A Fighter Not A Lover

CHAPTER 7: Why Him?

▪MACI▪

I was sitting on the couch, watching some TV since I couldn't sleep after Julian had come over earlier and then tried to force himself onto me. Which I just kicked him in the balls and scratched his face and he left.

Then later tonight, while still in my room, crying, I heard some drunk girl and Henry come walking in and going into his room, then heard her screaming out his name a few times.

I got annoyed and went into the living room to drown out the disgusting noise by watching Stranger Things on Netflix.

Then after a couple of hours, I heard a bedroom door open up and out walked none other the asshole of the house, Henry.

I ignored him and continued to watch TV.

Then right as I thought he was talking to me to try and really just talk like a normal human being, he says the remark about Juilan and how bad he was in bed.

I just got pissed off and couldn't be near him at the moment and so I stormed off and slammed my door behind me.

I wasn't pissed off at him.necessarily for the remark as much of him saying it to be a douche. Even though he didn't know what really happened and I wasn't going to tell him, I was still pissed that he had to say something so immature and stupid. Besides, I didn't want him to know cause I just knew he would tell me he told me so as in that Julian was an asshole.

*****************************************

A few days after that night, I was going to stop going to class and although I didn't want anyone to know about what happened except for Lexi, I guess she told Karl. Cause after I told him I wasn't gonna be able to go to his class anymore, or at least for on that day, he told me that he kicked Julian out and that I would now have the whole table in class to myself.

So I ended up staying in his class and to have the big table all to myself was really cool.

All of us in the class were listening to Karl tell us what we were gonna be making and right after he tells us to start, the door opens and in walks none other than the devil himself. What the hell is he doing here?

I just ignore the fact that he's there and start getting out a couple of pots and pans and turn on the stove.

Then I see him walk up beside me.

"You need to first put some margarine on that pan to get it ready for the Kielbasa." He tells me.

"What are you doing here?" I asked annoyed.

"Karl told me you didn't have a partner and I had nothing to do so he asked me if I would be your partner." He smirks.

"I don't need a partner, especially you." I snap at him as I begin to butter the pan and and the other one for the bell peppers I'm about to chop up and toss in there.

"Well too bad. I'm just doing this anyways as a favor for Karl. Nothing to do with you. So relax Princess." He winks at me.

I just roll my eyes in annoyance. "Whatever." I say under my breath.

He was so annoying right off the bat. He kept trying to tell me the next step or try and make it sound like I didn't know what I was doing before I even did anything.

Annoyed and npt wanting to create a scene in front of everyone, I whispered yelled at him, "Shut the hell up. You're gonna make me...." I stopped as soon as I felt myself cut my finger.

"Shit!" I whisper yelled again.

I turned and ran towards the back and began trying to run my finger under the water and grabbed the first aid kit that was right next to the sink there.

"Here, let me help you." I heard Henry say.

"No. You've done enough." I snap at him.

"Hey, don't get all butt hurt of you cutting yourself. I didn't cause you to do that." He says.

"You distracted me by being the same old you, an asshole." I fired back at him.

"Fuck you. I was trying to be nice. My god, I don't know how any man could be around  you. No wonder Alex left you." He says and walks away.

He knows Alex? Oh wait, of course he does, they're in the same business and plus, he probably is good friends with him.

Well at least he hasn't teased me or given me shit about my dad.

Come to think of it, I guess in a way it's a little bit of a relief he isn't afraid to be an asshole to me. It makes me think that it doesn't matter who's daughter I am, he isn't gonna kiss my ass just because. So in a way, I should be happy for that. However, still doesn't give him the right to be a complete asshole.

Once I was done with cleaning up and bandaging my finger, I went back to cooking and decided to continue to ignore him.

I'm gonna have a talk with Lexi and Karl and see why the hell they'd suggest for him to be here too. Then to make matters worse, have him be my partner.

Once the class was over, I quickly grabbed my bag and left with the food I cooked.

Hopefully this was the last time I would have to see Henry in the class.
