A/n WARNING there is a swear word in this chapter, if that kind of thing
bothers you have been warned.
(Charlie Pov) With a couple hug kisses and a "we'll have to do this again," our group slowly left. I waved a quick goodbye to my Mom before heading out with the team. I couldn't help but think about what Jackass, I mean Banks had said. WE ended up huddled in the parking lot silent, extremely unusual for the Ducks.
Guy shifted before breaking the silence, "He can't do that right, he can't get us kicked out. Not just because he doesn't like us."
"It didn't work last year." Guy's better half Connie reminded us all.
"Yeah but there is a difference between Riley and Banksie. Riley was a jerk, but he didn't play hockey with us. Banks is loaded with ammunition; he knows what we do and when we do it. He's like a Nazi spy or something." Ken added concern washed over his face. See ken was actually smart and for him Eden Hall was just one step closer to an Ivy League school.
"I think we should lay low for a while." I said.
"What?" Russ yelled at me, "Are you kidding me? You are Charlie Conway right, the kid who's motto is "shit happens, just make sure it happens to them first." You did not just say the words lay low." I nodded at the freaking out black boy. "Oh my, I'm feeling faint, we need to get this man to the hospital." He said dramatically flailing his arms and fanning himself, a good mix between Jim Carey and Scarlet O'Hara if ya ask me.
"look, I don't like this as much as anybody. But we can't beat him at his own game. So we have to think of something better. Let's just lay low for a while, he might knock it off on his own. We did egg the guy's locker." I paused; no one was rapidly agreeing with me.
"Sir yes Sir, We shall commence operation ignore Mr. Khaki pants, is there anything you'd like to add Captain, my Captain?" Averman rambled saluting me. Yep, that's why we've kept him around this long, good old Les could break just about any tension.
(Adam Pov) I tossed for the millionth time that afternoon. I hadn't been able to sleep all night, thought and yells echoed in my head.
"Do you have any idea what your doing? Do you even think, Adam? Obviously not if you had you would have done better.
I thought Father supported their sons. All mine did was tear me down. How could do this? You'd think I'd learn after all these years. I guess I wasn't expecting it I wasn't prepared. How could I let him hurt me?
Do you know what you are Adam? Hmm? A disappointment. You want to F**** over whatever chance you've got do it on your own time Mr. You will not embarrass this family any more than you already have."
I wiped my swollen eyes. When did I start crying? When did I start crying over him especially?
"Adam," the knocking on my door persisted. My Mother and Father had both came trying to get me to come out. After I got home from my little cruise I had howled myself in there. I didn't go down for dinner. Truthfully I don't know why. I mean sure my Dad and I screamed at each other, sure my Mom sat there the entire time pretending not to hear a single word so what if all my family ever did was yell. Dose it really matter?
Another Sunday spent sulking. Well at least I had my routine established. I'm a creature of habit.
"Adam, look me and a couple of guys are going out maybe getting some food, and I know you have got to be starving. So do you want to come or have me bring something back? Adam open the stupid door." My stomach was rumbling. I should get up and just go. I shoved myself off my bed the covers laid in a heap on the floor. I smirked at the disaster I'd caused. Normally I'm a clean person, this looked more like a large tornado had come through. "Who?" I said picking up a shirt from the floor. I'd never gotten around to changing yesterday.
"Varsity," he said jingling the doorknob. He looked at me a little strange; I'd left it unlocked again. He leaned against the doorframe revealing the rest of the Varsity team huddled around my door.
"Come on, I'll be fun." Rick said. Rick was actually a nice guy, granted it took a while to get to that part, but once you're on his good side he's got your back forever. I just shrugged grabbing my wallet from my dresser. They parted once I walked up to them.
"Man you look like hell," Cole said, ah how sweet of you I thought rolling my eyes. Staying up all night having a heated "discussion" with your father can do that to a guy. I crawled into the back of my brothers Benz with out talking.
I was not in the most social mood. But there was food involved and I am a teenager, so I was willing to put up with them. My brother kept looking back at me in his rear view mirror. He had that I'm concerned about you look written on his face.
We pulled into a Dairy Queen and loaded out of our cars. Scooter came over and slung his arm over my shoulder. "Come on Adam, lighten up. It's not like your dead. I mean the sun is shinning the birds are, well North you know the whole migration thing but hey it's still all good." I had to smile at Scooters rambling. He was a great guy; sometimes he would go on and on and on, never really making any sense. Just rambling until he stumbled upon a point, I swear someday he'd just be rambling and come up with the cure for cancer or something equally amazing.
"Right Scooter, I completely understand." I said shrugging off his arm.
"See, somebody understands my genius."
"Well ya how it is know great Freako's think a like." My brother said.
"Hardy har," Scooter retorted. We ordered and found a booth in the corner big enough to fit us all.
I listen to them banter back and forth before spacing into my own little world. I barley registered my food being put down in front of me.
"Stop it," My brother said leaning into my personal space. I've always had a weird thing about being touched; it's not my style. Well unless I'm checking some one on the ice, outside of that keep your distance I like my bubble undefiled thank you very much.
"Stop what?" I asked snapping a little more than attended. I shoved him back into Rick's side.
"Hey," He said. Oops, now I have everyone staring at me. I mumbled an apology before turning my attention back to my burger fries and milkshake.
"I already told to you to stop it," My brother insisted.
"Stop what?" I asked again my patience for them growing very thin.
"Stop thinking about it. Look whatever you fought about just let it go. We both know he's not sitting in his office obsessing over it so it's not going to do any good. So eat your food and lighten up."
I rolled my eyes. I think he's taking this older protective brother thing a little to far.
