Chapter 2: Joey
Peter and Simon are walking at the promenade
"Do you really think this is a good idea, Simon?" Peter said, "I mean, I don't think that Annie and Eric are going to be so happy about this."
"Are you KIDDING?" Simon said enthusiastically, "Mom and Dad are going to totally LOVE this! They want you two to get married!"
"You really think so?" asked Peter.
"Yea," said Simon, "Can we go shoot some pool now? I'm bored."
Simon and Peter walked into the pool hall. Standing there, talking to another guy, was Ruthie.
"Ruthie, uh, what are you doing?" Peter asked nervously.
"Oh. Hey Peter!" said Ruthie excitedly, "This is Joey. I talked him into helping you with your Latin assignment!"
Peter, relieved, said, "Gee, thanks, Joey. I've been having a lot of trouble in Latin. That's awfully nice of you!"
"Eh, no problem, dude," said Joey.
"Hey Ruthie," said Peter, "You want to go get a soda?"
"Sure, sweetie!" said Ruthie, and the two walked off.
"Dude, Ruthie is hott! How do you think I can steal her away from that boyfriend of hers?" asked Joey.
"Joey, that's my sister you're talking about, and there's no WAY you're going to steal her from Peter. I'll make sure of it." Said Simon.
"Oh, don't worry. Ruthie will be eating out of the palm of my hands as soon as she gets to know me." Said Joey.
"If I have my way, she won't get to know you," said Simon, "Ruthie will find out about this. How old ARE you anyway?"
"Old enough," said Joey.
"I didn't ask if you were old enough," said Simon angrily, "I asked how old you were."
"21 and counting, bro," said Joey.
"Yea, well, Ruthie just turned eighteen," said Simon, "and if you don't keep your paws off of her, then I'll kick your ass."
"I'd like to see that," Joey chortled, and he walked away.
"Ruthie, Peter, it's time to go," said Simon, "And I've got to talk to you both on the way home."
(A.N I know I haven't talked about Cecilia's pregnancy yet, but I needed away to introduce the "bad guy". More to come!!!!)
