Chapter 31
Piper's Pov
I take Mot's hand and drag him into the club. Of course Mot sticks out like a sore thumb with his small fragile self.
"Piper!" Josh shouts before hugging me. "You brought Mot?" He asks as he pulls away.
"Yeah. Where's Tony?"
"The Modesteps! Tom told me about you...." Mot says loud enough to be herd over the music.
"Tony is bartending." Josh says harshly and jerks my hand from Mot's.
Mot's Pov
I deffinately don't belong with these people. "I'm gonna go get a drink." I mumble to Piper before making my way over to the bar.
"Well look who it is!" A fairly cute boy in a penguin hoddie says. I just smile slightly even though it's concealed by my bandana. (Or scarf didn't know what it was called)
"What can I get ya Mr. Mot? Oh I'm Tony by the way." Before I can answer a mob of girls run over.
"We want a round!" One yells over the music. Tony looks at me, "Me too!" He smiles before disappearing to get everyone's shots.
I have no clue where Piper went, but I guess I shouldn't worry. I don't think anyone would....'mess'......with her.
Time Skip
Tony's Pov
I'm beginning to feel hesitant about giving Mot all this alcohol. I'm not sure how much more I'm going to allow him.
Mot's Pov
"Give me another." I order Tony and he sighs before going and getting me yet another shot. I've lost count on how many I've had.
If I had to guess it'd be around 9 or 10. Just after a down my shot a song starts to play.
Blood still stains when the sheets are washed.
Sex don't sleep when the lights are off.
Kids are still depressed when you dress them up.
Syrup is still syrup in a sippy cup.
I glance at Tony who sets a beer in front of me. "You ok?" He asks but doesn't get an answer.
I drink as much as my body will allow me to at once.
He's still dead when you're done with the bottle.
Am I drinking my feelings? I can't be! No way! But I am....
Tony's Pov
I place my hand on Mot's snapping him from his trance. "You need a break?" I ask after Mot finishes his drink.
He says nothing just nods a responce. I lead him into the small break room back behind the main area.
"Do you want me to get Pip-"
"Please no." Mot looks sad. "Well umm I'll be right back." I exit the break room and manage to close the door before bumping into Josh.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" He half yells at me. "What?! He needed a moment so I brought him here." I admit and Josh sighs.
"I'm sorry I shouldn't have shouted at you." My eyes go to Josh's lips but I quickly look away.
"Not in public" his words echo in my mind. "I'm sorry Tony....I just am not ready y-"
"I'm not mad." I go back into the break room to avoid seeing the mob of girls run over....
Mot's crying? He was fine when I left him. Or I thought he was. "You ok?" I ask but Mot ignores me.
"You can trust me." Mot's eyes go from the floor to me. "You're not much like Josh. He seems more hostile.....I guess most don't like me anyways." I smile slightly at the mention of Josh.
"I'm more of a softy I suppose. Not everyone dislikes you. But Josh really isn't a bad guy once you get to know him."
Things go quiet again and I don't attempt to spark a conversation. "I killed my friend." Mot blurts.
"What?"
"I k-killed my friend." Tears start falling from Mot's eyes again. "Mot.....who was it?" I ask gently.
Mot just sobs. This poor guy really can't get a break. It's one thing after another for him.
"Jerriah. Your Dianite had tasked him to killing us I think." Mot wipes his tears. He was drinking his feelings.
"It wouldn't-"
"Mot we gotta go." Piper says suddenly. "What?! Why?" Mot blurts.
"Please!" I get a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach. What's going on that's making Piper this way.
"What's going on?" I ask in a sort of panicked manner. Piper doesn't answer me!!! What is it with people and ignoring me?!?!
"Well umm.....Tony I'll talk to you later I guess." Mot mumbles with a sad smile.
Mot's Pov
"Keep your eyes on the floor. Got it?" Piper says harshly enough to get me to listen.
"What's going on?" I whisper to her as she looks around us. She doesn't answer.
Dianite's Pov
I get home to find it, empty. I push all my horrible feelings away. Mot has his freedom. That's the one thing I won't take.
It worries me more that he's with Piper. Who knows what she talked him into doing!
I'm sure they just went to see Tom and Alyssa, if not them Jordan and Capsize.
Knock......knock knock knock
I jump from the couch and run to the door. Martha and Wag are stood behind it.
"Hi! Umm we need to talk." Wag says nervously. "Yeah sure....come on in." I say and try to hide my disappointment.
"You ok Uncle? You seem a little off." Martha says as Wag helps her sit. "Yeah I'm fine." I answer and sit in the chair beside the couch.
Mot's Pov
Piper stops suddenly. "You ok?" I ask as her eyes widen in what must he shock, or fear.
She just points behind me and let's tears fall from her eyes. I whip out my sword before turning to face whatever behind me.
I was not prepared for what I saw......
