“You bitch!” She stalked closer. “I didn’t want him.”
“Right. Says the girl who has slept with everyone in her class and probably the whole school by now.”
“Like you have room to talk with your bastard child!”
My face flamed with heat at her words. I really was going to kick her ass now.
“Whoa, down girl.” Danny wrapped his arm around me, holding me where I stood when she stepped back. “Felicity, I’d advise you to back off.”
“She’s delusional,” I said, looking back at Danny. “I mean,” I turned back to face her as I spoke, “if it has penis, you want it. You usually get it too because most men aren't going to turn down sex. Well, guess what, you two-faced Barbie wannabe? Danny isn’t like that. And better yet, he’s mine. Has been for a long time. So take your little band of ass sniffers and fuck off before I let my temper free and break your face.”
“You—” She lunged for me with one of those enraged screams people thought would be intimidating.
Pfft.
I pushed Danny back as I brought my fist around. She wanted to take me on? Okay, we could dance. My fist hit her jaw so hard, my knuckles cracked.
“Dammit. Stop this!” Danny wrapped an arm around me and bodily pulled me back.
“That’s for being you, and if you ever talk about Danny or my son again, as God is my witness, I will beat the blonde off of you!”
“What’s going on over here?” I jerked against Danny when the entirety of the Cannon family pushed into the small area where we were.
“Well, alrighty then.” Tate moved to where we stood, took the tree that Danny was fighting to keep a hold of, and turned to the others.
“I asked a question; what is going on here?” Mrs. Abigail looked between us, and I sighed.
“She was being a pain, so I punched her in the face.” I grimaced.
“It wasn’t Keisha’s fault, Ma.”
“Well, it seems to be handled,” she said, turning away.
“She hit me! I’ll press charges.”
“You do that. I’ll make sure your grandmother knows you started this so when the Sheriff comes to take your statement, she will be well informed.”
The look on Felicity’s face made me smile. She looked around, made a frustrated noise, then turned to stalk back the way she came.
“God, I wanna punch her again,” I said softly.
Danny chuckled. “Easy there, slugger, I think she got the point.”
“Come on, we have trees to buy; let’s not worry about other people.”
We followed after the others. Danny took the tree back from Tate and set it in the wagon Mr. Joe pulled. Atti was in his car seat, knocked out. Poor little guy was missing all the fun. Though, that may not have been a bad thing after all.
“My feet are planning my death.” I flopped down on the Cannons’ couch and watched as the guys fought to bring in the big behind tree.
“Girl, you have no idea.” This was something Phoebe said, sitting with a sleeping Katie lying against her. I looked down at Atti; he was half asleep still.
I was laughing at the guys' antics as they brought in the tree. It stood nine feet tall, was about five feet wide…it was gorgeous. The dark green needles covered the branches in thick waves.
“That tree is simply magical,” Georgie said, taking a seat beside me.
“I’d have to agree. Though the one you got for your house is a beauty too.”
“The one Bree got for the shop window, now that will be fun to decorate.”
