Jeremy'sP.O.V
There was just something about Brynnleigh that made my heart race almost as if it were trying to escape my chest to hold hers, I sang to her until she fell asleep and I dozed off along with her, I didn't get much sleep last night because all I could think about was Brynnleigh, I want her and all but we live so far from each other and I'm afraid that the distance will hurt us, I know Mike would kill me for hurting her and I understand his reasons. I just need her to be mine, I'll protect her from everything and anyone, seeing that guy attacking her earlier had me so enraged I couldn't think straight, I had to stop myself from killing that guy, I just want her safe, happy and with me I'll do anything.
Lilbit's P.O.V
I woke up a few hours later and looked over to see Jeremy wasn't there anymore he must've gotten up after I fell asleep, I had only slept a few hours but honestly it feels like I've just woken up from a year long acoma, I sat up and my head began to pound and I could feel my self wincing at the pain.
"Lord have mercy I feel like I've been hit by a really big truck" I whispered to myself.
I moved a bit so I can reach inside my bag to grab some clothes out, I grabbed a mint green lace mini dress with my pointed toe cowboy boots, I grabbed my make up bag and pulled out my compact mirror and glanced at my face, there were no bruises no cuts nothing, surprisingly since the guy that attacked me slammed my face into a wall and I fell to the floor but I didn't bruise easy so maybe that's why there wasn't anything, I put on some light foundation with a setting powder, made my cheeks rosy red, mint eyeshadow with a hint of white to tone down the color a bit, winged liquid eyeliner on my top lid and pencil eye liner on my water line, mascara and some light pink lip gloss.
I stood up and walked out of the tent to find a group of my friends, down a ways from the tent stood a medium size group of people and amongst them was my ex, Nathan Smith, Nathan was my first love but we fought like cats and dogs 95% of the time and I just wasn't happy any more so I left, I quickly walked past the group hoping not to be noticed by them especially Nathan.
Nathan glanced over at me and I could see in his eyes that he was still hurt and drowning his sorrows in another bottle of whiskey which wasn't new to me, I ignored him and kept walking down to where everyone was gathered and saw Shannon, she looked a little drunk and it didn't look like it was even 5:30 P.M yet, at this rate we'd be lucky to get her to her tent without her trying to jump someone.
"Hey Lil bit, I heard what happened earlier I'm so sorry I wasn't there to stop it in time, I'm going to kill that bastard all you have to do is point him out and i'll be on his ass like white on rice" Shan slurred
"I'm okay, I promise, thank you for being concerned and I think you need to lay off the mad dog for awhile you sound and smell drunk" I said half giggling
"Speaking of mad dog I bought two gallons of it and you and everyone in our little group needs to help me drink it so it doesn't go to waist cause there are starving kids in china that would love this"
"Um honey starving kids in china need food not alcohol which you do not need any more of" I said taking the gallon of mad dog from her hands
"bull shit, now come over here everyone has been asking where you were" Shan said taking a big swig of what she had in her cup and stumbled back a bit laughing.
We walked over to our little group of friends who was standing around something, when I walked up I could see two guys fighting and everyone was hollering after them encouraging them, I noticed one of the guys was Mike the other I recognized the guy he had tried to hook up with me the day before but I turned him down because he reeked of alcohol and cigarettes, I could see that Mike was winning that fight, I knew no one else was going to break it up so it was up to me," Lil bit to the rescue, this is going to be interesting" I thought to myself
"Hey ya'll quit it now before someone really gets hurt" I said stepping into the circle but they didn't listen to me
"Mike, stop it now, I mean it or I will punch the ever living life out of you" I said and Mike stopped, looked up at me, released the guy and stood up to face me
"He deserves to get his ass beat, he was talking about what happened to you earlier and said you deserved it because you were a trashy whore, so I beat his face in, no body talks about my sister like that" Mike said almost in tears but I could see the rage in his eyes
The guy was standing now, wiping dirt off his pants, blood poured from different parts of his face, I walked up to him and stared him right in the eyes hoping I looked as mad as I was.
"So you want to call me a trashy whore, well listen up buddy I have more class and respect than you will ever have, you never disrespect a lady, and your calling me a whore you've hooked up with what six girls since you've been here, so next time you decide to talk shit make sure you can back it up or you'll end up six feet under for fucking with the wrong person" I yelled in his face and turned to walk away
"What you gonna do about it lil bitch, your so tiny I bet you could hit me right now and do no damage"
I spun around on my heal, walked up to him and punched him in the throat as hard as I could when he fell to the ground I got on top of him and started to punch him harder each time my fist connected with his skin, he kept screaming get off me crazy bitch, I couldn't stop I needed to hurt him as bad as he hurt my feelings, I could feel my fist begin to get soaked with his blood, all of a sudden I felt myself being lifted off of him, and carried away, I got even angrier that I wasn't able to finish him off but I could still hear him yelling after me.
"Put me down now!" I yelled punching the guys back
"No Brynnleigh I'm not putting you down I know you if I put you down you're going to run back to that guy and kill him"
No it can't be "Nathan put me down now"
"Fine but please don't go running back to kill that guy I don't want you to get locked up"
Nathan put me down and I stared up to look at him, Nathan was 6'1, very built, he had about 10 tattoos including the browning symbol he got on his chest to match mine on my hip, he had sandy blonde skater hair and the most beautiful green eyes I have ever seen, I could see the pain in his eyes and his longing to kiss me but I needed to leave before anything happened.
I turned to walk away but he stopped me.
"Please don't turn away from me, we need to talk" he muttered and I could smell the beer on his breath
"There's nothing to talk about Nathan, I wasn't happy anymore all we did was fight and fornicate like animals, you can't have a happy relationship when all we do is fight" I yelled and turned away
"But what about the baby?" he said crying
"Nathan I lost the baby almost 4 months ago there's nothing we can do about it now" I said beginning to cry and walking away for sure this time
I walked back to my group of friends and sat by Jeremy on his four wheeler.
"What's wrong" he said with concern in his eyes
"Nothing just some stupid stuff i'll be fine"
"Well okay then" He said turning to talk to a guy standing beside the four wheeler
Why did Nathan have to bring that up, What am I going to do about all of this, maybe I just need to go back home and be alone for the rest of my life.
