-2 years later-
"What the fuck man!" Shane yelled as Jeff pushed him back.
"She's my girl!"
"Not in her fucking mind!" Shane yelled pushing Jeff back. I could feel Rebecca clutching my arm. I heard her soft sobs from behind me, then she yelled.
"STOP IT! Just Stop it!" before she fell back into sobs.
Neither man took their look from each other.
"Rebecca stay out of this" Jeff spat
"She can do whatever she wants"
"Lina make them stop"
Pulling Rebecca around to my side, I wrapped my arms tightly around her.
"Look at what the two of you are doing to her. LOOK!" They pulled their gaz away from each other to look at Rebecca who had buried her face into my ribs. "You are hurting her MORE by doing this!" I wrapped both of my arms around her. "Work your problems out. Figure out who gets the girl. Or neither of you get her." I felt Rebecca's grip tighten before I ushered her out of the room.
We laid on the grass in matts and my backyard out of view. Rebecca had laid on my stomach and was till crying.
"Why, why are they doing this" she managed to studder out.
"I don't know angel. They should be doing this. You've been with Shane for almost a year. Even if Jeff claims to have loved you for so long"
"you don't think he loves me?" I felt that Rebecca was looking up at me.
"If he did love you angel. He would've told you long ago. Before Beth had the baby, before a lot"
"yeah" then her head was laying down again.
"It'll all be okay. Do you want to stay with Shane?"
"I guess"
"what?"
"I mean," she sighed. "I really like him and all. But it just seems like how we were before. I don't get butterflies when I see him. I don't feel like I do when I see Jeff. You know what I mean. You did marry Matt"
"You don't get butterflies with Shane?"
"No, I don't. I guess we've been too good of friends for too long"
"that makes sense, But your trying to make it work"
"I am. But, If its going to cause fights. I mean, how do we know they're not beating the holy hell out of each other right now"
"well, they might be. They probably are. But someone is in the house besides just them. They're always is."
"Lets hope."
"Yeah"
