AND my calv muscle is SHOT-its jello. haha annnywaaayy The words to the song in this next chapter ARE important to the....development of jack's character (i guess thats th best way to describe it?) so the story itself and the lyrics may seem a bit repetitive but o well! chptr itself is short, hope u like.
Chapter 4: What Do I Need With Love?
The group filled the overnight cells in the refuge, pilling in, not caring whether they were spilt boys and girls-they were to drunk to notice. Most of the group was asleep, and if not they were just passed out. There was such a large group some were forced to sleep on the floor. Spot was asleep against a wall with Chloe curled up with him. A few of the girls had piled into a bed, and Madison attempted to curl up in a chair.
Jack sat, watching her, unable to sleep. Man is she beautiful. Seeing how crazy she can be, we could easily get along and-whoooah Kelly, what are you thinking? Come on now-you've got girls throwing themselves at you, and now you're letting yourself fall for this one? Guys would kill to be me! What do I need with love? Wow-you almost talked yourself into falling for this one-that was close. But...then again, what if you do love her? Nah-you're Jack Kelly. Hell-you can bust out of here right now!
After having been in the refuge many-a-time, Jack quickly broke the lock and got out. Just as he was passing her he stopped. After a moment he shook his head and started to move on. He came back. She was curled up, sleeping in a chair in jail, completely drunk, and yet he still thought she was gorgeous. He pushed the thought out of his mind. Next thing he knew he was back again-he couldn't do it. Relunctantly he went back into the cell, shut it,and sat down. Boy, you've really got it bad this time...
What Do I Need With Love? (Song lyrics from "Thoroughly Modern Millie"
Oh, the places I would like to show you.
Although I hardly know you.
I've a funny feeling we'd make a perfect pair.
Famous sights I wanna see you seeing.
The nights of you and me-ing.
Me. You. We-
Wait a minute! Just a mintute! No, no, no, no!
I'm a Joe with just one aim:
Every night to date a different dame.
Call each one of 'em the same pet name,
"Hey, Baby."
In a row I have my ducks
Loads of gals to give me loads of yuks.
Leave the cooing to the other clucks-
I don't mean maybe!
Got it good-What do I need with love?
Always practive what I preach:
Kepp temptation out of easy reach.
Stick to dolls who wash their hair in bleach-
I'm happy.
Come and go the way I choose.
Never gonna sing the tied-down blues.
Other guys would kill yo fill my shoes
No wing-clipped sappy.
Got it good-What do I need with love?
That was a near miss!
Talk about a close shave!
Flirted with disaster-
There must be someone up there watchin' over me.
Talk about a 4-leaf clover me.
Peter rabbit's missin' footsie
Means I roll without a tootsie
Got it good-What do I need with love?
Skip the vows and all that rot.
Tell the minister that I do not!
Bright and breezey is the-
Birds and bees-y is the-
Free and easy is the life I got-
Without her.
Although I hardly know you...
What do I need with love?
I got it good...
Got it good...
But now I got it bad.
Jack finally fell asleep until they were let out the next morning. Groggy and hung over, the group sulked out of the refuge, blinded by the sunlight. Jack caught Madison and she faltered a bit.
"Do you, uh, wanna get some coffee or something?"
"I can't-I have to get to work..." she held her head.
"You're gonna work like this?" he laughed.
"What are you talking about? I'm fiiiiine-" just then she ran right into a wall.
Jack held back laughter and stumbled as he talked, "Yea-you're fine alright..."
"I'll just do my best and if he notices-I'll tell him I'm sick..."
"You need me to walk you there?" she was about to say no when she almost fell again, "Guess that's a yes..." she laughed along with him as he helped her down the street to work...
