Battle Scars

Ch 26

I walked over to the water fountain. I can't believe Harry did that. At least he has some fire in him, that will serve him well. Jack was right, I was toying with him. That first move Jack made I could have taken him down but I toyed with him. It was more of  a fun fight for me. I got to see how he moves and find his weakness. Which I did.

Someone approaches me. "Hey Alex" I turned. "Hey Louis whats up?" I throw my cup away. "Umm are we still going to dinner tonight? I mean we don't have to-"

"Yes Louis I would love to. Why don't we, when we get back to the house, we'll get ready and go out ya?" He just nodded and walked away. I saw Jack was angrily talking to Harry. Probably because of what he did when I was exiting. I walked over to them.

"You just can-"

"Jack that's enough" I stand next to him with my arms crossed. Jack rolled his eyes and crossed his arms. I turn my attention to Harry, "You did pretty well. Maybe work on your left handed punch and your get ups after you fall. That should help with saving time and getting back into the fight quicker. It should help you get into a better stance before you punch or take a punch"

He nods and walks off towards the water fountain. "Are you mad Alex?! He could have really hurt you when he jumped on your back! You're not the te bit mad!" Jack whisper yells at me.

"Its fine Jack. I'm glad he did it. I now know that even when he gets defeated he still goes on. That is what we need Jack. How many times did I tell Max to always look at the good points not the bad?"

He stayed silent. "Do you think Max is coming?"

"Honestly I don't know. But with those mini attacks on us who knows. He will, yes, eventually come for us. We can't ignore him forever. He will come." I watch as two people got into the ring and started fighting.

"Why don't you just leave? Get rid of the information once and for all or just take it with you and just leave? Go to like Maine or California or somthin." I give a small laugh at this.

"Jack I have lived here my whole life. I never left this city my whole life and you expect me to leave to a completely new area where no one knows me and I know no one and live there?"

"Come on Al that's what normal people do!"

"If you haven't noticed Jack I'm not normal. I'm not running from my problems anymore. Getting rid of the information will just piss Max off even more." I skuff my feet on the ground. "Come on Jack lets get the others and go. The future looks bloody for us my friend" I smirk and walk off hearing Jack hoot in excitement.

"ALEX ARE YOU READY TO GO?"

"HOLD ON LOUIS I'M ALMOST READY!" God boys can be so impatient sometimes. I quickly put my hair up into a high ponytail. I look at myself in the mirror one last time.

I wore dark blue skinny jeans with a white low to high tank top with my leather jacket. Emily tried to get me to where this short sleeve floral crop top but I denied. I slip on some black pumas and walk out of my room.

I walk down the stairs to see Louis at the front door. He was wearing black jeans with a white tee-shirt. To top it off he had a black long sleeve jean jacket on. He look good.

He smiled and looked down to the ground when I came down the stairs. I rolled my eyes at him. "Ready?" he playfully asked. "Yup" He opened the door for me. "LIAM!" Louis yelled into the house.

"WHAT!" He sounds pissed. Opps sorry Liam. "ALEX AND I ARE GOING OUT FOR DINNER BE BACK LATER!" Liam appeared at the top of the stairs.

"Ok but don't keep her out too late. I want her back before 9 pm got it?" I laughed and rolled my eyes, oh Liam.
