“Trust me. Me burning your shit had nothing to do with dating again and everything to do with you being a piece of shit and cheating on me, bitch.”

“Well damn.” Reena held her hands up in mock surrender and chuckled. “Come on, man. I know you didn’t throw my shit away.”

“I did.” Jayme reached over and smacked Reena’s hand off the door. “Now, move.”

“Jayme.” Reena put her hand back. “You fucking with me?”

“No.” Jayme hit her hand again. “Now, move.”

“Bitch, I had shit in my stuff that I can’t just go out and replace!” Reena sniped.

“Oh well.” Jayme hit her hand a third time.

“Don’t fucking touch me again, Jayme!”

“Then fucking move!” Jayme hissed.

“Nah. You’re going to?—”

Jayme cut her off. “You’re not going to tell me what I am or am not going to do and I’m giving you one more chance to move then I’m going to rock your fucking jaw, Reena.”

“Fuck you. You always?—”

Jayme cut her off again. “Are you going to move or not?”

“Nah. I’m not moving until you?—”

Her statement was cut off a third time by Jayme’s fist cracking into her jaw. They immediately started fighting. Jayme punched Reena into the door so hard it flew back and the little glass cracked.

I was in literal shock as Jayme and Reena fought in the doorway of the apartment building until Reena seemed to get Jayme in a headlock. I dropped my bag, walked over, and hit Reena in the mouth as hard as I could. Reena let go of Jayme and we started fighting instead.

I hadn’t ever fought and my hand immediately hurt from my first hit. My head started hurting when Reena grabbed me by my hair and jerked me in so she could whack me in the face with her other hand. I grabbed her hair and somewhat dragged her down. Then I was dropped to the ground when Jayme popped Reena with a quick three piece that sent her stumbling into the back wall. Jayme got ready to straddle her and punch her more.

“Oh shit!” Two of our neighbors ran toward us. “Break it up! Break it up!”

They jerked Jayme back then one of them circled around to help Reena to her feet.

“Every time I see you, I’m going to knock your head off, Reena!” Jayme walked over to my bag and grabbed it. “And you were right! I’m fucking my baby daddy again, bitch!” She grabbed my hand and pulled me along through the broken door.

We walked to the elevator in silence then tumbled in side by side. We were both breathing hard, hand in hand. Jayme looked over at me then did a double take. She reached up and I almost flinched before she touched the corner of my forehead.

“You have a little mark there,” she said softly. “She probably had a ring on, weird bitch.”

“It’s fine.” I reached up to touch it myself and exhaled. “We jumped someone,” I said quietly.

Jayme looked over at me. She giggled. I smiled.

“We beat that bitch up.” She shrugged.

“Yeah. We did.”

Jayme leaned in and kissed my forehead. I looked at her and she kissed my mouth too.

Chapter 15

Jayme

I tooka little sip out of the juice box in my hand then handed it down to Blake who took it from me and immediately rushed off toward his room. I crossed my arms over my chest and tilted my head as I watched my dad change the lock on my front door just in case.
