chapter 5
"that wasn't supposed to happen"

chris wasn't expecting jude to come towards him with rainbows and butterflies, but his fist meeting his face definitely wasn't what he expected either!

the punch was tough, and knocked chris back a few steps, stumbling into the gates. dejah gasps and covers her mouth with her hand. chris puts his hands on his face and when he looks down at his hands, there was thick red blood trailing on them. his nose was bleeding, "what the fuck!" he shouts, looking up at jude who's eyes were burning with anger. the air crackled with anticipation as the three of them knew it was about to get heated.

"get your hands off my bitch, hugging n' shit" he shouts, shoving him again. chris immediately grows angry as the words left his mouth.

chris' frustration reached his boiling point, and he pushes jude to the ground, his head hitting harshly on the concrete, "guys stop!" shouts dejah, trying to stop the pair as it was clearly escalating into something more than just snarky looks in the hallways.

jude locks eyes with chris and he stands up quickly to refrain from chris jumping on him. suddenly, the slight pushing and shoving turned into a real fight as chris swung at jude's face, landing a right hook on his nose. "stop! seriously, stop" shouts dejah, having no idea what to do. she stands there, mouth agape, watching them going at it, all guns blazing.

the sounds of fists meeting flesh filled her ears, making her squeal. chris was dodging nearly every punch that was getting thrown at him, all while chris was landing most of his shots making jude weak. "STOP!" shouts dejah, trying to pull chris away from jude who was stumbling backwards. chris ignored the fact that dejah was holding onto him, instead he punched him again. he stops once he sees jude stumble to the floor, grabbing his face in pain before he steps backwards taking in what has just happened. "what have you become chris?" she says, tears in her eyes once again, "just when i thought we could try build a friendship, this shit happens?"

chris' breathes are heavy and slow as he grabs his chest. what did i do.. in that moment, he knew it was wrong but he couldn't help it. he couldn't just sit back and watch him disrespect him and dejah in front of them both, it was wrong. he never intended to get physical, but he started it. don't start a fight that you can't win?

dejah crouches down next to jude, taking a hold of his hand. chris knew he was fucked. completely fucked. now he's even more fucked because he spots the head teacher running towards them. fuck, i'm soo dead.

"what on earth is going on here!" he shouts, pulling out his walkie-talkie to get back up, "dejah, go back inside now." he shouts from across the gate, storming towards them. dejah does exactly that, beginning to walk back inside, leaving a trail of rain as she walked inside on the dry carpet.

jude finally stands up, revealing his busted up lip, with a bloody nose dripping down onto his white hoodie. when he spots the principal standing over him, he begins to close his eyes. he wanted a hole to form from the ground and swallow him. "follow me back to my office and we can all talk. the three you." he says angrily. jude and chris both follow the principal inside of the building, being hit with a wave of warm air as they've been outside in the cold, rain for a while. "dejah, come with us please."

"can't believe i got a 3 week detention for that? he was being a dick, and i get in trouble for it?" complains chris, opening the car door to get inside. nick and matt do the same as quick as they can so they don't get too wet from the rain.

"i completely agree with you chris, if i could punch the shit outta him, i would too." shrugs nick, putting his legs up on the seat earning a look from matt which made him put them down with a huff.

"i agree, but maybe she's changed because we all got invited to her house?" says matt, starting the car. he reversed out of the car park, seeing jude getting in his car, dejah following behind. "damn, you really got him good?" he says, looking through the wing mirror seeing jude's messed up face and the red blotches of blood that stained his white hoodie. nick whips his head around to take a look too, but by the time he does, matt had already turned the corner.

"bro?! go back i didn't see?" shouts nick angrily, "i wanna seeeee!" he whines, crossing his arms in annoyance.

"too slow i guess" laughs matt, chris joining in straight away. "he really thought i was gonna go back just for him to see it" he chuckles, making the car fill with laughter including nick who was now laughing too.

chris followed nick and matt inside the house, being greeted by trevor as soon as they enter. although trevor lightened chris' mood a little bit, he still wasn't feeling the greatest. two arguments in one day with dejah, and then ending it with a fight with her boyfriend wasn't what he planned for how this day would play out. the last few words that she said really stuck with him, "just when i thought we could try build a friendship." she wanted to build a friendship with him, but of course he had to ruin it. he knew that tomorrow he could go to her house and talk to her then but he wanted to talk to her now. "you wanna make pasta with us?" asks nick, grabbing a pack of pasta from the cupboard. he put it on the table in front of them before looking up at chris who shakes his head, "cmon, don't let dejah and her crazy boyfriend ruin your day."

"it's not dejah." he says, making it clear to everyone that he wasn't mad at dejah, "it's just him."

nick glances at matt and they both share a look, "chris.. dejah is kinda just as bad as jude right now? you have to realise that, you can't keep letting her get away with all this shit?" says matt, butting into the conversation. "you do realise that for as long as she's know you, she's ignored you and is now ignoring me and nick too, all for a boy who's not even worth it?"

chris is left speechless. is he right.. "that's not true, i used to close with her remember?"

matts face expression changes. it's like he's seen a ghost, as he runs a forgetful hand through his hair, gripping tightly onto the ends, "oh shit yeah, it's been so long i literally completely forgot. then all of a sudden you guys just didn't talk?"

"then we became friends with nate and she became friends with us too" sighs nick, pouring the pasta into a pan. "i miss those times."
