The three of us just stood there in disbelief.
"They seriously just suspended us" I muttered pissed off "I got suspended from my own job that my Uncle and Aunt basically own"
"Yeah, yeah you did" said Julie
"Unbelievable" I groaned
"So now what?" asked julie looking over at Randy
"Yeah Ran, now what?" I asked
"Why you two looking at me?" Randy asked "if it wasn't for you two calling me I wouldn't have been awake and I would have made it"
"Oh hell no, who decided that laying on top of a car for a little while after the rescue was a great idea?" Julie asked eyeing him
"Julie has a point," I said, "Who was that?"
"Umm who decided to lay there with me and was not complaining at that time?" Randy asked staring at the both of us
That was when Aunt Steph opened up the door "we can hear you three bicker you know that right?"
We all looked at her "yeah we realize that"
"Although what happened to you was not your fault but how it sounds is what happened afterwards was the three of yours faults so guess what put on your big kid panties and suck it up. I would take this time to get some training done" Aunt Steph said "love you Candy"
Then she walked back into the room and shut the door.
"Gir!" I yelled
The door opened up again and instead of Aunt Steph it was Uncle Paul "growling isn't going to help your issue"
I glared at him "Ok so we messed up, so you are basically grounding me from the one thing I love"
"Grounding is for little kids, you are 18 years old which means you are suspended" Uncle Paul said "Now I am sorry that you are in this situation but it is the three of yours faults"
I saw Randy slowly shake his head "wouldn't have been if someone didn't wake me up"
"Now off you guys go and go find something useful to do" Uncle Paul said with a small smile "oh and Candy we love you"
Then he walked in and shut the door. I started to jump up and down frustrated and punched the door and then walked away. I got half way down the hall when Julie got next to me
"Are you ok?" she asked
"No i am not ok" I said "they are being unfair"
"I mean yes and no" Julie said
I glared at her
"I was just saying that it is a little unfair but at the same point it's not" Julie said with a shrug
I sighed and slowly shook my head. We found an empty table and sat on it. That was John saw us and came over
"Hi" he said quietly
"Hi" we said in unison
"Why do you two look so down?" he asked sitting next to me
I was so irritated "don't even want to talk about it"
"Is it the same reason that Randy is all pissed off?" John asked
"Maybe" julie replied
"He grabbed his shit and left you know that right?" John asked
"I suppose he would since we are all suspended" I muttered leaning forward and putting my head in my hands
"Wait you guys all got suspended?" John asked touching the small of my back
"That is what she just said" Julie said irritated
"Candy what happened?" John asked "maybe I can find some way to fix it"
"John we don't want your help, you have caused so many issues lately" Julie said crossing her arms
"Let me make it right" John said practically begging "please"
"How on earth are you going to make this right? We messed up we were late we kind of deserve to be suspeneded" I muttered looking over at him
"Kind of I mean if it wasn't for that stalker and then we stayed up way past our bedtime and well google got us lost"
"Hi Julie how can I help you?" her phone said going off
"I want you to shut up google" julie yelled at it and then closed it
"Let me talk to your uncle and aunt maybe I can come up with something" John said getting up and leaning in and kissing my forehead and walking away
"Hes getting comfortable with you again" Julie muttered
I groaned "i honestly don't care at this moment"
"Should we leave?" Julie asked just as Nikole got to us
"So is it true?" Nikole asked looking at us in her smug way
We glared at her "is what true?"
"That you two and Randy got suspended that you two actually are the reason Randy got suspended" Nikole said trying to hold back her grin
"I honestly don't think it's any of your business" Julie said eyeing her
"But it's all over the place we all heard about it" Nikole said "Oh wait no it was just me thanks to my amazing boyfriend"
I slowly shook my head "don't you think you caused enough problems?"
"I didn't do anything it's not like I was out and about all night then late getting here" Nikole said chuckling
"Bye Nikole" we said
She laughed and then walked away.
Johns pov
I went to Pauls office and knocked
"Come in" I heard from the inside
I walked in
"Well hello there John wasn't expecting you" Paul said looking up at me with a small smile "what can I do for you?"
"What can be done to get the girls and Randy unsuspended?" I asked
"I had a feeling that this was about that" Paul said folding his hands "and there is nothing you can do as this is their fault and they are now big girls. They need to be able to be responsible for themselves"
"Paul I know you there is always something that can be done" I said
"Not this time. See Candy is my niece and she has had it pretty easy since she was a kid due to growing up in this sort of life. It's now time for her to learn from her mistakes and take responsibility for her actions and that also goes for Randy and Julie" Paul said sitting back in his chair
"But Randy was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Candy and Julie called him for his help if it wasn't for that he wouldn't even be in this situation" I said
"But he too was late it doesn't matter why the rules are rules"
"Paul you came up with the rules you and your family. I am sure you guys can let this one slide" I said leaning forward putting my hands on his desk getting at the same level as him
"I mean maybe, maybe i can make a match and make this interesting. If he wins this match he can be unsuspended and if he loses well nothing changes" Paul said
"Depends on who he is going against. We both know you don't like making things fair when it comes to these type of matches" I said
"I make things fair I guess you will see when his match is up tonight" Paul said "thank you for the idea"
"Paul…"
"John if you don't mind I have a bunch of things to sort through before the show tonight" Paul said
I groaned and walked out. God I really hope I don't regret this.
