Bobby fights back and shocking news is afoot ...

CHAPTER FOUR

Goren's Revenge

Having had enough of Logan's temper, Bobby decided to let Mike know who's the boss. He was the one whom always kept the peace during bar fights that Logan started … and Bobby ended, but his nose had had enough.

Asking nurse Dani to please step aside, Bobby unloaded on Mike.

"You know what Logan? I've put up with your childish behavior for how many years now … always keeping your ass from getting kicked from here to Albany. Always being the peace keeper. But now that I decide to do something that I think is right for my family … you have to haul off and break my nose … not once but twice!? Screw you Logan! The next time someone wants to shut that dumb-ass mouth of your's … I'm gonna watch them kick your ass from here to Albany! No … better yet … I'm gonna do it myself!"

Everybody's mouth dropped and they all took a step back, even the peanut knew what was happening and he placed his hand over his mouth. He said, "Uh oh, Daddy mad!"

Mike's eyes grew wide … and just and time to see Bobby's big fist connect with his right eye. Mike landed on his butt and seemed dazed and confused.

"You hit me … you actually hit me!"

Nurse Dani stood idle with her arms crossed in front of her chest with a huge smirk on her face. This did not go un-noticed by Mike.

"Did you think I was going to let you keep breaking my nose?"

"Yeah … you never fight back and what the hell are you smirking at 'Patch Adams,' aren't you suppose to be the angel of mercy and coming running to my aide or something?"

Dani rolled her eyes at Mike and laughed out her response. "Please Logan … the only thing Bobby hurt on you was your pride and I think your wallet cushioned that!"

"Leave Dani out of this, as Mike began to rise and dust himself off … Bobby pushed him back to the floor, stay down before I hit you again … I'm not done talking yet!"

"Hey … enough … I get it, you can beat the crap out of me okay?"

"Yeah … I know, but I have something to say and you need to hear it. We are friends … you and Lewis are probably the two best friends I've ever had, but when I decide to do something … like quit my job and better myself …"

"I know … I know … I get that too … it's the best thing for your family and I apologize … I sincerely apologize. I've been acting like a complete ass … will you forgive me?"

Alex had tears in her eyes … even an unforgiving Dani couldn't help but get choked up at a very heart warming scene between the two men. Lewis came rushing over and hugged the two of them together.

"I just love when we all get along … this is like the make-up sex!"

Mike and Bobby pulled and pushed apart and sent Lewis sprawling on his ass.

"Alright … enough … it's my babies first birthday … lets eat cake!"

Carolyn was standing off to the side with her hands on her hips set to explode … "Wait one minute 'love birds!' I just transferred to Washington D.C. for you, Michael … just so you could be near … near … HIM!?"

"But baby … you're sick of maintaining two apartments … I wanted this for us … not just me."

"I'm sick of maintaining two apartments because someone won't get off of his ass and help out with the chores … I work, I clean, I cook … what the hell, am I your maid or your wife?"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa … did she just say your wife?" Asked Bobby and Alex … as well as several others.

"Ah … ah … ah … you see … we all have to make compromises and ah …"

"COMPROMISES!?"

"Honey … that's not what I meant to say … what I meant was …"

And that's when Carolyn broke Mike's nose … nurse Dani felt bad for Mike this time … sort of … and bent down to help stop the hemorrhaging.

Sometime between the last chapter and this one ... Mike and Caro visited the JP ... I'll explain why at a later date! Thanks for reading ~ Judy
