| Ike what the hell?" Taylor asked, trying to get him to take a breath and start over, but Jamie understood all too well what Issac had just said to her. "She WALKED IN on them?" Jamie roared, her face twisting into an angry expression. "Ike are you POSITIVE?" she demanded, just as another vehicle pulled up behind her van. "Yeah, Jame, I am positive." Ike sighed and ran a worried hand through his touseled curls, "JOSH told me himself." "Shit." Jamie muttered and turned to see who the unknown vehicle belonged to. 'Oh holy fuck...I do NOT have time for this shit now...' Jamie thought to herself, as Johnny's muscled body slowly emerged from the black sports car. Jamie rolled her eyes and took a deep breath when she recognized the expression on Taylor's face. "Hey Jame..." John came striding toward her with a slight smirk on his face. "What the fuck are you smirkin' at, Rzeznik? You fucking deaf polak. Did I not tell you I would see you on MONDAY?" Jamie snapped and turned back to Ike. "How long have you been looking for her, Ike?" Jamie asked, pointedly ignoring John and the way he and Taylor were eyeing each other. Jade was missing and at this moment she decided that was all that mattered to her. She knew her friend was hurting and she wanted to make sure she was all right. "All freakin' day, Jame." Ike answered her, too involved in his own worries about Jade to grasp the rest of the situation. "I tried calling but Tay's phone is off and when I called you there was no answer." he told her. "You hung up too soon, dude." Taylor told his brother and wondered if John was going to bring up the fact that he'd spoken to Taylor also. "I grabbed the phone, but by the time I did you'd already hung up. Jame was out cold." he finished quickly with a smirk in Jamie's direction. "I've been trying to get hold of you too, Vaughn." John stated, matter-of-factly. "Get your lazy ass out of bed at a decent hour for a change and you MIGHT get all your messages." he grinned at Jamie, but shot a quick look in Taylor's direction. Jamie looked at Taylor and back at John, then shook her head, hard. "Wait...what the fuck? You CALLED me?" she asked John again. "Uh-huh. I left a message with.." he looked directly at Taylor.."Taylor? Right?" Taylor nodded once and looked down at Jamie. "We were kinda busy, Jame. I must have forgot." he gave Jamie a wicked grin and looked pointedly at John. "Sorry man." he shrugged and stuffed his hands into his pants pockets. "Jesus.." Jamie muttered, disgusted by the amount of male hormone floating in the atmosphere. "What did you want, Johnny? My best friend is missing and it isn't under good circumstances.." she snapped, suddenly very angry with Taylor and JOHN. "Business, Jamie. I need to talk tour dates with you.." he gave Jamie a slight smirk and looked back at Taylor, while Ike stood gaping at the whole scene unfolding before him. "Good lord...I CAN'T DO THAT now John. Can't it wait? At least a few hours? I need to find Jade..." she barked, then looked at Isaac in desperation. She knew if she looked at either Taylor, or John, she would probably blow a gasket and too many people would get hurt by what spilled out of her mouth. Ike looked dumbfounded, and shrugged his shoulders."I dunno where to look for her anymore, Jame.." he murmured, unsure of how to proceed. Ike wanted to find Jade and make sure she was okay more than anything, but he was also worried about what was going to happen right here in the driveway. He knew Taylor was NOT happy about Johnny showing up now, and he also KNEW that the phone call did NOT just slip Tay's mind. "Jamie, I can't wait too much longer for an answer.." Johnny was saying, "and how can you answer me when you haven't even heard the offer?" John was still shooting Taylor glances between knowing smirks at Jamie, and Taylor wanted to grab him by the neck and rip his head off. "Okay..." Jamie ran her hand through her hair and looked over at John. "I HAVE to find..." Just at that moment Jade's car pulled in behind John's sporty black rental. Jade emerged from her car, disheveled and puffy eyed, making a beeline straight for Jamie. |
