"Or what?"
Professor Hunter took another step toward me, but Tyler shoved him in the chest again. Harder this time. Professor Hunter took a few steps back to steady himself. He shook his head back and forth.
"Tyler," I said quietly. I reached out and touched his shoulder. I didn't want them to fight. They both looked so angry now.
Professor Hunter looked down at my hand on Tyler. He balled his hand into a fist and cocked his arm.
"James!" I screamed.
But he didn't listen to me. He punched Tyler square in the nose.
Tyler cursed as he stumbled backwards.
"Oh my God, are you okay?" I touched the side of Tyler's face. His nose started gushing blood. "Oh my God, Tyler."
He wiped his nose with the back of his hand. "Hold this for me," he said and handed me a small wrapped box. My present. I looked back up and saw him charging at Professor Hunter.
"What the hell are you doing?!" I yelled after him.
Tyler dropped his shoulder at the last second, slamming into Professor Hunter's stomach. They knocked into a few couples dancing as the two of them fell to the floor. They were yelling at each other, but their words were drowned out by the music.
A girl screamed as they rolled over and almost knocked into her. Professor Hunter had blood on his face, and I wasn't sure if it was because Tyler had hurt him or if Tyler's bloody nose had just dripped onto Professor Hunter's face. I looked around for a fire alarm. It was the only thing I could think of to do. But we were in a frat house. There were no fire alarms.
The dance music suddenly stopped.
"I'll fuck whoever I want to fuck," Tyler snarled as he landed a punch across Professor Hunter's face.
Oh my God.
The room was quiet for another second and then people started yelling, "Fight, fight, fight!"
I ran over to them. "Stop it! Both of you, stop!"
I tried to grab Tyler's arm before he landed another punch on Professor Hunter, but I wasn't strong enough to hold him back. Professor Hunter grabbed his axe from the floor beside him and whacked Tyler on the side of the head with it.
He grabbed Tyler's collar and pulled him close to his face. "If you know what's good for you, you'll stay the hell away from her."
"I can end you."
"Then do it." He let go of Tyler's collar and pushed him back down to the floor.
Professor Hunter stood up. He was starting to get a black eye and there was a cut on his lip. There was blood on his face, but I wasn't sure where it was coming from. He gave me a pleading look.
I looked over Professor Hunter's shoulder as Tyler stood up. "Please stop fighting. James, please just go. We can talk tomorrow, okay? Please."
"Penny, do not make me carry you out of here," he said.
"Hey, asshole! She asked you to leave." Tyler pulled his sword from his belt and chucked it at the back of Professor Hunter's head.
Professor Hunter stumbled to the side. He rubbed the back of his head. He gave me one last pleading look.
I didn't know what to do.
"Okay," Professor Hunter said. "Okay." He turned away from me and walked toward the stairs.
Melissa came running up to me. She started talking really fast but I couldn't seem to focus on her words. When Professor Hunter passed by Tyler, Tyler said something to him, but I couldn't make it out. Professor Hunter's head snapped to the side and he rammed into Tyler. The two of them fell onto the table that they were using as a bar.
I ran toward them again. "What is wrong with you?!" I screamed, directing it at both of them. I grabbed Professor Hunter's arm and tried to pull him off. I wasn't strong enough. I let go of his arm and stood back, screaming at them to stop. Professor Hunter punched Tyler one last time and stood up. I couldn't see Tyler. Professor Hunter was blocking my view.Is he okay?
