Always Have.....Always Will

CHAPTER 9: Nobody Can Help Me

●RYAN●

It's been a week since Lily and I had an argument and I have made Lynn swear to try and avoid talking to Lily as much as possible.

Lynn's car is in the shop so I have been picking her up and dropping her off at school.

I would always see Lily come walking out, wearing sweats and long sleeves with her hair in her face and getting picked up by some guy. Whom I assumed was Jason. It had to be.

Though I don't know why she hid her face a lot or was always covering her body up. It was amazing.....Wait. I don't care. Remember? I told myself.

Anyways, I started working for Rick again and was taking a break from UFC fighting.

Nick had said a couple days after we got here that he wanted to catch up with a friend of his. Though he hasn't talked to either me or Carlos. But fuck it. Who cares.

One day, I couldn't sleep and decided to go jogging around the neighborhood. I spotted Lily's house and I don't know what made me do it but I felt like I had to see her. I missed her and was still in love with her. Maybe we could at least be friends. Though it would kill me to see her with someone else. But I would rather have her as a friend in my life than not at all.

I ran up to her door and knocked on it a few times. The door swung open and I noticed it was her boyfriend Jason, standing in the doorway, glaring at me. He looked like a bitch to me. All preppy/jock type college kid.

"Can I help you bro?" He asked.

"Is Lily home?" I asked trying to hold myself back from beating the shit out of this guy.

"She's sleeping. What do you want from her?!" He demanded.

"Nothing." I replied upset.

"Let me guess. You're Ryan, right?" He asks.

"Yeah." I replied.

"I'm Jason. And you should do yourself a favor. Stay the fuck away from her! She is MINE! and whatever happened between you two was a mistake." He says with an evil grin as he folded his arms across his chest.

I walked up to him and stared him in the face to show him that I'm not someone you can intimidate.

"And you should watch your fucking mouth. You have no idea who the hell I am." I warned him.

"You're just some little bitch that fucked my slut!" He says with a chuckle.

The next thing I knew, I had swung really hard and punched his face so hard that he fell to the ground and spat out blood. He then started to laugh while getting back up.

"You really shouldn't have done that." He threatened with a sinister laugh.

"I'm not afraid of you, bitch." I tell him.

I just rolled my eyes and started heading back home.

'Why the hell did I do that?' I thought to myself. I shouldn't care. She's the one who hurt me. Now I just punched her boyfriend for what? Jealousy?

I'm glad that tonight I would be occupied with work. It will help me not think about her.

I was in my room, watching some TV when I heard Jason talking to somebody downstairs.
