can't be serious right now? We came
here for Trent's damn birthday and I will not let Gage's bipolar
mood swings ruin it. Gage, either suck it the fuck up, put your big
boy boxers on and celebrate one of your best friends birthdays, or
go the hell away."
Everyone who
had been eyeing Gage and Larkin turned their eyes to me. Tyler's
eyes darted between Gage and I then Larkin and Gage before he
stepped back and said, "I say fuck it, let ‘em go at it. This has
been building up for weeks. Maybe if they beat the shit outta each
other they will move on and stop this pissing contest."
What the hell
was Tyler talking about? This has been going on for weeks, what has
been going on for weeks? Damn these men! I glared at Gage then
Larkin. "School just started and I really don't have the time to
sit and stroke ya'll's damn ego's to make sure everyone is happy.
What about me, what about making me happy!"
Gage huffed,
"Seems like you have plenty of time to stroke his ego, babe.
Remember we live in the same damn apartment."
Before Gage's
mouth was closed Larkin was leaping towards him. Jinx and Trent
grabbed Larkin by his arms, pulling him back. Lashing around Larkin
shook the two guys off and shot daggers at Gage with his dark eyes.
"When the fuck you going to get it, Jenna is mine. You had her your
whole damn life but she picked me. I win so back the fuck
off."
I jerked back
like someone had slapped me. "Shut the hell up, both of you. First
off, Gage," I ranted, "What I do is my own damn business. If it
bothers you that damn much go find some girl and fuck her. You knew
exactly what you were getting when you asked me to live with you,
you knew the kinda girl I am."
I stopped to
take a breath and Gage broke in, "A slut? I never knew you were a
slut. If I knew that I sure as fuck wouldn't have asked you to move
in with me."
My cheeks
heated as anger tore through me. Reaching my hand back I slapped
Gage across his face and screamed, "Fuck you Gage Tucker! I don't
need your God damn approval to have sex with my boyfriend. Yes, my
mother fucking boyfriend. If that makes me a slut then so be it.
You have no right to call me names, look at your track record. You
out number me any day. Just because you have a penis doesn't make
it ok for you to parade around screwing anything that opens its
legs."
Gage was
holding his cheek, and I swear I saw tears in his eyes. "Fine, you
want me out of your life, Jenna. You got it." Gage didn't wait for
a response. He just turned and stalked back to his
truck.
Everyone was
silently watching Gage as he started the engine and drove away.
Gage actually left me, he had never left me. For the first time
ever the one person I could always count on, the one person I knew
would always be there...wasn't. And it hurt.
Fighting my
tears back, I swallowed hard and turned to face Larkin. "And for
you, I am not yours, I am nobody’s. I'm not some damn trophy you
win and place on your shelf. You didn't win shit. Both you and Gage
mean a lot to me but if this is what it’s going to come down to,
picking you or him...well fuck you both. I pick myself. I have
worked too damn hard to get to where I’m at just to let you or Gage
ruin it. I have been through enough and I sure as hell ain’t going
through it again."
Larkin lowered
his head and grabbed my hands. "I don't want you to have to choose
between Gage and me, because I know I wouldn't win. Jenna, having a
girlfriend is so fucking new to me and I'm afraid I'm going to fuck
everything up and lose you."
I shook my
head and looked at our hands. "Too late Larkin, I think you just
did." I dropped his hands and looked one last time into his dark
eyes before turning and getting back into my car. I didn't look at
anyone as I backed out and sped away.
So much for
Trent having a happy birthday.
I wasn't sure
where to go. I was afraid if I went home Gage would be there. If I
went to Sadie's everyone else would be there. Pulling into a
parking lot, I shut my car off and
here for Trent's damn birthday and I will not let Gage's bipolar
mood swings ruin it. Gage, either suck it the fuck up, put your big
boy boxers on and celebrate one of your best friends birthdays, or
go the hell away."
