I felt a hand collide with the back of my head. I span around and my face met Lisa's fist. I swear we had a beautiful relationship. I chuckled slightly and pulled out the switch blade.

"I know more about you than you wish I did," she told me. How could she know more than I am a waitress and I have a boyfriend?

"Really? All you know is that I am a waitress and I have a boyfriend," I told her calmly.

"That's not all I know. If you hurt me, I could have the fuzz on your ass so fast you wouldn't have time to blink." I laughed a little. She just wanted to scare me.

"I wouldn't laugh, Miss Jessica Tracens-Randle," she said coolly.

"What do you know about me?" I asked her. She stared at me for a while.

"You live your father and your half-brother. You were caught trying to shop-lift a switchblade, a convertible was found in your possession, even though it wasn't yours and you hear voices. You confessed to being a kleptomaniac," she replied. How did she know that? Only a stalker would know that, only a stalker and my family. I stared at her, maybe she would tell me.

"My step-dad works at the station. I hate my step-dad, but it's worth it, sometimes. Like I said I could have the fuzz on your ass so fast. So, you can put away that switchblade, if you want to stay out of jail." I wanted to hit her, but I wasn't going to get in any trouble. I turned away and went to wait on another table.

I couldn't wait until tomorrow night. I was going to hang out with these three girls I met yesterday when I was waiting tables. I guess I could consider them my friends. Two looked like twins, they had red hair. Their names were Michelle and Anna. The other had blonde hair, I think her name was Sara, but she didn't stick out to me much. I told the manager I didn't feel to well and I headed over to DX, I needed to relax a little bit.

"Shot, Jess, you can't seem to stay out of trouble," Steve greeted me. I looked at him.

"You have no idea," I told him and went to go sit in the chair. I don't really like to cry, and I shouldn't cry over something like Lisa but I couldn't help it. I pulled my legs close to my body and rested my head on my knees. I wasn't making noise; the tears silently fell down my cheeks.

"What the hell happened to you?" He said quite loudly. I ignored him and sniffled.

"Steve, what are you yelling about this time?" I don't know if he just saw me or if Steve pointed to me.

"Oh," he said softly. I kept my head down; I didn't want them to see me crying.

"What happened?" he asked me, and I felt him put an arm around me. He pulled me closer to him.

"C'mon, tell me what happened." I looked up and saw a little mark on his noise. I almost laughed softly because I made that mark when I bit his noise in the hospital after I made a "scene" at DX. I wiped my eyes.

"I can't work anymore, I won't," I said. He stared at me and the look in his eyes said "why?"

"That waitress, her dad works with the fuzz, and she knows too much about me," I said. I wasn't going to say I pulled Steve's switchblade on her. They'd be mad. I calmed down a little bit and I was just talking to Soda outside. When it was near 3, I hoped Lisa wouldn't show up. I knew I'd be wrong, because what you don't want, you get.

Soda saw her first. My eyes were fixed on her as she walked over to us.

"If you don't have a car, I suggest you go," he said.

"She doesn't have a car, the convertible she stole was taken away," she responded coolly.

"I'm here with my brother," I said, finding my voice.

"Yeah," she said, "are you sure not here with your two-timing boyfriend?"

"I said he would never do that!" I yelled and jumped at her. I didn't care if I was put in jail or whatever. She crossed the line. Soda pulled me off of her after a bit. I had hurt her pretty bad. I was breathing heavily and trying to get out of Soda's grip. I still wanted to hurt her. She got up and walked away.

"What was that about?"

"She said some pretty mean things about you and about me today," I said and looked at the ground. He hugged me and I heard her yell something.

"My step-dad's gonna find out about this, and you'll be sorry!"

"Fuck you!" I yelled back and stared at her until I couldn't see her anymore.
