that could save her.” I put my hand to my heart. “Oh, Josh, how heroic of you.”
My group laughed.
“No, look, I was going to end it with her tonight. I want you, babe. She's nothing anymore.”
“What?” Apparently, the girl had followed them over here as well. I could see why Donna had said what she had. The girl was painstakingly beautiful. “Josh, I moved here for you and this is the way you treat me?” she cried.
“Yeah, Josh, you should be more careful. To think, you could have played us both. If I hadn't been here tonight, I wouldn't have found out.”
Come to think of it, it did seem like this whole thing had been set up. I looked behind Josh to Jessie; she mouthed ' Sorry .'
She had known? Goddamn. She had some explaining to do.
“Joshy-boy, I think you'd better go,” Javis suggested.
“No. Sky, come on, you know we'd be good together.”
I shook my head at him and smiled. “I thought we could have, but now I know we won't. So, bye-bye, Josh,” I said, waving with my hand in his face.
His worried expression turned into a scowl. He grabbed my hand with his own, forcing it down to his side. “No, we will be together.” He started to walk off, and that was fine with me, only he hadn't let go of my hand, so I was now the one being dragged off.
“Let her go,” Javis...no wait, Kane had said.
In the next second, Josh was tackled to the ground and Kane was standing over him. “If you ever come near her or speak to her again, I will find you and make you pay. Still, I think you should pay for hurting her in the first place.”
Josh sprung up to stand in front of Kane, chest bumping him.
“Yeah, why? She isn’t worth the trouble; the only reason I wanted to get back with her was because I thought she'd be easy. I mean, look at her; the way she dresses, it has easy written all over it.”
Kane punched him in the face. Josh doubled over. Donna screamed as blood poured out of Josh's nose. Josh pretended to stand, but then tackled Kane around the waist, making them both fall to the floor. Josh sat on Kane and punched his shoulder, and Donna screamed again. I think everyone was in shock; we all just stood back as Josh and Kane wrestled and hit each other on the ground.
“Someone, stop him,” Donna yelled.
I came out of my semi-coma and strode my way over to the two hooligans. By that time, Josh was on top of Kane again. I kicked Josh in the ribs and he rolled off coughing. Must have done it pretty hard. I smiled to myself. I bent over, grabbed Kane's hand, and helped him up; his right eye would probably be bruised, and his nose would definitely swell. I reached out to wipe away some of the blood, then Donna came hurling up and wrapped her arms around his neck.
“Oh, baby, are you okay?” she asked, planting a kiss on his cheek. She turned to me. “This is all you fault.” She glared.
“You’re right.” I sighed and then turned to Kane. He didn't have to do that for me, but he did. Why? “Thanks, I guess. Sorry to ruin your pretty face.” I smirked; he smiled back and shook his head. “Thanks again, though.” He nodded.
I heard movement behind me and turned back to Josh, who was getting up from the floor holding his side. I went over to him, placed my hands on his shoulders, and kneed him in the spot I was always told never to hurt. He doubled over and then dropped to his knees.
“And that’s for playing me. Don't worry about what Kane said. You should be more scared with what I would do to you first,” I said and walked off.
Mitch, Massie, and Javis all cheered. Jessie smiled; she knew better than to talk to me right then. Kane and Donna had disappeared somewhere.
