“Hey!” I heard a shout from the doorway, but I couldn’t see who it was.
Drew was still kissing me; I was still shoving against him, tears formed in my eyes, from my mother dying and now this.
“Get the fuck away from iz!” I finally recognised the voice; it was a heavily drunk jumpnow.
I’d never really liked jumpnow, but now I loved him.
The next thing I knew drew’s mouth was gone from mine, and there was blood on the wall.
Drew stumbled backwards, clutching his nose, jumpnow was shaking his fist.
Apparently he had hit drew to get his attention so he could get him away from me.
My tears became silent but continued to flow.
Jumpnow was now pulling him away by the collar of his shirt.
“Shaun!” he yelled, throwing drew against the doorframe. “Get the fuck in here before this guy tries anything more with your freaking girlfriend!”
I could hear his approaching footsteps, then Shaun appeared in the door way. “What’s this about someone and izzy?” he glared around the room.
His eyes finally fell on drew with blood all over his white shirt, still pinned against the wall by jumpnow, who still shaking his fist, the hit must have hurt more then I thought it would.
Mimi wandered into view, following after Shaun. “What’s all this shit?” she said, wow she sobered up fast, she looked at drew, and then looked at me, wiping my eyes.
Anger flashed in her eyes. She stalked towards drew. “What the fuck did you do to her?!” she threw her arms everywhere.
Drew stood his ground, trying to stand up taller, but was limited because jumpnow still held his collar. “I did nothing!” he yelled back.
“Well it didn’t look like nothing!” jumpnow replied. “It looked like you kissed izzy without her permission.” He looked at me, “and she looks like she don’t like that, in fact she looks a little rattled, don’t you agree Shaun?” Shaun nodded, crossing his arms.
Mimi had been standing there glaring at drew, id only known her for about a week, but I already knew that she wasn’t one to be messed with.
We all saw it coming, except drew, Shaun leapt at Mimi to try and keep her under control, he was to slow and fell onto the floor.
Jumpnow let go of drew and moved away from him.
Mimi launched herself at drew, she got in a few punches, she was doing pretty well.
Between jumpnow and Shaun they got a hold of her so she couldn’t hurt anyone, anymore.
“Get her out of here.” Shaun said angrily to jumpnow, he nodded and threw Mimi over his shoulder.
“C’mon little one, there’s more drinks to be had.” he sauntered outside; Mimi was kicking and screaming, trying to get at drew again.
Shaun turned to drew. “You’re fucking lucky she’s half pissed. I know for a fact that she can hit harder then that, and with better aim then she had just then.” Shaun pinned him against the wall, like jumpnow had before him. “If I see you any fucking where near izzy again I won’t let you survive.”
Drew looked arrogant, “you’re a fag anyway, what could you do to me?”
This time it was me who Shaun under estimated, I propelled myself from the wall aiming all my fury at drew. I hit him for all the things that made me angry.
Shaun stood by for a few seconds dumbfounded, but then came to his senses and pulled me off of him. “Calm down izzy.”
I breathed deeply, doing as he asked, calming myself.
Shaun looked at drew, if looks could kill. I thought to myself.
“Get out of my house!” I screamed at drew, I didn’t want him anywhere near the happy memories that I had shared in that house..
“Go on, you heard her, get out.” Shaun nodded towards the door, and let go of my shoulders, so drew would see I was ready for anything.
“And, if you’re smart,” I added “you wouldn’t tell anyone, and you wouldn’t show up at my house again. I can put you up for abuse drew.”
With that drew walked out of my house.
I hoped I never had to see him again.
“Izzy are you alright?” Shaun came up behind me, wrapping his arms around my shoulders.
“I will be soon.” I looked at him as I turned around, placing my arms around his neck, he moved his to my waist
Shaun smiled, “the simple things in life.” He laughed, and then kissed me.
My worries faded, he’d never kissed me like this before, it was passionate, filled with a longing I knew only too well, but it was also sweet.
It was everything I needed.
“I love you Shaun.” I said as we stopped to catch our breath.
He grinned, and touched his forehead to mine, “you’d better, or this would have been worth nothing.” Then he kissed me again, picking me up and standing me on the stairs so we were the same height, it was easier this way.
