Trapped with my Badass Neighbour

9. Skate Parks - Boards - Bruises - Punches - Fights - Old Friend

~This is Destiny's ex-boyfriend Michael. You will learn a little bit more about him in this chapter. Also he will be featured in a few more chapters after this, that's why I gave him an identity :) This chapter isn't long sorry... :( but I still hope that you love it! ~

Returning to school was the same old thing. People asked where I was, but I just said I was sick or some shit, because really they didn't need to know and I couldn't be fucked getting into all the details of my fantastic weekend!

After school, the boys and I decided to go down to the skate park. Andy especially wanted to go because he got a new board! And he is so excited to try it out.

The boys were already there when I arrived. We got straight into the full swing of things and skated around. Doing tricks and showing off our moves.

While I was chilling on a bench watching Matt doing a few tricks, Andy and James went over to the Coles that was next to the skate park to get us some drinks and snacks.

Soon I feel someone sit next to me on the bench. I turn my head and what I see isn't what I would've ever expected to see MICHAEL MY FUCKING JERK ASSHOLE DOUCHE BAG EX!! I hate him.

He looked over at me with a devilish grin. "Why fancy seeing you here..." "Hmm" I reply not really wanting to talk to him. "I see that you're still chilling at this dump. Where are your usual buddies? What were their names again? I don't remember because it's been sooo long since I saw you!" He said attempting to sound 'excited' pfft. "Agh, as if you couldn't remember James and Andy. And I couldn't care less that it's been ages since I last saw you, and for me it was a bloody miracle." I answered rudely turning away. "You know I've missed you..." He gently said placing his hand on my upper thigh. Now I was in some really short shorts so he was getting a little too close for my liking. I pushed his hand away and stood up grabbing my board. "You know what Michael, don't touch me there ever again. And I couldn't give to shits where the fuck you've been all this time, because I've moved on from you. You're a jerk and I'm glad that I broke up with you when I did. Now please leave me alone, because I wouldn't hesitate to beat your ass if you ever touch me again!" I started to walk away, then I felt someone's arms wrap around my waist pulling me towards them. I turned around to see Michael, oh my fucking god! Can he not go AWAY? I pushed him away but this only brought him closer to me.

"What's going on?" I hear Matt say as he gets closer. Michael is holding onto me tightly, I push him again than punch him straight into his jaw. He fell back a bit than looked at me as if to say WHAT-THE-FUCK?-YOU-FUCKING-BITCH! I just smiled, "I said don't fucking touch me. And I could have just slapped you I know... but I found this method funnier and more affective for me to push my point across."

"NICE HIT DESTINY!" James yelled as he got closer. "Yeah nice job, who is this dude again?" Matt asked me, as he placed his hand in mine. "This is my ex, Michael." I replied. "Hey it's that fucking dickhead that we used to know!" James said surprised at seeing Michael. "Nice to see you too." Michael said while he death stared James. "Hey Andy, how's your sister?" Michael asked tilting his head to the side and raising his eyebrow. Michael was on the floor in seconds, with Andy on top punching the death out of Michael. "Now you've fucking done it Michael! YOU IDIOT!" I yelled.

Michael flipped Andy, so that he was on top. Now Michael was throwing punches at Andy. They rolled around for a little bit. Then I looked at Matt, and we both knew that we needed to break it up now. I look over at James who's yelling out "FIGHT! FIGHT! GO ANDY! PUSH HIM! PUNCH HIM IN THE STOMCH! KICK HIM IN THE DICK HARD!!!" I pinched the bridge of my nose, as I hear Matt lightly laughing next to me. "Come on James help us break them up." I said grabbing his arm, "WHAT? Why can't we just let nature flow...? I mean it's just starting to get good!" I looked up at James in shock, "Are you fucking serious James! Andy is getting hurt and you don't give a shit!" "Okay... sorry let's help him." We ended up breaking them apart.

