What If I Can't Forget You? (Tony Perry)

Chapter 2 ::
***~BRIDIE'S P.O.V~***
As I sat back in my seat after hugging Jaime, Vic whispered into Jaime's ear. Even over the fairly loud music I still heard.
"Hey, Jaime. I just had the best idea." Vic whispered
"Go on." Jaime said back. Vic started to whisper again and I couldn't hear what they were saying any more. So I just stared blankly at my drink, sipping at it every once in a while. The thoughts from earlier still circling my mind. But they were interrupted when the slightly taller and hyper Mexican screamed "YEAH!" really loudly which made me jump.
"Woah! Calm down Hime Time!" I laughed. They both had this gleeful look on their faces and now I really wanted to know what they were just talking about. But before I could ask, Vic spoke.
"Okay so..." Looks like I'm going to find out. "I just came up with the best idea ever!" He looked over at Jaime and they both smiled excitedly. "I'm sure you know Adam?"
"Elmakias? Yeah, of course! He's one of my biggest inspirations! I've looked up to him for years!" I replied exitedly as the many thoughts of what they could've talked about whizzed through my mind.
"Well..." Vic began. "Me and the guys love having a photographer to capture the moments and stuff, and I don't know if you know, but Adam has had to leave for a while which of course means no photographer. And me and Jaime think that you'd be a good photographer for the job because you've taken a load of photos at live shows, and you've probably done shoots and stuff too, so... What d'ya say? Fancy being our photographer?" Those words, 'fancy being our photographer?' are the words I've longed to hear from a band like this! This must be one of the best and worst days of my life! But who cares about Sam? He's obviously not worth it! I won't let that ruin this now!
"YES!" I scream. "I'd love to do it!" I jump up and latch myself onto the two Mexicans and tears of joy fall from my eyes.
"But you'll have to show us your portfolio first." Vic said as I let go of them.
"Sure! My house is about a 10-15 minute walk away. I hope Sam's gone though." I frown.
"Don't worry about it. I'm sure it'll be fine." Jaime said.
---------------------------------
We just arrived at my house and were walking up to the front door when I could hear shuffling inside.
"He's still here." I said monotonously as I opened the door to reveal my ex-boyfriend packing things into boxes. He looked up and sniggered.
"Already found someone who can stand that face?" He says when he sees Vic appear to the right of me. Then Jaime appears to the left of me. "Oh? Two people. Ha! Good luck guys. That face gets tedious after a while. My advice; get out while you can! She's a fucking slut and doesn't deserve anyone. And those scars are enough to make anyone want to throw up!" He sneered. I saw Vic step forward and he looked incredibly angry. That comment really hit home and I could feel the tears starting to form.
"One; me and Jaime are not here to fuck Bridie if that's what you're suggesting. Two; she's fucking beautiful. Absolutely stunning. You were lucky to have a woman like her! Three; she's not a slut, the girl you were fucking on that couch earlier was and you're a fucking man whore. Four; everyone deserves someone, everyone except people like you. Five; don't you EVER say something like that about someone's scars. You should feel ashamed about saying that!" Vic looked so angry. He looked like he was going to explode. "Six; NEVER speak to a woman like that. And finally; this." Vic's right fist swung forward and connected with the left side of Sam's jaw. He fell to the floor and Vic was right there, punching over and over again. Until he finally stopped and stood up, giving Sam one last kick to the gut. There was blood coming from Sam's mouth and nose, and his nose looked crooked now. Sam was now grunting and clutching his face and stomach when a girl walked in. She looked really familiar. Fuck... That's-
"Erin?" Jaime and Vic said at the same time.
