I'll warn you now that this chapter, in my opinion, sucks. I'm so sorry for that. Also, near the end of this chapter I was listening to sad music and that sort of changed where I was going with this, I just hope it's understandable.
Not much of either couple in this chapter, just going with the plot mainly, but you have to read to understand.
Cruisin' for a Bruisin'
Chapter 4 : The Dancing Twin Dragons.
Mack sat in Big Mamma's, her eyes lingering on the front door the entire time. Mack and Brady hadn't left Big Mamma's all night, they were lucky that the owner allowed them to stay here. She was drinking a glass on Orange juice while Brady was snoring his head off on the pool table. The entire night had been dreadful for Mack, she hadn't got a wink of sleep, but amazingly she didn't really feel that tired - the magic of films she guessed. Brady had told her everything about the film - Wet Side Story. Even though Lela was supposed to fall into Tanner arms instead of Mack's, Brady said that they could just make their own movie and not have to go back to the real world.
Even though Mack had felt something she had never felt before in her life when Lela landed in her arms, she knew deep down that they needed to go back. And so Mack had an idea to try to get things back on track, she was going to try to get Tanner and Lela together. Brady had looked sad when she told him this, but he agreed to help her anyway. They would have to put the plan into action soon and figure out who had landed in Tanner's arms - because neither of them had seen who it had been - and try to keep "said" person at bay while they got the story back on track. However, Mack couldn't fight a feeling deep inside her chest, something that was telling her that this maybe the worst idea she'd ever came up with.
Suddenly there was a rev of a bike. Mack looked up from her drink which she had been staring into, a frown lingered on her face - if Brady was right than the surfers normally got here first. But then why was there a biker pulling up to Big Mamma's without a surfer in sight. Mack stood up, heading to the doors, she peered out of them. Seeing two helmeted heads with only one Bike parked up. The bike had two people on, the one had shorts and an open t-shirt on - Tanner. So there was a surfer on a bike, but why? The rider of the bike was in pink leathers and...
Mack gasped as she knew that pink leather - it was Lela. Apart of Mack was happy that Tanner and Lela were on the same bike, but the other half was screaming at her to go over there and drop-kick Tanner for having his arms around HER Lela. Mack glared slightly as Tanner got off the bike, pressing his hand onto Lela's shoulder, mumbling something that sounded like a "thank you." Tanner ripped off his helmet and passed it to Lela, who had taken her's off and placed them on the seat of the bike once she was off. Once that was done, they both rushed up the steps to Big Mamma's. Mack was just in time to move out-of-the-way before getting whacked by one of the doors.
The one door banged hard against the wall, waking Brady up as it did. Brady muttered something about the fact that it wasn't him, Mack just rolled her eyes. Lela looked around Big Mamma's frantically, Tanner was pretty much doing the same. Mack came over and put her hand on Lela's shoulder. The black-haired girl jumped a little, before she realised that it was Mack. She smiled, but it never reached her eyes, something that - even though Mack barely knew who Lela was - wasn't right. Mack went to speak to her, but was cut off by Tanner who was bounding around Big Mamma's.
"He's not here either!" Tanner gripped the side of his head in frustration.
Mack looked at Tanner, than back to Lela who now looked like she was about to burst into tears at any moment now. "Hey," Mack smoothed, pulling her into a hug. "Are you okay?" She asked, grabbing Lela's chin with her hand to lift her weary head up. "What happened?" Lela looked Mack in the eyes, and then burst out in tears. Hugging Mack back tightly, Lela's face was in the crook of Mack's neck. Neither minded it though. McKenzie rubbed smoothing circles on Lela's back. Whispering gently words into the Bikers ear. Mack looked towards Brady, giving him the silent message to go talk to Tanner who had run outside. After a moment, Brady went outside too. Mack pulled away from Lela slightly. "Lela? I need to know what happened, okay?"
"O-k-ay," Lela wiped her eyes as Mack brought over two chairs to sit on. "My bro-th-er..."
"Butchy?" Mack asked, holding onto Lela's hand now, who nodded.
"He's...He's missing..."
Brady ran outside, seeing Tanner straight away. The surfer was sitting on the steps, head in his hands. Brady frowned deeply, this wasn't like anything he saw in the movie. Tanner was the happy-go-lucky type of person who every girl wanted to date and every boy wanted to be. Walking down the steps, Brady came to a stop by Tanner and sat down next to him. "Are you okay, Tanner?" He asked, even though the fellow blonde was clearly not fine.
"I don't know where he is..." Tanner mumbled, not lifting his head up from his hands.
"Who?"
"Butchy."
'Butchy?' Brady thought. 'Why would Tanner, of all people, be concerned as to where Butchy is?'
"Why are you looking for Butchy?"
Tanner looked at him as though he'd grown two heads. "Because his missing, duh."
"No that's no what I meant...Why are you looking for Butchy, he's the leader of the Rodent's, you're the leader of the surfers."
"I slept with him."
Brady almost gagged on his own breath. "You did what!"
"I slept with him, we didn't...you know. But his parents came in when I woke up - they yelled at us. And then they kicked Butchy out like he was trash. Lela was screaming at her parents for doing such a thing, but they didn't listen. I tried to talk to them, tell them that it was all a mistake, but they never listened. I ran outside to talk to Butchy, but the only thing I saw was the lights coming from the back of his bike as he drove off. Lela came out and we went to follow him, we got on her bike, but no matter where we went, we couldn't find him. It was useless. I thought that maybe, just maybe, he'd be here - but I guess I was wrong. I messed up pretty bad..."
Brady let all of this sink it before he finally spoke up. "Tanner, there's something I have to tell you..."
I will let you all know now, there is a damn good reason they didn't find Butchy. I'm almost in tears from thinking about it actually. :'(
*Cough, cough.* So I know this seems rushed and all, but I can't help it - the muse was here, there and everywhere for this chapter. Thanks for reading and please review/follow/favorite. Thank you all so much for the support.
P.s Sorry about all the mistakes.
