A man ran toward them. Bobby stopped dead still on the steps, still holding his little brother, while Jessica whirled around, a fire in her eyes. Jessica stooped down, retrieved the gun, and as the man was nearing them, she aimed and pulled the trigger in one swift motion. the man fell dead. "Are you sure she isn't your long-lost-sister?" Jeremiah whispered to Bobby. Bobby turned to him, annoyed. "Shut the f*** up and let's get Jack inside." Angel stayed and watched as the girl inspected the dead man's body. "Yep, another one of Myers'." she said, pulling the man's hand up. Carved newly into the palm of his hand was an M. "Who's Myers?" Angel asked Jessica. she did not reply, but stalked into the house. Bobby and Jeremiah had, by then, propped Jack up on the couch, and covered him with a blanket. "Is he going to be okay, or not?" Bobby asked gruffly. "He should be." Jessica said. she slid herself to the floor, leaning against the couch. Bobby asked, softer now, "Why did you even try to help him?" Jessica took a deep breath. "I have a crush on him." Jeremiah laughed. "He's gay, sweetheart. You don't have a chance." However, Jessica looked at him quizzically. "He never told you?" Bobby leaned forward now. "Told us what?" Jessica sighed. "I thought you would have known. He's not gay, he's bisexual. He was, like, the biggest playboy in our school, with boys and girls." Bobby fell back in his chair. "Well...I sort of knew that." Angel punched him on the shoulder. "And you didn't tell us?" Bobby shrugged, and Jeremiah sighed. "Man, we have issues." At that moment, Jack stirred, and all heads turned to look at him. Jessica got up, and tossed Bobby a bottle of apirin. "I'm going. Give him sone of these, don't let him get up, and keep him covered." "Wait, you're going?" Jeremiah said. "Yeah." Jessica said, already at the door. "I don't really want to talk to him." Bobby walked to the door as well. "Why not?" Jessica sighed. I might come over againsometime, but for now...I want to forget." She walked out of the door, and got into her car. Before the car pulled away, Bobby got a glimpse inside: there was someone with her.
She got to her house, and the person in the car got out as well. "Did you do it?" he asked in a gruff voice. "Yes." she replied, visibly shaken.
