Bad Ass B*@tch-Not What You Think

A Different Side

10 Minutes later

'Oh my gosh!' Jake starts so say, 'I have never seen a girl fight as well as she did.'

I totally agree with Jake, she whooped his arse. Within the first 5 minutes he had been knocked down multiple times. She was definitely the dominate fighter, and her moves were so advanced that I didn't know some of the moves, and that's saying something.

After the fight I went to get more booze losing Jake and Riley in the process. I was probably out looking for either Riley or Jake for about an hour before I gave up. So I was stumbling around where the ring was when I see this girl, unlike anybody I had seen before. She looked kind of badass with the tats and boots but she had nerdy glasses on and long brown hair. I swear I've seen her before and I swore to myself I would find out who she was.

'Kylan wake up. You're staying at my house but I am not dragging you up those stairs,' I heard someone talking to me.

'Meh' I mumbled, until I felt a cold bucket of water of splashes onto my face.

'What the hell!' I yelled getting up and hitting my head against the door frame. 'Shit' I mumbled rubbing my heard.

I turned to look at Riley and Jake laughing at me uncontrollably. 'It's not funny' I mumbled through gritted teeth.

Shit it's cold at what, 2:00 in the morning. I could hear rumbling coming from the house. Jake and Riley both immediately stopped laughing and motioned to be quiet. The rumbling stopped, so we went to the back door, slowly opened it and snuck into Jake's house.

'Phew, I didn't think we were going to make it' Jake started to say as he walked through the house.

Immediately the light came on. 'Shit' I thought. There was Jake's mum, sitting on the couch, waiting for us. We all just stood quietly, sneaking looks at each other, unsure of what to say. His mum started talking first.

'Did you have a good night?' she asked.

I was a bit shocked, shouldn't she be yelling and shouting at us.

'Ahhh, yeah I guess so." Jake answered.

'Riley did you drink, like I told you not too?' she inquired.

I swear we were getting interrogated and I was unsure of how to act.

'No Ma, I didn't' he replied. 'What's those bruises and cuts on your face for then?' she said quickly walking of to his face checking the cuts.

"oh, I umm, accidently got into a fight.' He replied sheepishly. 'What is this kid doing?' I wondered.

" accidently?'

'Well yeah I didn't mean to. I accidently walked into a girl that was holding a drink, so the drink spilt on her, so she started having a meltdown, so I tried cleaning it up for her. Then her boyfriend came over and thought I was touching his girl inappropriately so then he tried starting a fight. So he got a few punches in and so did I, and then a guy came ripped the boyfriend off me and kicked him out, I"

'I get it Riley, are you ok?' she asks again. 'Shit that kid is good at lying, I mean he had all the facials as well, sad, hurt, pain.' I thought to myself, trying not to smile.

'I'm glad you had a good night, but I told you that you couldn't' be out later then 12, its 2:00 now. So you know what that means. You're grounded for 2 weeks, you can't go out at nights later then 10 and you can't drive to school Jake." His mum told us.

'What, but mum..."

'No Jake I don't want excuses if you were late because of Riley's injuries you should have called and said you'd be late. No excuses, now go to bed and you will be at school tomorrow by the start of second period."

The boys huffed and mumbled about their punishment as they walked to their rooms. She then turned to me,

'Will you be staring the night Kylan?'

'Yes Mrs Williams, if that's ok with you of course.' I say looking at the floor.

"Of course it is Kylan, you are like a son to me. You are welcome in my home whenever you want.'

'Thanks Mrs Williams, good night' I replied making my way towards the guest room that is like my second home.

'Kylan, wait' she asked me just as I reached the stairs. I turned and looked at her,

"Kylan if this is about an argument you had with your parents, I'm sorry.' She then hugged me, sometimes I don't know how she knows what's going on in my life.

I'm not much of an emotional person or a touchy person, but I trust Mrs Williams, so I do the thing I've wanted to do all day... I cry.

She just holds me and soothes me as I cry. I don't know why I'm crying, maybe It's the fact that I know my father hates me and that my mother's just a fake, I just don't feel loved anymore, hence the hole 'bad boy' attitude.

'Thanks Mrs Williams," I mumble as I wipe my eyes, walking towards my room.

"Anytime kiddo, and you are welcome to stay as long as you like.' She says to me as she turns off the light and makes her way to her bedroom.

Jake's mum has always been caring to me, sometimes I think and wish she was my real mum.
