âLetâs not get angry. Letâs calmly and sensibly take this outside so I can ruin your face.â Ted to Sam?
God Iâve been eager to do this one. Samâs an asshole, a hypocritical asshole. Just wait.

It was a bar, he was in a bar.
Ted had to remind himself of his surroundings because all he could see was red and that stupid, goddamn look on Samâs face.
âHey! Asshole!â He called to the bar, and both the bartender and the officer looked his way. Ted had a snarl on his face as he kept pacing towards the other man. Sam squinted until he got a clear view and then a flare of anger went up in him as he recognized the other man. âStrong words from a homewrecker, Ted.â He shot back. âStrong words from an abusive husband.â Ted shot right back, louder intentionally. Heads further began to turn at that accusation, and ted could at least know half of hatchetfield would hear by tomorrow morning. Itâs all he could hope for. Samâs curls flew around as Sam whipped his head back and forth to see the rooms attention shift, and swore at the fact.
âShut the fuck up, scumbag.â The officer hisses to Ted and Ted just laughs, it comes out accidentally and it sounds oh so bitter. âScumbag? Thatâs fucking rich, Sam, thatâs rich coming from-â âenough fancy talk assholeâ Sam interrupted and from the burning eyes all around them ted knew why. Ted wasnât going to be able to tell the truth, Sam wouldnât let that much get out. âI have half the mind to shut you up.â The married man told ted warningly, anger bristling from his head to his toes, ready to jump out of his seat. Ted noticed. He also could not back down now.
The man who was truly in love with Charlotte took a solid second to take a good look around the innocent and concerned faces in the room around him. ďżźânow officer, letâs not get angry...â Tedâs eyes found their way back to Sam, some kind of fire in them. âLetâs calmly and sensibly take this outside so I can ruin your face.â His words were met with the immediate sound of Sam standing straight out of his chair. He slammed it back towards the bar, taking a few more steps towards Ted. He speaks, his fatal mistake.
âYou think Iâm not gonna beat the shit out of you, too? You donât look much stronger than Charlotte.â
And Ted sees red once more as he lunges for Samâs throat.
