So, there we were, Taylor and I, watching TV and doing other things couples do, when all of a sudden we hear yelling and screaming coming from outside. It took a minute to register what was going on, but then we realized that a man and woman were outside my house arguing. Now, the neighborhood I live in is a peaceful neighborhood, but it's right on the border of a not-so-nice neighborhood, so occasionally people will cross over and start some trouble. Matter of fact, just a few weeks ago, someone was shot just around the block from me by a couple kids from the bordering neighborhood, so needless to say, when you hear arguing or fighting going on outside, you stay inside and call the police.

Well, I didn't want to call the police right away just in case it was an innocent argument that happens to be getting a little loud. Taylor and I snuck up to my front window and peeked out from behind the curtains. It was my next-door neighbors. Just as we looked out, the man slaps his wife. He hit her so hard, she literally spun around and hit the ground. Taylor immediately runs outside to try and stop them, but I grab her arm and keep her from going out there. Who knows if this asshole would hit her too. I grab my cell phone and called the police.

Not 2 minutes later, 2 patrol cars come flying around the corner and screech to a stop right in front of the house where the husband and wife are still fighting. I decide it's safe enough to go outside. We step out on the porch as two of the four officers flip this guy through the air and jump on top of him to handcuff him. Another one of the officers comes over to my house after seeing us on the porch to see if we were the ones who called. We talked to him and told him everything we saw, he thanked us and left.

As they were dragging this guy to the back of the patrol car, he yells out...

"None of this would be happening if it wasn't for you fucking dykes."

I could not help but laugh. First of all, it sounded like the end of an episode of Scooby Doo where they take the mask off the supposed ghost or monster, and the guy masquerading as the ghost says...

"...and I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for you meddling kids!"

I was in tears. Yeah, buddy, it was our fault you hit your wife, and you would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for us.

Second, he has no idea that we are actually dating. As far as he knows, Taylor is just a good friend who comes over a lot. I think it's hilarious when people assume things like that, especially when his only evidence as him seeing a girl come over all the time and her car staying parked in front of my house till the next morning. Girls have sleepovers, even when they are 24 and 26. But, he is right, he just doesn't know it. And it's funny that they usually only do it when they are the ones who look like a dumbass at that moment in time. I think they say shit like that just to try and make themselves look not as bad. To save face, in other words.

What an interesting series of events. And to think, I would have missed it if we had gone to the club. I wonder what would have happened to that poor woman if we weren't there to call the police? I'm sure someone else would have. I hope. But I love scandals like this. I can't wait to discuss with my other neighbors what the married couple was fighting about. I love speculating, but I hope someone knows for sure what it was, and I hope it's juicy so I can share it with you guys.
