“I’m sorry but it wasn’t easy seeing a picture of you with your ex either.”

He scoffs. “That’s exactly what they wanted. She was already there and they’ve been fucking. I caught her on camera knocking on our door the day of our date, and then when you closed the door she went to Xzavien’s room.”

I feel like I've been punched in the gut. “Thats who he was fucking?”

“Yes, Alex. My best friend was fucking my ex-girlfriend.

Does he care?

As if reading my mind, he responds, “And no, I don’t care, but what I do care about is they set it up to look like I was home with her, and you were here with him and that’s fucked.”

I nod in agreement, still shocked at the revelations. “Why though, why do all this?”

He begins moving again, his body radiating with anger that I can feel. “Because he’s fucking jealous and he wants you.”

I shake my head, disagreeing. “No, we are just friends and he knows that.”

Now he’s shaking his head. “Don’t be so fucking naive, Alex, you’re smarter than that.” I try and touch his arm to calm him down and he jerks it away from me. Hurt and embarrassment flood my mind and I turn to walk the other way. He follows. “Alex, wait. I’m just…angry.”

I don't say anything. Instead, I keep walking until I’m outside, and it’s as if it's divine intervention. Xzavien is outside with Erica. Before I can react, Kohen charges X, tackling him to the ground. Kohen doesn’t even give X a chance as he slams his body into the ground by the collar. X looks like a rag doll in comparison to Kohen.

“Kohen, stop!” I shout. I don't want him to get injured, his Olympic career would suffer.

“What the fuck, bro?” X yells, trying to get some type of footing to get off the ground. Bones crunch as Kohen punches him in the nose. Xzavien’s hands go to his nose as he yells, “Motherfucker, what the fuck is wrong with you, Kohen?”

Some of the guys they hang with pull a thrashing Kohen off of X. Panic floods my system, and although I know X didn’t get a chance to defend himself, I rush to Kohen. He isn’t hurt but his chest is heaving, and his eyes look wild as he continues to fight them off to get back to X.

“You’re whats fucking wrong with me, you little bitch.” It takes four grown men to hold him back and not one person is holding X. Even though I know it’s wrong, the sight of Kohen raging turns me the fuck on. The veins in his muscles are bulging and the utter strength it’s taking to contain him is fucking sexy.

“What did I do, bro?” X questions as he steps closer to Kohen with his hands raised in question.

“X, stay the fuck away from him!” I shout.

“Don’t you fucking speak to him,” Kohen spits out at me. His pupils are dilated, he looks savage, like he could rip me to shreds with his look alone. Fear floods my system and even though his anger isn’t pointed at me, I feel it down to my toes. It radiates through me like an orgasm does.

“You see, gorgeous, you deserve better. This is the true Kohen- a fucking monster.”

“I hope you have a good fucking reason for trying to steal my girl, bro, because once I get my hands on you, you’re fucking done.” The guys release him, staying close by just in case. “Y’all settle this shit like men- you're brothers,” Kohen scoffs as he walks up to X like a predator. A lion, while X is a lamb. “I don't know what you don’t understand. Alex is mine.”

I look over at Erica and she’s just watching. It's taking everything in me not to go over there and smack the smirk off her face. I shout, “You like this, don't you, coming in between them?”

She rolls her eyes. “It’s you between them, little whore, not me.”

I bring my attention back to Kohen and he is face to face with X, their noses practically touching. He chest bumps X, and X pushes him back with all his strength, but it just doesn’t compare.

“Look, Ko, I don't have a good excuse, man. I just feel like you swooped her from me, I met her first you weren’t even there.”

Are they really talking about me like I’m not even here? “I’m sorry but fuck you both. I choose who I belong to and I’m sorry X, but I told you we are just friends.”

He takes a few steps away from Kohen, his hands running through his hair. “That’s bullshit Alex and you know it. All the little jokes about wanting to fuck me when we met, the dancing, the dates. You fucking wanted me, until him.” His eyes shoot to Kohen. “Give me a chance, Alex, you deserve better than him. He will never get over Erica, and even if he did, she will never let him go.”

Kohen lunges for him again. “Stop putting negative thoughts in her fucking head. I don’t want Erica, she is a gold digging bitch. I will never want her again.”

I rush to stand between them, not wanting Kohen to hurt himself. “Xzavien, I will never want you. Say I never met Kohen- it still wouldn’t happen between us. I am not a relationship girl. We would have fucked and maybe even more than once, but it wouldn’t have turned into anything.”

He starts to speak but doesn’t get the chance to finish as Kohen shoves me to the side. He swings, uppercutting X in the jaw. He falls to the floor in slow motion like Apollo getting knocked out inRocky IV.Xzavien hits the ground hard. Erica rushes to check on him and he gets up onto his elbows, looking straight at me.

“This is all your fault.” X stands and begins the walk to his car, opening the door before getting in and confusion stirs inside me. He looks...hurt? I just can’t seem to find the energy to fully care. Look at everything he’s done. How is any of this my fault? I was upfront from the beginning, I don't know how much clearer I could have been.
