“Ok, ok, I’m done with this.” Jason tried to play it cool, but he was a little annoyed that he didn’t manage to win a dime the entire game. He called the waiter to refill our glasses.
“Me too,” Nate said and threw his cards on the table, folding. “I like this band that’s playing.”
They were indeed good, killing it with a cover for All I Wanna Do by Sheryl Crow. The sound didn’t match the classy room with crystal chandeliers, but it was one of my favorite songs. Judging by the way he was nodding his head to it, Nate was into it too.
“I didn’t know you were a Sheryl Crow fan, Nate. Is this what you listen to in the locker room after games?”
He laughed and jumped off his chair and came close to me.
“Oh, yeah, I love Miss Crow; she’s fly.” He took my hand and helped me out of the high chair. “But not as fly as you, Cat.”
I bit my tongue so as not to tell him how cheesy that sounded and just smiled. Nate pulled me closer by my waist and put his forehead over mine.
“Nate?” I asked, trying to figure out what he wanted to do.
“You’re hot, Cat. I know you know.” In a reckless move, he slid both his hands down and grabbed my ass. I immediately pushed away, worried that someone might see him and decide to cut his hands for it.
“Nate, not here. I know these people.”
“You’re right.” He stank like a French vineyard in the fall. “Let’s go to my place.”
I had him right where I wanted. I decided some time ago that it was time to start living wild and lose my damn virginity before I found myself glued to the same man for the rest of my life. The fact that Nate was one of the popular guys in my school, and he was attractive – in a very privileged, pretentious way – didn’t hurt at all.
“What about the others?”
“I’m sure Miriam and Jason can find their own way home. Or maybe he’ll just fuck her in the parking lot, who knows? But I would never disrespect you like that, Cat. I want to take my time to…”
Before he got to finish his overused description of sex…that didn’t impress or turn me on in the slightest…something happened. In the next second, Nate was separated from me, and…he was dangling in the air.
I shrieked and stepped back, surprised by the whole scene. Behind me, Miriam screamed from the top of her lungs, and Jason jumped on his feet too, not knowing if he should say something.
“Hugo!” I yelled, but he ignored me, focused on giving Nate heart failure.
Hugo’s arm was flexed, his fist grabbing Nate by the throat, keeping him up, while the poor guy was trying to breath and struggling to get himself free. Seemed like someone saw him touching my ass.
“Horny, young man?” Hugo growled, and people started to gather around. I saw Ignazio and my cousin, Vincenzo, walking our way.
Cenzo pushed Jason out of his way to get to me.
“Catherinelle, are you alright?”
“I’m fine, but Hugo is trying to murder my class mate. Hugo, can you stop?” I looked over my shoulder to see Miriam almost passing out in Jason’s arms. “It’s ok; he’s not going to hurt him,” I told them, but it didn’t have the calming effect I was hoping for.
Hugo wasn’t a huge help either.
“Don’t listen to her, fucker. I will hurt you.” And he slammed Nate on the card table. This was getting out of hand.
I jumped forward, grabbing Hugo’s other hand, trying to pull him off Nate.
“This is enough, let him go.”
“I don’t wanna hear another word from you,” he said, and in a move I didn’t see coming, he pushed me.
Hugo Mustafa pushed me, and it wasn’t a slight shove. I was thrown all the way to Vincenzo, and I would have hit the floor if my cousin hadn’t caught me.
“Mustafa, what the fuck?” Cenzo yelled at him.
“I’m fine. I’m alright. Ignazio, can someone drive me home? And a car for my friends too?”
