I wanna know what love it Chp 10


"I almost shot his head clean off his body"

"That's crazy" DeMarco said. They were sitting in their second period class
and supposed to be working on an assignment but they both had finished
early. "Kinda stupid of him to be creeping in at 2 in the morning"

"Yeah it was" Jules said, his eyes trailed off like he was lost in thought
and had a silly grin on his face.

"Oh shit" DeMarco said after noticing the look on Jules's face.

"What?"

"I know that look"

"What look?"

"Is this Kodi hot?"

Jules blushed and averted his eyes.

"Ah ha, thought so"

"What are you getting at DeMarco?"

"You got all googly eyed talking about him"

Jules blushed again.

"Don't turn into some kind of slut Jules, you're better then that"

"What are you talking about?" Jules said shocked.

"First there is Caden who likes you a lot and I know you like him too, then
there is Dustin and you just told me about the steamy make-out session you
guys had last night and then you get all crazy eyed talking about this
college guy who is living in your pool house.  Pick one and only one, that
way you don't hurt anyone and you don't get hurt yourself"

Jules knew he was right and he wasn't going to argue, what Jules didn't
know was that DeMarco was silently feeling bad for Aiden. Jules knew he
needed to narrow his focus to someone; on one hand there was Caden, who was
so small and cute and smart a really nice boy and on the other hand there
was Dustin, who was dead fucking sexy and passionate and openly
affectionate. He put the notion of Kodi out of his head for now because he
knew nothing about the beautiful Native boy.

There were things about Caden and Dustin that Jules both liked and
disliked. He didn't like the fact that outside of Martial Arts, he and
Dustin have much in common. Yes the heat between them was intense, but
where would they be when that died down. Jules liked that fact that they
had different interests but outside of kissing, they would have nothing to
talk about. Caden and Jules had a lot in common, they liked the same TV
shows and movies, and they even liked the same music which was cool for
Jules because he friends really didn't care of his wide range of musical
likes.

What he didn't care for in particular was that Caden was only 14 and a
freshman, though he was very cute and slightly more mature then kids his
age, Jules was 16 but had a higher IQ then most adults in the world and was
graduating high school that year. He felt bad that he would prejudice Caden
for that fact, but that was just it...it was a fact.

"My mom is going out of town for the weekend and I don't want to stay at
home alone, I was wondering if I could crash with you this weekend?"

"I would have figured you would have wanted to be alone with Amy for the
weekend"

"Um...well...no not really" he said, not sure how to approach the subject.

"Explain" Jules said.

"I like Amy a lot, its boarding on love even though we haven't been
together that long"

"I can tell" Jules said.

"Well we have gotten pretty hot and heavy, real heavy to be exact. After
having sex with her a few times was when I started to feel that I might
really love her, so I don't want our relationship to be only about sex. I
care way too much for her, so I told her we needed to cool down on the sex
and really work on being a couple"

"You sound like a woman" Jules said behind laughter.

"Shut up man, I'm being serious"

"So what did she say?"

"She agreed but we have to be around people, we can't seem to keep our
hands off each other if we are alone for long periods of time"

"That's very noble of you, and yes you can stay over as long as you like, I
just hope you don't mind my nudity around the house, I'm not going to be
uncomfortable in my own home to make someone else comfortable" he said
sincerely.

"Jules you never wear clothes at home, I have gotten used to your
nakedness. I see you naked more then I see myself naked" he chuckled.

The rest of the school day was spent at ease, Jules had lunch with his
friend with both Caden and Dustin included. This time Dustin sat across
from him at the table instead of next to him. Jules wondered why the change
but didn't say anything about it, so he spent most of his lunch in
conversation with Caden, though he could feel Dustin staring at him.

Jules and Caden made plans to hang out again the coming weekend and then
parted ways after lunch was over. After school; Dustin was waiting for
Jules by his Range Rover, without saying anything, he climbed in after
Jules unlocked the door for him and they drove off towards home.

"So...crazy about you almost shooting that guy last night, maybe I should
have stayed over and been there to protect you" Dustin said with a grin.

"Maybe you should have, but I still think it would have been a bad idea"

"So what should we do today? I don't have any homework I need help with and
I think we are pretty good with conditioning before we start training, so
today is a free day"

"It's Thursday, I have nothing planned"

"I have an idea of what we could do" Dustin said with a sly grin.

