Walking up to the door Lyn thought about knocking, but decided against it, no one would be able to hear it over the loud music anyway. She shouldn't have to be here in the first place, but since Pierce wasn't at his own apartment she knew he would be at Johnny's place. Johnny always had a party after the winning matches. Also, since she missed the game altogether she wanted to congratulate the guys on their win and she didn't want to be here long. She had other things on her mind, like the fact that Devin cancelled on going to the match with her at the last minute. Nothing new there, it wasn't out of the ordinary, they would sometimes go days without even so much as a text message, but this felt different her.
Upon opening the door to the apartment Lyn was instantly hit with the overwhelming smells of smoke and alcohol, very similar to that of a bar. Lyn started to maze her way through the sea of bodies and almost instantly spotted Johnny, his height made him hard to miss, the trick was getting to him through the crowd.
"Johnny! Your apartment is trashed." Lyn yelled over the music.
"It's for a good cause sweetheart, you missed the match what gives?"
"I know I'm sorry something came up. Looks like you won. Congratulations."
"Yea yea you can make it up to me later." Johnny said with a wink.
"Don't be gross, where's Cohen?" Jaylyn said hitting Johnny in the shoulder.
"He's on the couch."
Walking toward the couch Lyn sees the bare back of a girl with shoulder length black hair who was obviously straddling someone. It was Pierce she could tell by his shoes. She stood watching his hands rub up her sides then back down stopping to grip her hips. Lyn wanted to run up and drag that girl by her hair and out to the street, but instead she turned around and left. She would confront him about it later. She needed to figure out why this pissed her off so much especially when she had no claim on him. No girl could ever have claim on Pierce. He wouldn't have it.
**********************************
Pierce was not in a good mood, which was no surprise he also had no idea who the girl on his lap was and he didn't care. This girl was going to be his new distraction for the night or at least until he grew bored of her.
"Let's go." Pierce grumbled to her as he pulled her through the sea of bodies, not caring who was in his way.
"Watch where you're going." The voice said to him breaking him from his trance.
"What are you doing here?" He said looking down at her.
"I came to talk to Johnny." Lyn said looking at the leggy girl hanging on his arm.
"Where are you going Jaylyn?"
"Back to the dorm. You obviously have your hands full."
"No you're not." He said to her.
Pierced looked at the girl on his arm and told her to get lost. He then looked back at Lyn and grabbed her by the arm leading her outside.
"Cohen, let me go."
He led her to his car and opened the passenger side door.
"Get in."
"No." Lyn said.
"Get in or I will put you in." He said through clenched jaws.
"We can talk out here. We don't have to leave."
The last thing Lyn wanted to do was be trapped in a small place with Pierce especially when his moods were like this.
"Get in the car Lyn."
Lyn sat down in the car only to have him slam the door just barely missing her foot. He walked around to the driver's side, locked the doors and drove off.
"Where are we going?"
No answer.
"Cohen?"
No answer.
"If I'm going to be talking to myself then I want you to take me back."
"No."
