Stop being a baby

Ronnie's point of view:

As Derek grabbed my wrist, I froze in shock.

My heart was pounding in my chest as he pulled me away from Jacob's arms.

I could feel my face contort in a mixture of surprise and fear. What was happening? Why was Derek doing this?

Being in Derek's arms felt oddly comforting, but I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease.

As he shielded me away from Jacob, I caught my breath and looked up at him.

His eyes were filled with anger and possessiveness. "She's mine," he declared, his voice firm and unwavering.

I could see the anger in Jacob's eyes as he looked at Derek.

"What the hell's your deal, huh?" he spat out. "She's your sister. Why can't you let her hang out with me? Or are you two dating?"

"Huh?!" I exclaimed.

Derek narrowed his eyes. "Go ahead and think whatever you like. I wouldn't be bothered with the likes of you. Just keep your filthy hands off Ronnie."

I had no idea what was going on. My head was in a spiral and I can't even think straight.

"Why?"
