Chapter Thirteen: Claw's Departure, Charm's Return
Squid stared at Brianna in shock. He was shocked she'd yell at him like that. He glanced at Brianna, who was now sitting down on the couch. She was rubbing her head again. He sat down next to her. "Bri?" he asked.
"What?!" she snapped.
"Never mind."
Brianna stood up and walked out the door without so much as a good bye to Zig or Squid, which seemed very much unlike her. She slammed the door behind her and walked toward Shaily's house. Squid felt guilty for yelling at her like that.
"Now ya done it," snickered Zig Zag. Squid glared at him and went up to his room and slammed the door. Zig Zag was left in the room. "Doesn't anyone say good bye anymore?" he muttered before leaving the house.
***
Brianna walked right past Shaily's house. She was going to go into town to think. Maybe she shouldn't've since Matt was on the loose. But Brianna was thick headed sometimes so she really didn't care. She wondered if he would find her. "Stupid Matt," she muttered.
"You wouldn't be talking about me now would you," said someone coming up behind her. He placed his arm around her waist.
"Lemme go," she growled.
"Charm," Matt whispered. "Honey… Why'd you leave me?"
"I left because I love another, Mutt!" Brianna grumbled using his nickname she had given him. His eyes narrowed.
"Who?"
"I won't tell you!"
***
"Stupid stupid stupid!" shouted Squid in his room, knocking stuff over. "How could I do that to her?! Me and my big mouth." He stopped. "Wait a minute, she left and Matt's out there… Oh no!" Squid said realzing the danger she could get into. He ran out of his room forgetting their fight to find her. He ran out the door to find her.
***
"LET ME GO DAMMIT!" cursed Brianna as she tried to fight her way out of Matt's grip.
"Oh c'mon," Matt said grinning. He nuzzled her gently and pulled her against him. His grip around her waist became tighter. She went red. "Y'know ya missed me."
"NO! DON'T TOUCH ME! LET ME GO!"
"Let her go," shouted Squid.
"Who's this moron?" asked Matt. Brianna kicked Matt and finally squirmed out of his grip. She faltered but eventually got to her feet. She ran to Squid and hugged him tightly.
"I'm sorry Alan," Brianna whispered.
"Hush. We'll talk about that later," Squid whispered back to her. He kissed her quickly on the cheek and then glared at Matt. He stared at Squid with jealousy burning in his eyes. "So you're Matt?" asked Squid.
"Oh so you've heard of me?" mocked Matt.
"Don't you EVER touch Brianna again!"
"She belongs to me," hissed Matt. Brianna blinked remembering something. She felt her right shoulder. She backed away from the two. She pulled down the collar of her tank top and saw a scratch mark on it. Matt had done that to prove to everyone she was HIS property. But Squid… He was the guy she really loved.
"Prove it!" shouted Squid.
"Charm get over her!" commanded Matt. She obeyed and stood next to Matt. "Where's that scratch mark?" he said as he looked for the mark. He found it and exposed it to Squid. "She belongs to me!"
"A damn mark doesn't prove anything!" protested Squid. Brianna admired him. She started to walk toward Squid but was stopped by Matt.
"Mutt let me go!" shouted Brianna.
"No! You belong to me," Matt growled in a low tone. Squid approached Brianna and grabbed her arm.
"You don't belong to anyone, Bri. Listen, you said it yerself," whispered Squid to her.
"What?" she asked.
"He doesn't control you anymore, remember?" Squid said to her. Brianna blinked and started to grin. She pushed Matt away and ran to Squid.
"What're you doing?" shouted Matt in outrage. Brianna turned to him and rolled her eyes. Matt didn't understand why Brianna would betray him like this. Why would she do this to him?
"I don't belong to anyone!" Brianna exclaimed. Matt stared at her.
"BRIANNA YOU BELONG TO ME! GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE!"
"No."
"What?"
"NO! YOU HEARD ME! NO! YOU RAPIST!"
Squid glanced down at Brianna. "What?" he asked her. Brianna glanced up at Squid and smiled weakly.
