Want me hold the bag?" Cooper said from behind me. Never slowing my punches, I muttered, "Not really." Cooper took the bag like I knew he would and held it still. "We should talk." "Then talk." "You're into my sister," he said then continued after I remained quiet, "You were into my girl. You seem to have a thing for my stuff." "I'm telling Bailey you said she's your stuff," I grunted, punching harder. "I suspect she'll kick you in the balls." "She thinks she's your second choice." "I know, but she's wrong." "You wanted Farah." "I liked Farah. She was my second choice. I wanted Bailey." Cooper said nothing while I pounded on the bag. Finally, he shoved it back at me. "Why did you fuck with me that day if you didn't want Farah?" "Because you're an asshole and I don't back down to assholes," I said, taking a break. I grabbed my bottle of water and downed half of it. When I looked back at Cooper, he was frowning in a weird way. "Wait, did you not know you were an asshole? I just assumed someone must have mentioned it before." Cooper rolled his dark eyes. "You're an idiot. I could have killed you that day." "So?" "So you would have died for a chick you didn't want." "No, I would have died standing up to an asshole." "I saw you always looking at Farah." "She seemed overwhelmed by college. I was looking out for her. She's hot, but she's not Bailey." Cooper clearly wasn't convinced. "If you wanted Bailey, why wait so long? I think you're full of shit." "Because you're an asshole. Guys like you have shit handed to them. Guys like me have to work for what we want." "And you want Bailey." "She's mine. I just haven't sealed the deal yet. If you want to fight for her, fine. I should warn you that I'm stronger than I was last year. It'll take more to beat me." Cooper grinned. "You hurt my sister and I won't kick your ass, Nick. I'll feed you to my fucking dogs." "Fair enough. Did you want something else?
