'Why So Tense?' Harringrove

Ridiculous

⚠️! TW: Cursing, Violence !⚠️
( Steve POV )

i was babysitting the kids, when i found out max forgot to tell billy she was sleeping over. i knew i was going to be in trouble, so i kept my eyes open for billy at all times. luckily it was Saturday, i was out at the store keeping my eye out just incase billy popped out of nowhere, i was "small" compared to the new king of the school 'Billy Hargrove' i mean to be fair he did work out a lot, he was a athlete, he was handsome, and kinda hot.

i finally got out the store, walking over to my car and putting my groceries in my trunk, after i close my trunk i hear a whisper in my ear. followed along with hands on my hips "Hey pretty boy" he whispered in my ear, i turn around quickly and push him away, he was still on his feet. "fuck off Hargrove!" i say to him, knowing i was gonna be hurt in the end either way. "why so tense? i just wanna ask a simple question" he walks over and grabs me again and pulls me over by my collar "wheres max, Harrington?" he says in a low tone, scaring me a little "she slept over with her friends at my place, she forgot to tell you" i say, trying to get him off me "get your filthy hands off me!" i push him hard, he doesn't budge "oh shit..-" i manage to get out before he punches me in the face, i fall to the ground in pain. he hits me again harder this time, on my eye "don't. push. it" he says still in a low tone as before "you're going to drive over to your place, and tell max she needs to get home. got it?!" he says, slamming the back of my head into my car. almost leaving a dent "okay! okay.." i say, he lets go, i hold the back of my head and get in my car "fucking .. hell" i say driving off with a massive headache.

"Max! you need to get home, did you pack your stuff yet?" i yell walking in the door, she peaks her head out from the kitchen "yea i packed my stuff, why is your face bruised?!" she says running over, and so does mike, dustin, el, and Lucas, including will. "i'm fine max, i just ran into somebody on the way here" i say smiling "but you're hurt!" dustin cry's out "i'm aware of that Henderson" i chuckle and look at everyone "did you go through my shit?" i say "no why?" they say "because i can't trust like half of you, come on max lets go" i say laughing, and walking out the door.

i get into my car, and max looks at me as i pull out of the drive way. "steve?" she says "yea, whatcha need?" i say smiling "who really did that to you?" she says, now were on the road to her house "nobody, don't worry about it max" i keep my eyes on the road, worrying about what she'll say next. "steve just tell me the truth!" she snaps "you can trust me steve!" she says slightly yelling "max, please, don't worry about it" i say still looking at the road, i pull up to her house "i'm going to keep pushing you for an answer you know" she says getting out the car "i know" i laugh as she walks around and waves to me goodbye, i see billy walk up to my car window and max goes inside the house, i roll down my window as he leans a little on it "hey pretty boy, wanna give me that number?" (JUST PRETEND THEY HAVE CELL PHONES & SHIT😭🤞)
he says smirking "i'm good Hargrove, especially after you just beat me up, its a no" i said looking at him dead in the eyes "wasn't asking." he hands me a paper, and walks into his house leaving me speechless. who does this asshole think he is?! first he beats me up, and now he gave me his number! this is so .. ridiculous, i drive off and read the paper 'meet me at ___ around __' and his number was on the back, he was so peachy, ugh i hate him.

Sorry for this short little chapter!
