Chapter 12: What are you doing here?
He asked in a deep voice, arching a perfectly groomed thick brow at him. Without a single warning, he raised his clenched fist, ready to swing down on Blake's face.
I watched as Blake squeezed his eyes shut, like the coward he was, but Xavier's fist stopped a mere few inches away from his jaw, never touching him. A smirk started to form on Xavier's lips as he looked at Blake's pathetic face, a low chuckle left his lips as if to taunt him.
"That's what I thought," Xavier murmured in a deep voice.
Stella rushed forward to pull Blake away from Xavier. No matter how much she tried to hide it, I could still see a hint of fear swimming in her eyes. "Come on, Blake, let's get out of here," she urged as she continued to pull him. She then turned to look at Xavier and I with clear disdain on her face. "We don't want to shop at this store anyway!"
Xavier placed his hand over his chest, where his heart would be at. "Aw, really? What a shame that I have to lose such a valuable customer," he commented, feigning hurt as his voice was dripping with sarcasm.
"Hmph!" Stella stomped her foot and pulled a speechless Blake out of the store together with her.
Xavier turned to look at me with a smile sitting on his face as he extended his hand towards me.
"Come on, let's go shop elsewhere."
