Fists, elbows, knees any body part that could cause damage to a human body were being lunged at each other, claws were out and it didn't look like the two girls were going to stop any time soon, by now a circle of people had gathered round to watch having heard all the commotion from the scruffle, everyone was shouting and catcalling, you wouldn't be able to hear your own thoughts, Rebecca didn't care about what was happening around her, all she cared about was making sure she was winning the fight.
Every time one of the girls would step back someone from the crowd would push them back in.
A very drunk Billy Tessio stood there watching with a smirk on his face, Castle Rock was a pretty fast paced town when it wanted to be, but you couldn't get more fast paced than this, he was so engrossed with the fight he didn't hear or feel Charlie Hogan come over and place a hand on his shoulder.
"Jesus, Billy! It's like a war zone here, shouldn't we do something?" Charlie worryingly asked, watching as Rebecca threw a fist at Amelia.
"Are you kidding me, Hogan? You never break up a girl fight, it's like in the cobra code or somethin'!" Billy exclaimed, Charlie shook his head and sighed he walked forward, pushing past a couple of hoods who were standing there watching, he found himself standing face to face with Amelia & Rebecca, Rebecca clutching onto Amelia's hair and Amelia lunging her arms in front trying to get at her, Charlie walked up to them and grabbed a hold of Rebecca's shoulders, using all his strength, he managed to prise them apart.
Rebecca's body spun round and she saw it was Charlie, "What the hell are you doing, Charlie? Get off me." She snapped, glaring at the blonde haired boy.
"Just forget about her, she's not worth it," He shouted, the crowd still being rowdy.
"Well well well look what we have here, Rebecca's best friend trying to break this fight up," Amelia called out, she then smiled and said, "You really like to try and break things up, don't you, Charles?"
"What's she talking about?" Rebecca asked puzzled, glaring at the girl who had left a bite mark on her arm. Charlie opened his mouth to reply but was interrupted by Amelia who took a step forward towards the pair.
"Well you see your best friend hasn't been a very nice boy," Amelia went on, Rebecca turned to Charlie looking at home quizzically, "Would you believe me if I told you he was the reason you and Ace nearly broke up?"
"How does she know about that?" Rebecca asked breathing heavily, by now the crowd had quietened down and separated, some going home and some staying at the party, Billy, Vince and the rest of the cobras stood there watching at what was unfolding in front of them, Vince looked at Billy questionably and Billy just shrugged as if to say he didn't know what Amelia was talking about. Ace was nowhere in site and Rebecca didn't have the time to wonder where he was.
"You see me and Charlie, tried our very hardest to break you two up, but you wouldn't let that happen now, would you, Rebecca? Charlie was the reason why Ace decided he needed to have me. Isn't that right, Charles?"
It took Rebecca twenty seconds to realise what had been said and she didn't know how to react, was it true? She didn't have to say this out loud because the look she had seen from Charlie told her just what he was thinking, he looked down at his dirty old converse's and kicked the dirt on the ground, a defeated look on his face, and she knew what was said was true, she had to get out of here.
"Rebec-" Charlie mustered the courage to say but Rebecca pushed past him, walking off into the darkness, he then turned his attention to Amelia who had a smug look on her face.
"Sorry Charlie did I get you in trouble?" She laughed and watched Charlie run off and call after Rebecca.
"What a cock-knocker. Boy, he really messed up this time," Billy said to himself. "Ace is going to kill him when he hears about this, and Rebecca...well he really did screw up all his chances with her, didn't he?" Vince looked at him strangely, he wondered what the hell was going on but shrugged the drama off his shoulders and carried on drinking, he wasn't going to let this ruin his good time.
"Rebecca!" An out of breath Charlie called out to her. He had finally caught up to her, she could run real fast when she needed to.
"You son-of-a-" She yelled at him as she threw a punch towards his chest. "How could you try and do that to me?"
"Because Ace doesn't deserve you." Charlie replied, stopping her from hitting him. "I'm sorry. But you need to realise he isn't good for you."
"I can't believe you would lie to me like that," She glared up at him.
"I had to, you needed to see what an ass-hole he really is. Didn't take long for him to cheat on you, did it? He's bad, Rebecca."
And Charlie received his first ever slap from a girl. His right cheek turned bright pink.
"You're just as bad," She spat at him. "You're a liar and that makes you worse, Ace has never lied to me, but you?"
"I love ya, Rebecca. You got to know that." Charlie pleaded, he grabbed hold of her hand.
"Get off! You were supposed to be a friend, my friend! But now I've just found out that it's all been a lie." Rebecca looked at him, pulling her hand away. "And to think some part of me deep down, thought that maybe I could leave with you."
"You still can!"
"Drop dead, Charlie. I don't ever want to see your face again, you've ruined everything!"
