“JOEY WHAT DID I SAY!?!”
Joey breathed hard. He glanced from the dying mother on the floor, to the glaring psychotic man glowering above her, to the door were his sister cried loudly.
“Joseph, please.”
Joey looked to the woman on the floor.
“Momma-”
“Do it boy and I'll KILL YA!” the man said. Joey inched away slowly. A screech went through the room and the crying stopped. Joey and the man looked to Janice Joey's mother. She laid there, her arm extended over her head. Blood pooled around her pale, limp body.
“LOOK WHAT YOU DID DAD! YOU KILLED MOM!” Joey got down and rocked his mom's head in his lap. Scott ran to the phone.
“Hello? Police? Yes I have an emergency. I came home and my son went crazy. He killed my wife. His mother.”
The sound of metal sliding woke Joey up. This was his 3rd night in Juvenile and he couldn't even bring himself to open his eyes. ~/ I'm so scared. Dat, dat lying BASTARD! I'm only 13! Now you might as well call my life...ov- LISTEN TO YA SELF HERE JOEY! You survived da worst of dat crazy man and ya loosin' it ova being in Juvie? /~ “It's time for you to go.” Joey looked up at the guard standing over him.
“Huh?”
“I said it's time for you to go, Now!” Joey stood as the guard drug Joey down the corridors. As the got to the lobby, he saw his sister. Her long auburn hair was neat and brushed. Her clothes looked new, freshly ironed. But her grubby face said otherwise. As she stood there looking down, a wave of fear came across him. Scott clutched Serenity's hand.
“SON! I'M SO GLAD TO SEE YOU!” ~/ drunk, lying bastards from hell UNITE! /~ He took Joey in his arms and hugged him.
“I knew you didn't do it!” Joey stood as still as a board. He didn't even miss the hard look in his fa- Scott's eyes as he stood.
“Mr. Wheeler, I need you to sign these release forms please.” Joey turned to Serenity as Scott got involved in chat.
“How has he been treatin' you?”
“H-he touched me. Joey he TOUCHED ME!” Joey clenched his fist and as soon as he was about to turn around, a firm hand clasped on his shoulder. He jumped and yelped.
“You ok son?” Joey sighed and slumped over.
“Yeah.”
“Alll-righty then let's go. We got a lot to do.” As he gripped Joey's and Serenity's hand, Joey turned pleading eyes back to the guard. ~/ The thought of life in jail has a nice ring to it/~
~Four years later~
“Get up you lazy sac of bones! TIME FOR SCHOOL!”
“Shut UP SCOTT!” Joey tumbled out of his bunk bed and slipped on his under shirt viciously. He looked at Scott who stood at the door.
“You got a problem, son?”
“No but it looks like ya have ONE DOUGH! CAN I GET DRESSED WIT OUT A PEEPIN' TOM!?” A fist connected with Joey's jaw.
“HAVE YOU LOST YOU'RE MIND!?! DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU'RE TALKING TO!?” He kicked a fallen Joey in the side numerous times. “GET UP! GET DRESSED! GO TO SCHOOL!”
He kicked Joey with every word in the sentences. Joey scrambled to get up, gripping the bed rail. Blood was now splattered on his shirt. He sighed as the door slammed and kicked the bed out of spite.
“N' I just washed da dang shirt to!” He pulled his button up uniform shirt on and slid on his pants, wincing as he zipped them up.
“Too....TIGHT!” Joey ran his hand around the waistband of his pants.
“Should've known. The heavy-handed doink.” It wasn't that his pants were too tight, it was because a previous beating left a swelling and hadn't quiet gone away yet. He grabbed his bookbag and stormed down the stairs.
“Let's go Ren.”
“Okay Joey.”
“Keep up with her Joey! It's her first year of High school and I don't want anything happing to her!”
“SINCE WHEN!?” Joey said grabbing a muffin and pulling Serenity out of the house.
“Joey you're going to get us in trouble.”
“Shut up Ren! You worry to dang much.” As they approached school, Serenity ran up to meet three freshmen boys named Ryo, Marik and Yugi. They had alter-ego's named Bakura, Malik, and Yami, who were classmates with Joey. They all sat on the front of the lawn talking and laughing. Their friends Mai and Isis joined them. Joey watched them with envy. He wished he could smile like them. A tall brown hair, brown eyed boy ran up o Joey. “YO YO JOEYSTER!”
