All of Me (Sebastian Vettel)

46. Revenge and Love

Seb shoved Dean onto the dusty floor.   Dean quickly scrambled about trying to stand up but Joel pushed him back down onto his knees. 

"Stay right where you are you piece of shit," Joel spat. 

"Help!" Dean shouted.  Seb gave a bitter laugh. 

"Scream all you like.  No one will hear you.   Why do you think we brought you here?  It's so far from anywhere that anyone would need to drive here.  Look around you. Do you see any cars?"

"What do you want?"

"I guess you'll find that out.  Joel..."

Joel grabbed Dean's hair and yanked his head back. 

Seb crouched down and looked at the terrified man.  

"I'm not a violent man Talbot.  I really can't remember the last time I hurt anyone.  I just don't believe that violence is acceptable.  But I am more than happy to make an exception for you.   You dared to hurt the woman I love.   Not content with making her life a living hell for years you came back for more."

"I never touched her.  She lied! She got me sent down for nothing."

Seb grabbed Dean's wrist and twisted it until Dean screamed.  "Lying bastard.   Joel saw what you did to her before.  I've seen what you did to her last night.  You expect us to believe you didn't deserve every minute of your prison sentence?"

Dean began to laugh hysterically.  "Can you blame me?  She's a useless pathetic little bitch.  You must be really desperate if you're fucking that frigid little cow."

He never saw Seb's fist coming.   Joel released his grip on Dean's hair and Seb's punch knocked him to the floor. 

"You really are a nasty piece of shit.  Get up.  To your feet."

Dean slowly pulled himself to his feet, wiping the blood from his split lip on his sleeve.  Joel went to grab him.

"No Joel.  Leave him.   I want to see how tough he is against a man.  Or does he only like hitting women?"

"Be careful."

Seb shrugged his jacket off and pushed his hoodie sleeves up to his elbows. 

"Come on big man. Let's see what you've got."

Dean swung at Seb, who dodged it easily.  He started dancing about, the boxing training he'd done with Antti coming in handy.

"Is that all you got? Perhaps if you pretend I'm a woman.  Someone smaller than you?   I would say weaker but I won't insult Alyssa.  She's not weak anymore.  She's one of the strongest people I know."

"She's a dirty little slag."

Seb lost his control.  He charged at Dean, knocking him to the ground, falling down with him.  Dean managed to land a punch on Seb's jaw, then grabbed hold of Seb's hoodie, holding on tight so Seb couldn't  get to his feet. 

They rolled around, each trying to get the better of the other. Seb brought his knee up and it connected with the underside of Dean's chin, momentarily stunning him.   Seb took advance of it and got to his feet.  He stood over Dean. 

"What is wrong with you? Aly is the most lovely girl.  She's beautiful, inside and out.   She should have been treasured, not beaten.   Give me one good reason why I shouldn't do to you what you did to her!"

Dean began to sob.  Seb wasn't fooled by his tears.   He knew they weren't tears of remorse.  Dean was crying for himself. 

"You won't get away with this.  I'll tell the police."   Seb laughed.