Michael had: a broken nose, cut lip, black eye, and a few scratches from the floor. 
Andy had: a cut lip, and a few scratches from the floor. So according to James as he added up the 'results'. "DRUM ROLL PLEASE!" He yelled as he started to make drumming sounds, and banging his hands on the bench. "It was 2-4 so Andy WON! YES THAT'S MY BOY!" James yelled and jumped up and down like a child. "James," "Yes Andy my man!" "Shut the fuck up," Andy said as he applied the icepack that I handed him. We were all now at my place. My parents were out for dinner and won't be back till late, and Nora was having a sleepover. "Hmmm tough crowd ssss... I'm sure that later on tonight, or tomorrow, or maybe even next week you shall rejoice with me Andy! I will make sure of it and we can get so fucking wasted, that we will be having a hangover for days! It will be EPIC!" Andy just sighs... "James does your brain, or whatever you have actually stop?" "Well I'm actually quite intelligent, it's just that you guys tend to ruin my fun, or whatever epic and sick idea that I have."

Well... that argument went on for a while till we all ended up calling it a night. James and Andy left while Matt stayed back. I knew then and there why... this all lead back to Michael agh.

"You know what I'm going to ask you don't you?" Matt said as he walked into the lounge room and sat on the couch. "Unfortunately I do... you're going to say who is Michael? I want all the details, and why did Andy react the way he did about his sister..." I said as I sat next to him on the couch. "Bingo. Now come here." He pulled me onto his lap and wrapped his arms around me.

I let out a sigh then begun.

"2 years ago Michael was a new student at our school. We connected pretty quickly, and soon we were dating. Michael became a part of the gang. We dated for a year. Than in January Andy came ran up to James and I before school started and said that his sister was... pregnant. We all left school and went straight to the hospital where she was, now she was only 15, 15! So she wanted to make the decision on going through with an abortion. Once the three of us entered the room, Andy asked her who the father was. She said that she was pretty drunk but she said that Michael had sex with her. I wasn't angry at her because she actually didn't know about our relationship, I was flaming furious with Michael. She ended up going under for the abortion and she never woke up..." I was now crying and sobbing. It still really hurts whenever I think about Valentine or speak about her... Matt wiped my tears and I continued. "I went to Michael and slapped him in the face, I also broke up with him. He said that he didn't give a shit about her dying. He also said that he was moving away somewhere else so he was going to leave me anyway. I asked him if he cheated on me with anyone else and he said that he's been fucking many girls but, he was sooo good at covering up his tracks that I never suspected a thing. I slapped him again than walked away never seeing him again till today." "Sshhiitt..." "Yeah shit alright... Andy's still really sad and angry about Valentine, I feel so sorry for him. I sometimes blame myself for never telling her about Michael, then she would have never fucked him than she would still be here..." Matt placed both of his hands on my face and pulled it towards his. "Look, I may not have known Valentine, but I know you. You're a beautiful person who is strong, selfless and kind. If you could go back you probably would change your actions... but it's in the past now. There's no point getting trapped in that never ending maze. You should climb up the walks and leave that place and search the unknown for a change, a future."

I just smiled and kissed Matt not letting him go.

"I love you" I blurted out loud. "What?" Matt said as he pulled away, "Oh shit! You weren't meant to hear that." He just smiled and kissed me gently on the lips, "Destiny I'm the biggest chicken and thinker when it comes to this sort of thing. I over think the situation and my thoughts get the best of me. I was too worried that if I opened up to you, you'd reject me. But I had a bit of luck when you accidently slipped those words. And I'm proud to admit and say that I love you Destiny Strider. And this isn't just any love, this crazy unbearable love that I've never felt before in my life! I never felt this drawn to any one before and it kind of scares me but, at the same time I love the feeling of wanting you 24/7." I laughed and just wrapped my arms around Matt's neck tightly.

"Please don't break me..." I whispered in his ear.

"I won't."
