Chapter Four
Jack was lying on his bed; Amy could see him from her make shift room. Bobby had ordered Jack and Angel to take their old rooms; he would take their mothers room because Amy was to take Bobby's old room.
It was cozy but obvious that its previous resident was a teenage boy. There were posters of the Detroit Red wings on all the walls, not to mention posters of playmates. Amy couldn't help but laugh when she saw them.
She meandered down the hall and found herself standing in Jack's doorway. He looked up at her. "Hey," She smiled weakly. He stared at her for a while before returning the gesture. Bobby had told Amy only that Jack had had "a really fucked up childhood" before Evelyn found him.
"Hey," Not waiting to get an invitation into his room she went on in and sat on the end of his bed. He raised an eyebrow. Ignoring him, Amy looked around herself.
There were five speakers, seven different types of guitars, various posters of cars, women and sports teams. There was an old pair of hockey skates hanging on the back of the door. She found herself sitting in an uncomfortable silence that was only broken by the whining sounds of his guitar. She looked at him, he was studying her closely.
"Are you gay?" She blurted it out…it wasn't what she planned to say but it sorta popped out. When Amy was in an uncomfortable silence she had a habit of saying something really, really stupid. This was defiantly the stupidest to date.
He scowled at her. "No," He went back to his guitar.
"I mean, I figure I would just ask," He scowled at her. "I mean if I were you and I was gay," He scowl deepened. "And I am not saying you are or anything, but I wouldn't want to come out to Bobby." His scowl disappeared to a look of utter confusion. They fell back into an uncomfortable silence. "Yeah, I'll be going back to my room right about now." She got up and left quickly.
Jack had never met a girl quite like Amy before. When they were introduced she nearly floored him. She was dead sexy, and she was hanging out with Bobby, it was a contradiction of the laws of logic.
She was tallish and what a figure, Jack raked his hand threw his longish hair. Bobby had grabbed Jack's arm before they had gone into Jerry's, his words rang in Jacks house.
"Don't." Jack had stared at him confused. "I know that look, and if you even consider it I will have to hurt you little brother." Jack certainly had no idea what Bobby was talking about.
"Bobby, what are you-
"Don't give me that, you know what I mean, I saw the way you were looking at Amy," Jack had been shocked first and foremost at the fact that Bobby might actually be implying that Jack was in fact not gay! "Now I know you are gay and all but don't go experimenting on Amy." So much for that theory.
She had just left Jack's room. Oh good now she probably really thinks your gay. His attention was distracted when Bobby came into his room. Good, you're thinking about Amy way too much already.
"Too weird in mom's room?"
