ground as he got them away from me.

They fell like a stack of dominos, and I would’ve laughed had I not been hurting.

“Fuck, man,” Jonah said, sounding frantic. “You okay?”

I gave him a thumb up.

“I now know why the uniform is so ridiculously hot,” I admitted. “Because it’s thick, and meant to

protect you.”

“Did it?” Jonah asked, offering me his hand.

I took it and came to my feet, instantly feeling the rush of blood running down my forearms to drip down onto the concrete.

Suddenly there were even more people surrounding us, quite a few of those people shoving

cameras in both mine and Jonah’s faces.

“We saw what you did to those kids!” a man shouted. “We got it all on video!”

Jonah didn’t look like he gave one single shit what the man did or didn’t have.

“How about you take that video camera and shove it up your fat—” Jonah started.

But I slammed my hand down onto Jonah’s shoulder, momentarily startling him.

“Help me get this bike up and out of the road,” I ordered, hoping that he would let it go.

He did.

But barely.

Before Jonah or I could get the bike up, though, people started to surround us. Most of those

people being teenagers and young adults that were incensed over something we had no clue about.

“What the fuck is going on?” I asked under my breath.

Jonah shook his head. “No fucking clue.”

He helped me stand the bike up between shoving people away from him, and I pushed it into the

parking lot into the space that it normally occupied.

I studied the bike, thinking that despite laying it down, it didn’t look too worse for wear.

“Fucking morons,” Jonah muttered, parking his bike beside mine.

Secretly, I agreed.

But I didn’t voice my opinions. To do so would incite the group that had now flooded into the

back parking lot.

“Let’s go inside,” I ordered.

“Need to get the gate closed,” Jonah muttered.
