Chapter 52 - A Strange Friendship.

"Jimmithey. The hell was that for?" Milly asked slowly and sternly, looking down at him like he was a little kid.

"That guy's an asshole, Miss Milly! This guy can't do shit, yet acts like he deserves respect! Fuck no!" Jimmithey responded.

"Jimmithey, he's still our ally. Chad may be new to this stuff, but the fact that he's trying to help is respectable. Remember, he only came because I called Myusel. He had nothing to do with this, yet he still wants to fight to save the world. I think he deserves respect for that." Milly stated, looking straight at Jimmithey.

Jimmithey knew that was true.

Chad was doing something incredibly brave, something that Jimmithey totally respected.

But he still felt anger towards Chad whenever he saw him.

He didn't fully know why, but he had a guess that it was because he was with Myusel and defended her.

It was like he was making fun of him by being with Myusel.

He was looking down at Jimmithey's own shitty experiences with the bitch, viewing it as if they weren't her responsibility.

Either that or he didn't give a shit, which made Jimmithey even more furious.

"You can say that, but what the fuck is he gonna do? He had no powers and shit. He's just gonna get killed! Besides, he's with that stupid bitch Myusel. He's sucking up to her while not listening to the facts!" Jimmithey yelled, crossing his own arms.

"Oh, so that's the real issue. I get that's weird to you, but he's only defending the woman he knows. He never saw the Myusel you knew, so you can't blame him for loving her." Milly shrugged.

"But he refuses to acknowledge what the hell she's done! He's even more delusional than me! He's stupid as shit!" Jimmithey roared back, slamming his hand onto the ground again.

"True… I get why you don't like him. But, you gotta put that aside and focus on the job. Besides, him dating her is keeping her away from you. She doesn't give a shit about you now, right? You gotta thank him for that, right?" Milly asked.

"I dunno… She's still bothering me and shit. Earlier, after she saved me, she asked me to forgive her! I know she's gonna keep trying to make me feel bad for her forever cuz she's crazy. And he's gonna get jealous that I'm still the center of that bitch's world. This is just gonna lead to trouble, Miss." Jimmithey muttered while he dusted the dirt off his hand.

"She really said that…? Damnit, you guys just need to leave all of this drama for after the War is over… Jackie and I are the only ones focused and not in this stupid ass love triangle…"

"Love triangle?!? Miss, are you trying to imply I like that b-bitch!? If so, then fuck you!" Jimmithey's jaw dropped.

"T-that's not what I mean! I worded that poorly… Sorry. " She frowned while sitting upright.

"Um, it's fine, Miss… I need to relax… Everything's just been so crazy." Jimmithey admitted while rubbing his forehead.

"I understand… Just know we can talk and all. I know I'm the one who brought Myusel here and all, but… Honesty, you remind me a bit of my little brother… He kinda acted like a little version of you… Especially with all of the cursing, hehe… So seeing you like this doesn't bring me joy…" Milly sighed while the afternoon winds brushed against her flowing hair.

"You have a brother…?" Jimmithey asked.

"Yeah. Dunno where he is but, I hope he's out of all of this trouble. Can you see why I'm so bossy now, hehe?" She asked

"K-kinda… Well, thanks, Miss… For everything." Jimmithey became silent after saying this.

He was an only child, so he didn't really understand her feelings completely.

But he did feel a lot calmer near her. She brought him a hint of stability, even amidst this hectic war.

"Can't believe she's the same lady I stuck a dildo into…" Jimmithey thought as his eyes narrowed at her.

"Yeah, yeah. Save that sappy stuff for later. Let's get back to meditating. We don't have much time until tomorrow… That's when shit is gonna get real!" Milly sighed before closing her eyes, sitting with her legs crossed.

"Understood, Miss." Jimmithey closed his eyes and crossed his legs, letting his mind settle.

He did this for a minute, silently letting his mind settle in the moment.

But he stopped when he heard Milly's sniffing, a soft noise that caused his eyes to open.

"Miss Milly?" He questioned.

"Fuck is that smell? It's horrible…" Milly said as she began standing up.

After a few seconds, Jimmithey smelt the same awful scent, covering his nose reflexively.

"Oh shit. Yeah, I smell that shit too." He stood up, turning aside as he felt the awful smell get stronger when he faced the school.

"I think it's coming from over there. Behind the school." Jimmithey pointed at the abandoned building, causing Milly to turn alongside him.

"Alright. Let me check. Jimmithey, go back and get the others. Something's up..." Milly said as she raised her hand, slowly walking towards the back of the abandoned school.

Jimmithey did as he was told and went off in the opposite direction.

He decided he'd alert Jackie and let her tell the other two.
