Shonn Maguire stands in the back of the bar known as “AJ’s” in Topeka, Kansas and nods his head as the band in the corner rocks an old Thin Lizzy song. Taking in the scene before he goes to meet Aerynn for dinner, Shonn spies Bethany Kenyon sitting and talking with two guys by the bar. The older one with long brown hair and matching goatee seemed to be flirting with her while the obvious tag along wingman with long blonde hair stood on the other side. As he watches the two, it becomes obvious quickly that this is a double act with the older, darker one working the mark while the boyish younger one does something else. As Shonn watches, his phone goes off. He checks it, shakes his head at the name showing and steps to the side, putting the phone on speaker.
Shonn Maguire: Da?
The older voice of his father, Shen Maguire, answers back.
Shen Maguire: Whot have ye gone an’ gotten yerself inta, Lad?
Shonn bows his head, knowing how much of a headache it was now going to be if word had gotten back to his father already.
Shonn Maguire: I’ve nay gotten meself inta ennithin, Da.
The older man sighs.
Shen Maguire: Thas nay whot I heard.
Shonn glances around to make sure no one else is close enough to hear what they’re saying. Satisfied at their level of privacy, he leans against the wall.
Shonn Maguire: Whot did ye hear, Da?
He glances back, waiting for the thunder to erupt in his ear.
Shen Maguire: Word is comin’ back tha ye might be havin’ some legal trouble... again.
Shonn shakes his head even though he knows his father can’t see him do so.
Shonn Maguire: Nay trouble… an’ if I was, I wouldna be tellin’ ye ova th’ phone!
The old man griunts in annoyance.
Shen Maguire: Be ye still wit tha Donnelly girl?
Shonn grins knowingly.
Shonn Maguire: Aye, we’re together.
His father goes deadly silent for a second and Shonn almost laughs.
Shen Maguire: Yer… whot?
Shonn nods.
Shonn Maguire: Ye heard me!
He pauses, allowing himself to look annoyed.
Shonn Maguire: An’ her name is Aerynn, nay “Tha Donnelly Girl!”
The anger in his father’s voice is unmistakable.
Shen Maguire: Have ye lost yer bloody mind, Boy?!!!?!
Shonn almost laughs again.
Shonn Maguire: Nay, jus happy s’all.
Silence meets his ears again and Shonn can’t help but smirk.
Shonn Maguire: Look, Da, ye had trouble wit Mum’s Da s’well, yeah? Aerynn and I got together an’ we’re gonna stay tha way. I love her an’ she loves me, allus have.
The old man remains silent for nearly a full minute before finally answering.
Shen Maguire: Are ye sure, Lad?
Shonn nods.
Shonn Maguire: Aye, tha I am.
When he next speaks, the old man’s voice is full of resigned recognition.
Shen Maguire: Aye, then I suppose all is well?
Shonn nods, still smiling.
Shonn Maguire: Aye, tha it is. We’re all to fight fer championships this weekend. Aerynn fer the UWA World Championship, Pauly an’ I fer the North American Championship.
Shen sighs.
Shen Maguire: An’ ye’ll nay be tellin’ th’ cops nothin’?
Shonn can’t stop himself and laughs.
Shonn Maguire: Da, there’s nay ennithin tae be tellin’ them. We’re legitimate legal fighters now with th’ UWA.
Shen pauses for a second and then comes back seemingly satisfied.
Shen Maguire: Keep it tha way, Lad.
Shonn nods slowly.
Shonn Maguire: Aye, I will.
His father goes quiet again but he comes back, for the first time, there’s genuine tenderness in the old man’s voice.
Shen Maguire: I love ye, Shonn. Stay outta trouble.
Shonn smiles, pleased.
Shonn Maguire: Aye, I will. Love ye too, Da.
Just as he hangs up, he turns around and finds himself almost face to face with the two guys who were just over with Bethany Kenyon on the other side of the bar. Shonn smiles at the two and nods to the Bethany.
Shonn Maguire: How’d it go?
The blonde one grins.
The Blonde Man: She was almost too easy. If we’d gone another few minutes…
Before he can finish the sentence, the other one cuts him off.
The Brown Haired Man: You talk too much, Johnny!
The blonde man shrugs.
Johnny: What, Man? We would have totally had her if you hadn’t seen her friend coming in!
Shonn cocks his head inquisitively.
Shonn Maguire: Whot friend?
The boyish blonde man points back to where Shonn can clearly see Jeszika Gautier having a drink next to Bethany.
