Never Leave My Side
[ 8 ]

As I was dancing with Tyler, Heath came up with a beer in his hand. I wasn’t that drunk and could see that he was pretty drunk; I could smell the beer on his breath. “Hey Mikayla.” He slurred.
I stopped dancing and so did Tyler. We were still in the middle of the dance floor and Tyler protectively put his arm around my shoulders and I hugged his waist. Heath is known for being forceful and he doesn’t care if the girl doesn’t want to do what he wants to.
“Hi Heath.” I said still by Tyler’s side.
He smiled drunkenly, “Wanna dance?”
“I’m dancing with Tyler so no thanks Heath.” I smiled.
He frowned and gulped down the rest of his beer. When he was done with it, he put the can on the table nearby. “I think you do.”
“No Heath, I think I don’t.” I said more firmly, “I’m not drunk and I’m not doing anything with you.”
Tyler tightened his arm around me as Heaths’ face grew angrier, he grabbed my arm that wasn’t wrapped around Tyler and pulled me towards him, “I think you are going to.”
I yanked my arm out of his grip, “No I’m –“
Tyler had stepped in front of me, “She said she’s not doing anything with you so leave her alone.
“What are you gonna do about it!?” Heath yelled getting up in Tyler’s face and attracting the people on the dance floors attention. Someone stopped the music and everyone was coming closer to get a look at the commotion.
Tyler answered by punching Heath in the jaw. It was so hard that Heath flew to the ground gasping in pain, and holding his jaw. “Yo Kevin, Chesca, Jaden! We’re leaving!” Tyler yelled into the house, and then he turned to Heath and said, “Ever touch her like that and you’ll wish that all I did was punch you.”
I grabbed Tyler’s hand and pulled him to where our friends were standing close to the door. We walked outside to Tyler’s car and Kevin took the keys, “Where we crashing tonight?”
“We can crash at my place; my parents are away for the week.” Tyler said as he got into the backseat with Chesca and Jaden.
We all agreed and Kevin drove the few blocks to Tyler’s house.
