Chapter 4
About
an hour later......
"It's looks so haggard." I remark looking at the result of our work.
"Lets just set
it on fire." Dunn jokes
"That's a good idea. We'll have a bon fire. And I'll ramp it." I start to head down to the
garage.
"Yo Jade, while your at that, call Bam. He should have been back by now!" Raab calls after me.
I sigh
and take out my cell phone.
"Yo Bam, pick up."
"Yo-yo"
"Where the hell are you?"
"On my way
home."
"Can we just burn Vito's car?"
"Why?"
"Cause it looks like a haggard piece of trash and I want
to ramp it while it's on fire."
"Cool, don't start till I get there."
"I won't ."
"Alright I got to
go."
"Later"
I hung up and got my fourwheeler. Bam pulled in as soon as I drove it over .
"What the
hell did you do today besides nothing?" Dunn asked Bam
"You'll find out," Bam told him" But first we have a little
surpise for Jade."
I looked up and gasped as Glomb poured an ice cold bucket of water over me.
"You fucking
asshole." I said turning around.
I kicked Glomb in the stomach.
"Hey kick him it was his idea!" Glomb whined.
I pulled my soaking wet hair back into a pony tail. "Dunn give me your lighter."
Dunn threw the lighter and
I caught it.
"Ape, Phil, Vito!" Bam called.
"Just go get um, and get my camo jacket while your in there, I'm
freezeing."
"Get your own shit, Jade"
I shook my head and tossed the lighter back to Dunn. "
Second
thought i'm gonna jump it as soon as you light it up. Hey Dico, Glomb go get the ramp!" I yelled to them.
"This is
going to blow the hell up, you do know that." Dico said as he and Glomb brought in the ramp.
"I know, go get the fire
extinguishers." I said
"Yeah what do you want us to do when you kill yourself? Cause that thing will leak gas and
just bang." Glomb said going back for them.
"We took out the gas tank. Look at it, it's demonlished it's not going
to blow up. Besides the gas tank was empty before we started tearing it up."
"I'm standing about 50 yard-" Bam cut
Glomb off
"Lets get this show going." Bam nodded to Dunn then to me.
"Oh my God. What the HELL are you doing
now?!" Ape yelled
"We are setting the thing on fire and I'm jumping it." I said starting up my four-wheeler
"You
heard her, Dunn light it." Bam said
Dunn lit what was left of the car on fire.
"This is just great." Phil
sighed
"This is unbeliveable. How did i get involded with this kids." Vito bitched.
"Come on Burn you mother
fucker burn." I said under my breath.
I jarred the gas and went for the ramp.
"Bam, can she really do this?"
Rake whispered to Bam
"Watch and see."
I went off the ramp and made the jump. The four wheeler flipped and
I landed on my back on the driveway.
"Jade, are you okay?" Ape yelled.
Dunn Raab Dico and Bam ran over to
me.
"That hurt so fuckin bad." I said.
Dico and Dunn helped me up.
"That was the stupidest thing I've
ever seen you do." Raab said
"Thanks." I said.
"Jade, your bleeding." Dunn said.
I looked down at
my arm. Blood run from the deep scrap near my elbow
Bam took my arm in his hands.
"It's just scraped, real
bad." he said.
"It sucks." I said
"Guys we got to clean this up." Dico said.
"Yeah." I started to
turn my four-wheeler back over.
"Damn it" I
pulled back and looked at my arm.
Bam grabbed my arm and turn
it over himself.
"You get that cleaned up, we'll do this." He said.
"ooh Bam Margera finally cleans up his
own messes." I smirked and headed back into the house.
"ow, Godamnit." I cussed putting the washcloth to the scrap.
"Jade?" I turned around. Bam came in and took my arm again.
He took the washcloth off and looked at it again.
"It's deeper then I thought."
"It just hurts." I said taking my arm back.
Bam pressed the washcloth
back on.
"Why are you doing this?" I asked when he got out the band-aids.
He shrugged.
"I always did
it when we were younger. I guess my big brother instincts kicked in."
I smiled.
"That's the first time in
what, 7 years since I've heard you say that." I said lifting myself onto the counter.
He laughed and looked up at
me.
"7 years, that was when I beat.....oh" His face fell.
"Hey, I was screwed up. You just layed on a little
tough love is all." I told him.
"A little? Jade, I beat the hell out of you."
"Thanks for reminding me."
Bam
started to bandage the scrap.
"Ow, still that hurt worst then this does."
Bam finished and touched the 'rec'
scar.
"I'm sorry this is permanent."
"Don't worry about it. It's price I payed for screwing up. It could have
been worse." I said.
"You mean you could have died, or I could have killed you?"
"I could have died. Bam wouldn't
have killed me. Though I always wondered how you knowingly beat the living hell out of me."
"Didn't I ever tell you
how much it hurt me to have to punch you?"
"You didn't have too. Your eyes tell all, Bam. That or I'm good at reading
them."
"Well, yours do too."
"Figures, Bam, you know every time I'm lying."
"Same with you when I
am."
"That's cause your a lousy lier."
"So are you."
"I know."
Bam laughed. "Still though,
It hurt."
"I can't imagine what it must have been like for you. Why did you even do it?"
Bam was quiet. Finally
he answered softly.
"Because I knew it was what you wanted."
