Chapter 21:
"Well, I don't know if I can," Boidie started. "Ya see, it's complicated an' I wasn't there so I can't say anythin' with full confidence."
"Well then, what do you think happened?" I asked, annoyed that she said she knew, but didn't.
"Well, she was pickin' on 'im," she said. "She stole 'is hat and ran off, it was only natural for him ta chase her, right? And da rest I ain't sure of. What exactly did ya see?"
"I saw a girl pinned unda Ink's arms," I said. This sounded really lame. Should I really have freaked over that? "In an alley. What was I s'posed ta think?"
"So ya nevah saw any kissin' or anythin' like dat?" I shook my head. "Den he's innocent."
"I just," I started but choked. "I just can't believe dat. It would be too poifect a him ta not have been doin' what I thought he was doin'. An', either way, it was floitin'."
"So, guys are gonna floit, deal wit' it." I guess I should take her advise. We dropped the subject at that.
"Come wit' me ta sign outta da LH so dey don't charge me for time I wasn't dere." With that, we stood up, Boidie wiped her eyes, and we mad the short walk back to the LH.
"Mandy! We was wonderin' when you'd come back," Baby gasped as we came up. Everyone there looked a bit flustered. Race was there, and he ducked behind Baby, probably remembering the fade-in fade-out routine of not so long ago. Ink, Spot, and Coffee all looked, well, they looked. I can't decipher their emotions from their faces. Little Bit was there, looking slightly clueless, and so was Blink.
"Have you seen Tuck?" Blink asked. I guess he didn't realize she was still with Dice. His question was directed more at Racetrack than anyone else. Race suddenly had a very sly grin rising to his lips.
"Ah, I tink she might be ovah in dat alley down da street," he said mysteriously. "Having some alone time wit Dice." Blink's temper flared with that last sentence.
"With Dice?!?" he erupted very loudly. He ran down the street, towards the nearest alley. Naturally, we all followed him. These people LIVE off fights.
We got there and saw Tuck and Dice pulling apart quickly after seeing Blink come into the alley. Tuck wiped her mouth. MY GOD! I'd never seen her in that light.
"What the hell are ya doin', Dice?" Blink stated, shoving Tuck out of his way to get a clearer shot at his face. I swear the thud that his fist made slamming into Dice's cheek was audible.
"NO!" Tuck screamed. "Git off 'im, STOP!" She threw herself at the fight, leaping on to Blink's back and wrapping her arms around his neck in an attempt to pull him off. He threw her off, and immediately the fight ended. That is, after they all heard Tuck hit the ground, hard.
"Tuck, are you OK?" they both said in unison. Darned freaky twin thing. Tuck just got to her feet, walked up to Blink, and kicked him in the shin, saying:
"I don't like you, live wit it." Then she proceeded to Dice, and wrapped her arms around him and kissed his cheek, just to prove a point.
"Well, I feel like crap," Blink said, after bouncing up and down on one foot for about a minute, nursing the newly forming bruise. Hey, I would, too.
I started to cry after a minute. Couldn't say why, maybe it's life smacking me in the face with a cold hand. Yeah, that's my excuse. Both Ink and Coffee stepped up on either side of me to comfort me, and Bit put a hand on my shoulder. Baby Tuck and Dice had walked off, and Spot wasn't doing anything because of the fact that Boidie was standing right beside him.
The second the thought of home registered in my mind, I thought about going back to my time. Shouldn't have done that. The scene changed, more smoothly this time, and Spot and Boidie dissolved into the scenery.
"What the. . .?" Coffee said, but got cut off by me.
"Aw, crap. I can't handle this right now."

Ok, this was a way short chapter. I'm trying to work everything together, and with all of my friends screaming at me incessantly because I didn't do MY ff how THEY wanted me to, it's getting pretty hard. I forget most of it really fast, so I know that I satisfied Tuck by allowing her to kick Blink in the shins, and Bit should be happy because she was included. I missed a lot. Sorry guys.
Shout outs! (yes, at some point I said I hate these, but who cares?)
Little Bit- Do I really need to shout out to you? Ah-well, I will anyways. Yes, I realized that your name was changed, I just didn't know to what. And do all these NORMAL people really need to hear our problems?
Race da Hottie- I so did the chapter right! Just not to your specifications. After reading this one, are you happy?
Imagenlet- Thank you for every last one of your kind reviews! Yes, most friends would. mine would just chew me out and play the guilt card. As for my personal note, it's not really bad. It's just this thing that everyone is doing at school, and naturally I got dragged in. Oh well. All in fun.
Klutz- I can't wait to see, either. Honestly. I've quit planning this and just go with it (when my friends aren't forcing me to do it their way). The only thing that stands is how it will end.
