New Adjustments

Chapter Twenty-Six: Coming To A Truce

Wyatt's Pov

After we got Malia to the nurses office the nurse checked on her and told us that she's fine.

She told us that she fainted from feeling too overwhelmed but she should wake up soon.

She placed a hot towel on Malia's forehead and laid her to rest on one of the beds, so she could be comfortable.

When the nurse left, Zed offered to stay with Malia, to keep her company.

While that was settled, Addison dragged Elena and I outside of the room and forced us to stand next to each other, much to our displeasure.

However, we were both trembling in fear.

Why?

Because Addison is standing in front of us, her arms crossed, glaring at us.

And that glare is completely scary...it could rival the glares from Malia and Willa.

Before either of us could say anything, Addison walked towards us, the glare never leaving her face.

She raised both her hands and slapped us both upside the head.

Elena and I both winced as our hands flew up to the spots that Addison hit us.

"Ow!" Elena and I yelled.

"Addison, what the hell?" I asked.

"I'd say sorry, but you two deserved it" Addison scowled.

"Excuse me?" Elena asked, glaring at Addison.

"You heard me! You both deserved it!" Addison yelled.

Elena and I looked taken aback, especially me. 

Addison hardly yells and to see her angry is really rare.

Then again...she did see Malia, her best friend, her sister, passed out because of the argument between Elena and I.

And, knowing how protective Addison is over Malia, it's understandable for her to be this way.

"Addison-" I started, but she cut me off.

"What the hell is wrong with you two? Why were you even arguing in the first place?" Addison asked.

I scoffed and crossed my arms over my chest.

"Ask this stupid redhead over here" I managed to say.

"Hey!" Elena yelled, clearly offended.

"It's true! If you had just left me alone, let me do what I came here to do, none of this would've happened!" I yelled.

She's trying to disregard the fact that the reason we were even arguing was because she pushed my buttons.

She just gets on my damn nerves that I snapped.

"I was sending you a clear message about leaving Malia alone! I don't want you anywhere near her after what you did!" Elena yelled.

Now that, that alone made me lose it.

"Who the hell are you to tell me what to do? As far as I'm concerned, I can see her whenever I want!" I yelled.

"Why would she want you anywhere near her? Why would you want to be near her? As far as I'm concerned, you lost any right to be around her after being an asshole towards her" Elena yelled.

There she goes again, reminding me of my mistakes.

It gets on my nerves and that's what caused us to argue in the first place.
