*Bret & Carissa Pt. 9*



CC had said,
"Well, look what we have here...one of the suckiest guitar players in Hollywood, that's lost his woman to the singer of the best band in 50 States !" Bret under his breath said,
"Oh shit-" as Tish & Rissa backed up, Jesse swung at CC, Jesse's friend Craig started swinging, things became a blur, Billy & Bret were in the middle of things,
Jesse had 4 friends with him, this girl that was there with Rikki, was freaking out, Tish frowned, telling her to get a God damned grip,
they stood there and watched as fists flew, eventually Bret and Jesse were at it, Billy was at it with Derek, Lynn's boyfriend, and singer of Jesses band, Carissa put her head in her hands, not wanting to watch, Tish said,
"Don't worry Carissa, Billy and the guys know how to fight-" she shook her head,
"Jesse and his friends don't fight fair- Something bad is going to happen-" Tish frowned, going inside, Carissa looked up, Jesse was pulling out a chain,
she yelled and ran out,trying to get in the middle of him & Bret, the chain swung around her arm, hurting like all hell, suddenly, there was a gun fire, and everyone froze-
They all turned and looked, Tish was standing there with a gun, holding it in the air, Billy said,
"Oh Christ !" Tish said,
"All you fuckers leave now, I'm not afraid to use this thing on anyone- My daddy taught me well-" Bret pulled Carissa away from Jesse, untwisting the chain and throwing it on the ground- Jesse said,
"Rissa, you need to leave with me-" she frowned, shaking her head,
"No, I told you, it's over-" he stared at her,
"You're just making it worse, this isn't over...None of it-" Billy, Rikki & CC stood there, waiting for the others to get in their car and leave, Tish was still holding the gun, & said,
"I suggest you assholes leave now, my patiece is running thin-" Jesse gave Carissa and Bret a look and told the others to get in the car & they left- Billy went over to Tish, kissing her,
"Leave it to my baby to bring out the big guns !! You're awesome babe-" she looked at him,
"And you're bloody-" she looked around, "You're all bloody- Well shit !" they got them in the house & cleaned them up as good as they could, cuts & bruises they couldn't do anything about-
Carissa had a killer bruise around her arm from the chain, plus the one from before when Jesse had grabbed her, Bret frowned,
"What's that bruise from ?" she looked down at it,
"Jesse grabbed my arm when I was trying to leave the other day-" Bret looked at the others, CC said,
"That's a coward of a man to use force on a lady ! Get his ass back here & let's kick it all over again !" CC had one of those voices that was raspy and could be real irratating if he went on & on, which he was doing- Billy & Bret traded looks, Tish came over and checked it out, saying
"Carissa, he's a good looking guy, but what an asshole. What the hell were you doing with him anyway ?" Craissa shrugged,
"He can be real sweet, and had me fooled-" she paused, "I'm not going to be fooled again- No more relationships for awhile-" Billy raised his eyebrows at Bret & Tish, asking,
"So what's going on with you & Bret ?" she smiled at Bret,
"We agreed to have fun, but no expectations or commitments-" Billy looked at Tish, starting to say something, she flipped him off & said,
"One word and you're dead-" he smiled,
"Just fucking around baby-" CC asked,
"Are we gonna jam, or forget about it ? I'm ready to fucking play !" the guys were a bit battered, but went ahead and played, Billy had to be ready for the shows on Friday and Saturday.
Carissa sat with Tish & Stacy, Tish very obviously had no patience with Stacy, she was an airhead, and that drove Tish nuts- She leaned over to Carissa, whispering,
"I'm so glad you aren't like most the girls Bret & the guys bring around- It's be nice if Bret hung onto you-" Carissa knew better than that-
this band was on it's way up, a steady girlfriend wasn't going to be part of the plan- and she wasn't about to be in another one sided relationship-
She knew Bret was loved by the ladies, she wasn't full of any great expectations-
The guys sounded good, Billy had no problem fitting in- he listened to them practice enough, he knew the tunes-
Carissa got back to work the next day, Lynn called and wanted to know what the hell had happened, since her boyfriend Derek had been part of the fight-
Rissa told her the story, which pissed Lynn off, she didn't like Derek around Jesse anyway, this just made the way she felt about him worse. She told Rissa she'd see her at the loft later that night & they hung up-
When Carissa entered the loft that night, Jesse was there, getting his things together- he gave her a look,
"I hope you're happy. Ya get what ya wanted ?" she stood by the door,
"What I didn't want was you screwing around on me-" he cut her off, laughing sarcasticlly,
"If you think that pansy ass pretty boy is going to be faithful, you're blind as fucking hell !" she frowned,
"He's not my boyfriend, so there's no reason for him to be faithful-" he stared,
"No way- You aren't just fucking around with him-?" she shrugged,
"Seems like the way things are done- I won't get hurt that way-" he sighed,
"Rissa, none of the others meant shit, I love you, you're the one I want-" she shook her head,
"If you felt that way, there wouldn't have been any others-" as an after thought, "Or any lies-" he sighed, wanting her to understand,
"Rissa, come on, we can work this out if you forget about the pussy boy-" she was getting pissed,
"Stop talking shit about him, he's a nice guy, and he doesn't make false promises-" she looked around, "Do you have your things ?" he picked up the couple boxes he had filled,
"Yeah, this is it-" she held out her hand,
"I want my keys-" he shook his head,
"Nope, not giving ya those-" she wasn't going to fight, she'd just have the locks changed,
"Goodbye Jesse-" he didn't answer, just slammed out the door- she leaned against it, sliding to the floor, crying-
Even tho she knew she'd done the right thing, but it hurt like hell, because she did love him-
