Julian eyes blaze with a mix of anger and possessiveness.
Miles, still leaning in, straightened, his expression unreadable.
"What the fuck?" Julian growled at first staring at the both lads.
Then Miles sighed walking toward him but a punch landed on his jaw making him shift back.
"Dude!" Miles yelled, touching his jaw and Julian almost lost it again, that scene replying in his head as raised Miles ready to punch him again.
Astrid's eyes widened, and her hands instinctively ran toward Julian pulling him away,
"Julian, no!" she cried, her voice laced with alarm.
But Julian didn't listen, He swung his fist, again barely missing Miles' jaw.
Miles didn't flinch this time, his gaze locked onto Julian's. Astrid rushed forward, blocking Julian's next punch.
"Stop! It's nothing, Julian!" she pleaded.
Julian's chest heaved, his breathing ragged. "Are you saying I was blind!" his anger emanated, as his gaze met that of Miles.
