They continued wiggling the door knob trying to get in but after a few seconds they stopped and walked off. while they were gone I tried to opened the window but then I heard the door knob moving. I heard when the door unlocked and quickly charged at the person trying to get in and tackled him down. I quickly got up and ran down the hall. I was going down the stairs until I heard voices. I stopped midway and started backing up slowly. As I got to the top of the stairs someone put their hand on my mouth and wrapped their arm around me so I wouldn't move. I'm guessing it's a guy because this person is really strong and their arms are pretty muscular. But I'm not giving up that easily. I stepped on his toe as hard as I can making the person let go of me. I turned around and punched him in the gut and was about to punch him in the face until I saw who he was. "Ash what the hell are you doing!!" I angrily whispered.

"Well I'm trying to save you but all you keep doing is hurting me," he says while rubbing his stomach. "Well you did grab me from behind, what else was I suppose to do." "Yea I guess you're right, but right now you need to go to Josue's room while we'll deal with them down there." "Ughh I can't believe he invited me here and all this gang stuff happened," I rolled my eyes and started walking towards his room. I went inside and locked his door. I kept the lights off so no one could know I was in here. I sat on Josue's bed and took out my phone to see what time it was. Great it was already 12:47 and I'm still here. I would rather be home on my bed sleeping peacefully, not caught up in one of Josue's gang business. I was waiting for over fifteen minutes already and started to feel tired. My eyes started feeling heavy and were hard to keep open.

I started drifting to sleep until I heard a noise. My eyes popped back open and I looked around the room. I turned and saw the window open. I ran to open the door but someone grabbed me by my hair and threw me back on the floor. I hopped right back up ready to fight this asshole. He had a mask on his face just like the rest of the guys I saw down stairs, he was also tall. "You really must be stupid if you think you can take me." This is what I hate about guys they always think that women are useless and can't fight but I'm about to prove him wrong. "You really shouldn't underestimate me, I mean you have no idea what I'm capable of, " I smirked at him.

We kept circling each other made the first move. I kept looking at him and he does look well built and tall but I'm probably faster. He swung his right arm trying to throw a punch but I dodged it. He then looked at me stunned thinking I wouldn't dodge his punch. "Dang you really would hit a girl that's not even half your size."" You're a piece of shit for trying to hit a girl." I said to rally him up. He tried throwing another punch but I quickly dodge that one too. "Wow I really thought you were gonna be a good fighter since you're in a gang but you're not even a decent fighter," I smirked at him waiting for him to get more angry. He lunged toward me out of anger which gave me an advantage. I dodged him again and went right behind him. He turned to face toward me and then I punched him hard as I can. He stumbled back holding his face giving me another chance to punch him. I threw another punch then grabbed his head and hit it with my knee. He fell on the floor knocked out cold. "And that's why you shouldn't underestimate me."

I heard footsteps coming closer to the room. I was ready to fight anyone else who comes in here. The door opened and without looking I attacked the person. I threw a punch after punch until the person caught my hand and pulled me close to them. "What the hell." I struggled in the persons grip. This all felt to familiar and their touch felt familiar too. Suddenly the lights turned on and it was Josue that was holding me. "Did you really had to punch me that hard?" He started rubbing his cheek. I pushed him away glaring at him. "What did you want me to do huh? I thought you were another bad guy like him." I pointed to the guy that was on the floor. "You did that to him?" "No he just decided to sleep on the floor in your room," I rolled my eyes. "I'm kidding you don't have to be sarcastic," he laughed.

I walked past him and started to head downstairs. "Hey where are you going." I turned around to see him following me. "I'm going home because It's late already,"I said sounding annoyed. "I can drive you back." "No thanks I rode my bike here." "In that skirt?" He eyes looked me up and down. I rolled my eyes at his comment. I turned to face him just to see that he was smirking at me. I don't get it, when I was with him in his room he was being a dick and now he's trying to act all nice? "What do you want from me?" He looked at me confused. "What do you mean?" " You invited me to your party and invited me to your room then while we were up there you were acting like a complete asshole and now you want to be all nice again?" He stayed quiet just looking at me not knowing what to say. "That's what I thought." I turned back around and walked out of his house. I got on my bike and drove home. By the time I arrived it was already 1:30 in the morning. I went inside trying to be quite so I don't get caught.

As I was making my way toward the stairs my brother stopped me. "So what made you come back home this late." I turned around to see Ryan sitting on the couch. "Having to fun partying I guess? but why are you still up?" He got up and started walking towards me. "Rose I was waiting for you." He looked at me concerned. "Welp now I am here so you can go to sleep." I turned around but Ryan grabbed my hand to face me towards him again. I pushed him back and he let go of my hand. "What did I tell you about touching me." "Rose I know gang stuff happened at the party. What happened over there? Did anyone hurt you?" "I'm fine Ryan." I said harshly. "How did you know something happened?" "I have friends who tell me stuff." That kind of sounded a little weird. "Look Rose I told you not to go to that party because Josue is dangerous." Oh no not this again he's being so annoying. "You need to stop hanging out with him Rose, all he is, is trouble." He is right about that no doubt but he can't tell me what to do because he doesn't like him. "How about you stop trying to play big brother," I rolled my eyes feeling annoyed. " Like I said you were never a big brother to me back then when I needed you so don't start acting like one now." He had a hurt expression on his face but I don't care, it's what he deserves. And with that I walk upstairs to my room. I'm to lazy to take a shower so I'll just take one in the morning. After a long day I really need some sleep. I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.