"I'm sure you do" Dustin said as he turned into his rounded driveway.

"No, I'm serious. Why don't you let me cook you dinner and then we can curl
up and rent something from Netflix"

"Um...oh wow that sounds great"

"You thought all I wanted to do was smooch on you all night hoping that it
would lead somewhere else"

"Well, yeah I did"

"Well maybe after dinner, if you're lucky" Dustin said with a sly grin.

Dustin got right to work cooking dinner while Jules sat and watched, amazed
at his skills in the kitchen. He roasted a chicken, baked some potatoes and
made a nice salad. Against Jules's better judgment; he brought up a bottle
of a dry white wine from his dad's wine cellar in the basement. Jules lit
some candles and placed them on the table in the formal dinning room,
uncorked the wine and set the table. Dustin brought in the food and they
sat down to eat.

"This is delicious" Jules said as he savored the food.

"Thanks, I'm glad you like it" he said, very pleased with himself.

"This had turned into a date hasn't it?" Jules asked.

"Well that was my intension"

"You don't waste any time do you?"

"I go for what I want when I want it" Dustin said matter-of-factly.

"And what is it that you want?"

"You"

"And what do you want with me?" Jules asked.

"What do you mean?"

"What is your purpose for wanting me? Is it for sex? Or do you want me as a
boyfriend?  Or do you want me for some casual dating?"

"I uh...um...oh uh...I" he stammered.

"Not a good sign Dustin" Jules said in a serious tone.

"I like you Jules, a lot. I want a friendship with you that could grow into
something more"

"That was a nice save" Jules chuckled. "To be honest; I ended a long
relationship that ended badly and I almost stumbled back into that
relationship just recently, so I'm not sure how much I should allow myself
to become attached to another person. I have some trust issues that I'm
trying to deal with"

"I understand that" Dustin said "I know you are going through some things
and I don't want to rush you, it wouldn't be fair to either of us. But that
doesn't mean that I'm not going to try, what kind of man would I be if I
didn't try?"

Jules smiled at his comment, his determination was a turn on. The more he
thought about it the more he realized how mature Dustin was being about the
situation, he knew Caden was not at a level to handle himself on the level
that Jules needed. He leaned across the table the kissed Dustin on the
lips, he felt the kiss growing in intensity and pulled away before he
tackled Dustin to the ground. They enjoyed the rest of their meal then went
into the family room to watch something on TV. They settled on ordering a
few episodes of Weeds, Jules snuggled into Dustin as they got comfortable
on the couch.

The show was hilarious, Jules asked Dustin if he smoked weed, he said he
did but not before a tournament because they drug screen sometimes. Jules
made a mental note not to smoke another joint until after the upcoming
tournament. After the watched the episodes they ordered, Dustin helped
Jules clean the kitchen and put the dirty dishes in the dish washer. Time
was winding down and Jules knew he would have to take Dustin home since
they had one more day of school left.

On the way to Dustin's home, they discussed plans for the weekend. Jules
told him that DeMarco was staying over for the weekend and Caden was also
coming to hang out.  Dustin could tell that Caden liked Jules and vice
versus, he asked Jules about it; Jules told him that he did like Caden but
wasn't sure yet if it was as a friend or something more.  Dustin
appreciated his honesty but was silently taken aback by the fact that Jules
might like another boy, Jules then told him that he was probably just drawn
to him because he was small and timid like him and Jules felt the need to
wanna be his friend and to rescue him. That settled Dustin's nerves a bit
and he understood the feeling. Dustin kissed him good night and walked into
the house with a skip in his step.

His uncle was waiting up for him with his girlfriend, who is one of the
schools secretaries. He asked his nephew about his evening and then
informed Dustin not to hurt Jules, he told him that he and Jules's father
were good friends and Jules was a great young man who has been through more
then a young kid his age should go through.  Kripke knew he nephew was a
bit of a player back in Montreal and he didn't want there to be any
problems here.

When Jules got home, he noticed Kodi sitting outside by the front of the
pool house playing the guitar. He walked out towards Kodi to take a closer
listen, he recognized the song instantly; it was Shake It Off by Florence
and the Machine.

"I love that song" Jules said, startling Kodi causing him to jump and stop
playing.

"I didn't see or hear you walk up, that's crazy" he said with a smile.

