Spinner looked up from his lunch, "Hey Jimmy, Who's she?" He asked his wheelchair bound Best friend, Jimmy looked up from his sandwich, Grilled Cheese & a Thermos of hot tomato soup. She walked a cross the school grounds a baby on her hip; baby could not have been more than 10 mons. Old.
SHe could see them watching her, Go talk, maybe they can help. She thought as she reached the table, "Hi, I am Chelsea, & this little angel is Richard Connor Murray Jr!" she said tickling him playfully, as he laughed. "Could you help me find his Memorial? I heard there was one here" she asked...Spinner's mind when back to that faithful day, "Dude! Jimmy's been shot!" he heard some on say. His heart started pounding WHAT HAVE I DONE.
Jimmy looked down memories flooding back.
"You stabbed me in the back!" Rick said pulling his dads gun from his backpack. "Is that real?" he asked backing away slowly "The whole time you pretended to be my friend. You made me do this." Rick pointed the gun at him, Jimmy turned around to run, Rick turned away & pulled the trigger, the bullet severing Jimmy's Spine, binding him in this wheel chair for the rest of his life.
"Yeah, follow us." Spinner said, getting up from his place. Jimmy backed out to help lead the way to the memorial.
"So this was Rick's Son?" Spinner asked. "Yeah, He was so ecstatic when Itold him I was pregnant, Rick only held him once..." She said softly.
"Here it is."Spinner looked down as she walked towards the memorial, he noticed a wedding ring, and "You& Rick were married?" Jimmy said she smiled, & nodded "Almost a yearwhen we found out a bout baby Ricky right here." She bounced the little baby in her arms as he laughed again; she turned back to the memorial. "Oh Rick, honey Why?" she asked tears falling from her eyes. The painful burden on Spinners shoulder was officially too much to take...
"Because of me." he said Jimmy knew what he was talking about. He told her the story of how he set up Jimmy." I am soo sorry," he said looking down ashamed of what he had done. She took his hand," I forgive you, you didn't know this would happen." he looked up in surprise, he sniffed "It doesn't take it back."
"I know, but you might be in his place," she said gesturing to Jimmy, or like Rick. She took his hand as Toby walked over. "Ma'am did you get clearance to be in here?" Toby asked he looked at the baby in her arms; he looked at Rick's picture. & back at the baby. She giggled, "Yes, this is Rick's son." Toby's eyes grew wide...
"You're..."
"Chelsea or Chessy" Toby felt his heart a bout to pop out of his chest, remembering...
Sean laid Rick down on the floor, Rick accidentally shot him self in the stomach at an angle.
"OH MY GOD! Rick! I..."
"There's no way I'll make it Sean."
"Don't say that!" Emma said, tears in her eyes, she took his hand. His breathing was labored. Emma raced to find his locker, Not knowing how she found it she cracked the combo, flinging the door open grabbing the jacket from earlier the paint on it had dried. Rick laid there his breathing was more uneasy, she wadded up the jacket placing it behind his head.
"There's one thing I want you guys to do." said Rick, "Anything! Name it!" Toby said, "My wife, & son, Tell them I love them& find someone to take care of them please." He added, "I married not long after what happen to Teri, My son is only 2weeks old." Sean nodded "It's time for me to go" Rick said, "No! Please Rick! No!" Sean said chocked up "I know you wanted this Earlier..."Emma said she bent down kissing him. He drew his last breath. "I'm Sorry. "He said letting go...
"He asked me to find someone to look after you & him." Toby said, she put her hand over her mouth in shock. She touched his picture in the memorial. "Let me please? It was his last request. "Spinner asked.
