Chapter 2
Pulling into my driveway, I see my boyfriend Max is here. Walking in the door, I say "Max? You here babe?" I hear rustling in the bedroom and start walking that way. "Shit." I hear him say and as soon as I walk to the door, he's trying to get his clothes back on and so is the girl he's with. "Are you fucking shitting me?" I ask pissed. "Babe, listen.." he starts. "Don't babe me. You're in my fucking bed with a bitch that ain't me. Get your shit and get out." I tell him. She tries to go by me and I grab her arm. "I see you near my house again I'll slit your fucking throat." I tell her before she pulls away and runs out the door.
I look at Max and he's putting on his shoes. He looks at me and starts to say something and I pull the gun out of my bag that Bishop makes me carry and aim it at him. "You have five minutes to get your shit and get out of my house before I start putting holes in your ass." I tell him and he starts grabbing his bags from the closet and starts tossing his shit in. Once he's packed, he heads towards the door and I say "I don't want to see you again." He looks at me and says "This is why I cheated. You're a crazy raging bitch all the fucking time. Maybe if you weren't such a fucking bitch I'd still want your ass." he tells me and I raise my gun again. He rushes to his car and squeals out of the driveway.
I walk to the bedroom and put the gun back in my bag. I start stripping the bed and take the covers out to the backyard to the burn pit that Coco helped me build and set it on fire. Once it's done burning, I put the fire out and head inside. Sitting down at the table, I think about what he said and I refuse to cry. I get up and shower, knowing I can go to the clubhouse and get drunk again. Seems there's always a party.
Pulling up to the clubhouse that evening, I walk up and see Coco sitting on one of the tables and I walk over and sit next to him. Laying my head on his shoulder, he looks at me concerned. "You okay mana?" I nod and say "Yeah. Think I can score a dorm?" I ask. "You plan on getting drunk again?" he asks. "Yeah, but I'll be good." I tell him. He looks at me again and asks "You sure you're okay?" I just nod and kiss his cheek. "Love you Johnny." I say. "Love you mana." he tells me as I walk inside.
Inside the clubhouse, I see people milling about, drinking and having run. I walk to the bar where Creeper is. I put my hand on his shoulder and he wraps his arm around my waist and kisses my temple. "Can I get a couple of shots and a beer please?" I ask the bartender and she nods before getting my order. "You okay?" Creeper asks. "Yeah. Just a long day." I say as he lets go. I take both shots, one right after the other before taking my beer and saying "I'll see you in a little bit." and he nods.
I walk over to the table where Bishop and Hank are and take a seat. "What's up little one?" Hank asks. "I'm claiming a dorm tonight." I tell them and they look at each other before looking at me. I roll my eyes and say "I'll be good." They nod and I look at Bishop and ask "How big is the pool on me and asshole?" I ask. "It's up to about three grand." he tells me. "Shit." I say laughing. "You not gonna make us cash that in tonight are you?" Hank asks. "Nah. I ain't getting dirty for less than five." I tell them and they laugh.
After sitting with them for a while, I keep hearing what Max said in the back of my head. Maybe if I weren't such a raging bitch. Maybe he's right. I stand and both men look at me. "You good little one?" Bishop asks. "Yeah. Just need another drink. Think I might see where Coco is." I tell them. I walk to the bar, and ask the bartender for the rest of the bottle of Jack. There's about half a bottle left.
Walking outside, I look around and don't see Coco. I see one of the bonfires and there's no one really sitting around it so I walk over and claim a seat. Sitting there, staring at the fire, taking swigs of the bottle in my hand, I keep thinking about what Max said and walking in to him with another woman in my bed. The bed we've shared for the last two years. Was I that bad? I just keep staring at the fire and the more I drink, the harder it is to fight off the tears.
Feeling the tears coming, I stand up and try to make my way out of the gate so that no one sees. I get just outside and the tears start to fall and I drop to my knees sobbing. I stiffen when I feel a hand on my back. I quickly wipe my eyes and try to get myself together before looking up and seeing Angel standing there looking concerned. "What happened?" he asks and I try to walk away but he grabs my wrist and stops me. "Let go." I rasp out weakly. "Not until you tell me why you're crying." he tells me. "Not your problem Angel." I say and try to walk away again and he pulls me back and pins me to the wall behind us. "Angel, let me go." I say and try to move but he won't let me. "Why are you crying?" he asks again. "Don't act like you give a shit. Just let me go." I tell him and he grabs my chin and makes me look at him. "Yeah, I'm an asshole but I'm not heartless." he tells me and I shake my head and the tears start falling again.
I feel Angel pull me into his arms and just holds me. "Hey, it's okay. I got you." he tells me and I feel my knees buckle, I'm sobbing so hard. He picks me up and carries me to EZ's trailer and closes the door behind us. Sitting me down on the bed, he kneels in front of me and says "Look at me." I look at him and he wipes my tears and asks "Why are you crying?" I look down at my hands in my lap and say "I got home this morning and found Max in my bed with another woman." I tell him. "Fuck bebita. What's his fucking problem?" he says more to himself than to me. "Said if I wasn't such a crazy raging bitch he would have wanted me and not cheated." I tell him and the tears start falling again. He starts taking off my shoes and I ask "What are you doing?" He looks up at me and says "Me and you are crashing in here tonight." he tells me and I shake my head. "I have a dorm set up" and start to get up. Pushing me back onto the bed he says "EZ can crash in mine. We're crashing here." he tells me and I just nod, remembering what Max said. After my shoes are off, Angel sits beside me and takes his off and texting EZ telling him he's crashing in the trailer and that EZ can have his dorm.
Angel puts his phone on the table and moves farther up onto the bed. "Come here." he tells me and I move up the bed with him. He lays on his back and holds his arm out for me. I move over next to him and he pulls me to lay against his chest. He wraps his arm around me and pulls me close. My face his nuzzled into his neck and I feel the tears fall again and he just holds me close and lets me cry.
