Ch 8
Stuck in a duel of love
As Joey walked down the sidewalk of the pier, he noticed how the sun sparkled over the ocean. Never had he took a chance to look at the water in a way he did now. As he sat down on a bench, he noticed someone lurking around the beach where many people where sitting at that point. As he watched him, and looked at the ocean, he heard loud shrill.
"Hey you asshole! Give me back my damn bag!"
That voice sounded very familiar, and he was hoping it wasn't the person it was. Joey then looked to his right and saw the guy who was lurking around people and their purses. Truthfully, he looked like a kid...it was a kid. And what was worse, if the person didn't hurry up and run a little bit faster their purse might get stolen. Quickly he thought of the smartest move he could think of in ten seconds. He yawned and out his foot out causing the "Hey, kid. What do ya think your doin, stealin peoples things like that?" He said taking the kid by his collar and trying to punch Joey but he was doing a horrible job at it.
"Let go of me!!"
"Why? Give me one good reason why I should let go of you, ya little tyrant?"
"Look, I'll give you back the purse-"
"Actually it's a bag."
"Bag, whatever, just let me gooooo!!!!" The kid was kicking and screaming to get as much attention as he could, and it was working. Joey then took the bag from the id and let him go. The kid ran off.
This is some weird looking bag...purple...that reminds me of...
"Joey Wheeler you-" A feminine husky voice called out from behind him.
"Here." He said trying not to start anything between them, which is kind of hard when Mai was around.
"What's this?"
"It's the bag the stupid kid took from you. Don't you think you would want it back?" Mai stared at him. "What?"
"Joey, you must be stupider than I took you for." She said placing her hands on her hips.
"What do you mean?"
"My purse is right here, that's not mine. I never carry a bag that is the same color as my outfit." Joey looked at her bag that she was holding, then the one he was holding. He slowly put that bag on the ground. "You should've known that knowing that you were going out with me, dumbass." She said walking right in the middle of the street unaware that a bus was coming.
"MAI LOOK OUT!!!"
"Wha-" Before she could finish her whole word Joey took her by the waist and pulled her out of the street, leaving her very close to Joey's chest.
"Mai what the hell?! Do you want to go and kill yourself? Is that what you want?! Damnit!" He said gently shaking her by the shoulders. She just looked at him with a confused smirk on her face.
Was he worried about me or did he... She pulled away just a little bit and stared at him. As her head slowly lifted up to meet his eyes, she noticed that they were in complete shock. (A/N: If you guys want to know, they're this close to each other) She too was shocked at what he was saying to her. His hands were still on her waist and as she stud there and looked at him, she slowly backed away. "I have to go."
"What? And almost get hit by a bus again? I don't think so."
"Your not my mother Joey." Mai said as she began to walk in the direction of her house. He then grabbed her hand.
"I'm going with you, and don't try to act al bitchy about it." He said as she snatched his hand off hers.
"I'm not acting bitchy about anything, just let go of my hand." Joey shook his head while smiling. "What?"
"You know, you could at least be a little bit nicer to the person who 'saved' your purse or bag." Mai laughed. Joey hadn't seen her smile since he gave her that necklace, before their breakup. As they began to walk, it was an odd awkward silence between them. This was certainly something they hadn't done in a long time. About ten minutes later, they arrived at her house.
"Um...thanks...I guess. For, um...taking me home when I could by myself." Joey rolled his eyes and said some thing under his breath. "I heard that!" Joey turned around.
"And what did I say Mrs. Valentine?" he said while walking up the stairs that lead to her door. "I don't know, but that trick works all the time."
"What trick? Are you coming on to me again?" He said smiling.
"Uh...yeah, I want you Joey...you uh...sexy man you?" She said walking in her door way.
"Wanna do something tomorrow?"
"Why?"
"Look, you wanna do something or not?"
"Nope" She said while closing her door and walked to check her messages.
"You have three new message s:( beep) Hi Mia it's me John, just calling to see if you want to do any thing tomorrow. Just call me when you get this. Bye, sugar. (Beep) Hi it's me again...just give me a call. (Beep) Mai sugar, would it kill you to pick up the phone? I'm trying to put a good one on you. Just give me a call. Bye, snuggle bear. (Beep): End of messages"
Mai cringed at the very thought of going out with that guy who called himself a gentle men. She quickly picked up the phone and dialed. It rang bout three times until someone picked up the phone.
"Hello?" "I'll do anything...name it."
End
Oh yeah! Go me! In my face, I got a cliffhanger right hurr. But any way, thank you all for reviewing this story, I love you all so much...so much I could give you candy...and magic...and God! Ok review and thanks again!
