Alrighty! I might not post for a little while longer. Reason: My dad works at a railroad, fixing trains and such, and then a new company came and took over. So a few days ago they told him to do a very dangerous procedure, and right now, he is in the hospital, with two holes in his right elbow. It got infected, his arm is swollen, and I'm worried sick. ) : So sadly this will be a short chapter.
On a lighter note, I want to thank all of you for reading this and bearing with me. It makes me really happy to see all these wonderful reviews. (hands all of you brownies) and now on to the fic!
When Jack awoke a little while later, it took him a minute to realize he was alone. He sighed, sat up, then stood…only to fall back on the bed when he felt a burst of pain shoot through his leg.
'Oh, right. Forgot about my ankle.' Jack looked down to see it was bandaged. It was also written on.
'Hope ur ankle feels better soon! Took care of Wuya for u too! –Z' Jack shook his head and got up again, careful on his ankle. He opened his door and looked around. No redheaded witch in sight. It was safe. That's when his stomach decided to be heard as it grumbled loudly.
"Guess its time for dinner." He headed down a hall to see if he could find the dining room.
"JACK!!" Jack turned around and was crushed in a powerful hug from Zena. "How are you feeling?"
"Fine. Do you know where the dining hall is? Just woke up and I'm kinda hungry."
"Well for starters, you're going the wrong way," Jack gave her an embarrassed smile, "and second it's time for dinner anyway. So come on!" Zena grabbed Jack's arm and led him down a different hallway. They ended up in front of a gigantic door. Zena was about to open it when Jack pulled her back.
"What are you doing?" Zena asked him.
"I don't want to go in there."
"Why?"
"1:Chase will be there, 2: Wuya will be there, 3:Chase will be there!"
"…This is because you were sleeping in his arms earlier isn't it?" Jack looked shocked for a moment, and then glared at her. "No it's not!"
"Yes it is."
"No it's not!"
"Yes it is!"
"No, It isn't"
"No it isn't"
"YES IT IS AND THAT'S FINAL!!" Jack screamed and turned from the girl. "Ok Jack, I agree, it is the reason why you won't go inside." Jack straightened up when he realized he had been tricked, turned to give a comeback, but Zena was already inside. Jack sighed, and followed her.
Just as he said, Chase and Wuya were there. Wuya saw him walk in and glared. Jack sat down next to Zena, keeping his eyes on Wuya to make sure she didn't try to pull anything. When he looked over at Chase, however, Jack quickly looked down at his plate. He kicked Zena in the shin when she started giggling.
"How's you're ankle?" Jack jumped at the sudden question, almost falling out of his chair. Zena laughed. Jack kicked her again, just a bit harder, which made he stop laughing. "You're just like Alex…" He heard her mutter. He had no idea what she meant by that, but decided to question it later.
"How's your ankle?" Chase asked again. Jack quickly turned his gaze down.
"It's fine. Thanks." He quickly grabbed some food and placed it on his plate.
"So, you never told us why we were invited…?" Zena asked quickly, realizing how uncomfortable Jack was. She narrowed her eyes in suspicion when Chase changed the subject.
"Wuya, why exactly were you chasing Spicer earlier?" Chase asked Wuya, who paused in mid bite. She swallowed her food and began.
"He told that girl to come and torment me so he could have payback on me!" Jack looked insulted, Zena choked on her water. "WHAT??" Both gave her equal looks of shock and anger.
"No he didn't! That's a lie!" Zena stood and put her hands on her hips. "That makes no sense! He's already scared shit of you, pardon my language, so why would he want to make you angry with him??" When Wuya didn't reply, Zena knew she won.
"…umm…I think I'm going to go back to my room." Jack pushed the chair back, stood up, then started to walk out of the dining room. Wuya, who was at the other end of the table, stuck out her foot, causing Jack to trip. That was enough to push Zena past her limits. She jumped out of her chair and rushed towards the witch. Wuya, learning her lesson the last two times, quickly rushed out of her seat and towards the door. Jack got up just in time to see Zena run out the door.
"Ok…that was weird…" Jack sat up and looked back at Chase, who just looked at the door where the two ladies ran out. He looked at Jack, which made the boy look down. "Why do you keep looking down when I look at you Spicer?" Jack snapped his head up and looked at Chase, blush covering his cheeks and an embarrassed smile was on his face once again.
"I have no idea what you're talking about. I never looked away." Chase arched and eyebrow at Jack's strange behavior, then hook his head. "Never mind." Jack took the time to get up from the floor. "Thanks for dinner." Jack said as he limped out the door, shutting it behind him.
'Ok Jack, calm down. It was just Chase, nothing to be nervous about, he wasn't going to rip you head off.' Jack told himself. 'If it was nothing, then why do I feel like my heart is ready to burst??' Jack shook his head, walking away, not knowing that Chase was dealing with the same problem inside the other room.
