WITH HER. |Completed|

Ch17 Letter

The guys left after a game of beer pong. They promised mum that they would be back tomorrow morning to clean up. I am not very sure of that, mostly cause they would be hungover.

"They are good people Jack," my mum says suddenly bringing me out of my thoughts.  " I am going to sleep, honey. Don't stay up too late. You can meet her tomorrow." Mum knew exactly why I was waiting near the door. I just smiled at her as she went to sleep.

It was 11:30 pm.  I suddenly hear the bell ring. I run to answer it, hoping it was the person I want it to be. As soon as I open the door, two arms engulfed me into their embrace and a familiar warmth filled me. I knew who it was without even looking.

"I am soo sorry I couldn't make it to the party. I was caught up with something but I swear I will make it up to you" she says hurriedly pulling me inside to the living room.

She made me sit on the couch and I saw her face now. Her lip had a cut on it. it wasn't deep, but it was prominent. I furrowed my brows and asked, "What happened?". She touched her lip and shook her head with a smile.

"First of all, Happy 19 sunshine!" she said hugging me tightly. "thank you but what happened to your lip?" I ask again. "you will get to know in a minute." She says grinning. She then puts her hand in her backpack and removed a box.

"Open it," she says handing it to me. I open it and I was left in awe. "this is awesome" I say hugging her. It was a silver chain and had a locket that said sunshine on it. and behind it had 'Ritz' carved into it.

"The guy at the store took so much time to finish it," she said rolling her eyes. "This is so  sweet of you, you didn't have to do it lioness," I say shaking my head.

I immediately wore the chain and put in inside my shirt. "ok, now explain that busted lip to me lady" I say turning towards her. "see this first" she shows me her phone.

It was a video. It looked like it was at the school basketball court. I see Scar and Venesaa come and they are arguing about something.

I furrowed my brows and continued watching. Suddenly Venesaa punched Scar on her lip. That must be where she got the cut from. My blood was boiling now. She punched her! She is so going to die in my hands! Then I saw Scar throw a sidecut at her jaw. Scar punched Venesaa, not once but twice. And Vanessa looked like she has seen an alien. It was hilarious. I realized what this was. She confronted Vanessa. For me.

"So, yeah. You like it?" she asks putting her phone back in her pocket. "You punched her?" I was laughing my ass off right now. "not my normal punch. I went mild on her" she said proudly.

"When did you do that?" I ask. I would have known If I was there that day. "Today. I was at school the whole day dumbass. That's why I couldn't come in the morning and then the guy at the gift store took his sweet time to finish your locket." She smiled.

"I didn't say you to punch her lioness," I say still laughing. "yeah, but that's what she gets when she touches what's mine," she says quickly. Wait what did she say? I thought she hit her cause she bullied her. Did she call me her's? The expression on her face was enough to tell that she was shocked too about what she said. "What did you say?" I ask her breaking the silence.

"umm.. nothing. She had it coming." She picked out a folded paper from her pocket and handed it to me. "read it when you are free ok." She got up and waved me goodbye.

I didn't move from the place. I was still in a daze about what she said. I felt the blood rush to my cheeks and the sound of the door closing snapped me out of my thoughts. She left. I looked at the paper in my hands. Free my face, I am always free for her. And I open it and started to read It.
