You're needed

"I interrogated Alessia. They met Ivy in the bathroom and started bullshitting you. Ivy tried to defend you, they pushed her, she hit her head against the wall and you found her."

He twirled his fork in his food as I drank.

"Did you tell Scott?"

"Of course. I wanted him to feel bad about what he said." He smiled at me.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. Someone called you from an hospital."

"Saints?"

"Yeah, they said your mother wants you."

My fork fell to my plate.

"What?"

"Does your mom work there or something? They said it was urgent but I didn't wanna wake you. You looked relaxed."

"Let's go!" I grabbed my jacket and picked my car keys.

"Right now?"

We ran across the halls of the hospital as I located her room. I made the sign of the cross before entering the room. I opened the door and cleared my throat as she looked up at me.

"Come in," she smiled at me. I entered and leaned against her her bed. "I was told that I yelled at you a few days ago. I'm sorry, I wasn't in my right senses."

"It's fine,"I waved her off.

"Hi,"Another voice greeted me. I turned slowly and met his gaze.

"Johnson?"

"Sup?"

"What are you doing here?" I whispered.

"Relax, I came to see my mom."

"Your mom?"

"Yeah, she's in the next room. I drop by here whenever I have the chance."

"So,you're the boy she's friends with?"

"Yeah."

"Oh, I almost forgot. Luke, come in."

He walked in eagerly. I couldn't blame him. He wanted to see how my mother looked like.

"What the fuck are you wearing?" Johnson frowned as he saw Luke in that apron. He forgot to take it off.

"The latest style," he twirled around like he was in a photoshoot.

"Whatever."

"So, this is your mom. She looks beautiful." Luke said as he scanned her with his eyes.

"Mom?" She repeated. "I have a child?"

"Okay. This is our cue." Johnson dragged Luke out of the room.

This is awkward.

I drew imaginary lines on the floor with my foot to avoid looking her in the eye.

"What's your name?" She asked me. Twin tears rolled down her face.

"Theresa," I managed to say even though a lump had formed in my throat.

"Come here," she held her arms open for a hug.

That's where the bonding started. My routine after that episode majorly comprised of school,therapy and visiting her.

I always Luke, Lucas or Johnson to accompany me whenever I visited her. I wanted to get better as soon as possible. Scott avoided me at school, not that I cared actually.

Ivy also got better and returned to school. Even though mom couldn't remember most of things, I brought a lot of things to trigger her memory. She had the same taste in music just like I remembered. Don't be surprised but my mom listens to Da'baby.

One day, we were going through an album I found in the house when she saw a picture we all took when I was young. I sat on a chair while she and Mr. Harvey stood beside me. Her fingers rested on his face.

"Is this your dad?"

"No."

"He's not my husband?"

"Yes."

"Then, who is he?"

"We were family before but now, he's a stranger."

"Did I get divorced?" She asked as tears threatened to stream down her face.

"No, not yet. As soon as you're out of this place, we'll do that."

"Good evening, ladies!" Luke screamed as he flung the door open.

"What do you want, crazy motherfucker?" I screamed back.

"Language," mom hit my arm.

"I'm sorry but I need Theresa for just a few minutes. I promise I'll return her soon," he pulled me out of the room.

"What is it?"

"Johnson sent me a video." He bought out his phone and started tapping.

"So?"

"See for yourself," he played the video.

"So you slept with her?" Ivy asked Scott who looked so fucking drunk.

"Yeah, when we were sixteen. That was the time my dad died. I went to her, frustrated and kinda forced myself on her. We thought we could date but it didn't work out. Now that she found a new fuck mate, she decided to dump me."

"A new fuck mate? Who's that?"

"Henderson!" He spluttered. "Luke Henderson, I'm sure they've been fucking each other and..."

"I've seen enough," I paused the video.

"I don't understand Ivy. I mean, you saved her life and this is how she thanks you?" He frowned at me.

I sent the video to Tanya and Ryder. Ryder called ASAP.

"Yo, I watched the video. That's fucked up." He growled through the phone. "If I get my hands on Scott, I'm gonna kill him."

"Not before I do." I disconnected the call.

"We've got somewhere to be," I patted Luke's shoulder. "Let me say goodbye to mum." I opened her door and she was already asleep.

"So, this is where he lives?"

We stood in front of Scott's house as Luke admired it.

"You've been here before."

"I know, I was just doing that to add dramatic effect."

"So, we just walk up to the door?" He asked.

"Nope, I have a better idea."

We went to the tree behind Scott's window and climbed up. I was about to open the window when I heard moaning sounds coming from inside the bedroom.

I brought out my phone to record what was going on. I got closer and saw a sight I may never see again in my life.

LIVE PORN!

Scott and Ivy were just performing for me. I recorded every move they did, every style they tried while Luke was actually enjoying this.

When it looked like they were done, I opened the window and let myself in.

"Holy shit! Tess, what are you doing here?" Scott covered himself up and Ivy pulled the covers over herself.

"I just saw and entertaining sight and guess what, I recorded it."

Their eyes went wide.

"You saw all that?" Ivy squealed.

"I didn't watch it alone. Come in," Luke helped himself in. Grinning from ear to ear, "That was so fun, you guys."

"Let's talk, shall we?"
