Song for this chapter: when the party's over - billie eilish

"Wha- What are you doing here?" I stuttered. Next to me I heard Jadon's breathing getting faster and noticeably louder. "Who is that?" I heard Lucia whisper to Marcus. He shrugged, looking at least as confused as she did. "Who is that?" asked Marcus. "Oh, how rude of me," Dave burst in. Then he held out his hand to both of them and continued: "I'm Dave, nice to meet you. I'm a big fan."

Marcus was about to raise his hand and Lucia scanned him skeptically. But before the two could shake hands, Jadon intervened. He couldn't seem to control himself anymore. He slapped Dave on the arm and held him tight. "What is wrong?!" Dave yelled, drawing a few looks at us. I just wanted to sink into the ground. The evening went so well until now.

"WHAT'S WRONG?!" Jadon shouted back and got up. He pushed the chair back so far that it was loud. More and more staff came running and I noticed that I was getting sick. Lucia and Marcus both still looked confused to be, but now understood which side they were on. I've never seen Jadon like this, let alone experienced it. And it looks like the two of them don't either.

"You sick asshole! You follow my girlfriend's every step. That's called stalking. You must be completely out of sorts! You were everywhere in London. Stunned her in the club with KO drops and then you think you can pick her up. Then you send her flowers, letters and other shit to her house! You didn't even have her address, number or anything. And now you are here? In the Caribbean?! As a waiter, right where she is? You're completely deranged and if you don't want me to smack your face right away then I would advise you to piss off and never, really NEVER EVER show your face again. The police will be called anyway!"

A tear flowed down my cheek. I was scared of Jadon but so grateful at the same time. I just never saw him so angry, abusive, loud and aggressive. Lucia and Marcus now both looked shocked, they realized more and more how insane and psycho this situation was. Meanwhile about 4 other people from the staff came to our table and tried to separate the two. I took Jadon's hand and squeezed it tightly. He returned the grip and I felt inner calm return. "What's going on here? We informed the police!" said one waitress to calm things down. But she didn't last long.

Dave took the floor: "By the way, your sex side is cute", and not only winked at me but also at Jadon. Jadon was completely hung up and when I noticed that he loosened our grip, I couldn't do anything anymore. "Baby, n-" I yelled, but it was too late. He clenched a fist and hit Dave's face directly. Dave couldn't react either and received the punch directly on his nose. Jadon shook his hand and took a step back. "Fucking psycho", he whispered.

I heard sirens heading our way as I spoke. "What... what sex site? I don't have any," but Dave couldn't answer me. He was sitting on the floor in a daze and haze, holding his whole face. Every now and then there was a whimper. "Britt..." Lucia began lightly. "What?" I asked, slightly irritated from being overwhelmed. "I googled your name and...here is a sex site for real. It shows nude pics, says 'free sex', and texting. Really everything".

I now felt a tingling in my face and I could literally feel myself turning pale. "What do you mean?" I asked completely hypnotized. It felt like I was, see and feel everything in tunnel vision. I stared somewhere but I couldn't say what or who. Lucia looked at me pityingly and stretched just her phone in front of my face. "What the fuck?? That's not me!" I cried out in shock. "It's my face but not my body!"

"I would never do that. Y'all know that!" I defended myself. "I know baby," Jadon whispered. Lucia and Marcus looked at me affirmatively. "I think it's awesome," Dave said again, who is reasonably conscious again but still holding his nose.
