"Girl I saw what happened and you need a beer for sure." She places it in my hand and I take a hard swig of it.

"I already know I'm gonna get fucked up later." I laugh.

I see Marcus come back running, he is completely out of breath as if he just ran a mile.

"Where'd you go? You were gone for like an hour."

"I cut that assholes breaks, either way if he wins this race or not he's not gonna make it out of this place alive." He says with a straight face.

A smile immediately appears on my face and I kiss him hard, I squeal in excitement.

"I've never been more proud of you before, awww your learning from me." I pat his cheek and he gives me a quick peck.

I feel a set of eyes on me, someone is definitely death staring me and I'm certain as hell I don't like it. I usually like the attention but it's more like I stand out, I look back to see rykers eyes on me watching my every move.

Once both races are over, me and Marcus are about to get into the car as I hear someone talk to me.

"Hey! I would like that date thank you very much, I won." The guy is literally slurring over his words, he's so drunk.

"Watch it buddy." Marcus goes around the car and stands in front of me to push the guy away.

"Oh so she's your slut? You don't mind sharing do you?" He smirks.

"No marcus don't!"

Marcus punches him immediately without thinking. As I try to hold him back he accidentally hits me in the face, causing my nose to bleed. I end up on the ground with blood dripping down my hands.

"Owwww Marcus!"

He turns around quickly to realize what he's done. He places both of his hands on my cheeks and is non stop apologizing.

"I think you broke my nose!" I yell out loud.

"Oh my god, shit I'm sorry. I swear I didn't mean to." He tries to help me up and I just swat his hand away from me. I get up take off my flannel and place it on my nose to catch the blood.

Marcus only got one punch on the guy and he gets in his car immediately and as he tries to use the breaks it fails and he crashes into a light pole and An explosion breaks out.

"Marcus just drive us home for fucks sake!" I say out of anger.

"Again, I'm truly sorry. I shouldn't have punched him in the first place, forgive me? I just blacked out in that moment."

I stay silent, I know he did it by accident but at This point I'm just so dizzy from the amount of blood loss that I can't even say anything. The heat wave is making it even worse.

"Just keep driving Marcus." I say calmly as I turn the air conditioning on. I rest my head up trying not to fall asleep.

As soon as I'm home he takes me to our family doctor and she does a quick check up in my nose. I send Marcus to my room for a new pair of clothes.

"How did this happen darling?" Her sweet British accent always comforts me.

"Long story, is it broken?"

"It's a minor break, it could heal up to 3 to 4 weeks. Darling If your nose looks crooked after the swelling goes down, then you likely have a break. Tell me please, so it does mess up that adorable nose of yours that you love so much."

She teaches me how to tape up my nose and tells me to go to her office for a few days for ice packs to heal the swelling from my under eyes and the side of my nose.
