Greed Fischer (BXB)

Chapter 10

TW: EXTREME REFERENCES TO SEXUAL ABUSE 

__________________________________

I rested my head on my arm as The Neighbourhood played, softly so that I could hear Amari and Jaz's conversation. They were talking about the holidays and how we were planning to meet up and take a trip to Fallen Valley, which was only two hours away from here. I didn't know if my father would be happy with me if we did end up going.

Speaking of my father, I hadn't seen him since Saturday, which was four days ago. I sighed inwardly. I loved my father, I really did, but he never had time for me and that was becoming a sad reality that I couldn't escape, my father's work meant more to him than I did. I wasn't bitter about it. There are some things I had come to accept as a kid, and in the end, resentment changes nothing.

Amari was talking about his car when the cafeteria burst in an uproar. Our heads snapped up and a loud crash echoed down the halls as Finlay Jeffards flew into a set of tables. The people at the tables grabbed their things and scattered like flies whilst Finlay crumpled to the floor and groaned in pain.

Everyone created a circle around the fight, which meant that people were crowding behind us and peering over each other's shoulders. I turned my head to the assailant and paled when I saw Greed.

"Fuck," Amari snapped his head to me, "do you know what he's doing?"

"No, bitch!" I rolled my eyes, "I'm not a fucking mind reader."

Amari rolled his eyes in reply.

Greed's fists were clenched and he looked terrifying as he stalked towards Finlay. His violet eyes burned with anger and prominent veins ran alongside his forearms. The flannelette I had given him this morning looked like it was ready to burst as his muscular body oozed tension. I really should not have been turned on.

I wanted to know what Finlay had done to make Greed so angry. Greed wasn't stupid and although his only personality trait seemed to be anger when he was with me, he knew how to hold back. This was not the case right now.

"Fuck you, Greed!" Finlay growled as he staggered to the ground, "I hope your daddy fucking beats you to sh –

Greed moved swiftly like a tiger, he didn't look human, his eyes were burning with something hauntingly unnatural – the gaze of a prey that was forced to become a predator. I winced as he tackled Finlay to the floor and punched him hard. I thought he would pull back, but he didn't, he lifted his arm back up and each punch left a sickening smack in the air. Greed looked fucking wild and scary as shit as Finlay's blood dripped from his knuckles.

I had to do something.

I stood up and Amari tried to pull me back, but I dodged his long arms and ran out to them, "Greed!"

"Fuck! Greed, you're going to kill him!" I snapped as I latched onto Greed's waist and attempted to pull him off of Finlay – we all knew that I was incapable of doing so.

"Iniko..." His voice was so dark, "get the fuck away before you get fucking hurt."

Fear slithered down my spine and into my stomach where it made its home. I shook my head and latched on tighter, "no, dumb bitch! Get the fuck off of him!"

"Iniko." Greed spun around and I took multiple steps back as he loomed over me. His eyes fumed down at me and flecks of blood smeared on his pale skin. He looked fucking terrifying, like he was about to beat the shit out of me next, "I mean it, Puppy. Get out of here."

Greed scared me. The fear I felt in this moment was nothing like the fear I felt with him usually. He looked wild and I didn't feel safe, but I pushed past that and glared up at him.
"No, Greed."
