Dance For Me

Chapter 21 Part 1

"Camila please! I just want to be here for you.. you're getting worked up! She's just going to come down and help.."

"I don't need her fucking help! Or yours! Are you fucking serious right now?"

With every passing word from my lips I began to fall more and more out of breath.. I wanted to be alone, in my room under the covers but I wasn't! I was here exposed in front of everyone now staring while Emma's sweet face guiltily stared on at me in regret.. I paced away storming past her shoulder hoping to leave the room but before I could grab for the handle the raven woman herself slammed through to grab my wrist

"Where are you going!"

"Outside! Fucking get off of me! Now!"

"No! Camila! You need to take a breath and stop! What the hell is going on?"

I didn't want to calm down or stop! I wanted to leave! The temper in my veins not soothing even for a second as I snatched back my hand only to feel her step forwards with palms now over my upper arms walking me back into a wall I could have sworn to have burnt my skin

"Calm! Down! What is wrong? Did someone say something? Routines too difficult?"

"Get! Off of me! I swear to god Lauren!"

"Let her go.."

Another voice joined.. it was Fallon.. standing in the doorway having obviously followed for backup as her folded arms and relaxed face offered that same uninterested gaze.. I flit my eyes towards her trying to take a deep breath but Lauren only seemed to push harder.. binding me tighter

"Are you serious? Look at her Fallon? She is three seconds from exploding and you want me to let her go?"

Lauren retaliated looking back at me with a look I could only describe as disgust.. it hurt

"Don't talk about her like she's not here Lauren! Let her go! She is not an animal!"

Fallon defended before the grip around my arms reluctantly shift.. my body now loose running blankly from behind the tall frame.. I bolted into the hall searching for the near by elevators pressing firmly into the buttons in hopes the doors would open quicker.. within minutes I was in the lobby slamming through the front doors to only stand panting outside of the large building I now called home.. I didn't feel like home..

"Sewer puppy! Walk with me.."

A firm tone flew from behind me as I glanced around to see Fallon already halfway down the long stairs.. she didn't wait for me.. but for some reason I followed.. aimlessly catching up to meet her strong perfumed side.. the hot Miami sun beating down on me like a threat of obedience

"Tantrums only look good on toddlers rat? What's with the panty twist?"

"Fuck you!"

I growled back, she was too blunt.. didn't care and never homed to call me out.. yet somehow I still walked beside her.. listened to her, gave her the time of day?

"I'd rather you didn't! She was only trying to help.. you know that right?"

"I don't give a shit! I don't need her help!"

"So you can deal with this whole anger thing on your own? Random, oblivious anger you have no idea where to have come from.. easy?"

She challenged forcing me to roll my eyes as I stopped in the street to swallow a heavy pill of rage.. it paralysed me sometimes.. left me standing like an idiot as she turned to face me with a cocked bored looking brow

"Is it random? This whole.. thing? Because if it is I'm pretty sure that warrants some kind of mental assessment.. padded cell you know.."

"Why are you so fucking mean all the time?"
