Chapter 167 - Get Arrested

"Mmm. We wouldn\'t want that, now would we?" He had a thoughtful expression on his face. "I wonder what you would think if we met in high school and I was this awkward kid who really wasn\'t confident in himself."

"I can imagine you having a growth spurt and awkwardly walking around it. Weren\'t you a complete nerd, too?" she asked lightly. He nodded. "I like the larger than life personality you have right now, but I would have liked nerdy Cage, too." She leaned over and kissed him softly.

He returned the kiss tenfold, pecking her lips a couple of times before giving her a blinding smile. "My god, I was so shy back then. I probably would have fled if you approached me." He chuckled.

And that image was all Katherine needed to blush and giggle. "I can imagine you running away from me, screaming silently as I run behind you, trying to catch your attention." She booped his nose for good measure. "I just want to play with you, Cage," she said in a little girl voice.

"As scared as I would be, I doubt I would reject your requests to play."

"I think I puked a little," Lily groaned from the side. For a second, the couple had forgotten that they had company. To say the truth, this would not be the only time. Katherine snickered slightly, feeling a minimal amount of embarrassment. No need to rub her happiness on other people who were not having a great time in their relationship.

"Sorry," Katherine and Cage said in unison.

"Meh, it\'s alright. Honestly, I am glad to see this stupid girl so happy. I haven\'t seen her so giddy and in love ever and I have known her since we were in diapers." Oh, come on. Did you need to bring in diapers?

"Ever?" Cage asked, a grin plastered on his face as he looked at Katherine.

"If I didn\'t know better, I would think she was spending a bomb on cosmetics. She has a glow about herself that she didn\'t have with Jonathan. They were a bit awkward around one another and I knew for a fact that Katherine didn\'t like being sweet and cuddly..." She trailed off. "Oh, how the mighty fall," Lily joked, winking at Katherine.

That was actually true. Katherine had never felt this connection before and she couldn\'t imagine falling so hard for someone she had only known for half a month. "I\'ve never felt this way before," she admitted.

\'Yes, just break into a Disney song and the scene will be complete,\' Lily thought to herself.

"Me, too." Was his reply. It warmed the c.o.c.kles of her heard and she smiled at him as he played with a stray strand of her hair. He really liked her hair, didn\'t he?

"Okay, I don\'t want to see more of this," Lily admonished. "I\'ll go to my room and do my own business. You two continue." Just as she was about to leave, the front door swung open. The stomping of heels was so loud that all three people in the room turned to look at the source of the sound, stunned.

It was Angelina. She looked positively livid. "Bloody f.u.c.ker!" she swore as she stormed in. She turned abruptly and waved her finger at the man who had entered after her. "You are not invited."

Stephen, who had just been spoken to, rolled his eyes and sauntered in after her.

Katherine and Lily looked between the two and wondered what had happened since last morning that set Angelina off.

"Be rational. I did my best to keep you out of trouble."

Trouble. Yes. Angelina\'s best friend. Now, what kind of trouble it had been was still to be known.

"Maybe I like trouble!" she screamed back at him. Katherine glanced at Cage and saw how bewildered he looked. She rubbed circles on his hand to reassure him.

"Happens all the time," she whispered just to be sure that the point was driven across. With that, the two turned back to watch the drama that was unfolding.

"What? That makes no sense. Why would you want to get arrested?" Stephen demanded in a gruff voice. "Believe me, been there. Done that. It\'s not fun like they show on television."

When was getting arrested fun on television? What world was this guy living in?

"You ruined everything. I would have ended her with a single punch!" Lily quirked a brow. She had known Angelina loved bad boys and what not but she didn\'t know that Angelina had a penchant for getting arrested. The girl loved to stir up trouble and drama, but not to the point that she could get arrested.

"Angel, I think the gravity of the situation is escaping you. You pummelled her and she called the cops on you. And I doubt you could have \'ended\' her, as you put it. If I hadn\'t held you back, you would have punched the police officer as well. It wouldn\'t have gone over lightly, either."

Praise the Lord, had she got into a fistfight with someone and then tried to attack a cop?

"Stop calling me Angel!" she gritted out. "That bitch deserved the beating for ogling you. She treated me like air. And her clothes? Preposterous!" She seethed. "She was flirting with you and you let her." She stepped threateningly forward and jabbed her fingers into his chest. "I could see the wheels turning in your head. You were imagining a threesome, weren\'t you? Get this straight, that will never happen."

Though Katherine was confused, she picked up on the main issue. Angelina didn\'t like to be treated like she wasn\'t important... like she wasn\'t pretty enough to be noticed. Someone had approached Stephen while she was around and even though she wasn\'t fully into the guy, she didn\'t like being treated like the leftover.

Made sense.

"For the love of God! Shut the f.u.c.k up!" Lily shouted. Everyone turned to her in surprise, especially the two engaged in the heated argument. "I love the theatricals, but give us some damn context to enjoy the show, will you?" Damn right!
