when we were young//mcr

chapter seven//a mind of its own

Kyle's POV
I look at them walking down the hall. I hate the view and I look at the beautiful girl before me, Eve, I noticed they're holding hands. Before I can hold my self back, I hold Gerard up by his collar and shove him against the wall.

I look at the worthless piece of shit and punch him. Not stopping. I look over to see Eve. Anger in those pale blue eyes. "What the hell, Kyle!" She yells. I don't understand. Why is she mad at me when all I'm doing is protecting her?

I go to hug her but she shoves me and yells, "Are you a lunatic? Who gave you the right to attack this innocent, caring person? Don't talk to me." I'm so angered buy her words and I need Gerard to feel my pain.

Gerard's POV
I'm walking down the hall with Eve's beautiful delicate hand in mine. It was too quick to be pulled away.

I look down to my feet, dangling down. This has become a routine for me. Ya know, Kyle beating me up. I thought that this year he'd just grow up.

He punches me.

Jaw.

Eye.

Chin.

He finally stops and I fix my collar and hold back from crying. It didn't hurt. It was just pathetic how I never try to defend myself.

I walk away until I hear Eve's words. "Are you a lunatic? Who gave you the right to attack this innocent, caring person? Don't talk to me." Eve says.

I look back at her but I don't get a good view of her before Kyle pushes me to the floor and punches me. Harder than normal.

"STOP!" Eve cries, before it all goes black.

•

I wake up and I'm in a hospital bed. I hear the beeping of the machines and Eve's cry. I sit up and she immediately comes to me.

"Are you okay?" She questions me.

I'm not okay. "Yes. I'm fine, but please don't cry."

"I hate to see you like this. Kyle has been my friend for the longest time. He always had a temper but I never knew he was like that. He's such an a-" I cut her off. I don't want to hear about him.

"It's okay, Eve." I tell her.

"No, it's not okay. Don't tell me otherwise. I know you aren't so don't lie. Tell me what he's done to you." She demands.

I sigh before confessing to her. "Okay, it all started in freshman year. I was at a party. My first party. And this urm.. Girl came up to me and gave me a drink. We talked the entire night, I was hammered and the party was still going. I kissed her and she kissed me back. When Kyle came into the room, she scampered off of me with fear in her eyes and Kyle came up to me, punched me and then called the girl a bitch. I punched him back, telling him that was no way to treat a lady. That's pretty much why he hates me."

"Oh. Well who was the girl?" She asked. This was the question I was trying to avoid.

"It was me." A girl says from the doorway. Crap. Eve wasn't supposed to know anything about this. Eve looks back at Elle.

"So the girl is Elle?" She said. "Why is that such a big deal?"

"Because the only reason Kyle was hiding it is because Kyle and I went out. He threatened to "ruin" my life if you ever found out. He told me if I was ever found saying rude things about him or not uplifting him towards you, he'd ruin me."

"Oh. Why doesn't he want me to know about you guys?"

"Because he was like obsessed with you." Elle said. Eve walks out of the room and then walks back in 5 minutes later.

"Gerard. You're discharged. We are going to that diner and we are all going to sort this out. Kyle included." She demands.

Kyle's POV
As I walk into the door of my house, the phone rings.

"Kyle. Meet me at the downtown diner. I have questions." Eve demands. I don't know what the questions were but I don't care. I'm going.

I walk into the diner to see a booth seating Gerard, Elle and Eve. Crap.

I bolt for the door but Eve jumps up and pulls me back.

"I told you. I have questions." She says.

Gerard's POV
I'm staring back and forth between Kyle and Eve.

"Why am I hearing you like me but when I told you I liked you, you liked Jem?" She asks. I look at Kyle waiting for an answer.

"Because I don't want Jem to hurt the way I did when this slut was getting touched by this creep over here." I stand out of my seat about to punch Kyle's pretty boy face when Eve and Elle pull me down.

He laughs. Laughs. Freaking laughs at me. "Ask another question, Eve. Ask him what he'd do to Elle if you found out. Well, Kyle? Speak up." I say.

"I was going to uh." He says. "I wasn't going to do anything. I was out of my mind and I didn't mean anything." He shouts nervously.

"Elle, you know. Tell her. She needs to know." I shout. I needed Kyle to be put in his place.

"He was going to have his friends attack me." She says timidly. Crap. I realized that he was actually serious about this and Eve now knows. I'm such an ass.

I stare at Eve. Her lips Pursed and eyes squinted. "I'm done here. You can leave, Kyle."

I sneak up to her and hold her hand. "I'm sorry." I tell her.

"Why are you sorry? Nobody here should be sorry. Kyle only. Elle. You don't leave my side until we get this sorted out."
