Chapter 23: I Wonder If I Take You Home

"I'm not losing my mind I put the keys in my pocket." Sean said to Jimmy while they walked to the parking lot with Craig and girls following behind. "Maybe Jenny took it we haven't seen her all night."

"See you just proved my point." Jimmy exclaimed. "How could Jenny take the keys if she wasn't with us all night, it just doesn't make any sense. Sean just fess up like a man and just say tell everyone that you lost the keys."

"I would if I did but I didn't, I had them right here in my pocket." Sean patted his jeans.

"Shouldn't I be the one whose angry." Craig uttered "The car is mine." Sean and Jimmy looked at him. "I'm just saying that's all."

"Yeah, you should be angry," Jimmy exclaimed.

"Guys, guys," Hazel replied. "Take it easy you're getting worked up over nothing maybe their's a chance Sean did put the keys in his pocket and lost them."

"I didn't lose them," Sean exclaimed.

"OK, well maybe Jenny took them or.."

"Or there inside the car," Emma opened up the van door. "Craig is this you're van?"

"Yeah," Craig mumbled.

"See, Sean just forgot his keys." Paige exclaimed. "Problem solved; whose driving?"

"I didn't forget the keys," Sean exclaimed. "I'm telling you Jenny took them."

"It doesn't matter let's just go," Manny uttered.

"I'll drive," Craig replied while everyone got into the van.

"I can't believe this," Paige said inside the van. "That guy Lenny just leaves and he knows where that penthouse is and I need my brothers car back."

"Well I told you we should have just followed them instead of riding in that limo," Hazel stated.

"Hazel you never finished telling me the whole story about this J guy," Jimmy replied. "Who is he and why were you in his limo?"

"It's a long story," Hazel stated.

"And we have nothing but time," Jimmy said. "So you guys might as well start from the beginning.


"That's the whole story," Hazel replied while Jimmy opened up the front door to the house.

"Wow, so your mom doesn't know you're here." Craig exclaimed. "You betta hope she doesn't run into Joey." Craig glanced at Hazel and Paige.

I doubt that," Paige uttered. "Joey and my mom don't really travel in the same pack if you get my drift." Craig gave Paige a evil glare. "Wow, Jimmy I'm impressed remind me to tell your uncle he has great taste." Paige said while walking into the house.

"Yeah Jimmy this house is beautiful," Hazel uttered.

"It took him forever to fix this place up," Jenny walked down the stairs. "My mom thought he would never finish."

"Jenny what are you doing here," Jimmy exclaimed.

"I live here," Jenny replied "And I bought dinner for you guys it's in the kitchen." The gang walked into the kitchen and saw a full course meal on the table.

"Jenny if I wasn't starving I would ask you how you made it home before us, changed and bought dinner," Jimmy grabbed a plate.

"That's easy I took a cab home, ordered delivery and changed until the food arrived. Well," Jenny yawned. "I'm bushed I'll see you guys in the morning." Jenny walked past the group and glanced at Manny. "Nice dress."

"Umm thanks," Manny mumbled.

"That's Jenny," Hazel exclaimed after Jenny went upstairs.

"Yeah," Jimmy said in between bites in his meal.

"You never told me she was gorgeous." Hazel replied.

"Hazel," Jimmy replied. "You're not jealous are you?"

"Of course I'm not it's just," Hazel paused. "Just hand me a plate I'm starving."


"I'm stuffed I think I overate." Manny held her stomach while they walked in the room Jimmy showed them too.

"We'll I guess we're roommates." Emma sat on the queen size bed.

"Yeah it looks that way." Manny glanced at her nails.

"Don't you think it's kind of weird?"

"What is?"

"You know sleeping under the same roof as our ex's"

"Kind of but I don't really want to think about it." Manny sat on the bed. "At least not tonight I just want to get some sleep." Manny pulled the covers back and climbed into the bed. "But not until you tell me everything that happened with you and J on the dance floor."


"Why do the guys get a room to themselves and we have to share." Paige complained. "No offense Haze but sometimes you're snore." Hazel rolled her eyes. "I just can't figure out why Jenny is sleeping here in the main house instead of the pool house."

"Jimmy told me he thinks his father wants her to keep and eye on him." Hazel replied.

"And don't tell me you bought that."

"Why not, even though Jenny is gorgeous, tall, older possibly more mature and somewhat famous doesn't mean Jimmy would leave me for her besides Jimmy always talked about how he couldn't stand her."

"Yeah, but that was before she became a knockout."

"Maybe but I have to trust him, right?"

"Yeah, I guess I'm just glad we got here when we did," Paige sat onto the king sized bed. "Just to be on the safe side."

"Paige, let's just get some sleep." Hazel replied.

"I just can't see why she didn't sleep in the pool house." Paige looked outside the window at the pool house a light that was on turned off. "Hmm that was weird," Paige uttered.

"What is, Paige," Hazel asked while turning off her lamp and pulling the covers over her.

"Nothing it must be automatic lights or something." Paige pulled the covers over her and turned off the her lamp
