-CHAPTER 6-
(The next day)
Jake stood behind the counter in his grandfather's shop, his face hidden behind a magazine. He tried to read but he could not ignore the anger boiling inside of him. First of all he was angry at Ron for trying to come between him and Rose, he was sure the Ron was aware of what he was doing. Secondly he was angry at Rose for giving in so easily as if she wasen't strong enough to resist him. Also he was angry at himself for thinking this whole sceam could work a second time when it didn't even work the first time not to mention because of it one of his best friends was almost killed.
Just then Rose walked into the shop; hi Jake, she said with a hopeful look on her face. Jake then looked over the top of the magazine, stared at her for a minute and then looked away without saying a word. Rose then continued, I know what your thinking, belive me it was unexpected, I guess I just found him charming, don't get me wrong what we have between us is special. Oh yah tell that to your knew boyfriend! he shouted, is it his looks or is it because you don't have a tendency to tare his skin and use it to make a pair of expensive boots.
Rose then replied close to tears, I gave that up for you. Jake continued yah and why just so you could dump me in a Kung Fu free situation. With that rose ran out the shop crying her eyes out. Jake went back to his magazine with one single tune buzzing in his head andfor thatone moment it made all the sence in the world to him,
I gave you my music . . .
made your song take wing . . .
and now, how you've
repaid me:
denied me
and betrayed me . . .
He was bound to love you
when he heard you sing . . .
You will curse the day
you did not do
all that the Phantom asked
of you . . .!
