Mount Olympus [8]

Juliet

I frown and study him before glancing around, chuckling weakly again.

Nic

I take a deep breath and focus on the music instead of the people, kind of wishing four drinks could still give me the same outcome as Juliet.

Juliet

A guy pulls me away from him and I laugh louder, "B-But he's my date," I glance back.

"Not anymore," He smiles, spinning me.

Nic

I snap out of everything and yank Juliet back to my side, standing up to the guy who took her, "Keep your hands on your own a*s. This one's mine."

Juliet

He smirks, arms crossed, "Whucha gonna do about it?"

Nic

"This," I throw my fist and make contact with his jaw with a pop. I continue throwing punches, ignoring his retaliation.

Juliet

I gasp and try to stop them but can't, backing up as people start to stare.

Nic

I punch him until my own body's sore, my lip bloody and my torso burning. Taking a deep breath, I kick him one last time and just decide to leave.

Juliet

Traumatized and backed up against the wall, I slide down it and bury my face in my knees.

Nic

I hear sirens and walk out of the house, shoving my blistered hands in my pocket and walking home.

Juliet

I hear sirens as well and run out after him, "Nic!"

Nic

I stop and turn around to find her chasing after me. Sighing, I wait for her to catch up.

Juliet

I kep to him and study him, "You okay? Come back to my house and I can clean you up," I take his hands out of his pockets and swallow, "Atleast let me do that."

Nic

I hesitate before nodding, following her there.

Juliet

I get there and unlock the door, finding Jackie making out with my brother on the couch. I block my eyes,"What the hell!"

She pulls back quickly, studying us, "I couldn't find you at the party so I came here to see if you left early..."

My brother smirks, playing with the rim of her shirt.
