There was a knock on the door.
"PIZZA'S HERE!" Bug practically screamed.
"You ordered pizza?" Seely questioned "How old are you all, 16?"
"I wish!" Garret laughed "anyway it was either that, or half a rotten tomato and a box of cheerios, cos that's all Jordans got in her kitchen!"
"Yeh, yeh laugh it up" Jordan said rolling her eyes, downing the last swig of beer in her bottle and walking over to answer the door, "cooking isn't my thing."
"If cooking isn't, then drinking is" Seely whispered to Lily who giggled as she cast her eyes around for Woody who had seemed to disappear.
Woody was in the bathroom when he heard Bug squealing out that the pizza was here. He had taken off the purple t-shirt of jordans that he had now all but destroyed and held his own shirt under the faucet to rinse out some of the stiky bourbon that Bug had spilt all down it. And he was now in the process of using Jordans hairdryer that he had fished out from the cabinet beneath her sink to dry it off. Not wanting to miss out on the pizza he abandoned all hope of completely drying the shirt and pulled it on still half wet.
When he entered the lounge room he saw Jordan leaning up against her door talking to the pizza delivery guy. The pizza guy was chatting her up, he could see it from across the room and she was loving it. She giggled and lent out and rested her hand on his bicep when he made a joke and twisted her finger around a strand of her curly dark hair. Woody was determined to put an end to this display, fixing his gaze he marching over to the pair. As he got closer he could here the delivery guy say,
"Anyway im Jay, I'm just delivering pizzas to save up enough money so I can go backpacking through italy"
"Yeh? Well I am Woody. And this is Jordan." he sain nodding his head in Jordans direction."She cuts up the dead for a living."
Jordan choked alittle as she spun around to a face Woody a a look of mixed shock, anger and amusement flashed across her face as the delivery guy laughed nervously,
"rrrright...seriously?"
" 'Fraid so." Woody nodded gravely an as he leaned between the two, taking the pizza boxes from Jays arms and closing the door in his face. Turing to smile innocently at Jordan, who pretended to be mad for about five seconds before smiling,
"Ass. You know I nearly got us free pizzas."
"Oh, did you now?" he smiled down at her, slipping his arm around her waist and walking toward the rest of the gang with the pizza. Jordan looked down at his hand resting on her hip and thought about pulling away, but instead placed her hand on top of his and inter locked their fingers. Woody's eyebrows shot op when he felt Jordans hand slide on top of his. When he put his arm around her waist he had half expected her to pull it off, he smiled to himself, but as he passed the pizza boxes over to Garret he felt Jordan move away from him, her hand slipping from his. He frowned inwardly as he watched her swagger her way over and join in an animated conversation with Bug and Nigel. He watched her as she laughed with them and couldn't believe how beautiful she was, and could help thinking that although only briefly Jordan had returned his affections. And that thought made him dizzier than all the beer he had consumed that night. He shook his head and sat down to take a seat next to Garret. Everyone greedily tucked into the steaming pizzas infront of them.
As everyone sat around drinking and eating they grew more and more content, and the noise level grew louder and louder. Woody found him self in an in depth conversation withGarret about the history of mob related crime in the Boston area, but when he heard the beginnings of "Dirty Water" by the Standells come on, his ears pricked up. He looked up to see that Jordan had turned it on and was now dancing he way over to him.
"Ooh" she sung smiling as she danced holding a hand out to Woody.
IM GONNA TELL YOU A STORY, IM GONNA TELL YOU A STORY BOUT MY TOWN, IM GONNA TELL YOU A BIG BAD STORY BABY
"C'Mon Woody dance with me baby!" He took hold of her hand, grabbed her around the waist and swung her around, as she squealed.
"I love this song!" Woody shouted above the music.
"Haha, yeh I know, me too, me too" Jordan laughed back as Lily and Seely came to join them in the dance.
"I love this song- I love this song!" yelled Garret dragging Renee to her feet.
DOWN BY THE RIVER, DOWN BY THE BANKS OF THE RIVER CHARLES
"I live right near there!" Bug yelled bouncing to his feet. Almost instantly the whole gang where dancing around to The Standells in Jordans lounge room.
Woody jumped up onto Jordans coffeetable half dragging her up as he did so,"Ooh I love that dirty water!" he sung out loud,and the rest of the gang threw back their heads- "BOSTON YOU'RE MY HOME!" they yelled all at once.
Nigel threw open Jordans window, "BOSTON YOU'RE MY HOME!" he screamed out into the night.
