"I'M IN LOVE WITH HER BRAIN, MAN, SHE'S STUCK ON MY MIND"

__

Jennifer's POV:

"No." said Fred, who had just come up behind me.

He wrapped his arm around my shoulders and took a drag from his cigarette, blowing the smoke into Tom's face.

Tom let out a nervous laugh. "I think I was talking to the lady here," he said, clenching his jaw.

Fred passed me his cigarette and walked over to Tom until he was only inches from his face. "Yes, well she happens to be MY lady," he said arrogantly.

I took a long drag on Fred's cigarette as I watched the show in front of me. I had to admit, I was enjoying watching the two of them bicker over me.

"You're living in delusion, buddy." Tom said, stepping even closer to his rival.

Fred smiles mischievously as he gives me a sideways glance before looking Tom in the eye again. "You may think you're important in her life, but you'll always be the guy who almost killed her," he spat at Tom, still smiling.

I looked at the two men in turn, waiting for the bomb to explode, which was inevitable at this point.

Without another word, Tom hit Fred in the face so hard that he fell to the ground. Fred gripped his nose with a grimace who was surely broken judging by the force of the punch.

Tom knelt down to Fred and continued to punch him in the face. Fred tried to defend himself as best he could, but Tom's rage was clearly stronger. Tom's face was red, his eyes practically inhuman. He looked like an animal.

I threw my cigarette to the ground and crushed it under my heel. "Fuck this shit", I mumbled before moving towards Tom.

"Tom, please, you're embarrassing me," I said, looking to the side to see the crowd watching the show.

Tom continued to hit the poor Fred without stopping. "TOM, STOP IT, YOU'RE GOING TO KILL HIM!" I shouted at him.

At my words, my two brothers followed by Bill, Georg and Gustav rushed towards us. Bill threw himself on top of his brother to pull him away from Fred, while my two brothers looked at Fred's miserable state.

Chloe and James also rushed behind me and without saying a word, Chloe took me in her arms while James headed for Fred.

"What happened?" asked Chloe gently, stroking my arms.

I glanced behind me to see that Oliver was on the phone, probably calling for an ambulance, while John and James were trying to wake Fred up by slapping him.

I then turned to Tom who was being yelled at by Bill and pushed towards his car. Georg and Gustav followed without saying a word, surely sensing that they weren't welcome.

I finally turned to my best friend. "I want to go home," I said before resting my head on her shoulder.

Chloe nodded as she took me by the hand and pulled James aside to ask him to take us home. James watched me uneasily for a few seconds, but agreed.
