Nick came by to check on Eddie. He could here the noiseof Eddie throwing things across the room from his bed. When he rounded the corner he could see Eddie was crying. He had fought back the trears all he could and he just had to let it go. "I'll just come back later" Nick said as he headed out the door. He thought Janet could help him better than he could so he called her. "Hey" she answered
"Got a second" he asked
"Yeah, what's up" she responded hoping Eddie had asked him to call
"I think he needs you" Nick was concearned
"Did he say that"
"No, but when he got done destroying his room...he paused...he's crying Janet" Nick explained and Janet just wept.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to" Nick thought he said something wrong
"I can't, Nick I just can't" and she hung up the phone and slid to the floor sobbing. Rooster couldn't help but notice and this time he was fully aware of his part in breaking Janets heart.
Nick gave Eddie a few minutes to compose himself before entering his room. His eyes were red and it was obvisous that it wasn't from the beating. "I called Janet"
"you shouldn't have" Eddie replied
"I gathered as much...you want to talk about it" Nick asked
"You know what I would like to do Nicky.."
"What's that"
"Go home, I want to just go home , will you take me" Eddie asked
"Sure buddy" Nick said as he patted Eddie on the shoulder
Once Janet regained controll her self she stood up wiped her eyes, took off her apron laid it on the bar and started to walk out. Sully knew what had happened "Meadows, take as much time as you need" he felt somewhat guilty for her heartache
"I'm not coming back, it's Eddie's bar, this is where he goes and I think I've taken enough away from him already" and she just walked out. Sully turned to rooster and said "I hope your happy"
Eddie was still in severe pain and rested his head againt the window for the majority of the ride. When they passed Janet's house he put his hand up to the window and let his fingers slowly slide down as a tear ran down his cheak. "Do you want to stop" Nick asked and Eddie just shook his head no. Once home Eddie headed up the stairs refusing help from any of the guy's. He stumbled into his room and threw his homecoming football through the window and into the street quickly grabbing the attention of the guy's as they stood up to go check on him. "Let him be, he's nursing more bruises" Nick said. Eddie put all of his strength into that fooball and managed to undo the little healing he had done. He grabbed his side in retching pain and reached for the bed nearly falling to the floor. After a few seconds he noticed Janet's picture on the table and picked it up as he slowly sat down. All the memories of thier time together was more than he could handle and he curled into a ball holding her picture next to him.He loved her and his heart was broken not like before with Rory, he was madly in love with Janet , he couldn't breathe without her. The guy's could hear him and all his pain. "What goes on with Eddie" Owen asked almost afraid of the answer "He's in love" Nick replied and they all sat around feeling Eddie's pain.
