Strange Backlash

Disclaimer: I still own nothing but the plot. Though if you are willing to lend me Vaughn, I wouldn't complain :growl:

Plot: Lucas' feelings and actions directly following Strange Emotions which I'm SURE you all read (coughandreviewedcough). I have another story Strange Summers which really doesn't have anything to do with this, but a little pimping never hurt. (Stories, that is. Pimping stories never hurts)

Lucas gripped the edge of his seat, knuckles turning white. Blood blossomed over his chin, as he bit down on his lip, making a deep, half moon cut. "SHIT!" he swore

Corrine blanched. "Lucas! I don't think I have ever heard you cuss before.

Lucas slammed his hands into the table, turning a furious, blood-stained face to Corrine. "I've never seen Vaughn jam his tongue down Josie's throat before!" he growled. Marshall tossed a napkin at him, and he picked it up, angrily swiping the blood from his face.

Marshall cocked his head, studying the kissing couple. "Actually, I don't think there was any tongue….." He paused. "Never mind. There is now" He shrugged, an impish smile on his face. "Man, Josie's tongue is like…eight feet long! She should join KISS or something"

Corrine thwacked Marshall on the back of the head, ignoring his squawk of protest. "Not helping" she said between clenched teeth. She turned to Lucas, hand resting on top of his. "Lucas, I'm really sorry" she murmured.

Lucas snatched his hand away. "I don't want your sympathy." He snapped. "I want Josie! Or Vaughn to catch some rare, incurable Tree Monkey disease from South America……" He trailed off. "This isn't right. I don't trust Vaughn, and neither should she! Josie is making a giant mistake. "

Corrine shrugged. "But it's her mistake to make….besides" Corrine glanced over at Josie and Vaughn. "They look cute together…..not that you and Josie wouldn't." she quickly added, laughing nervously. "Look, Lucas. I don't really know what to say to you."

Lucas stood, brushing himself off. "Don't bother saying anything." He snapped. "I'm fine. I want to be alone" He stormed off towards his dorm, hoping no one noticed how he tripped in his anger.
