We Are Us

CHAPTER 20: The Game Changer

Ross's House

Clay drives by a trailer, points at it, "That's Adrian's house.", pulls into Ross's house, and we all get out. "Ross! Whaddup?!", and a small woman comes out of a bedroom, she was wearing a nightgown. "Ross said he had to run over to Adrian's house to grab something.", the woman said, "Oh... fuck!", Clay said as he ran as fast as he could to his car, and Lucas and I jumped in as well. "Why are you flipping bruh?", Lucas asked, "Because Tat told me that Ross has had a crush on Adrian since she got with him! I didn't believe him at first, but this shit is diehard proof!", Clay yells, and he slings his car into Adrian's driveway. Her parents are asleep, and all the lights are out, as well as the door being locked. We see her bedroom window open, so Clay jumps in and says, "What the fuck?", I peep in and see the two laying on her bed cuddling, they were face-to-face, so I'm guessing Clay caught them kissing. "What the hell?!", "It's not what you think.", Ross said, "No! It's what I know!", Clay screamed as he dialed Tatsuya's number, "Yeah dude? I'm at your girl's house and Ross was over here kissing her. To my knowledge they're both sober cause it doesn't smell funky and I see no bottles laying around. - Alright, - okay bruh I'll see you in a minute. - I'm sorry.", and Clay comes outside with Ross following. "You and Tat are gonna fight dude. He's walking over here. Walking!", "I don't wanna fight him dude.", Ross complains, "I don't care," Clay stated, "You brought this on yourself! You know the rules about fighting with a member.", "Rules?", I ask out of curiosity, "I guess I can explain while Tatsuya makes his way. Keep an eye on him Lucas, don't let him run.", we sit down in front of one another and he starts the explanation, "You see, there are five rules, they only matter when fighting another member of the brotherhood. No cheap shots, absolutely no jumping, that one goes for a member fight or not, don't run away and pussy out, no weapons, and if the other member doesn't fight back, you get five minutes to whoop their ass. If they hit you as well as once, the five minute rule is off, and you can fight until they tap in a submission, get knocked out, or another member breaks up the fight. We don't allow different genders to fight, but if a girl hits a boy, he can hit back one time in self defense, but not in the face, or where her baby organs are.", "Oh," I say, amazed at the rules they have just for fighting, "that's a lot.", by the time those words came out of my mouth, Tatsuya was walking up Adrian's driveway, taking his Batman jacket off.
