Victoria with her. Chrissy looked
very angry, and she was pulling Victoria along very roughly. When
they reached the pavement, Chrissy swung Victoria around and pushed
her away from the bar. She used quite a lot of force, and Victoria
tottered quickly forward on her heels, fell over a chair and
sprawled on the floor.
Louise
instantly rushed forward to help her up. She was shocked and
embarrassed, and very worried about Victoria, but Chrissy was still
angry. She ignored the gathering crowd and stood over Victoria,
shouting at her.
“You can’t
leave it alone, can you? You have to get drunk and ruin everything!
I warned you! I told you not to piss about, but you just couldn’t
help yourself, could you?”
Victoria pouted
as Louise held her in her arms. “I’m only having a bit of fun,
Chrissy! I didn’t mean it! Really I didn’t! Don’t hate me!”
“It’s not fun!
It’s malicious! And hurtful! And I’ve had enough of it, and
you!”
Louise couldn’t
help defending Victoria. “Don’t be so hard on her, Chrissy.”
“Don’t
interfere!” Chrissy snapped at Louise. “You don’t know what she’s
like!”
“But what’s she
done?”
“Got Scott into
a fight by causing trouble like usual! She’s always stirring it!
She’s a pain in the arse!” Then Chrissy turned back to Victoria and
shouted, “You’re a slut, Victoria Kenyon! A drunken slut!”
Victoria
immediately responded. “And you’re a stuck up cow!”
“Slag!”
“Bitch!”
“Ah, go back to
Zach! Maybe you’re drunk enough to let him shag you now!”
Victoria dived
at Chrissy, screaming, “Shut up! Shut up!”
The crowd
cheered at the start of the fight, but Chrissy was stronger and far
less drunk, and there was little more than a quick scuffle before
Victoria ended up on the floor again. It was all a bit of an
anti-climax.
“That’s where
you belong!” Chrissy told her. “In the gutter!”
“Bitch!”
Victoria wailed as Louise went to her aid for a second time.
Jo and Max
emerged from the bar. “What’s going on?” Max asked.
“Ah, get lost,
the lot of you!” Chrissy replied and stormed off.
Victoria
climbed to her feet. She was suddenly tearful. Louise hung on to
her as she staggered after Chrissy.
“Chrissy! Don’t
go! I didn’t mean it!” she begged.
“Drop dead!”
Chrissy called back.
Scott now
appeared. He looked dishevelled and he was covered in beer. He was
also just as angry as Chrissy. He went straight to Victoria,
grabbed her and demanded, “What’s the matter with you? Do you hate
me, or what?”
Victoria
shrugged him off, her face twisted in anger. “Chrissy doesn’t need
you! You only want to get in her knickers! Why don’t you get
lost!”
Scott didn’t
reply. He just slapped Victoria and she fell over again. The crowd
cheered as Scott hurried after Chrissy.
Louise went to
help Victoria for a third time, and Jo, Max, Angela and Andy all
gathered round. The five of them quickly got Victoria back on her
feet again. They moved away from the bar, heading down Deansgate.
They left the crowd and the bar behind them, the fight already
forgotten.
Louise had her
arm around Victoria again, helping her as she staggered along. She
had lost one shoe somewhere back at the bar, and one side of her
face was now bright red. Angela and Andy both looked worried, while
Jo kept pestering Victoria about what had happened.
“What did you
do this time?” Jo asked her.
“I didn’t do
anything!” Victoria moaned.
“Were you
stirring it with Chrissy and Scott?”
Victoria’s
expression turned nasty again. “He’s a shit! Pawing all over her!
He wouldn’t leave her alone!”
Max was
instantly offended. “That’s my brother you’re talking about! I’m
not standing for this! Let’s go home, Jo!” He tried to pull Jo
away, but she resisted.
“I’m not going
yet, it’s too early! I want to go to a club!”
“I’m not going
anywhere with her!” Max said.
“Well, you go
home then! I
very angry, and she was pulling Victoria along very roughly. When

“It’s not fun!
It’s malicious! And hurtful! And I’ve had enough of it, and
you!”
Louise couldn’t

“Don’t
