“It means you, of all people, have no right deciding what is right for her when she was sexually assaulted because of you!”

“You think I don’t know that?” Jason shouts. “You think I haven’t relived what that arsehole said about what happened to her? I wanted to throw up hearing how she screamed, how Hudson made her bleed.”

“None of that would have happened if you had just fucking killed him when you had the chance the first time!” Christian shouts back.

“Guys, you're going to wake her,” Sean warns, trying to get between them.

“Fuck you, Christian! You, of all people, know how tough this life is.”

“Yeah, I do, especially with you hiding behind me and expecting me to fix your mistakes all the fucking time.” Christian takes another step towards Jason, who doesn’t back down. “How long until another one of your fuck ups puts her in danger again?”

“Fuck you,” Jason snaps. Before any of us see it coming, Christian punches Jason in the face. Sean and I stand shocked as Jason stares at Christian as he wipes blood from the corner of his mouth.

“Feel better now?”

“No,” Christian answers as he swings to punch him again, but this time, Jason is expecting it and lets out a roar before rugby-tackling Christian. The two of them go down hard. Jason manages to straddle him and get in a hard punch before Christian rolls them and starts punching back.

“You fucking piece of shit!” Jason yells as I see blood on the side of his face.

“Guys, pack it the fuck in!” I yell, trying to pull Jason off Christian, who quickly rolls them out of my reach and manages to get a few punches in.

“Christian, stop!” Sean yells as we both manage to grab him and pull him off Jason, who jumps to his feet and charges towards us.

“Let him go!” Jason shouts, grabbing Christian's shirt and pulling him to his feet. Christian grabs Jason's shirt in return and, after a few turns, manages to pin Jason to the wall.

“Daddy!”

We all turn to find Jasmine standing at her door, staring at us wide-eyed.

“Get in your room, Jasmine,” Christian snaps before slamming Jason into the wall. “Now!”

“Don’t fucking speak to her like that!” Jason yells, pushing Christian away from him. “It’s not her fault you are an arsehole!” Jason shouts. He goes to turn towards Jasmine, but Christian grabs him and throws him in the opposite direction. Jason falls and slides across the wooden floor, before coming to a stop closer to his room.

“You don’t go near her!” Christian warns, stepping between Jason and Jasmine.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” Jasmine yells, going to rush towards Jason, but Christian grabs her arm to stop her.

“Get in your room, now.”

“No!” Jasmine snaps, staring at him straight in the eye. She has balls I’ll give her that.

“Jasmine Rose, do as you are fucking told for once in your life!” Christian yells as he turns to drag her back to her room. Jason, Sean and I all charge towards them as we hear her cry out.

“You’re hurting me.”

Christian stops in his tracks, looks down at his hand and lets her go immediately. I grab her and place her behind me as Sean stands beside us, keeping Christian away from our girl.

“Sweetheart, I’m. I-” I watch as the realisation hits, and he stares at Jasmine while she stays behind me. He takes a step forward, but Sean gets in the way.

“Go to bed and sleep it off,” Sean warns, holding a hand up. “You’ve had too much to drink and a lot of shit to deal with. Sleep it off, and we will all talk tomorrow.”

Christian goes to speak to her again, but I’ve had enough.

“Don’t even look at her! If you try to go near her again tonight, you will have me to deal with.”

Christian looks from Sean to me and then finally to Jason. Now that they have stopped fighting, I can see how beat up they are. Neither of them held back.

“I’m so sorry, Sweetheart,” Christian whispers as he tries to look at Jasmine again. I reach round to move her further behind me, only to find she has moved away from him, herself.