"He raped Sherri," she whispered. "That's the reason I was over at Shaily's the other day because she got scared he would rape me." Squid blinked in shock. Who did this guy think he was? Another Mad Dog?
"Damn right I raped her. She was the bitch left after you left me Bri…" hissed Matt. Brianna blinked. Sherri was right. Matt did want to rape her. Squid pushed Brianna behind him realizing what Matt meant. Matt came closer trying to get Brianna back. Squid pushed her further back.
"Don't you touch her!" Squid shout.
"Who's going to stop me?" Matt laughed. His laugh sent a cold shiver down Brianna's spine.
"We will!" chorused the Strips and Sherri.
"GIRLS!" cried out Brianna happily. Her friends all nodded. Brianna turned and smirked at Matt. "Now you've got all of us to worry about Matthew!" Brianna said feeling courage return to her. She was always a better fighter when she had her friends behind her. She turned to the girls and they nodded. They all pulled out switchblades and were ready to fight. "Wait!" Brianna exclaimed.
"What?" asked Susan.
"Where's Kayla?"
"We'll tell you later."
"Ok." Brianna said feeling confused. She shook it off and then turned to Matt. The girls surrounded him holding their switchblades. He looked defeated.
"Dammit!" he sweared. He ran off.
"AND YOU BETTER NOT COME BACK YOU BASTARD!" shouted Shaily looking defiant. Everyone stared at her as if she was an idiot, which she is but oh well. Squid rolled his eyes and was about to say something smart mouthed, but Brianna held her hand to his mouth.
"Don't ruin it for her," Brianna laughed. Squid sighed and then they began to walk back to Squid's house. Brianna grinned and turned to Susan. "Ok! Now tell me where's Kayla?" Brianna asked.
"She left. She got tired of us helping you out and she said we were turning into goodie goodies. Kayla went back to New Orleans to start her own gang. Caveman decided to go with her. I knew she'd betray us!" Susan muttered.
"Susan… Watch it! You and Kayla are my best friends. You keep you trap shut when you talk about her." Commanded Brianna.
"So Charm we were wonderin' if you would, uh, come back." Shaily said sheepishly. Brianna licked her lips and pondered the question for a little while. "Oh yeah! Sherri joined so she can be Claw now!"
"No," Brianna said simply. "She has to EARN her nickname. Remember Shaily?"
"Does that mean?"
"Hell yeah! Charm is back!" Brianna chimmed.
"AW YEAH CHARM'S BACK!" squealed the girls.
"When do I get a nickname?" asked Sherri.
"Hm," Brianna said pondering the question. "After a while I'll let you get a nickname and we'll make sure you get branded so you can't go blab our secrets. Sorry Alan you can't get in on this little secret. As for Kayla… She's lucky she ran. She had to die in order to get out she choose the easier way. Run."
"She'll regret leaving won't she?" asked Michelle.
"Hell yeah!" Susan laughed. Squid rolled his eyes.
"Hey hon, what's wrong?" asked Brianna looking at Squid. "You haven't said any smart mout comment this whole walk!" He looked down at her.
"That mark on you… I was wonderin' what did Matt exactly do to give you that?" Squid asked. Brianna could feel the jealousy in his voice. She rolled her eyes.
"Alan," Brianna pleaded. "Please don't start this now!"
"Oh yeah we're going to start this now!" shouted Squid, stopping on the sidewalk along with Brianna. The girls all got nervous looks on their faces.
"Give us a minute," Brianna said to the girls. They nodded and went on ahead. "Please Alan! I really don't wanna go into this!"
"We're going into this subject wether you like it or not!" growled Squid.
"Fine! Matt scratched me to show he owned me! OK! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?!" shouted Brianna in outrage.
"WHY DID YOU LET HIM DO THAT!?"
"THERE WASN'T MUCH I COULD DO DAMMIT!"
"BRIANNA YOU DON'T BELONG TO HIM!"
"I KNOW THAT DAMMIT!"
"YOU BELONG TO ME!"
SLAP!
"I don't belong to anyone!!" shouted Brianna. "I'm not anyone's play toy SQUID!" She walked off leaving him in her wake.
