Chapter 10
One Friday night Jack never showed and it worried me, I sat by the phone all night hoping that he would call but that never happened. "Where's Jack?" Holly asked setting up her 'Go Fish' cards.
"I don't know," I replied with a sigh
"Do you think we should go looking for him?"
I looked at her and just shook my head "That's not a good idea."
"Why?"
"We're talking about the streets of Gotham here," I explained "I mean they are scary during the day imagine what they are like at night."
"But we have Auntie Pam's car," she said
"To use in case of an emergency," I told her
"Well this is one,"
"Why?" I asked "because we're down one person to play games with."
"No," she said "because he's our friend and you like him."
I opened my mouth to say something but I knew she was right "Look Holl," I said "I don't really know where to start and we don't even know if he's missing."
Holly went into the kitchen to grab the keys "We start by driving," she smiled placing the keys into my hands.
xoxox
We drove for a good forty minutes and still no sign of Jack anywhere, I looked over at Holly who was starting to fall asleep in the seat and was turning the car around when the headlights flashed towards the park. There was a group of boys from school doing something, what they were doing I could not tell and how I knew they were from school was because their jackets had our school's logo on it. I quickly put the car in park and feeling brave I got out of the car "HEY!" I shouted as I got closer and heard they were laughing.
"Come to get your little boyfriend?" one of them laughed
"That voice," I told myself "Where is he?" I asked
"Calm down geek he's right here," Jon said pointing to his friend Bob who was holding Jack against his will.
Jack had a bloody nose and a bruising eye from these jerks but yet he still manged to keep a smile on his face, "Let him go," I demanded "or I'll"
"You'll what?" Jon laughed pulling back his fist to give him another punch
I felt my blood boil as I brought back my own fist and laid it into the side of his fat ugly face, he grabbed the side of his face screaming "YOU STUPID BITCH!" Well that just angered me more and I let him have it again only this time slamming him right in the nose, Bob let Jack go and rushed over Jon "You alright?" he huffed
"You're going to pay for that," Jon said standing up straight and dusting off his jacket "I'll make sure of that."
With that said he motioned for his gang to split leaving Jack and I "You alright," I asked he smiled and nodded.
"What are you doing here?" he asked
"We were worried so we went to go look for you,"
"We?" he asked looking around
"SHIT!" I hissed "I left Holly in the car."
I rushed back to the car to find her fast asleep, I turned back to Jack "Here let me give you a ride home."
"Could I just come over to your house?" he asked
"Sure," I replied slowly "why?"
He looked down at the ground "Big fight at home and I don't want to talk about it."
"I understand," I replied "I sure Aunt Nina wouldn't mind if you stayed the night."
"Oh I'm sure," he laughed
"Don't worry," I said getting in the car "I'll talk to her."

With much begging and pleading I finally managed to get Nina to say yes well for one night any way. "You may stay for one night," she told Jack as she handed him an extra blanket and pillow for the sofa.
"Thank you ma'ma," he replied
She just gave him a quick smile and walked away, we said our good nights and that was it until tomorrow...
