The Bad Boy's Girl

48- Tie

"Lilli!" I yelled throughout the forest.

She said she was here... she said she was here...

"Lilli!" I screamed.

"Kaytlyn!" I heard from afar.

I rushed in that direction.

She had texted me saying help about twenty minutes after she walked out of the dining room.

She couldn't have gotten too far, I knew that. I know that.

When I asked her where she was, and she only replied with the word 'forest', I knew that it was something bad.

Like, maybe even Python bad.

I don't know what I was expecting.

I continued running when I heard a bloodcurdling scream, then I began sprinting.

It was Lilli's.

I had made my way through tree branches, leaves and dirt when I found the source of the screams and the yells.

"Let go of her." I said sternly.

Kaleb looked at me with darkness filling his eyes.

"You don't want to do this, you never wanted to do this, Kaleb. So let her go." I stated, slight fear laced in my voice.

Lilli widened her eyes and looked behind me.

I was confused for a brief moment, but then I knew what she meant.

I spun around and drop kicked the guy right in the head, knocking him right out.

Kaleb looked down at his gang member with worry in his eyes.

Oh look, he does have more than two emotions.

Kaleb looked at me.

"It's okay, let her go." I said, trying to sound calm.

He glanced back and fourth between me, the guy on the ground, and Lilli.

He hesitantly, very hesitantly, let her go.

Lilli rushed over to me.

"If you want to get back alive, you're gonna have to fight me." Kaleb said, darkness filling his eyes once again.

"Me?" I questioned.

He nodded, cracking his knuckles.

"Don't." Lilli whispered in my ear.

I paused for a moment.

I looked at Lilli, then at Kaleb.

"Last one standing, wins." I stated.

Kaleb nodded with a smirk.

Lilli backed up, rushing away from us.

"Lilli? Where are you-," I went to say, but a fist was thrown at my eye.

That's gonna leave a bruise.

I went and jump-kicked him, he toppled backwards, but refused to fall.

He came running at me, but I dodged the hit.

Let the fight begin...

~~~

We both had fought until we dropped. I got it pretty good. But I'd call it a solid tie.

And he was still out, on the ground, laying there, lifeless.

I watched every breath that his unconscious body took as I stood up.

I fought him.

I fell slightly fell to the side, my eyes were going heavy.
