The next morning, Ryan woke up underneath the coffe table. Sitting up, he looked from one person to the next, before realizing that Jade and Carter were missing. Jumping up from his spot on the floor, he embarked on a mission to find them. Doing his best not to look too suspicious, he headed to the kitchen; they werenโt there. Turning around, he began to make his way to the staircase when Chase stopped him.
ย ย ย โYou know, for someone who claims not to be stuck on Jade, you sure have a funny way of showing it.โ Chase laughed as he leaned against the doorframe.ย
Whipping around, Ryan looked at Chase.ย
ย ย ย โShut the fuck up. Shouldnโt you be talking to Liv? Her and that freak seemed quite cozy the other night.โ Ryan spat coldly.ย
Chase laughed.ย
ย ย ย โYouโre a sad fuck. You know that?โ Chase said, before poking his tongue against his cheek.ย
Ryan let out a laugh.ย
ย ย ย โYeah, says the guy letting some freak show steal his bitch.โ Ryan said.ย
Chaseโs nostrils flared as his fingers curled into fist.ย
ย ย ย โYou watch your mouth. Iโm not the one lying to myself and everyone around me. You can call Jade a whore and talk about how easy she is to bed all you want but we all know you’re still hurting about her taking Ricky to bed. You can-โ
Chaseโs sentence was cut short as Ryan shoved him back into the refrigerator and pinned his forearm against Chaseโs neck.ย
ย ย ย โWhy donโt you shut the fuck up, huh? You run around here like you know shit, you donโt know shit Chase. Stick to making sure that freak doesnโt steal your bitch eh? How about-โ
Ryanโs sentence was cut short as Chase shoved Ryan, causing him to stagger backwards. Then, stalking forward, Chase was about to get in Ryanโs face when the kitchen door swung open.ย
ย ย ย โWhy are you assholes still here?โ Chelsea asked, looking back and forth between the two men.ย
Chase stared at Ryan long and hard for a moment before turning to face Chelsea.ย
ย ย ย โI was just leaving.โ He said, slipping past her.ย
ย ย ย โYou should follow him.โ Chelsea said, nodding her head in the direction of the back door.ย
Ryan scoffed.ย
ย ย ย โNah, Iโm good.โ He said, turning towards the fridge.ย
Ryan was only able to open the refrigerator about a centimeter before Chelsea forced it close again.ย
โRyan that wasnโt a suggestion. Get the fuck out of my house.โ She said, giving him a deathglare.ย
Realizing she wasnโt messing around, Ryan released his hold on the fridge handle.ย
โTell Jade to call me. We need to talk.โ He said.ย
Chelsea rolled her eyes.ย
โAlright, whatever. Now leave.โ She said, pushing him towards the door.ย
After throwing an โIโm seriousโ over his shoulder, Ryan allowed Chelsea to push him out the door.ย
