Kim moved her way on to the last bit of people. Just a few more then she could go inside.
Kelly sighed as she was being pulled in by Sapphire
Jason said "Andy, look at yourself"
Andy barked "Oh will you stop!" clearly angry "You know if Kim was endanger for almost a month and you couldn't do a thing about it, you'd be just like me!"
"And you'd be in my spot!" Jason barked back. "I'm just doing what you would do, and what you would say is that "Skyla wouldn't want you to kill yourself for her sake" "
Andy wiped his eyes revealing he was crying. "I miss her..." His stomach turned a bit "I miss her so much, Jason. I can barely eat, sleep..." Jason recoiled, shower was one of those things. "I should have went with Skyla. I should have demanded I went with."
"She would have said no and you know it" Jason commented.
"That doesn't mean I shouldn't have tried!" Andy shouted, the noise of the nightclub banishishing their arguments to the void. "I was so...insistent on her staying. I didn't want her to go for my sake." He sighed "I felt that I was right...maybe I should have listened to her"
"This is no time for should haves" a tender voice came from Jason's voice as he placed his hand on his brother's shoulder. "Believe me, I have plenty myself. I should have taken Aska's gun, I should have interrupted her shot, I should have kept my temper in check with Carpinello" He sighed and said "But if you let yourself be controlled by what you should have done, you won't acomplish making yourself better. A lesson I had to learn the hard way."
"Pampers is saying, by now she's dead" Andy stated as the brothers now started to sit next to him, Jason waving off the bartender. "I don't believe it...not Skyla. That girl can not be dead. I refuse to believe she's dead. She's to talented for that"
Jason asked "Do you really beleive she's alive? Even after all of this time?"
Andy nodded "Absolutely, and I will find her."
There was a slight chuckle from the younger brother "Never heard you talk about a girl like this before"
"There's no girl like Skyla. She's amazing. Beautiful, kind-hearted, good with Elizabeth, and willing to give up so much for the people she cares about" Andy said blissfully.
"How'd you meet?" Jason asked as Andy looked at you confused.
Andy said "When Aska plotted to kidnap your girlfriend's sister. You were there, Aska shot you"
"I'm sorry" which caused Jason to chuckle a bit "I mean, how did you know you were in love with her?"
Andy smiled "Easy, when Aska decided to get on Carpinello's side. Skyla was supposed to kill me..." He sighed "She didn't though. She gave up everything for me. I already felt something, but...someone that selfless? To give up everything for me..." He was quiet. "I guess from there, it just grew." He chuckled "You're going to laugh your ass off, but I honestly thought about leaving the life with her and Elizabeth and live happily ever after" that got Jason to laugh which finalyl got a different reaction "I'm serious, you jackass" said a chuckling Andy.
"I know, I know." Jason stated "You know, you always still could. Pampers could easily run things the way you go on and on about him."
Andy laughed a little "I'll have to think about it." He paused and looked at himself in the mirror. Confused at first, Jason went to say something then paused, as if Andy was staring through space and time, thinking about how he got started in the life in the first place.
Flashback:
Looking around a younger Andy kneeled down next to a large limo with a pipe wrench as Andy smirked. "Gold plated rims? Someone needs to get out more. Whatever though, this shit will keep Mom and Dad from frying me for being out so late."
As he slowly started to steal the car he paused as he heard twenty gun clicks. Terrified Andy turned around quickly...then paused as there was a hand motion and out came a younger David Falconettie. He looked at Andy and said "Do you know who I am?"
Andy slowly nodded "You're that guy on TV. You own Wild Devils...and umm...other businesses"
"So I do" was David's response. "Pretty ballsy...trying to take from me. Whats' your name kid?"
"Andrew" was Andy's response at the time.
David stated "i'm going to call you Andy. Tell you what, I need a DJ at the club. Long as you don't act like total twit, I'll hire you, as long as you put my rims back"
END FLASHBACK
And that was that, after that Andy started to hang out with David more and more, learning from him, training from him, basically becoming a second son to him. Andy paused as he looked at himself now. Bold enough to steal from a guy who was clearly a Crime Boss, and Bold Enough to work for said Crime Boss. Bold Enough to betray his family, his morals, his everything, for what was best for him.
Yet now a Pathetic drunk with barely an empire. Skyla would hate to see who he's become. Andy faux straightened up his hair "Nah, I can't give up the life, I'm to deep into it." He sighed "However, you're right Jason. This is not me, I wasn't raised to be this. Grandpa would have spat on me, Dad would have just looked away, and I'm terrified about what Mom would have done" Jason chuckled a little at that. Andy said "This city's vulnerable right now, and I'm the boss...a boss who is a king without a throne...and a missing Queen"
Jason paused seeing the tone in Andy's voice, it was...bolder...as if a switch went off. Andy looked at Jason and said "Thank you, i mean it. Our folks would be so proud of the man you have become" Jason smiled "Don't worry I'm done drinking for the night. I'll start cutting back." Jason went to say something and said "By not having anymore tonight, you go and help your girl welcome in your customers. For fuck sakes it's opening night Jason"
Jason chuckled and said "Fine, don't lose hope"
"Oh I have regained a lot more than just my hope, little brother" was Andy's odd response as Andy looked ahead "Have fun all right? Oh...and if...no..when I get my empire back, you and Kim have nothing to fear"
"Geez with you and Sapphire, I feel like I have more mob ties then friends" Jason muttered as he went back to work.
Andy looked at the Bartender and said "Can I have a water please?"
