CHAPTER 21 the fight that changed lives

Marissa Brody looked around she had been here for over an hour and she had the only people seen were Taylor, and Luke although she had only talked to Luke. Marissa still had a hard time, trying to figure out why a lot of people had been invited Luke had left in year 10, as did Anna, and Marissa herself had been expelled after year 11 and her last year was at Union. I'll never know the workings of a principals mind she thought. She looked around the hall there was some guy she couldn't remember his name and then there were a whole heap of their old teachers sitting there pointing out different students, there was a little boy on the ground crying who was the spiting image of Seth, then. Marissa's head turned back to the little boy. As her own husband and children were over at the food table topping up on more food she walked over to him; " hey what's your name?" she asked bending down in front of him, "j-j-Joel C-C-Cohen" Joel said through sobs " I –I cant find my mummy or daddy" he said and he started to cry again " I bet you I know who your daddy is" said Marissa Joel looked up at her " really you know my daddy, what about my mummy? she went to this school too" asked Joel " more then likely is your mummies name Summer ?" asked Marissa Joel smiled " yeah and daddies name is Seth" he replied. " ok kool well why don't you come with me. I'm a friend of your mum and dads so when we see them you can go back to them ok." Said Marissa Joel grabbed her hand and they walked back to were Marissa's family was " hey guys this is Joel he's gonna hang with us for a while till his mum and dad show up ok " said Marissa reaching her family who were yet again scoffing down food. " what his mum and dad left him with you cause they don't want him?" asked Kane Marissa glared at her son " sorry" said Kane. " I walked off looking at something then when I looked around I could not see mummy daddy any more" said Joel very matter of factly.

As they were talking some one rushed past and bumped into Marissa as she turned around to yell at them she noticed that it was Ryan " Ryan Attwood why are you in such a rush where's the fire?" she asked smiling " oh just going to kill Luke, Seth and Summer are near the stage would like to stay and talk but I really have to go kill Luke will talk to you later ok" said Ryan rushing off towards Luke who he had just spotted. Cameron came up behind Marissa " what was that about?" he asked wrapping his arms around Marissa " no idea but he said Seth and Summer were near the stage so lets go see them" said Marissa. Before she could turn around she saw Ryan walk up to Luke and tap him, on the shoulder, as Luke turned around Ryan's fist came round and connected with Luke's face. As he fell to the floor people around Ryan started to back off. Luke sat on the floor rubbing his chin. " what was that for?" he asked getting up, " what was that for?… that was for sleeping with Natalie 15 years ago" said Ryan he punched Luke again " that was for letting Seth take the blame knowing full well you did it" Ryan punched him again " that was lying to me even after Natalie died" Ryan gave him one last punch that sent Luke stumbling back and falling over the box behind him " what the hell are you talking about? You know I love Heather and Michelle your one of my closest friends why the hell would I do that." yelled Luke " don't lie to me Luke I know you slept with My wife" yelled Ryan, how could he pretend not to know he had to. " Ryan why would I have slept with Natalie it was Seth remember" said Luke " Luke Seth just told me what happened it fits with what every one else has said why would you do that?" asked Ryan. Luke's face contorted he was thinking " Oh My God there was one night that… Oh no….I was so drunk but I did not look like it…Ryan I'm so sorry I didn't know what I was doing, I cant believe that I did that. I-I-I" Luke stuttered Ryan punched him again. As Luke got up Ryan ran up to him and tackled him down the two men tussled around on the floor not knowing that their children were watching.
