To Love Again 🩵Matt Rempe

16-Momentary Sweetheart

Jack heard the commotion coming from outside of his car and jumped out of the vehicle. He couldn't believe who was standing right in front of his brother and sister.

"Get out!" Jack yelled at the man, "Leave."

"Can't make me," Mason jeered, "This is a public place."

"I won't ask again, get out of my face," Jack demanded walking to stand in front of both of his younger siblings.

"You know, Luke, I never thought you and Stella looked alike," Mason smirked, "But with that bruise on your face, you two are twins. Did you cry too?"

"That's it!" Jack exploded, all he could see was red, "Get the fuck out of here before I make you."

"Please, what are you going to do hit me?" Mason laughed, "I've seen you punch before, man, not impressive, I could give you some tips though."

"I mean since you asked so kindly," Jack smiled punching Mason square in the jaw.

"What the fuck!" Mason exclaimed clutching his throbbing jaw.

"You asked me to," Jack shrugged in response.

Mason went to shove Jack and succeded, the two were punching each other. Lucky for Jack's face, Mason was missing almost every punch. Unlucky for Mason, Jack got a right hook straight into the man's eye.

"Aren't you going to stop them?" Stella asked Luke who was just watching.

"Stella, I'm trying my hardest not to join in. Why would I stop them?" Luke questioned with clenched fists.

"He's going to get hurt," she worried, "There isn't a ref here to stop this."

"He'll be fine," Luke assured, "He knows how to handle his own."

"You're an asshole," Mason seethed, blood dripping from his teeth.

"Well, you're a little bitch," Jack shot back, looking to land another punch when someone finally decided to step in.

The man grabbed Mason, pulling him away from Jack who was still trying to attack.

"A little help here?" the guy asked Luke nodding towards Jack.

"Jack, stop!" Stella yelled, "He's had enough."

"I'll decide when he's had enough," Jack scoffed, trying to push away Luke who was now holding him.

"You two need to chill out, and walk away from each other," the mystery man ordered.

"Thanks, but we have it from here," Luke told the guy.

Mason shrugged the guy's arm off of him, "I was just trying to talk to my girlfriend when her brother attacked me."

"She isn't dating you anymore," Jack seethed, "You lost her, asshole."

"Can we just go inside?" Stella asked her brothers, she was getting stressed out and needed to be away from certain people before she snapped.

Jack and Luke both nodded and the three began walking towards the entrance.

"Stella, baby, come back!" Mason called out.

"I'm not your baby. In case you haven't realized we are done!" she yelled at him.

Mason lunged forward only to be thrown back by the man who was previously holding him.

"Get out of here, man," the person advised, "It's getting embarrassing for you."

For once in his life, Mason listened to a hockey player. The player watched the other man walk away, and when he turned to try and find the girl she had already gone inside, but he was determined to find her.