He slapped his arm around Joey's shoulder and nudged his side. Joey winced while laughing alittle. “Hey Trish.”
“Man would you look at those niners? SO RETARDED! Let's go pick on them!”
“Sure, I need something to cheer up my day.” Tristan smiled proudly. Joey laughed. He loved his cousin. He seemed like the only one who understood him.
“Hello, hello LOOSERS!”
“How's ya'll day been? Feeling kinda happy? OH! Which one of ya'lls is gay again?” Joey said, stroking his chin as if thinking and they started laughing. (A/n: Tristan and Joey) Marik harden his jaw but Bakura spoke first.
“Wow JOEY! This is a real improvement! You used big WORDS!” Bakura clapped sarcastically and Marik chimed in eager to get back to Joey for making fun of the way he was.
“And you both seem pretty gay, always clinging to each other.” Laughs went through the gang and Tristan pushed off Joey. Isis smirked.
“Don't worry about them, Marik. Their just a bunch of suckers that only time enough to pick on people that want to be MORE than street filth.” Joey clenched his fist as howls and hisses went through the gang as Isis stood close to Joey, only inches away.
“No, I think ya wrong, little girl.” Joey new she was a sophomore. One of the hottest and smartest if you asked Joey.
“I'm not a sucka but I can give ya one to suck on!” Isis clenched her fist. ~/ I DARE HIM call me a little girl. Wow! I'm one grade under him. I'm surprised he's even IN a grade. /~
“Sorry, I don't eat suckers. Even if I did, I would eat blow pops instead of Dum Dums. Blow pops are bigger and leave you more satisfied.” Joey moved in.
“How would YOU know?”
“Most boys that talk about their stuff are insecure and only have about 4 inches worth of stuff. Like Bakura for instance!” Bakura snorted and leaned back.
“I don't know what you talking about Isis; I got the titanic down there.” The boys laughed as Mai popped Bakura in the head. Joey was shocked by her answer. Yeah she was right about ONE part. Yeah he was insecure but like Bakura ~/ I got the titanic! I guess I got to show her a lesson. /~ Joey closed the rest of the space between them and kissed her. He was sort of pleased to find her she tasted like Vanilla frappachino and mints. ~/Expensive taste.mmmmmmmmmmmmm, Cha-CHING! /~ He pulled away to see Isis still there, eyes closed and lips pursed.
“Ya got a little somedin right thur.” Joey said acknowledge her chin and turned to leave. The gang busted out laughing as Isis turned red and wiped her face.
“BRACE FACE GOT SOME ACTION!” Isis ran he tongue over her braces and glared at Yami.
“You're just jealous because the only action you get is from a book, the TV, or YOU'RE FINGERS!” Isis laughed with Mai and resumed her seat.
“So how was it?” Mai asked as she and Serenity huddled in close to her.
“He had a tongue ring!” Serenity gasped as Mai giggled.
“He's so HOT!”
“But he's a jerk.”
“SO!?”
“I don't lower my standards, Mai.” Isis picked up a book and started flipping through pages.
“Then I'm gonna get him!”
“Wait Mai NO-” Isis tried to grab Mai, but it was too late. Mai ran off in Joey's and Tristan's direction. “DANG IT!”
Mai walked spitefully to Isis locker.
“What's wrong Mai?”
“You're right, he IS a jerk. How could he turn THIS down? I mean what's his malfunction?”
Isis scoffed and closed her locker.
“Maybe you're not his type.”
“PA-LEASE! I'm everyone's ty-ooooooooooo.” Isis backed away.
“Nuhuh, I know what `ooooo' means. What?”
“When do you get you're braces off?”
“Thursday next week, after school. Why?”
“That's the day of the dance.”
“Mai n-”
“Nope too late! You're SO getting a make over as SOON as you get out of the dentist AND you will have a date!” Joey and Tristan walked towards them.
“And here he comes now!”
~Later~
“PLEASE!?”
“Why should I?”
“Because I know you like her!” Joey sighed.
“If I can get out of da house.”
“No if's, and's, or BUTS! It's either YES OR NO! So go ask you're parents, tonight and me the answer.....TONIGHT!”
“Right. Easier said dan done.”
“Ain't it the truth.” Tristan raised his milk carton and Mai shook her head.
