Gwen

As I go to slap that asshole's smirk off his face. He catches my wrist before my hand even touches him. I roll my eyes and try to pull my arm away, but his grip is so strong. "Let go of my fucking hand before I knock your teeth out!" I scream at him as I try to punch him with my other hand. But of course he catches that one as well. I sigh and suddenly an idea pops into my head. 'I should not give up so easily, just kick him where it hurts' I thought. So I raised my leg and kicked him in the nuts so hard, that he let go and doubled-over, falling to the floor.

As I began to walk away I heard him say "Gwendolyn, please let me explain myself, just this once." I took a deep breath and said "I'll think about it." I walked back to my friends and ordered a drink. But of course before I'm even able to take a sip of it I hear commotion and turn around to see what it is about. It was a drunken Noah, yelling at a sober Cody.

Cody

I was just minding my own business, taking shots with my girlfriend, Sierra, when all of a sudden Noah comes and taps on my shoulder. I turn to face him, but before I can say anything he decks me in the face. "Fuck you, Cody, you t-t-to...hic..ld Owen that I only broke up with Emma because I hate being s-strai...hic...ght," he said with slurring words. I held my nose in pain as I said "What the fuck are you talking about dude, I never would say anything like that about you, or Emma."

Noah tries to throw another punch towards me, but before he could a familiar looking face grabbed him. "What are you two pip-squeaks fighting about anyway?" he asked in a stern tone. By that tone of voice I knew exactly who it was. It was Duncan. The same Duncan I knocked out with one hit in Greece. That same one that my best friend broke up with. "It's actually a pretty dumb reason," I remarked casually. 

That's when I noticed he wasn't looking at me. He was looking behind me, at Gwen who was clearly wasted. It's not everyday that she gets wasted. Something must have set her off, or someone, I think as I look at Duncan

Duncan

After I got kicked in the groin by Gwen, I went to the bar to ask the bartender for a bag of ice. As soon as she gave me the bag I sat down in a chair and placed the ice pack where the pain had originated from. It took at least half an hour to clear up as I thought to myself, 'Damn, that woman still has my heart, after all this time'. My thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the sound of two familiar voices.

I look over to where they are coming from, but I can't see them from the huge crowd. So I get up and push through the crowds to see who the voices belonged to. Then I saw them, the two pip-squeaks that Gwen still hangs out with, Noah and Cody. Out of the corner of my eye I see Noah about to throw a punch at Cody, it looked like for a second time. I hurried up and grabbed Noah by the arm and said sternly, "What are you two pip-squeaks fighting about anyway?"

I saw Cody thinking about something but turned away, so I didn't really hear what he said. The only person that caught my was my ex-girlfriend, Gwen. She was clearly drunk. I'm guessing I was the reason for her getting wasted. I saw her trying to go home with some random guy, so I knocked the guy out and took her home in her own car. I only knew where her apartment was because of her GPS in her car. After I got her home I set her in bed and put the essential shit next to her bed and walked out.