"I guess my father and my Sifu have trained me well"

"I'll say"

"I'm sorry for pulling my gun on you"

"It's ok" Kodi said "you didn't know it was me, don't worry about it" he
said with a smile, that same smile he shot at Jules the night before, a
smile that could stop a bullet dead in its tracks. Jules found himself
staring at Kodi again and had to move the conversation along.

"You play beautifully and that was one of my favorite songs" Jules said.

"It's mine too, the lyrics really hit me with something I just recently
gone through"

"Me too" Jules said as he recalled his situation with Christian.

Kodi started playing the song again on his guitar; Jules pulled up a patio
chair and sat down next to him. Jules began to sing the lyrics to the song
causing Kodi to smile as he continued to play, he chimed in to ass his
vocals along side Jules and made perfect harmony and ended the song with
smiles on their faces.

"Now that was beautiful" Kodi said.

"Thank you" Jules said wiping light tears from his eyes.

"I see music is very meaningful to you like it is to me" Kodi said.

"Yeah, I really get into the meaning of the lyrics and I associate certain
songs with things that have gone on in my life"

"Me too" Kodi said slightly excited "but isn't that the point of good
music"

They started talking and found out they shared the same taste in music,
from hip hop to R&B, British pop and rock even to jazz and deep house. Kodi
went on to explain he was a natural talent when it came to playing
instruments and learning music even though his major in college was
criminology. Jules on the other hand couldn't play an instrument to save
his life but loved to sing. They sat talking and getting to know each
other, Jules told Kodi he was 16 and was graduating high school early with
many colleges already vying for his attendance and Kodi told him that he
was 18 and his father lived and worked on the nearest reservation as the
local police force captain.

It was getting late and Jules told Kodi that he should hang out with him
and his friends that weekend if he didn't have any plans; Kodi agreed but
said he needed to get started on tending to the grounds of the Barrett
estate. Jules told him not to worry about it until the following week and
that it shouldn't be a problem because Stellan was out of town until God
knows when and Jules was running the household in his absence as per usual.

That night Jules had a really bad nightmare that resulted in him screaming
at the top of his lungs, the bad thing about this nightmare was Jules was
aware that it was a dream but he couldn't seem to wake himself up out of it
like he normally had. Suddenly he felt his body being shaken and someone
telling him to wake up, his eyes flew open and he sat up- right. He
couldn't breath and his eyes were finding it difficult to adjust even
though he could tell that there was a light on, he came out of his
nightmare into a full fledged panic attack.

He slid off the bed onto the floor and pushed himself into a corner and
brought his knees up to his chest and started to rock himself back and
forth but this time he couldn't seem to calm himself down. Usually when
they got this bad, Damian was the only person in the world who could calm
him down. His eyes became watery and his breathing became more labored and
he was getting light headed, he was starting to really hyperventilate. He
noticed someone sit on the floor in front of him and start speaking but he
couldn't make out who it was nor could he make out was the person was
saying.

Kodi was still awake and sitting outside at 2 am when he heard blood
curdling screams coming from the main house. He ran the short distance to
the back door but found it locked, every entrance he tried was locked and
figured Jules had also set the alarm. He tried to pin point where the
screaming was coming from and realized it was coming from a large bedroom
on the second floor, he looked closer and saw that the balcony doors to the
bed room was still open.

He scaled the beams of the deck and entered the bedroom through to glass
doors, he turned on the nearest light he could find and found Jules having
a really bad nightmare.  He was screaming and thrashing, Kodi didn't know
what else to do other then to shake him and try to get him to wake
up. Finally it worked, but something worse seemed to be happening. Jules
was hyperventilate and seemed like he couldn't breathe or understand what
was going on. After he crawled into a corner, Kodi sat in front of him,
wrapped Jules's legs around his waist and pulled him close. Kodi grabbed
Jules's hand and placed it on his chest and started slowly speaking to him.

"Jules, I want you to try and focus on feeling the beat of my heart"

Jules couldn't understand what he was saying; his head was becoming dizzier
from his labored breathing so he tried to focus more on what he was saying.

"It's ok; you'll be fine, just try and relax your mind. Look at me in my
eyes and try to focus on feeling my heart beat with your hand"

Jules looked up into Kodi's eyes and caught his calm gaze, which started to
relax him a little.

