Boom, boom, da, da, da. I woke up to the beat of next door's club music. I looked at my iPhone 3G, 4:01 AM. I felt drained. This group of young boys and girls moved in about three weeks ago. I often see them going out when I am getting in from training and they always arrive home at early hours in the morning. They would then stay up for another few hours and I was growing increasingly frustrated at how loud they would play their music, it was as if they were trying to wake me up. I dropped my phone back on top of my jeans on the floor and pulled the quilt over my body as my head fell back to the pillow. I looked to the ceiling, I knew it was going to be another night in which I would miss out on valuable sleep.
After lying there for nearly an hour trying to force myself to sleep, I stood up. I walked quickly and quite angrily to the fridge and grabbed myself a small glass of pure orange juice. I downed it and then put on my jeans and t-shirt which I had on the day before. I also put on a pair of socks and just before I stepped out the door I punched the wall of the annoying neigbours with a massive amount of force. I walked out the door and closed it over. I then quietly knocked on the neighbours door trying not to appear too animated. I waited for twenty seconds or so before I knocked a little harder. Again, no answer. If anything the music seemed to get louder. I then hit the door four times, as hard as I could and the door was answered before I hit it the fifth time. A young lad answered, he was no older than twenty. He was quite tall, about 6'2. He looked at me as if I was a nobody.
'What's your problem?' He said it to me, expecting me to walk back into my house.
'You and your music, I can't sleep lad, can't you turn it off and go to bed? It's five o'clock in the morning'. I tried not to sound too angry, trying to make the lad understand.
'Not cool man', that was all he said before he tried to slam the door in my face. I stopped the door with my foot, it hurt a little as I never put any footwear on. I then barged the door with my shoulder. The lad fell against the wall and I then pushed the door and grabbed the lad by the back of the neck of his t-shirt. I picked him up, tearing his top a little by the neck. Then I pushed him as hard as I could, trying to look powerful. I felt like Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator. The lads looked as if they feared me. There was three of them sitting there, one had a cigarette in his mouth, he looked at me.
'What do you want man, turn around, walk away'.
'I want your to turn that ******* racket off, you little idiot', I replied, I felt the anger growing and I was starting to shake now.
'Here you go', the lad had the remote and I thought he was going to turn the volume down, instead he turned it up.
'What? I said turn it dow...n'
I opened my eyes. I was lying in a bathroom. I was wondering what was going on. I was a little scared, remembering what had gone on a few hours previously. I stood up slowly, feeling a massive shot of pain go through my thigh. I looked into the mirror. I had a massive gash going from my eyebrow to the edge of my hairline. I felt the shooting pain go through my thigh again, so I lifted that leg up to stop the pain. Then I fell. My knee gave way and I knew I was in trouble. I lied back on the floor and used the bath to lift myself off the ground. It took me a while to get my stance back but I managed to walk to the bathroom door. I was aware that the young lads could still be on the other side. Therefore I opened it slowly. I looked around. No-one was there. Then as quick as I could I moved to the door and left...
