The Place of Love

Revenge

"Cal are you crazy!? I'm not letting you do any of this!" Steve protested the entire time. We stood behind the line of tents one of which was Shane's. I tried to convince Steve on letting me do this but he just wouldn't let me. I had somehow pulled his heavy self until here with him protesting throughout.

"Steve please! I can't take revenge for what he and his family did to you. But I can definitely promise a blue eye for him tomorrow!" I tried. "I will not let you enter his stupid tent. For whatever you are planning to do just forget it! It's not happening" he wouldn't listen.

"Steve please! This is not just for you. It's for me too. After what he did to me.. I won't let him sleep in peace tonight" I said without realizing he didn't know about the thing Shane told me today.

"What? What did he do to you?" Steve asked anger rising to his head. "Did he touch you? Cal tell me what did he do?" I had to control Steve for now. I wanted to take my revenge on my own. If I let it be Steve's way, Shane would be bleeding by now and it would be the end of 'El Lugar del Amor'

"I'll tell you what he did after taking my revenge okay?" I attempted to convince him knowing it would be a fail. "Tell me right now Cal" he ordered. I sighed in defeat. I placed both my hands on his shoulders keeping him in place. "Steve please don't overreact but Shane.. actually asked me today.. to sleep... with.. him"

What I saw next made my eyes widen in alarm. I saw his ears turn red and his hands curl to a fist. I had to do something soon to keep him calm. If I couldn't, it wouldn't be a good day for the Master and Mistress too.

I looked him in the eye, placed one hand on his cheek, and kissed him on the other cheek. I felt his muscles soften under my lips. His anger didn't melt completely but the urge of breaking Shane's face was replaced my something else. My body shivered only by the thought of it.

I pulled away slowly whispering in his ears "Let me do this Steve. Trust me. Wait for me here okay? I'll be fine" his head moved and I took it for a nod. I turned towards Shane's tent taking a deep breath but not before Steve warned "If you don't come out in ten minutes I'm coming in."

I had no plan in my head. Nothing but the urge to punch him on the face. And I would do just that. I walked slowly towards his tent making no noise. People in the neighboring tents seemed to be asleep. I heard a few noises from a tent while passing by it but decided to keep my mind clear and not to imagine what was going on in there.

As I reached Shane's tent, the light inside it was glowing. He probably wasn't already asleep. I glanced at where Steve stood and by the looks of him, he seemed to be ready and prepared for anything, his eyes glued to me. Clutching the entrance of the tent I took a deep breath and pulled it open.

Shane snapped his head towards the entrance of the tent. He sat on his mattress typing something on his phone. As soon as he saw me, a wide and evil smirk appeared on his lips. He sat up straight still staring at me as if asking himself whether I was really in front of him.

I made the most pale face I could. I had done a few acting workshops just for the fun of it during high school. I mentally tapped myself on the shoulder and decided to use those skills today. I tried hard to make myself look like a damsel in distress and walked towards him only waiting for a chance. And then, I had a plan. I imaginarily smirked at myself before putting it to action.

"Shane I'm sorry about today. I was wrong about not needing you. I realized I really do need you" saying this I walked towards him. His smirk grew wider as I approached him not knowing what awaited him.

As I reached the mattress where he sat, I stuck my leg below it. With all the energy that I had I forced myself to trip turning sideways and in a fraction of a second, my whole body with my elbow aiming at his hard chest fell on him breaking his ribs with the force. He let out a yelp but controlled himself to the fullest.

I managed to stop myself from bursting into fits of laughter and glued the sad face on mine again "Oh no! I'm so sorry Shane!!" I exclaimed "I didn't see the mattress! I was so worried! I'm so sorry!" I said batting my eyelashes. He forced a smile on his hurt filled face before saying "It's okay Cali.. ouch.. I.. understand" he managed from the pain.

I sat beside him trying to act awkward and distressed. He needed to believe that I was broken. That's when my plan would work. Controlling his pain he placed one hand on my shoulder "Don't worry beautiful.. I'm here for you. You can use me to remove your stress" his dirty face spat out.

I knew exactly what he meant. I was going to show him how I would use him now. I smiled sadly and looked up at him. He started to lean forward to kiss me. I took my aim. With all the strength I had gained from the training with Kaden when we were kids, I punched him on his face hard and firm. My legs worked at the same time kicking him in his groin. He groaned in pain turning to the other side of the mattress and I played my role.

"Shane!!! I'm so sorry!!! I have never done this before! I got nervous! I lied about my flings! Leave flings! I've never even kissed anyone in my life before. You were the first! I'm so sorry did I hurt you?" I ranted holding my laugh.

He didn't even turn. His eyes were shut in pain. He didn't even know where it pained him the most. I grinned wickedly and delivered my final dialogue. "Oh no Shane! I hurt you. I'm sorry!" I cried out in an irritating voice and got up running out of his tent.

Sad little Shane! Do you think Cali did the right thing?
I wanted to show Cali as someone who does not need someone to fight for herself. She chose her idea of revenge and I think she pretty much succeeded and in a safe way!
