It's your fault

Chapter forty: I knew it

As we walk in the wide, long halls Demetrius and Cameron stop.

"Cameron's going to take you back to your room." Demetrius has his hand on my lower back as he speaks to Ethan. Though he's speaking to Ethan his eyes are on Cameron, actually telling Cameron to depart it seems. "Why, where are you taking Alice?" Concern grows as Ethan gets tense. "Somewhere safe." Collective in his tone.

"She can stay with me." Trying to intervene with their plan of keeping me safe. If I'm safe, why does it matter where I am? Ethan clearly doesn't want me to go. "Yeah and what are you supposed to do to protect her? From what I've seen you've been doing a pretty substandard job."

Uh oh. Hot guys arguing.

Ethan stands looking vanquished with his eyes first on Demetrius with hate then to me with  betrayal. I have done nothing to receive this menacing look from the one I love. Why does Ethan look at me like I've done something wrong. I stare into his eyes, searching his face for an answer.

"Is there a problem?" I hear as I'm pulled out of my wonders. It's Demetrius asking the question. Then I look at his mug and has a scowl pointed towards Ethan. Ethan has his stanse firm, and strong not seeming scared of whatever he might be thinking is going to happen.

"Yes, there is a problem. You think you can just take my girl and think I'm not gonna have a problem?" I take this as a rhetorical question. I look up at Demetrius and his eyes showing a baleful stare.

"Demetrius." Cameron says already knowing what his intentions are for Ethan. "Take him to his room." Says Demetrius. I look at Cameron and Ethan with wide eyes and jaw dropped.

"Come on Demetrius you look like you wanna do something. You think your a man be a man and do something."

Oh fuck, why did he just challenge the baddest fucking bull? The bull with the sharpest horns and the redest eyes. The bull that don't need a red piece of cloth in his face to charge.

"Demetrius don't." Cameron urges. His hand out just a little as a signal to stay calm. Demetrius does not seem to be listening. His eyes are fixed on Ethan and the same goes for Ethan. They are both standing their ground. I'm still in my wide eyed look waiting for something to 'not' happen.

"Let's go Alice."

What! No response to Ethan's taunts?

He leads me by my lower back, turning us around to walk to our unknown destination. Next thing I know there's a hand on Demetrius's arm and Demetrius wastes no time to turn around and clips Ethan right in the face.

There we go.

Demetrius gets a couple more strikes before Ethan returns the hits just as hard. Demetrius stumbles but only to catch himself and rushes back at Ethan. Ethan gets forced to the wall as Demetrius strikes him again and again. Ethan eats the hits but his nose is bleeding along with his lip.

Cameron finally jumps in to intervene with this tussle. As Cameron tries to push them apart Ethan clips Cameron in the jaw. The muscle in his jaw jumps, he holds it for a second. The look in his eye can only be described as depraved.

Demetrius and Ethan still at it until Cameron loses it completely. He turns into a fucking animal. Seeming without any effort he pushes Demetrius off of Ethan only to take his place. Ethan has nondescript what is going on, he pauses with his hands up slightly.

Cameron has one hand on Ethan's neck and the other holding onto Ethan's face, squeezing like he's unsure. Unsure is something he's not. He moves Ethan off the wall a couple inches only to force him back onto the wall with unspeakable power. Ethan has his hands on cameron's arm trying to push him off, his face turning steamy red.
