Maybe Someday

Chapter 32

Jake's POV:

Luke invited all of the football players to his birthday party tonight and Liv, well, she invited the rest of the school. So of course all of my friends and I are going to go. They all decided to meet first at Liam's house and then head on to the party from then, but I didn't go. I knew that if I went they would make me drink at least a shot and I swore to myself that I wasn't going to drink anymore, not after what happened last time I drank. I lost Emily and now I was on the road of getting her back, I'm not going to risk it just for fitting in with my friends. I arrived at the party at around 10:30, I ran a bit late because it was my turn to do the dishes today at home. Yeah, it sucks. But I found parking right around the corner from Luke's house. I brought my car as well this time, I felt so helpless last time that I didn't have my car because I couldn't go rushing after Emily. So from now on, I was always going to bring my car to parties. See how much I love Emily? All of this I'm doing for her.

I walked through the door and found my friends right there, a few steps from the door. I went over to say hello to them and we started talking about football, same as always. Suddenly we heard a commotion in the back, we decided to get closer to see what was going on. That's when I recognized her voice. I couldn't even see straight from the rage, but I recognized Tyler the second I saw him. What was this fucker doing here? Without even thinking I went over there to help Emily. The fucking bastard was holding her arm so tightly that her hand was starting to look red, even a little purple. Yeah, that's how hard he was holding her, it only made me madder.

"Shut the fuck up, all of you." Tyler screamed at Emily, her friends and Luke. I just couldn't take it any more, I had to intervene. .

"Do you want me to punch you again? Was last time not enough?" I screamed at him from behind Emily. "Let her arm go." I demanded, but Tyler wouldn't let go. I quickly went to step between him and Emily and didn't even hesitate, I threw a punch straight to his jawline. With that he kind of lost his balance and he let go of Emily's arm. I was so furious that I kept on throwing punches at him. He had tried to hurt her again, and even if we weren't together I still loved her. I wasn't going to let anyone and specially this bastard hurt her and get away with it. I didn't even realize that Tyler had started throwing punches back, that's how worked up I was. I threw myself over him and we both fell to the floor. I was on top of him and I just kept on punching him, over and over again. I was starting to see red from how angry I was, or maybe it was just his blood. I honestly don't even know.

Suddenly I felt a bunch of arms trying to hold me back, I just wanted to keep punching that bastard's face. But there were too many arms holding me back, they managed to stand me up. Four of my friends were holding me back and four guys were holding Tyler. He looked pretty beat up and I was glad, his nose was bleeding and so was his lip. One of his eyes was starting to become swollen from my punches and his jaw as well. He had thrown a lot of punches at me, but he only managed to connect two and they weren't even as strong, my ribs did hurt a little, but I was perfectly fine compared to him. Still, it wasn't enough for me. I wanted to kill the guy, if it weren't for my friends literally holding me away from him I would have punched him until he died. He was a fucking pariah, no one would care if he died. I would be making the world a favor.

I finally calmed down, after about 2 minutes.

"Let me go." I told the guys.

"No, you'll just go after him again." Liam answered.

"I won't, I want to see if Emily's okay?"

"Really?" Jacob asked.

"Yes, just let me go." I demanded. As soon as they did I rushed over to Emily.

"Baby are you okay? Did he hurt you? Did he do something to you?" I asked her, not even realizing that I had called her baby until it was to late. I hoped she didn't notice it, or that at least she didn't say anything about it.
