Lacey's POV:
All I hear are crashes of impact, skin crushing into bone, muscles and tissue imploding. Someone is punching the shit out of Chad.
"Is
"Kara... Kara... KARA!", Kaylynn screams. Shit... did I do that not listening thing again?"Yea?""Tell us!", Kaylynn and Lisa say in unison.

His eyes never left the road, and I could tell he was getting antsy as I maintained the silence in the car. My face softened a bit, but it morphed into confusion.We pass townhouses, skyscrapers, parks, and pools on our drive. Kids play mindlessly among one another, and adults converse and bond over drinks. This group of teens, guys, was strolling out of Starbucks, taking selfies and yelling "period", when a couple girls catcalled them.
