--Three--

The next morning I woke up to yelling and an empty bed. I wanted to smack who ever was making the racket that woke me up. It sounded like Bobby and Angel fighting.

I growled then literally rolled myself out of Bobby's bed, then went into my suitcase and got my matching robe. I put it on as well as my slippers, then I grabbed my cell phone and headed downstairs.

I saw a woman who was yelling at Bobby in spanish. From her voice I recognized her as Angel's old girlfriend Sofi or as Bobby called her 'La Vida Loca'. I just shook my head, then laughed walking passed her, as Angel gave me a weird look as he told Sofi to go back upstairs.

I sat down on the couch and turned on my cell phone. I decided to listen to all the voicemails that were on there, so I kind of tuned everyone out. But out of all the yelling still going on, all I heard was Bobby yelling "Loco Ono is not staying one more night!" and "Let's play some fucking Turkey Cup!"

From all the voicemail's I got there was only one voicemail that actually caught my attention was one from Nathan.

"Hey, it's me, Nate. I've left you like a million messages and you don't even have the decency to call me back. I guess it doesn't matter anymore. I'm sorry to hear about your mom, but we both know the real reason why you went back to Detroit. I know you never loved me… it was always about him. He's the one that has your heart and I guess he always will. Well, Rachel, you have a good life. Goodbye."

I think I listened to that message three more times and I didn't know if I was sad or upset about it. I just sat there with my eyes closed, tuning everyone out, and thinking about what I just heard on my phone.

After that I was sitting there with a blank look on my face, but I was trying to think about what I was going to do. Was Nate right? Besides Evelyn's funeral, was Bobby the main reason I came back here? I don't know what the hell to do.

I was far off in space that I didn't even notice Bobby sitting next to me, until he draped his leg over my legs, then I looked at him as he was looking at me funny.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"Um… yeah." I looked over and saw Jack in the kitchen cooking, Jerry was watching the hockey game, and Angel was looking at Bobby with little yellow discs in his hands.

"Don't start, man." warned Bobby, then a few minutes later, Angel threw a few at him. "Why do you always do that?"

"Shut up." said Angel throwing more discs.

"To be aggravating." said Jerry, making me laugh.

"To be aggravating." Angel mocked him and threw some more, but Jerry dodged one.

"Chill out, man, I'm watching the game. Come on."

Angel started to throw some at Bobby, then he threw a few of them at me.

"Hey… what did I do?" I asked and Angel just laughed then continued to throw them at Jerry.

Angel got Jerry right in between the eyes and Jerry said "Try it one more time."

"What you gonna do?"

"You'll see." Jerry smirked.

"Big-ass teeth. Bite me." Angel made bite noises.

"You do have some big-ass teeth, Jerry." Bobby said making all of us laugh.

Angel threw another disc that hit Jerry on his forehead, then he got up, and hit Angel in the back of his head.

"Yeah, get him, Jerry!" yelled Bobby.

"What the hell are you doing?" Angel asked lunging at Jerry.

"Come on, boy." Jerry said trying to provoke him.

Both Jerry and Angel were tackling each other when Bobby was sitting there yelling like he was a commentator.

"The Gorgeous Black Ladies of Wrestling, Nitro and Midnight." I was laughing. "Nitro got Midnight in a head lock. Get him! Get him, Jerry! Midnight's trying to get up, but Nitro's on him. Get him, Nitro!"

Angel was on his back on the floor and said "Okay… all right, all right, all right."

Jerry helped Angel up off the ground and said "I'm still your big brother." Jerry hugged him then both of them sat down.

I started to get up, moving Bobby's leg off of me, when he said "Where do you think you are going, Miss Logan?"

"Um… I was thinking about going upstairs to take a shower if you don't mind."

He smirked, removed his leg, and said "Okay… go ahead." he had a big smile.

I gave him a weird look, because I knew he was plottin' something, then I went upstairs to Bobby's room to grab the clothes I was going to wear. I went into the bathroom and turned on the shower.

A few minutes later, after I got in the shower and wet my hair, am I forgetting something?

"Oh shit!" I thought to myself. I left my cell phone on the couch next to Bobby. I wrapped up in a towel the best I could and ran downstairs. As I walked up to him, not caring that the other guys were in the room, I saw the look on Bobby's face as he moved my phone away from his ear.

"Can I have my phone back?" I asked without looking at him. I didn't want him to go through my messages and hear that voicemail. But the way he was looking at me, I for some reason wanted to cry. My eyes welled up a little, then he finally gave it to me and I ran back up to the bathroom, getting in the shower.

I sat at the edge of the tub, crying. Why the hell was I crying? Because Nate left me? Because Bobby heard that message? Or was it the way Bobby was looking at me? I don't know. Everything feels like it's falling apart and I have a feeling none of that is over either.

I looked over at the sink, because I felt like someone was watching me, and there was Evelyn with a big huge smile. I had to blink a few times to make sure she was really there.

"He loves you, you know." she said to me in a soft voice. "And I know you love him too."

I nodded and said "I do love him."

"Then you should tell him and tell him about New York." I nodded and closed my eyes for a second, then when I opened them back up she was gone. I closed the curtain back up and closed my eyes again. I knew eventually I had to tell Bobby about New York, he had a right to know.

A few minutes later, I heard the bathroom door open, then some footsteps.

"Rach?"

"Um…yeah, Bobby?"

"Who's Nate?" he asked.

"He's a guy I've been dating, why?"

"He just called for you."

"What?!" I yelled as I moved the shower curtain a little to look at Bobby.

He looked at me and walked a little closer to me, then said "Where you crying?"

"A little… why did he call? What did he say?" I stood up in the shower.

"Well… he called me the infamous Bobby Mercer, then said you don't waste any time. He said that you love me and I won. I have your heart."

"He said that? Are you serious?"

"So my question is… what is that about?" he asked as he moved the shower curtain more to expose my naked body.

"What are you doing?" I was trying to cover myself, but Bobby got in the shower with me with his clothes on.

"So what was that about?" he asked me again, looking at me up and down with a smile.

I rolled my eyes and said "Can we talk about this when I get out of the shower?"

"Why? Remember… we use to take showers together all the time."

"Bobby, we were younger then."

"Tell me."

"I used to be with Nate, for like a year or so."

"What do you mean use to?"

"He kind of left me a voicemail basically telling me it was over." I shrugged my shoulders.

"Oh." he said.

"One day, he found my photo album that I had of all you guys and mom. I haven't looked at it in a long time, because seeing you in those pictures just hurt. But, after he found them and asked who everyone was… I would every so often look in there, of the ones of you or me and you together."

"Uh-huh… go on." he said and I rolled my eyes.

"So, I was looking at a particular one of the two of us and I started crying. Because I missed you so much, I hated not being with you and wondering if you were okay or not. Well… he saw me crying and from then on, all we would fight about is you." I put my head down to hide more tears from him.

"You love me?" he said lifting my head up with his two fingers. I looked into his eyes as tears were falling from mine and I didn't say anything. "Do you love me, Rachel?"

I closed my eyes and nodded, then said "Yes, I do, Bobby." I opened my eyes back up to look at his reaction, which he had a concerned look on his face. "I don't think I ever stopped loving you."

He gave me a weird look, then he got out of the shower, leaving me there extremely confused. I heard the door shut, then I sat back down. I just told him that I still loved him and he leaves me again. What the hell is going on?
