Chapter Six
JR closed his eyes, remembering better times with his mother and Tad. He jolted from his deep thought at the sound of tapping on the window. He pulled back the curtain and opened the window. Sweeney climbed through with Shayne behind him.
"Thought we'd come give you a break from your jail cell," Sweeney grinned. "Wanna come down to the lake with us? Checked it out, no one you know down there."
JR smiled, and followed the two out the window.
Shayne pulled a bottle from his pocket, unscrewed the cap, and took a long swig of the light brown liquid. Licking his lips he passed the bottle to Sweeney, who also took a long swig of the alcohol. Sweeney pushed it towards JR, and he just shook his head.
Sweeney grabbed the glass bottle marked '7/7' and handed it to JR, "Man, dont be such a wuss."
"I'm not a wuss, Sweeney, I just don't feel like drinking." JR shoved the bottle towards Shayne.
"Come on. Kick back. Take a sip," Shayne smiled, nudging the bottle back towards JR.
JR sighed, and unscrewed the cap, and put the bottle to his lips, tilting his head back, and taking a large gulp.
"What the hell do you think you're doing!?" David yelled at JR, knocking the bottle to the ground.
"Does this guy stalk you or something JR?" Sweeney laughed at Shayne's comment.
"Get the hell out of here before I call the cops on you two!" David didn't have to say it twice. Sweeney and Shayne we're already half way out of the park as soon as he said cops. "Do you really think drinking will help you cope? Do you really think doing this to your body will help you get over Dixie?"
"Do you think playing father to her low life son will make it any less hurtful to wake up in the morning for yourself!?" JR challenged back.
"David, I promise you if you say another word I'll have you arrested for harrassment," Adam said angrily, putting a hand on JR's shoulder.
"I can fight my own battles!" JR yelled angrily at Adam. Adam was pacing the floor at the Chandler Mansion. "It's not like I need you, or Tad, or David to fight my battles for me!"
Adam stopped pacing, and looked JR in the eye, "I want you to stop talking to Hayward, and come live with me, son."
"I like living with Tad and Jamie. They're my family too, dad!"
"But I would rather you stay in a more stable environment."
"What if I dont want to?" JR crossed his arms.
"It's not an option, Junior."
On the next All My Children...
"Tad, JR's missing," Liza crossed her arms, glaring at Adam.
"What the hell did you say to him, Chandler?" Tad growled lowly.
"I don't want to stay with my dad. I can't risk losing my sanity in that house, Tad."
"I understand.. but, JR maybe it's best if you saw your dad more often," Tad swallowed hard, and looked up at JR.
"You are my dad."
