Evan gasped as Joe grabbed him from behind, trying to pry his arm from his throat as he struggled to breathe. He noticed the knife Joe dropped, thinking he had to get it first. Evan struggled to escape Joe's grasp but eventually he used his leg to kick behind him into Joe's groin and throwing his head back to collide with Joe's. The grasp Joe had on it, loosened enough for Evan to escape it, creating distance between the two. Evan coughed, getting his breath back before looking to Joe. Anger filled his eyes. This wasn't just about Ella anymore. Joe threatened his life. This was personal.
Evan marched up to Joe, swinging his arm back to land a forceful punch on the side of Joe's face making him fall to the ground. He swung his leg back again, sending a blow to Joe's side like he did to Evan earlier. He was enjoying this way too much. "Yeah! Doesn't feel great does it? Feeling weak! Helpless!" Evan spat through gritted teeth. He turned on his heel to go for the knife but was met by the cold ground when Joe grabbed his ankle to make him fall. The knife was still in reach as Evan grabbed it, quickly turning around and swiping at Joe with it, slicing his skin slightly and dropping the knife just as Joe got ontop of him.
Evan struggled, kicking his legs to get Joe off letting out a frustrated groan.
"Why! Why do you have to do this!? Why do I have to be the one you're after if you love Ella!" He yelled as his struggle came to a stop and he just glared up at the man.
