I knew that they had just been through a fight and that there was nothing but friendship going on between the two of them but still...he had his hands on her and I was struggling to maintain composure."Hey, Peter? Can you get your hands off my girlfriend? I need to talk to her." I said trying to make me voice seem light but I was failing.Suddenly Layla looked at me and pulled away.

POV FinnI let out a sigh of relief at the end of the meeting. It had gone well and I felt like Layla would be safer now. I frowned when I saw her dancing with Sally again. I wasn't ok with the whole gang watching my girlfriend grind on my best friend. If I had a problem with this, there was no way that either of them could do the Watchmen intiation dance. I would lose it. I looked around and noticed that Gunner and Spike were practically drooling. Nope, I needed to stop this now. I walked over to Keri who was sitting at the bar."Do you think that you could help me break this up?" I asked and she nodded. She looked pissed as well. She called for Sally and she came over."What's up, Ker?" Sally asked."Can I get another, please?" Keri asked coolly"Sure, babe" Sally started making the drink as Layla worked the other end of the bar. I relaxed and grinned at Keri."Thanks, Keri." I said and she nodded. I went to the other side of the bar and slid up behind Layla."Need some help?" I whi

Marissa said sarcastically.I smiled and said, "You look lovely too, Marissa.""Thank you" She said with a grin."What about me?" Leo asked."What about you?" I shot back and we chuckled.
