Chapter Fifteen:

He heard her crying somewhere near. As crazy as it sounded, Jeff already knew the sound of Coral's cries. The way she sniffled every few seconds, hiccups ever-so present, yet, he couldn't find her. He looked all over, as the cries got louder and softer, but couldn't find her. Finally, he gave up, thinking maybe it wasn't Coral.

-

Twenty minutes later, Mike went off in search of Coral. He wasn't sure if she'd rat him out to Jeff. If she happened to, he knew he was in deep shit. Jeff was a wrestler and even if he thought Jeff was just a freak, Mike also knew Jeff could kick his ass… in ten different moves.

"Coral," he sighed happily, finding her scrunched up behind the Haunted House. "Coral," he tried again as she cried, ignoring him. "Coral, listen to me. Damn it!"

"Go to hell," she cried, shoving at him.

"Coral," he pleaded. "We can't go back to Jeff like this. Don't you think he's going to know if we're not talking? He'll get in trouble if you rat me out, too. We need to act as if everything is normal." Not that I give a damn about what happens to Jeff, I love Coral, Mike thought.

She peered up, green eyes quick to hypnotize Mike. "Fine," she said coldly, grabbing him by his pale arm. She proceeded to wipe her eyes on her other arm, shaking her head so her hair disclosed her eyes. As they walked to where Coral saw Jeff, she put on a false smile, pretending to laugh. "Oh Mike," she said happily.

Jeff, who had been so sure about her crying, was pleasantly surprised to see the duo happy and laughing. "There y'all are," he mumbled, "It's time to go back to the clinic. I don't need those assholes harassing me."

Coral nodded. "Fine."

Fine? Jeff thought. Why is she agreeing? She told me how much she loved Mike… "Okay," Jeff said. "Sorry man."

Mike shrugged. "Whatever."

The trio walked together to the parking lot, both Coral and Mike quiet. Jeff knew something was wrong and couldn't help but wonder if Shannon was right. Had something happened? Should he have trusted them enough to go it alone? What if – cut the what if. Jeff had to trust them.

He unlocked his car and pulled out a cigarette as Mike and Coral climbed in. He showed them it and motioned for a few minutes. Inside the car, Coral found this time to be good to discuss what she was going to do. "I'm not talking to you ever again once we get back to—"

"Coral, please—"

"I'm not giving you a damn chance to explain," she snapped, shoving his body off her. "I don't care what Pedro was there for. Actually, I don't even really want to remember him. He's a filthy cockroach who bottom feeds off losers like you."

"Coral—"

"Infact," Coral snapped, ignoring him as Jeff came up beside her door. "Why don't you just get a taste of how bad it hurts to see the one you love get trashed?" she asked.

"What are you talking about?" Mike demanded.

She ignored his question, but opened the door to her side. She stepped out, looking at Mike with intense eyes as she grabbed Jeff by the cuff of his shirt collar, pulling him close to her. Then, as he looked mighty confused, she pressed her lips to his, forcing him to kiss her back. Revenge was sweet as Mike's face fell to agony. She knew Mike loved her, even if his love for drugs was more. She knew that he didn't like Jeff and when you add the two together, she knew she had made a deadly combination. As Jeff pushed her off him, she sat back in her seat, giving Mike one more heavy glare.

Jeff mouthed, "Later" at her, with a stern eye. He wasn't about to start asking questions then.

She smiled sweetly. "Sure."

And as Jeff slipped his seatbelt on, she whispered in Mike's ear, "How did that feel?"

Little did she know, Mike had already done something that would change it all.

-

A half hour later, they were all seated outside of the clinic. Mike wouldn't look anyone in the eye as he got out of the car and walked forward. Coral and Jeff followed, both quiet. Jeff had no idea why Coral kissed him, nor was he sure he wanted to know, but he knew the questions had to wait.

She, on the other hand, was getting pretty mad. Mike wasn't raging, like she would have hoped. He seemed almost at peace. Of course, she also couldn't help but think how soft Jeff's lips were and how the slight taste of cigarettes turned her on.

"Did you have a good day?" Ben, the security guard asked as Mike and the other two came inside. Mike nodded glumly and waved at Jen, who was glaring at Jeff and Coral. He then started to walk toward his room, not looking back.

Jeff knew something was up. "Is that all?" he asked Jen. "Do I need to sign anything or—"

"Just leave your number, just in case."

"I gave it to the doctor."

"Oh, okay, then fine, go," she replied, waving her hand. She added quietly, "Don't come back."

Outside, Jeff was quick to stop Coral. She had other plans though, seeing Mike watching out the window. The sister of Shannon's smiled slyly, pushing Jeff against the wall and kissing him fiercely. Mike watched, his eyes widening as Jeff happened to kiss her back. Then, with one angered motion, he slammed his blind shut and fell onto his bed.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Jeff yelled, shoving Coral off him.

"Revenge," she mumbled quietly.

"Revenge?" Jeff asked, following after her. Coral was already ten feet ahead, jogging toward Jeff's car. Jeff was utterly confused by her actions, more so worried that he had just unwilling cheated on Beth.

"I don't want to talk about it," Coral yelled back, starting to run then. She was sobbing at that point, unsure herself why she had done that to Mike. As much as she hated him for what he had done to her that day, she still loved him so much more. Seeing that it got no response in her eyes was killing her.

"We're talking about it," Jeff said as he caught up, grabbing her arm. "Once, okay, whatever. You just kissed me twice. What does this have to do with Mike?"

"Nothing."

"Don't lie to me, Coral. Damn it, don't lie to me!"

Coral avoided his gaze, tears flying down her face. "I don't want to talk about it," she growled.

Jeff sighed, shaking his head. "Get in the car." With that, they got in and drove for the hotel.
