I stood up after eating pizza and watched Nick and Percy skate away. I skated in little circles while April told me about some story involving Angelina.
"-her flirting with Nick was pointless. I mean she was the first moaning myrtle so she shouldn't think its just a good thing that people continue to call her it."
I snickered, "Like she thinks what people think about her."
"Well, in my opinion, I don't think Percy and her should be together. I mean, Percy is so..." she sighed and daydreamed a little, "and Angelina is so..." We both scowled.
Angelina went skating by with some boy and I shook my head, "Percy doesn't really have a choice in the relationship. His dad wants him to marry her so thats what hes going to do."
"I wish Percy and I could be together." She looked at me with sad eyes.
I felt sad for her, "I know. You and him had a thing at one point..."
"Until his dad made up the stupid marriage thing."
"I still believe he did that to seperate you two."
"Only because he doesn't trust my family."
"Isn't it because of some stupid fight between your families?"
She nodded, "Oh yeah. Dates back to some ridiculous early time period."
"Explains a lot. Your mom hates his mom and both of your dad hates his dad. Its sad."
Percy came skating up and winked at April, gesturing for her to join him. We both looked at him in surprise.
"Maybe he knows we were talking about him." April blushed and skated off with him.
My phone started to ring and I looked down at the name that was glowing on my phone. Finnick. Why was my brother calling me again? It isn't like he necessarily had time for me any other time so... I may as well answer it. I skated my way to a doorway and slipped out carefully, making sure Nick saw me and I motioned to him I needed a minute.
I answered, "Hello?"
Finnick was out of breath, "Hey, where are you?"
"At the roller rink, why? Why are you panting?"
"Just got done raiding April's house, with her mom's permission of course."
"Your in town? What?" I felt myself fall back against the brick wall of the roller rink.
I could tell he was smiling, "What? I can't come to see my little sister?"
"You never do... Whats the occasion."
"I need to talk to you. Its important."
"Everything is apparently impo-"
"This isn't time for your rude commentary." He snapped at me and I froze.
He was being serious, "I can't meet until I'm done with here. So maybe tomorrow."
I hung up and went back inside, knocking into Nick and falling to my butt. I looked at him in surprise and laughed at the look on his face. It was full of shock and surprise. The look on his face made me remember the time he tried out for wrestling and failed. He got pinned in two seconds and looked so surprised I had busted out laughing and had to be taken from the wrestling room because everyone trying out or practicing had stopped to look at what happened.
"Was Nicholas James Davidson just easedropping?" I smirked and winked.
He laughed and helped me up, "What? Of course not."
I slid my hand into his and smiled as I blushed, "Mhm."
"I wasn't." He leaned his face down to mine and I felt my back hit the wall gently.
My cheeks turned a brighter shade of red, "W-"
His lips brushed across my cheek and I sucked in a breath of air. The tickle of warmth across my cheek and across my jawline was soothing and I closed my eyes, parting my lips. I wanted him to kiss me and I wanted him to kiss me now. Right now in this moment. I felt my hands tighten on his arms and I pulled him into me and pressed my lips against his gently. The air around us exploded with euphoria and I nearly had to gasp for air as we pressed ourselves against each other. I felt the world slip away and felt completely alone with him. I felt his heart beating hard against my chest.
"Ew." I heard a snobby voice comment.
I pulled away in shock and gasped, looking at Angelina. She had her hip cocked and seemed very angry.
"First your whore friend April steals my date and now your hooking up with some man right here in front of the world." She turned her nose up like I was some piece of dirt on her shoes.
Before I could speak, Nick spoke for me, "We weren't hooking up, Ang. Just because you hook up with every guy you see doesn't mean so does every other girl."
"Oh, yeah, cause shes not a whore."
"Shes not, unlike you."
Angelina's face twisted into rage, "Outside now."
I untied my skates but before I could move them out of my way Angelina grabbed me by my hair and drug me outside.
"What is your problem!" I screamed as she released me and Nick raced inside yelling Percy's name.
Angelina kicked my stomach, "You are! You think your so perfect? Ha! Your pathetic! You think he loves you huh? He would rather have me than anyone!"
"What did I ever do to you!" I stood and held my stomach.
She stood over me and grabbed me by my hair, lifting me up. I felt pain run along my scalp and I felt my eyes tear up. I had never done anything to her. Nothing to make her this mad.
"You stole Nick from me. Thats what you did. When I was in school you told me that you were going to date Nick but I had already told you I liked him. You told me to fuck off and that no one would ever want me ever, but look at me now. I attract more guys than you ever will. I have Percy. I have other boyfriends. I have everything you never will and soon, with my luck, I will have Nicholas too because thats what I want. I always get what I want." She sneered down at me.
My eyes widened, "You mental bitch."
She screamed and jumped down on top of me, arms flinging down, fists pounding into my sides and face. I screamed as I felt bruises form and blood spew down from my nose. Everytime she hit me I wanted to hide away. She stood and grabbed a handful of my hair, yanking me with force I didn't know she possessed and slammed me into the side of the building. Before she could kick me in the face she was pulled back by Percy and Nick crouched down beside me and helped me sit up. I didn't want to sit up. I wanted to pound her face in.
I stood up and Percy saw the look in my eyes and tried to back up, but I was already there. I pulled my arm back as far as it would go and it was almost slow motion. My fist connected with her nose and it snapped sideways, blood spurting everywhere. Splatters hit my shirt and I watched as she screamed out and her knees buckled. Nick grabbed me this time, but I was ready for that. I snapped my leg up and it connected with her jaw, her head snapping back. She screamed out again and anger filled her eyes.
I felt my voice raise with fury, "If you think for one moment he will stay with you, your dead wrong you mental bitch! Your a slut! A dirty, nasty slut and no one will ever love you the way you want to be loved! Also, if you think your going to take the guy I love away from me you have another thing coming! I will end you and your pathetic ass! Go fuck some dirty guy in a gas station!"
"Fuck you! FUCK YOU, HAZEL! I hate you!" She scream cried and I smirked but staggered in pain. She beat my ass good.
Nick looked down at me in confusion and I shook my head quickly. He rushed me to Aprils car and ran inside to get her and my shoes. When he came back they rushed me to the hospital in case something was broken or bruised too severly. Tonight was a reck.
