[ 20 ] Two on Three

a/n - super super short chapter.

Lunch passed, as did the other classes and soon, the school day was over. Just as Kevin and Tyler agreed, they went to confront Lucas and as expected, he was waiting for them with his two friends on the far side of the football field. Nazz went after them, not wanting them to confront the others alone. Eddward went too, wishing that they would all just walk away.

Lucas smirked as they all walked over, the two boys behind him doing the same. Eddward thought they might have been the two from the junk yard incident. "So you showed up. I was sure you were gonna wuss out."

"You fucking wish Harrison," Tyler said.

"We gotta settle this," Kevin growled.

"Settle what? All I've done is deal with a little bitchy dork who's so pathetic he can't even stand up for himself," Lucas smiled.

"Oh you fucker," Kevin swore.

"The kid didn't do anything and you put him in hospital? You almost killed him. You beat the living shit outta him and you left him to die!" Tyler yelled.

Lucas smirked again. "Little dorko over there? Hidin' behind the cheer leader bimbo? Is weak as fuck. He deserves it. He's so fun to mess with. You probably know this, but I use to mess with him loads. Every day I'd just look forward to making him cry out or something. He's just such a fucking waste of space-"

"Stop it!" Nazz yelled.

"-how can you not mess with him-"

"Shut up," Tyler growled.

"-I mean really, he's just such a waste of breath. Personally I think he should-"

"Shut the fuck up," Kevin yelled.

"-just die."

Eddward couldn't breathe. His throat was obstructed by a cry he couldn't quite get out.

Die.

"I mean, wouldn't it just be better off for everyone?" he laughed. He sounded mad. Manic and psychopathic.

And just like that, hell broke loose. Kevin jumped at Lucas, catching him in a right hook, shaking his head back. Tyler punched at his two friends, knocking one of them down, the other cracking his fist back against Tyler's nose. Lucas threw a punch back at Kevin's face, catching his jaw. Nazz ran away to get help, leaving Eddward to watch the savage battle rage on.

Punches connected with faces and kicks connected with shins. Tyler knocked out one of Lucas's friends with an uppercut to the jaw, throwing another closed fist at the one still standing. It connected, knocking the other to the ground. Kevin and Lucas threw punch after punch at each other, until Kevin got in a bigger hit to the boy's chest, knocking the wind out of him. He span around and fell to the ground, gasping for air as his lungs were emptied. Kevin stood there, soon joined by Tyler, who's face was busied and beaten much like his own. His nose was most likely broken too, blood dripping down his face. "Had enough?" Kevin asked the boy on the ground. Lucas knelt there for a moment having regained somewhat normal breathing, as though he was contemplating his answer before he turned and lunged at Kevin.

The next few seconds dragged out like an eternity. Well, it seemed too.

Lucas reached Kevin, dragging his fist along his stomach. In his hand was an open switch-blade. It tore into the ginger. It went through his shirt, separating the skin.

And just like that, Kevin fell.

Blood began to seep through the wound like a fountain of red. The shirt stuck to his skin as it became soaked in the horrid liquid.

Kevin gasped for a moment, and then stopped. He didn't move after that, just laid there.

Oh

so

still.

I'm a horrible person.
