Just Friends

27

Meghan's POV:
"I'm going out!" I announced to the boys.

"Oh. Where? With who? And when will you be back?" Jack asked. Part of my homework with Cindy was to get jack to enforce stricter rules on me, which ended up being giving me a curfew and a list of things I'd get grounded for if I did them.

"Mall, my brother and friends, and probably around three." I answered." I'm helping them buy utilities for the house."

"Okay. Mind bringing home dinner from that nice pizza place across the street from there?" He pleaded. I nodded and left.

Connor's POV:
"I'm on my way babe, I'm pulling into the complex now." I told Lydia over the phone. I hung up and kept driving.

I saw Luke and his friends hanging g outside of a Home Goods shopping center, one of them smoking a cigarette and the other three talking. I parked my car nearby and walked over to them.

"Did Meghan invite you?" Luke asked.

"No. I came here to tell you to stay away from my girlfriend." I said sternly, my arms folded over my chest.

"Not my fault she hangs out with me more than you. Probably because she doesn't love you." Luke smirked.

"Fuck you!" I yelled, pushing him into the wall.

"What's going on?" Meghan asked, coming up to us." What're you doing here?" She asked me.

"Seeing a movie with a friend. Why are you still hanging out with this guy? I don't care if he's your brothers friend, he's your ex!" I yelled.

"Don't yell at her." Luke warned, taking a step closer to me with his fists clenched.

"Or what? What're you going to do? Hit me?" I taunted.

He glanced at Meghan before looking back at me." No. But I swear I will make you regret coming over here if you disrespect her one more time."

"Luke it's fine-"

"No it's not." He cut her off.

"Back off dude she's not your girlfriend anymore." I snapped." Stay the hell away from her."

"Excuse me but I think I'm capable of deciding who I get to hang out with." Meghan commented.

"Stay out of this." I told her which only infuriated Luke." Meghan you and I will talk about this later now please go home."

"You're not the boss of her!" Luke called as I started walking her back to her car." You're just mad because you know that she would rather be with me instead of you because all you do is treat her like shit!"

"Luke!" Meghan yelled. I lost all control and turned on my heel, walked back over to him, and threw a punch. Luke didn't fight back but I kept hitting him until Meghan's brother pulled me off.

"Stop, Stop, calm down." Meghan said when her brother pushed me off and back to her.

"Go!" He yelled as Luke slid down the wall with blood running down his nose and face.

*luke is guy in green and Connor is the guy in red*
I got back in my car and drove off.

Meghan's POV:
I watched Connor get in his car and drive away and I didn't know whether to stick around and make sure Luke was okay but I obviously had stuff to sort out with Connor.

I looked at Ashton and he told me to go and he'll call me later.

I got back in my car and headed for his house.

When I got there he was just getting to the front door.

"What the hell Connor!" I yelled as I trailed up the driveway. I walked all the way up to him before slapping him across the face.

It took him a second to process this before raising his hand to hit me back but when he saw my face he put it down.

"Are you insane? Beating up Luke?!" I yelled." What's the matter with you?"

"I'm tired of him trying to take you away from me and I'm tired of you hanging out with him because I'm afraid you're going to cheat on me or leave me." Connor explained. Like how he's cheating on me.

"You don't need to worry about it anymore." I said as I began walking away. It felt good to finally break up with Connor. I got in my car and drove away.
