Marcus: where the fuck were you two?
I rolled my eyes walking passed him so Jamal could greet him. I went over to demari hugging him since I haven't saw him since the other night when we went out.
Demari: where were you?
Me: me and jamal got caught up.
Demari: I don't even wanna know.
I laughed hiding my face.
Demari: have you made up with tyree now?
Me: he's still ignoring me, why?
Demari: he's here and came and asked me where you were.
Me: I haven't seen him.
Demari: I think he's outside now.
Demari grabbed my wrist before I could walk out.
Demari: do you think that's a good idea?
Me: I just want to clear everything up so we can have a good night.
Demari: I just don't want you hurt.
Me: I'm good don't worry.
He finally let me go so I walked out to find Tyree.
Me: so you're a smoker now?
He looked at me biting his jaw a few times then carried on smoking as if I wasn't there.
Me: Tyree, what is going on with you?
Me: why would you ask demari where I was if you don't even want to talk to me.
Tyree: it's cold you need to go back inside.
Me: are you serious? That's all you have to say?
He's so lucky I don't have a drink in my hand because I would've thrown it on him by now. I stood in front of him taking whatever he was smoking and threw it on the floor.
Me: what did Jeremiah say to you?
Me: please talk to me. I don't deserve this right now.
I pushed his stomach out of frustration but he didn't even budge so I did it again until he grabbed both my wrists.
Tyree: go back inside.
Me: or what?
We had a death stare match for 30 seconds until he let me go walking back inside. Why is he doing this to me?

For the next hour or so I just sat on the sofa sipping on the same drink. Jamal and all of his friends were a little tipsy and having a good time but I just want to go home. As soon as the new year count down is over I'm leaving. I couldn't see Tyree or what he was doing but every now and then I would see him pop up and then disappear.
Marcus: what's good imarni?
I rolled my eyes looking at Marcus, I know he's drunk right now.
Me: nothing.
Marcus: aren't you coming to dance?
Me: na I'm good.
He nodded getting up as if he was going to walk away and then he sat back down facing me.
Marcus: why do you hate me so much?
Me: Marcus we can't have this conversation while you're drunk. Talk to me at uni when you're sober.
Marcus: I'm not drunk.
I rolled my eyes standing up to go over to the bar but he followed me.
Marcus: be real with me because you're coming in-between me and my boy.
Me: leave me alone.
Marcus: answer my fucking question. You're only mad at me cause I caught you on the phone to your side dude.
Me: mind your own business.
Marcus: why do you hate me so much?
I pushed him by his shoulders since he was getting closer with every word.
Me: what part of leave me alone do you not understand?
Marcus: answer my question.
My breath caught in my throat as Tyree came up to us, it all happened so quickly. He pulled Marcus away from me then Marcus in his drunken manner pushed him back in his chest triggering Tyree to start fighting. Once everyone realised what was going on Jamal jumped in but instead of stopping it he started to help Marcus then romae jumped in for Tyree. Luckily the security guards separated them after a while kicking Tyree and romae out. I made my way out wiping the tears that were rolling down my face.
Me: why the fuck would you do that? You've been ignoring me all week and now you start fights with everyone I know. What is wrong with you?
Tyree: are you fucking serious? I was protecting you.
Me: you didn't need to start a fight.
Tyree: fuck you imarni.
I tried to control my breathing as he walked off. I immediately started regretting shouting at him because he's right... He was helping me.
Romae: are you coming with us Marni?
Me: I need to talk to Jamal.
Romae: for real?
Me: I'm sorry. I can't just leave him.
Romae: he just defended the guy that was messing with you.
Me: I know that.
Romae: so why the fuck are you staying with him, come with us.
Me: I can't just leave. I need to make sure they get home okay.
He kissed his teeth running after Tyree since he was long gone. Why am I getting blamed for this?

We haven't done the new year countdown but I wasn't feeling it anymore I just wanted to go to sleep. I grabbed Jamal's hand pulling him to the exit. We both didn't say a word to each other until we got to his house. The whole taxi ride he kept feeling his busted lip but I can honestly say I couldn't care less.
Jamal: why are you mad at me?
Me: why did you jump in?
Jamal: that's my boy.
Me: you could've easily broke it up.
Jamal: are you serious right now. You wanted me to do Tyree a favour?
Me: you don't even know why they were fighting.
Jamal: I don't give a fuck. If any of my boys are in a fight I'm jumping in no matter what.
Me: you're full of shit.
Jamal: you know I don't like him so why would I take his feelings into consideration?
Me: is that your excuse?
Jamal: why are you mad at me imarni? I didn't even start the fight.
Me: Marcus was following me and wouldn't leave me the fuck alone, Tyree moved him away because he was getting too close. Marcus started it by pushing him and then you came in and defended him like what he was doing was okay, that's why I'm pissed right now. I don't care if that's your friend, you shouldn't of been on his side.
