THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY

Chapter-30

" Did you get hit by a bulldozer or something!" Beth shot a question.

Luke was on his bed keeping the ice bag on his cheekbones and his lips.

" Bulldozer does better than this" Luke said glancing at roger.

" Don't give me that look...you deserve it!" roger said. he sounded like a matured guy ; sitting leaning on the wall throwing basketball on the basket in his room.

" Wow! why do you guys even talk like that?" beth asked.

They exchanged looks. roger still on his serious face while Luke looking away.

" Wait..don't tell me that he did this to you" beth said.

I looked at roger. he didn't say anything. so she was right. he did this to him. a thing that would never expect him to do to his buddy.

" it's in the big brother theory" roger said. He said looking at me. " whoever kisses your sister in public even if it's your buddy then kick his ass of unless he's her boyfriend'' he said as if he's reciting it.

" Waaahh!! I like that give me a five!" she said and raised her hand to him.
But he just shot a look. a serious one.

" Okay...i'll keep that." she said and sat down again.

" You didn't have to do this.." i said.

" This is just a sample.."

" Oh then why don't you give me another punch if you're desperate enough"

" Don't ask for it..i may go out of my control"

" Will you guyzz just stop!" i said.

Everyone turned to me as if i did something wrong.

" You guys don't have to fight for my sake" i said.

" Then what should i do..just sit watching you kissed by my best friend" roger said.

" You talk like i used that situation to kiss her!"

" Isn't it the truth?"

" I was saving her from that asshole!"

" By kissing her?"

" Enough!!!" I snapped. " Stop repeating it again and again. You make me feel sick"

" See i'm sorry..i didn't do it on purpose...it's just.." he looked like he was really sorry. " I'm sorry.."
But more than that he looked like he regret it. and i don't know why but that made me sad.

" Why are you here anyway?"

" Yea..i totally forgot about that..i'll be going to my mom's house for a week"

" A week?" luke and roger said together.
Roger glanced at luke making him turn to ashes.

" Why a week?"

" It's been a routine..one week with mom and other with dad "

" Isn't it a little tiring..?"

" Little?" i asked chuckling.

" And guess what! We're sending her to a den!"

Roger gave her a questioning look.

" is she going to her stepsisters...were Teena lives?"

Luke said jumping from bed. his expression turned.
is there anything between teena
And luke?
I hated to think like that. i shook my head off and focused.

" Yea...guess who's gonna get punched next" luke said.

" Okay..i ll drop you off and make sure that they won't even dare to touch you"