"That's it, keep looking at me and try to feel my heart beat with your
hand"

Jules could start to feel Kodi's heart beat, his breathing was starting to
slowly even out but his chest was still tight from his heart beating so
fast and his ears were still ringing.

"Can you feel my heart beat?" Kodi asked in a soothing tone.

Jules nodded.

"Ok, now I want you to tune everything else out and focus solely on my
heart beat but keep you eyes on mine"

Jules did just that, his eyes remained on Kodi and his hand remained on his
chest. Jules pushed out the ringing in his ears and the light coming from
his desk lamp and even pushed passed the tightness in his chest. He could
feel the beating his Kodi's heart beat more pronounced now; it was like the
beating of a soft drum. The tightness in his chest vanished and his
breathing slowly returned to normal, the ringing in his ears had stopped.

"Now put your other hand on your chest and feel your own heart beat"

Jules did as he was told.

"Can you feel that?" Kodi asked.

"They are almost in sync" he said surprised "how did you do that?"

"I didn't do anything, you did all the work. I just guided you; my sister
suffers from severe panic attacks like I think you do, so I know how to
bring her back"

"You sure it's not some Native American mojo magic?" Jules asked with a
grin.

"It might be, my grandmother taught it to me"

Kodi helped a still naked Jules get back into bed and tucked him in, Jules
was out within seconds. Kodi made a mental note to do a sage cleansing of
Jules's bedroom and to give him a dreamcatcher to place in his window; he
left the desk lamp of and climbed down from the patio.

********************************

Later that morning, Jules woke up a little early for a run. That particular
nightmare he experienced exhausted him both mentally and emotionally and he
needed to run it out before it drove him crazy. He usually didn't remember
the details of nightmares when he woke in the morning, but this one was
sticking to him bad and he was thankful today was Friday.

The school day went as normal or what was now becoming normal, he was still
getting stares and whispers from some of the student body, though he hoped
the news of his attack and the imprisonment of the West brothers would have
died off by now. He still got the occasional "faggot" or "cocksucker"
thrown at him here and there, but no one was big enough to say it directly
to him and no one dared shove him into walls anymore which he was happy
about. More people were beginning to be friendlier with him, which was
weird because he wasn't use to it but it was also nice. He guessed Amy was
right about people being scared to talk to him before because of what
Joshua West and his crew would do to them.

Joshua's crew, with John Fairbanks in the lead position; was fumbling to
keep up with the bullying that Joshua was known for. Most people would
stand for John's antics, though he was a big football jock who could appear
scary at times, everyone know that his tough guy routine was just an act,
he was easy to read. But that didn't mean that he and his boys didn't cause
their own trouble.

That day at lunch, Caden seemed to be a little distressed but he didn't
want to talk about despite Jules constantly nagging him to tell him what
the problem was. Finally frustrated with constant questioning from his new
friend, Caden got up and said he didn't want to get anyone involved and
walked out of the cafeteria. Jules was determined to find out what was
going on.

Jules usually went home after fourth period because he only had four
classes, but that day he decided to stay late. Vice-Principal Kripke was
out of a secretary that day and Jules filled in with any office help he
needed, during which; Kripke gave him a brief outline of what the new
training regime would be like since they were starting the following week
and the tournament being three and a half weeks away.

Jules stayed late to wait for Dustin who had wrestling tryouts. He sat in
the gym and silently cheered him on while watching his tryouts; Dustin was
a natural in the 145 weight class. After tryouts were over, Dustin and
Jules left the gym and headed for the student parking lot cutting through
the B-wing of the campus. The halls were empty as school had been out for
almost an hour. While walking through the empty hall, they suddenly heard a
scream echo through the building causing them to stop short.

"Oh my God, what was that?" Dustin asked.

"Someone screamed"

They screamed again but Jules couldn't see where it came from, they
screamed again and Jules tried to listen to see where it was coming
from. It was coming for a corridor on the other side of the building.

"Please stop" the person cried out in pain. Jules recognized the voice
instantly.

"It's Caden" he said as he sprinted in the direct the screaming came from
with Dustin right on his heels. He ran down the hall and made a right and
continued down an other long hallway following Caden's voice until he seem
him being kicked and stomped by five members of John Fairbank's crew, John
included.

