I looked at Luke and then Colt. They both nodded their heads.

“I’m coming with you,” Grace said in a weak voice from behind me.Advertisement

“No…” Libby whispered.

“Let’s go,” I said.

Luke and Colt turned and started to head out of the emergency room.

“Will! Luke! Colt! Please don’t do this!” Libby shouted.

I closed my eyes quickly to blink away my tears. When I opened them, I knew what I had to do.

We walked into the house, and Grace immediately pointed to Blake.

Most everyone was gone, and Blake was sitting down, talking to two guys. I recognized him the minute I saw him. I started to head over to him.

Grace stepped in front of me. “Will, Alex is going to need you when she wakes up. I’m not sure how much she’ll remember, but she’ll need you. You won’t be able to be there for her if you’re in jail. I told the police everything I knew, and I’m sure they will be here any minute to arrest Blake.”

“She’s right, Will. Let Colt and me take care of this ass before the police get here,” Luke said.

I shook my head. “No, he hurt Lex, and now, he’s going to hurt.”

I walked up to Blake and stopped right in front of him.

He jumped up. “Will? What are you—”

“How far did you get?” I asked.

Blake looked at me. “What? Is Alex awake?”

I grabbed him by the shirt and pulled his face close to mine. “What the fuck did you do to her? I’ll fucking kill you if you touched her.”

Blake pushed me, and I stumbled back, but Colt grabbed me. The way Blake was smiling at me turned my stomach.

“What’s wrong? Your girlfriend doesn’t remember how fucking turned-on she was for me? Her pussy sure was wet enough when I slipped my fingers inside her.”

The flood of anger moved through my body like I’d never felt before. One of the guys standing nearby called Blake an asshole. I took two steps toward Blake and pulled my fist back. Blake was saying something to the guy, and when he turned around, he didn’t see my fist coming straight to his face. The moment I made contact, he fell backward and hit the chair.

I started for him when I felt someone grab my arms. “Let me go!” I shouted.

“Dude, the cops just got here. I want to hurt him as much as you do, but calm the hell down,” Luke said.

Colt walked up to Blake and kicked him in the side as hard as he could. “That’s for my sister, you motherfucker!”

Some guy walked up to Colt and said something to him as he backed Colt away.

Lying on the floor, Blake moaned like the pussy he was. I wanted nothing more than to beat the shit out of him. When the cops walked up, they asked for Blake Turner, and one of his friends bent down and helped him up.

“Who hit him?” the cop asked as he looked around.

No one said a word. I watched as Blake’s friends all shook their heads.

“Fine,” the cop said as he proceeded to put handcuffs on Blake.

“I didn’t do anything wrong. Let me the fuck go!” he slurred.

It was then I noticed how drunk he was. I turned and watched as the cop began reading Blake his rights while walking him out of the house.

Luke walked up to me and put his hand on my shoulder. “Come on, let’s get back to the hospital. My dad sent me a text. My parents are at the hospital, and Gunner and Ellie will be there shortly.”

I began following Luke and Colt out. I glanced over and saw some girl crying hysterically, and one of the guys who had been talking to Blake when we’d walked in had his arm around her as she talked to a cop. I turned and looked for Grace. She was watching the same scene play out as she walked slightly behind Luke.

She looked up at me and said, “That’s Chrissie and her brother.”

I nodded my head. “I’d like to slap the shit out of her.”

“You’d have to get behind me,” Grace said.

I shook my head as I looked back at Chrissie. She looked at me, and her face said it all. She was racked with guilt.

Good. Serves her ass right.

We piled back into Luke’s truck, and my phone went off. I pulled it out to see a text from Libby.

Libby: Will, the nurse said Alex is sleeping, but she’s calling out your name. Please come back.

Me: We’re on our way now.

“Luke, I need something from our room. Please, it’s for Alex,” Grace said.

Luke nodded his head. “Okay, but be quick, Grace.”

When we got to Duren Hall, Grace jumped out of the truck and ran into the building. I continued to stare out the window. I couldn’t drown out Blake’s words, no matter how hard I tried to block them. pqdm.com
