"...with your friends from the school, I-I got jealous. I'll admit it. I got envious and I just want you to spend all your time with me. But I know that isn't healthy. As long as you're still my girl. I'll...I'll..." he takes a sharp inhale, "I'll be good. If it means you're mine."
"You promise?" You say quietly, your hands falling to his arms, and he brings you in closer.
"I—"
Something suddenly drops from a closet in the hall, Chris turns to look and you drop your face in disappointment. He had one job: to be quiet.
Chris treads heavily over to the hall, while you try your best to push him back by grabbing his hand, "Chris, wait..." you worriedly squeak out.

Baby It's Cold Outside
Approaching your linen closet, Chris yanks the door open, finding Colin red as a tomato from the constricted air, he clears his throat and smiles at Chris, "wonderful weather we're having?"
Chris grabs Colin by the collar of his shirt and pulls him out, you shriek, "CHRIS!"
Yanking Colin towards the wall on the other side of the hall, Chris keeps him there, an angry, angry, look on his face.
"Chris let him go!" You attempt to push Chris off but it's not used he's way too strong and taller.
"You think you can mess with my girl? MY girl?" Chris furiously yells at poor Colin, Colin's just as angry.
"Your girl? The one you have no idea how to love? How to treat? The homeless guy across the street has a better chance than you!" Colin stupidly says back.
"Colin, please, don't," you still try your best to wedge in between them. The last thing you want is for Colin to keep adding fuel to Chris's fire.
You've never been one for conflict, or violence, you're a teacher for crying out loud, you love kids, and all things pink and small and adorable. You've never even raised your voice to anyone before.
But the way your boyfriend behaves has of course an effect on you...
"I'm going to kick your ass you little prick!" Chris practically roars from how angry he is, shoving Colin against the hallway wall once more.
"CHRIS!" You yell to grab his attention because clearly neither of them are even listening to you, "you let Colin go! Don't hurt him!"
"Oh I'm sorry! Was I fucking interrupting something?" Chris looks over at you with those wild eyes, then at Colin with those same angry eyes.
"NO!" You shout again, "you weren't. Now let him go. Right now!" You make sure your voice is heard. Your neighbors probably hate you by now.
Chris hesitantly let's Colin go, dropping his hands to his sides, Colin smooths out his Free Licks shirt shooting Chris a mean glare.
You grab Chris's hand leading him to your living room space, Colin following behind you guys.
"Get him out of here, Y/n, what the hell was he even doing here? I don't like him—"