Jules flew at the crowd and launched himself into the air and kicked one of
the boys hard in the back, he crumbled to the ground instantly. Another one
of boys turned in horror and was met with Dustin's fist in his eye and then
again in his jaw and then a third time in the ribs. Two down, three to
go. The next boy, who had just kicked Caden in the nuts turned to face
Jules, he recognized him as one of the school's linebackers. He charged at
Jules with his arms spread and his chest open which was a bad move, he
caught a front kick to the solar plexus, he fell the his knees gasping for
air but was quickly back to his feet again. Jules planted a two-handed palm
strike to both his ears, causing him to collapse in immense pain.

The fourth guy advanced on Dustin, they were the same size and he clearly
knew a thing or two. He was throwing some really good punches but only one
stuck before Dustin grabbed him arm, he flipped him over his back and onto
the group, you could hear the pop of his shoulder dislocating. John was
standing there alone as he crew of bullies laid defeating and crying in
pain on the ground before him, he took of running but didn't get too
far. Dustin grabbed the back of his shirt and yanked him backwards, as he
spun around his face was met with a roundhouse by Jules.

Caden lay in the corner glassy eyed, coughing up blood and covered in
growing welts and bruises. Dustin ran to his side and tore off his shirt to
wipe away the blood; Jules was too in shock to move. The sight of Caden
laying there reminded him too much of what happened to him. The images of
his own attack flashed before his eyes as he started to cry and shake all
over. Jules heard something behind him and spun around on his defenses, he
noticed Mr. Leroy was standing in his standing in the door way to his
classroom watching the scene. Jules thought back for a moment and
remembered that Mr.  Leroy has also been standing there watching, doing
nothing as the boys beat on Caden.

"You stood there and did nothing" Jules yelled at the science teacher.

"Don't yell at me Mr. Barrett or you'll be in a world of trouble" he said
slightly nervous.

"For what?" he Jules yelled again.

"For brutally beating five students"

"What about them? What about them brutally beating Caden"

"I didn't see them do anything" Mr. Leroy said rather crossly.

"How about I kick you ass like I did them, would you see that?" Jules spat.

"You wouldn't dare" he said slightly shaken "besides the little fag boy got
what he deserved...just like you did"

Jules saw red and his blood boiled over, he charged at Mr. Leroy fully
intent and beating the shit out of him. The science teacher darted back
into his room and locked the door before Jules could get to him; Jules
pounded on the door screams threats of bodily harm on the teacher. The only
thing to pull him to his senses what Dustin yelling at him to get some
help, he ran out of the building straight to the school office, he returned
with Dustin's uncle, the nurse and a couple of security guards.

"Oh dear lord, what happened" Mr. Kripke said as he walked in the hall and
seen his nephew holding an almost unconscious Caden.

"We were on our way to Jules' house" Dustin said, Jules was still in shock
to say anything "we heard him screaming for his life, we ran to him and saw
those five bastards over there kicking and stomping the shit out of him so
we leapt into action"

"Ok don't say anything else" Mr. Kripke said cutting off his nephew. He had
the security call the paramedics as Dustin moved aside so the nurse could
take a look at Caden. Three separate teams of paramedics showed up to tow
the six injured boys to the hospital. Mr.  Kripke ran and got Corrine, who
was still at school for a student council meeting, so she could ride with
her brother to the hospital. Kripke told Jules and Dustin to go home to
Jules's house and to stay there until he came for them but Jules refused,
he said he was going to the hospital. Kripke saw the intensity in his eyes
and recognized it as the same intensity Stellan had and he knew there was
no arguing. Before they left, Jules pointed to the locked door that
Mr. Leroy was hiding behind.

"That fucker in there watched the whole thing and didn't do anything to
stop it, he told me that little fag boy deserved it and that I also
deserved what happened to me" Jules said to Mr. Kripke. The vice principal
used his master key to open the door and found Mr.  Leroy hiding in his
classroom and asked him to step into the hall. Jules told Mr. Kripke how he
asked why Mr. Leroy didn't do anything to stop the beating of Caden and how
he replied that he didn't see anything when he clearly did.

"I will see you outside of school Mr. Leroy, and God help you when I do"

"Did you hear him, he just threatened me. You're going to jail for that you
little shit"

"I didn't hear anything Mr. Leroy" Mr. Kripke said "now if you'll come with
me to my office"

Dustin grabbed his gym bag and wrapped his arm around Jules, who is still
shaking in anger and walked him out to the student parking lot. It took the
keys from Jules and drove them to the hospital because Jules was too upset
to drive. They got to the hospital and found Corrine and her parents in the
waiting room. Upon seeing Jules; Corrine ran to him and grabbed him into a
hug, they both started crying. Finally Mr. Stallworth broke up the hug and
asked what happened.