Johnny: That one… um… damn, I forget what her name is…
As the blonde guy tries to remember Jeszika Gautier’s name, the other man shakes his head as he realizes what’s going on.
The Brown Haired Man: Jesus, Johnny, I told you not to get into my stash. Now what are we gonna do if we’re both fucked up?
The blonde man shrugs.
Johnny: Call Ray?
Shonn watches as the other man shakes his head in what appears to be fear.
Shonn Maguire: Calm yerself, Lad. I know a local tha willna cost ye much an’ kin give ye a ride whereva ye be needin’ tae go.
He quickly gives the information to the blonde and then nods appreciatively to both of them.
Shonn Maguire: Thanks fer yer help, Lads.
The two men nod and leave him standing there alone. Shonn glances back over and Nikki Peltier has joined the party, helping Jeszika get Bethany up from the stool.
Shonn Maguire: Bloody hell, they got her pissed an’ Jeszika went wit her…
A cruel smirk crawls across his face as his phone alerts him to a message. He looks down to see it’s a text from Aerynn.
“Ready Hatter?”
He nods, grinning stupidly as he types back his answer.
“For you, Alice? Always!”
He sends it off and then starts across the bar to follow the ladies of Arsenal out the door without them seeing him. As they go to their rental car, he makes his way around the corner to his waiting motorcycle.
Shonn Maguire: She’s gonna love this!
He revs up his bike and then races off into the night.
February 24, 2015
As a phone camera opens on him, Shonn Maguire stands next to his bike in a parking lot wearing his riding leathers and big leather jacket against the cold.
Shonn Maguire: So, how are ye ladies feelin’ today?
Aerynn snickers behind the camera and he nods knowingly.
Shonn Maguire: Ye know, when Alice told me ye were all drunks an’ drug addicts, I dinna really believe her fully…
He nods acknowledgingly to the woman holding the camera.
Shonn Maguire: Aye, an’ I know ye’ll never lemme ferget it, either.
She laughs as he shrugs like he knows he’s gonna get it later to the camera.
Shonn Maguire: But then I saw ye all wit my own eyes and ye’ were guzzlin’ all tha down like ye were sucklin’ yer dead motther’s tit again, weren’t ye, Bethany? Ye jus couldna get enough an’ then ye made sure dear Jezzy there joined in. Tha couldna have gone better if we’d planned it all tha way ourselves…
Aerynn chuckles cruelly and Shonn licks his lips at the thought of what that usually means.
Shonn Maguire: An where were ye fer all of this, Ashley? Where were ye when yer sister jus couldna stop herself from drinkin’ herself inna stupor so badly tha she got sick in the damn parking lot?
Aerynn gasps with delight.
Aerynn Donnelly: She dinna!
Shonn nods.
Shonn Maguire: Indeed she did, Alice. Tha girl couldna hold her stuff last night an’ it showed badly, I’m afraid. An’ sweet Ashley was missin’ in action, nowhere tae be found while her sister got herself inna bad way. Whot would ye have done if Johnny an’ his friend hadna stopped when they did?
He cocks his head inquisitively as if he actually expects an answer.
Shonn Maguire: Whot would ye have done if somethin’ worse than bein’ a little drunk had happened an’ yer sister had to go inna her match wit my Angel of No Mercy havin’ been beaten or worse?
Aerynn continues to laugh sadistically off camera while Shonn just stares into the camera.
Shonn Maguire: Whot would ye have done if they’d gotten her outta there before Jeszika an’ Nikki were more family than ye’ve eva been tae her an’ she was violated in ways ye kinna imagine in yer worst nightmares?
Aerynn shrugs and the camera goes with her.
Aerynn Donnelly: Poor little girl…
Shonn nods.
Shonn Maguire: Aye, poor little girl… good job yer friends did whot was needed in yer place, Champ. So if ye couldna help tha, how are ye really gonna stand against Pauly an’ me at the same time?
Shonn shrugs before snickering slightly.
Shonn Maguire: I’d say ye’d have tae be drunk, but we’ve jus seen whot happens when a Kenyon gets a little nip, haven’t we?
Aerynn laughs even more and Shonn smiles knowingly.
Shonn Maguire: Now, if ye’ll excuse us, we have some final… preparations… tae make before Sunday…
Shonn Maguire stands in the back of the bar known as “AJ’s” in Topeka, Kansas and nods his head as the band in the corner rocks an old Thin Lizzy song.
