All Chapters of The Bad Boy’s Fight Club: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

I could practically feel the bass of the music pulsating underneath my feet as Kaden led me up the stairs of the Reyes mansion. I sucked in a deep breath trying not to be too overwhelmed by all the cars parked outside. I didn't even have to enter the house to know it must have been packed. And packed it was. When we walked in, we barely had room to navigate through everyone. Both men and women were all around, dancing, screaming, drinking... A cloud of smoke practically filled up the foyer and I almost felt dizzy by it all. I held Kaden's arm tighter suddenly feeling small when I saw a guy being flanked by two barely dressed women. I felt so silly in my little floral dress. Kaden looked down at me and gave me a strained but reassuring smile as he reached over to take my hand in his. He started walking in casually but confidently. At first I thought he would at least say excuse me to the people in front of him. But to my surprise, the minute people saw it was him, they

I tried to keep my tears from falling out as I pushed through groups of people trying to make my way out of the house. Suddenly everything was too loud, too overstimulating and I felt like I was going to shatter. When the hell was I going to stop with all this back and forth when it came to Kaden? All I wanted was for him to let me in and he just constantly did the opposite. Everytime I thought we were making progress, like him letting me come to this party, it all turned into something else. Something completely different and then we were back to square one all over again. Oomph. I felt myself bump into something hard. Correction, someone. I looked up and saw Shark's blue eyes looking down at me. Great, just great. He studied me, placing his hands on my shoulders to steady me. "Leaving so soon?" He asked sounding smug. I rolled my eyes and stepped away from his hold. "Yes, so if you don't mind." I spoke impatiently waiting for him to get out of my way. He smir

I looked around Shark's house. I don't know what I had been expecting. Weapons all around. Heavy metal posters on the wall? A lot of black. But it was actually painfully normal and plain. Like the house of a typical college aged single guy I guess. It was quite small. Or maybe I was just comparing it to Kaden's mansion. It was a studio apartment set up. A hastily made bed sat in the corner with a simple bedside table and a lamp by the side. I spotted a journal there and couldn't exactly picture Shark sitting down and jotting down his thoughts. There was an open concept kitchen with grey counter tops and a few dishes in the sink. A lone grey couch sat in front of a TV and there were three more doors. One I assumed must have led to a bathroom. I hesitated by the door as Shark casually walked in like I wasn't even there. "You gonna stand there all day?" He asked as he plopped down on his bed. I closed the door behind me wondering what Drew would say about me being in

"So, we're just gonna pretend that didn't happen?" I asked out loud once the silence between Kaden and I had gotten way too unbearable. We had just left Shark's house and Kaden had been so quiet and serious, it was almost frightening. "That's pretty much my plan." Kaden spoke. I saw him look into the rear view mirror and I knew immediately he was studying the Ford truck Rand and Nick were in behind us. I sighed and sank back into my seat reaching over to rub the bandage around my hand. "What were you two talking about back there with Shark? When you asked me to leave?" Kaden was silent for a few minutes, his eyes fixed on the road. "I'd prefer it if you didn't ask me such questions, Mia." I immediately felt my blood start to boil after he said that. "Oh, I'm sorry, would you rather I talk about the shooting that happened at your house? Or maybe the girl I found in your room. Do tell, Kaden." Kaden ran a hand down his face. I could immediately tell he was frustrated

"Whoa, did you get into a fight or something?" I looked up from the book I had been reading and saw Branson carrying his guitar case and slumping into the chair next to me. We were in the cafeteria and I had barely touched my 'surprise meat'. Kaden hadn't texted me back all night and I hadn't heard from him all morning either. Quite frankly I was getting worried. He had left my house in such low spirits and I just knew he was beating himself up over everything that was going on. Was I afraid? Heck yeah! Now that I had gotten the chance to actually sit in silence with what had happened, I was terrified that someone out there was planning my literal demise."Mia?" Branson spoke again and this time I found hin staring at me strangely with a confused look on his face. "Oh." I hadn't realised I had completely zoned out right now. I looked at my still bandaged hand realising this is what he had been referring to. "Oh this is nothing." I spoke quickly tucking my hand underneath the tabl
