Slow Down

Chapter 11: 'I'm Not Interrupting That'

Patrick's POV

"Okay. So tell me again what happened."

"I already told you, Tony. I couldn't see who jumped me."

"I know that. So it was next to the stairs in that apartment block, right?"

"Yes."

"Okay. I'll get some guys to do some digging. I'm letting you off for tomorrow because of the match. But on Sunday you will deliver the drugs I asked you to. They won't go for you in the same place twice."

I nodded and stood up.

"Patrick?"

I spun around.

"Who fixed you up after?"

"I don't know. Some woman. She asked me how it happened and I told her I fell and shit."

He nodded. I walked away and sighed. I wasn't telling him anything about Madison or her aunt. God knows what he'd do.

Maddison's POV

Brooklyn had sent me a text asking if he could hang out on Sunday instead of Saturday. I didn't mind but I couldn't admit to myself that I'd completely forgotten about it. Even though Patrick and I had that kind of moment, I think I was basically over my crush on him. It wasn't realistic, just a fantasy.

I did wonder why Brooklyn had to cancel so suddenly but, like everything else, I paid it no attention. I decided to have a bath and clear my head.

Chanel texted me whilst I was in there telling me she had news. I waited till I was out of the bath and called her. She wanted to meet up for coffee so we went to the closest cafe.

I decided to just throw on a pair of black leggings and a white hoodie. I genuinely just wanted to lay around and be lazy today.

...

"So. After the whole 'Patrick is a twat' incident Lewis baker followed me back on instagram, and then direct messaged me saying sorry for Patrick's behaviour. Oh my god I nearly screamed. He asked for my number and said that we should meet up and girl you better know I was all over that."

Wow she was talking fast. I had to calm her down before she got too excited.

"That's amazing. Wow, looks like you're finally living out your dream. Just use protection please?"

She winked at me and we both laughed. I told her everything about Patrick. I decided it would make me feel better if I told her, and I knew she wouldn't tell anyone. It's Chanel.

"Wow."

"I know."

"What did his thighs feel like?"

Is she serious?

"That's all you took from what I just told you?"

"What? I want to know. Were they muscly?"

I rolled my eyes and sipped my coffee. We gossiped some more about the people in our university and how someone got pregnant by their best friend's boyfriend and it resulted in a bitch fight in the chem lab.

I got back, and Rey was really excited to go to tomorrow's match. I had to admit it would be annoying not getting to watch Patrick play. I think Rey thought he still would be. He looked pretty sore still last time I saw him. I don't think that's going to happen.

We all had a chill night and watched some of our favourite movies.

I picked Clueless, obviously.
Aunt Jessie picked Legally Blonde and of course Rey picked Scooby doo. Good choice if I'm honest.
