Puck, The Fine Lines |The Rockwell series#3

Chapter Eighteen part-one

Interject Jessasym with raised eyebrows "Wait what? Why did you want me to call Mason?" asked Jessasym, a tad bit confused.

Everyone had a safeplace or haven right? But my safeplace was always to be in his arms no matter what hurricane came thrashing through our lives. Whenever I was lost or hurt I would call him.

And then it all happened very fast as my fist when flying toward as it landed i planted a punched on the rando boy face who had green eyes and light brown hair and then pinched his temple that caused him to be knocked out completely whilst my friends shoved including defend themselves from the rando boys friends just then i immediately saw Mase running to my aids to come rescue us with the whole hockey team Asher, Wyatt, Holden, Fletcher and Grayson. As he reached me then he pulled me into a massive bear hug next he kept checking to see if there were any bruises or marks that might be left on me from the fight. "What happened? Are you hurt because I swear to the almighty myself that I would get revenge on whoever has hurt you."

"No.. I'm doing just fine but the other person isn't."I admitted sheepishly to him.

A look of bewilderment painted on his face until I shifted my gaze onto my hot red swollen knuckle waiting for him to understand what I was implying silently to him through the glances of my eyes when one of my friends come to us. I think it was Natalia who said this "she defended herself out by knocking that creep down with one punch. You should be proud of her Mason just how I'm proud of her for teaching them a lesson because she is a prime example of strong and independent womanhood out there."He carefully took his hand in mine as he closely examined it, placing a kiss on it as we both stood up on our two feet.

he leaned close to my ears as he whispered softly while gently brushing my hair behind my ears "That's my girl! I'm very proud of you for punching the fork out of him."

All of our friends had a look of bafflement in their eyes. It must have been when they only just noticed us being in close proximity as they watched him give me a piggyback in front of him, swiftly yet skillfully picking me up to be in his arms. I realized that he was one of my biggest supporters throughout this methodical storm because he didn't judge me at all. At first it was a wonderwall of the ideas of us but then it turned into a wonderland where we got lost somewhere between the lines which we somehow ended up rushing into things as we felt too quickly for each other.

Slowly i was thinking about how people judge him so much saying that he was like a big, broody and sarcastic bad boy hockey player and yet he was more than what meets the eyes for instance, he had to taken care of his mum, two youngers brothers and himself by working as a illegal thrift drivers until he had gotten scouted for a small team whilst attending university including playing for a hockey team. Not once had he ever complained about life being unfair to him despite everyone shocked faces i didnt even cared about what their thoughts were about us because this moment being in his arms felt the most natural, organic and surreal in this instant nonetheless, i was extremely happy to say goodbye to our secrets relationship to finally go public even though, i wasn't how i quite pictured it in the back of my mind us telling all of our friends but either way, i was very glad that there was no more hiding our feeling for one another now.

"I bet if all of my aunts or other girls from school were here then they would judge me for being unladylike. But screw all of them including half of them weren't , a girl's girl if you know what i mean."I ranted on about how society set every girl in the universe an impossible standard and for what? "Wait -what did you say that you were proud of me?"

Done a double take being quite unsure of what to do as he saw his bright smile which made me smile and he gently said whilst staring into my eyes "of course i am proud of my girl. Why would I be mad at you for standing up and defending yourself? If it is in any constellation then heck, I would have punched him myself too." he paused for a brief moment while never letting his gaze on me lingered away. "It's always going to be me and you forever in infinity because my songbird you just being you had continuously made my day yearly ever since i had first lay eyes on you."

This trip to the nightclub wasn't even lit yet we were having all of our friends asked us a few questions out of a curiosity about when we had started dating until I had enough of just sitting here as we got hanged an homemade ice pack by the lovely bartender guy who didn't serve us any of the drinks that the random guy had ordered for us. I didn't even get kicked out because there were multiple CCTV footage in the club showing the video.

"Congrats guys but not to be a bummer about things except that I think we should go somewhere because the night is still young," said Natalia, who high-fived me.

It was only ten o'clock at dusk before going. We needed to do something so merriment that let us forget about the rubbish exes, a creepo tried to touch me on the leg, and the pressure of parents and teachers always expected us to outperform our peers.

"Why don't we just go to the store first to supply for a bonfire night on the beach?" I suggested it to everyone.
