Scene 4 Lindsey's House
"So how are things with you and Jack? More importantly, why are you here and not with him?" Jordan's friend Lindsey pried as they sat in her living room catching up. She had met Jordan soon after she moved up north and they had become fast friends. Jordan now lived and traveled with Jack but she and Lindsey still kept in touch and visited whenever they had time.
"Hey I thought you would be happy to see me!" Jordan replied in a hurt voice, playfully hitting her friend on the shoulder. "Jack and I are doing great," she continued, "I just want to give him some space. He hasn't seen his brothers in a long time and I don't want to intrude. Besides he knows I am here if he needs me and he knows how to ask."
"You have a guy who knows how to askfor help!" Lindsey asked mock astonished. She loved to give Jordan a hard time.
"Well, it may take him a while but he'll get around to it eventually" Jordan replied with a laugh. "His mom's death has been really hard on him and he needs some time to catch up with his brothers. They are really close but he hasn't seen them in forever. Hell, I just met them today if that gives you any idea how long it has been."
"Well, I can't believe my little Texan belle is hooked up with a Mercer boy. Jack may be the most well behaved one but those boys are trouble. They are still telling stories about the shit those boys used to get into. You better keep an eye on Jack."
"Jack is a big boy and can take care of himself. Anyway, I thought I was here to catch up with you and you haven't said a word about what is going on in your life." Jordan replied.
"Sure, way to change the subject. Just remember I warned you." Lindsey said only half joking as she proceeded to catch up with her old friend.
Hey guys, please let me know what you think! Any advice is welcome.
