Jimmy gives me an escort back to my place because I was still a little shaken up about my life almost ending. The second I walk through the door Beth sees me and freaks due to the blood on my shirt as she automatically assumes the worst. Oh my god what happened?! She yells. Bethany...calm down sweetheart I'm okay, the worst injury I have is a cut on my leg.
Then whose blood is that? How in the fuck did your leg get cut? When I found Charles he tried to kill me and I defended myself. Beth still had a worried face so I kept explaining what happened. As I was leaving he pulled a knife on me and I elbowed him in the gut making bend over and drop the knife.
That still doesn't tell me where the cut on your leg or the blood on your shirt came from. I was getting there, after he dropped the knife I picked it up and stabbed him and when I did he tried to shoot me with my gun while it was still in the holster and the bullet scraped my leg. Okay so that's how your leg got cut, now what about the blood? Charles had me on the ground and was holding me at gunpoint. Jimmy here walked in and saw the situation and reacted...the blood on my shirt is from Charles, not me.
Beth turns and gives Jimmy a hug, Thank you so much Mr.? Oh uh just call me sheriff, says jimmy. Beth smiles and says, Thanks sheriff. Not problems miss just doing my job. Still, I don't know what I'd do without Matt. Well you could start by taking over my company, I say. Beth and jimmy both have a look of disbelief on their faces. What's that supposed to mean? Says Beth.
I'd prefer you have my company than some majority stockholder. If you were to die, said jimmy, then she would be the majority stockholder. No shit? Yup, unless she sold her shares. You are the smartest redneck I've ever met you know that? What you mean? I don't have a red neck. I facepalm at this. I guess you aren't so smart after all, I think.
As jimmy is leaving he says, hey uh matt? Yeah, I say. If y'all ever need anything let me okay buddy? Thanks man, I appreciate it. I'm serious man...anything at all, just call me. I chuckle, okay Jim it's starting to get a little now. Jimmy bursts out laughing. You are something else ya know that? Yeah I know. See ya around. See you later.