"We only got to see him briefly, but all he said was you and Dustin saved
him"

Jules and Dustin told him about what happened and what they did to the boys
who attacked him. They thanked the boys for coming to Caden's rescue but
wished violent measures didn't have to be met. Jules's anger subsided some,
now he was impatiently waiting to hear some news on how Caden was
doing. While waiting; Dustin got a text message and was surprised to see it
was from DeMarco.

`Are you with Jules?' it read.

`Yes, I'm with him at the hospital' he replied.

Within minutes Amy, DeMarco and Aiden rushed into the waiting room all in a
panic.  They were relieved to see that Jules was physically alright and
sitting with Dustin and the others. All Dustin's text message said was that
they were at the hospital, so they thought the worst and ran right over
since the hospital was right down the street from Jules's house where they
were waiting for him.

They were shocked and quite angry to hear about what happened to Caden; Amy
ran to Corrine and put her arm around her. They didn't know each other all
that well, but anyone could use a friend at a time like this and Amy was
that type of person. DeMarco said he was becoming irritated with having to
be at the hospital because jerks like to bully people who are smaller then
them. He had to do it with his brother before he committed suicide, he had
to do it when Jules was attacked and he had to do it now because of
Caden. He had just met him recently but Caden was already starting to rub
off on him, plus DeMarco liked playing to big brother role to anyone who
would let him.

After waiting for about an hour, a group of parents charged into the
waiting room followed by a couple of police officers.

"I want these two boys arrested for brutally assaulting all our kids" one
of the fathers said.

"What?" Jules shouted as he jumped out of his seat "You five asshole
children jumped a 14 year old freshman who is here in this hospital, the
doctors still have come out to tell his parents how bad it is" he yelled,
getting into the man's face. "They stomped him and kicked him, and he is
small like me. Are you proud of your kids for picking on someone smaller
then them?"

"Well maybe he deserved it, I heard the boy was a fag anyway" the father
said.

That was the second time that day that Jules heard that same
comment. Caden's father and Jules's friends all started yelling at the man
who was suddenly surprised at the confrontation his comment caused. Jules
became physically angry again and pulled his fist back to hit him, Aiden
sensing the attack grabbed Jules by the waist and pulled him back.

"I'll kick you fucking ass like I did your son. You better think twice
before you open your mouth again" he screamed at the man as he tried to
break free from Aiden's iron like grip.

The father turned to the cop and told him to arrest Jules for threatening
him, that particular officer remembered Jules from the time he was in that
very hospital for being beaten and raped; he also remembered the young
boy's father and how scary he was. The cop told the man good luck and left
the waiting room with his partner. The other parents of the boys who jumped
Caden were all shocked by the scene, there clearly didn't know all of the
situation and a few of them were appalled by the comment the one parent
gave about Caden being a fag and deserving it.

Jules was still trying to break free from Aiden's hold but was growing
tired, the whole incident had completely exhausted him and combined with
him already being mentally tired because of the nightmare he had the
previous evening, Jules was totally drained.  Amy told Corrine and her
family that they were going to get Jules home before any more trouble was
caused. She gave them the house phone number to the Barrett residence and
told Corrine to call the minute heard anything about Caden or if the other
boy's father started any more trouble and they would be there in an instant
because Jules just lived down the street.

"Lets get you home Jules, you've threatened enough people for today" Dustin
said as Aiden walked Jules out to his Range Rover. He could barely walk, he
was so tired and Aiden had to hold him tight to keep him from falling.

"Who else did he threaten?" DeMarco asked.

"Mr. Leroy, the science teacher"

"What?" they all gasped.

"He watched what they did to Caden and he didn't stop them, when Jules
noticed him he asked why he didn't do anything, Mr. Leroy said the same
thing the guy in there said.  They little fag deserved it, then said Jules
deserved what happened to him too"

"Holy shit, maybe it's a good thing Stellan isn't here" Amy said.

They all agreed. They put Jules in the back seat of his SUV and Aiden got
in with him, Dustin drove them to home while the other two followed.
