“Did you think I’d like seeing that incest cunt making you cum under the table? Huh? No girlfriend of mine will behave this way. You will be ready tonight by eight for dinner, whether you like it, or not.” He says through gritted teeth.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Please, just let me go.” I cry out but that just eggs him on.
“Don’t fucking lie to me, Riley. I saw her hands up your skirt.” He spits, applying so much pressure that I’m terrified he’s going to break my cheek bone.The need to get away from him, and fast, is causing me to think impulsively. I just want to get away. Fuck.
He pushes me against the brick wall again before releasing my face. I spin and knee him in the nuts, trying to run but I don’t get any further than two steps before I’m yanked back by my ponytail and dragged back towards him. This time, he rears back, punching me in the cheek. I scream as I try to cover my face and get away from him, but it’s no use. He just hits me again until I fall to the ground holding my face as I curl into a ball on the cold concrete.
“Please, stop! Jake, I’m so sorry, I’ll be ready by eight, I swear. Just please don’t hit me again.” I whimper, sounding so fucking pathetic.
“Why do you make me do this to you? You better be ready later or this will only get fucking worse.” He spits, leaving me on the ground.
Once I know he’s gone, I pick myself up off the floor and wipe my tears away, which is when I notice the blood. Throwing my hood up, I quickly walk across campus in the freezing cold to the shuttle.I don’t want the others to see me like this. I’m afraid of what Ash will do if he finds out what Jake has been doing to me.
Hopefully, they will stay out long enough for me to cover up the destruction of Jake. I need to just get back to the dorms and get in the shower to wash the bullshit away.I don’t know if I’m just a dumb bitch, in fucking shock or what? But I still can’t believe he laid hands on me. It’s like he’s a completely different person.
It doesn’t take long to get to the shuttle bus, and before I know it, I’ve arrived safely at my dorm. Unlocking the door, I step in and notice it’s silent. I let out a breath I didn’t realize I was holding.
Heading to my room, I strip off my clothes and lock my bedroom door. I have two hours to shower and get ready for dinner with a monster.How the fuck am I supposed to tell Ash and Peyton that I’m summoned to dinner with Jake? I don’t want to fucking lie. I’m no liar, but fuck, I’m not left with any other fucking choice.
Stepping into the bathroom, I turn the shower on and wait for it to get hot. I catch my reflection in the mirror and gasp, bringing my hand up to cover my mouth.
Tears stream down my face and I wince as the salty liquid hits the cuts on my left cheek. It looks like a burn from a road rash. There’s dried blood under my nose and in the crease of my lip. My cheek on the right side is red and already bruising.Fuck. I’m a mess. Maybe if I leave before they get back, I won’t have to say anything. No, that’s not going to work. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
Walking over to the shower, I get in and hiss at how much my face hurts when the water hits my cheek.Shit, he really got me good.I stay here under the hot spray long after I’ve washed myself just staring at the tile wall.
After the water has run cold, I hop out and get ready, praying to the man above that Peyton and Ash don’t come home until I can at least cover my face with makeup.
An hour later, I’m ready to leave. There’s no sign of Asher or Peyton. I know he has swim practice after classes considering he’s got a meet this weekend, but Peyton, I’m not sure where she is. I rummage through my phone and see I have a slew of texts.
Peyton: Bluebird. I’ll be home at nine. I forgot to tell you I had a late study sesh on Tuesdays.
Me: We need a group thread with all of us in it.
Not exactly what I should’ve said, but I’d rather only have to say something once. Switching over to Ash’s messages, the first thing I see is his dick. Jesus, this man is insatiable, but I tilt my head and admire it for a second before moving on to the actual text.
Asher: I can’t wait to come home to you, Cupcake. It will be a late one. If you fall asleep, I’ll wake you up with my tongue.
Seems like I may get away with this after all. Switching over to the next thread.
Vikki: Hey girl, just checking in. I hope you had a wonderful Winter Break. Are you done with your cycle yet so we can go check out that club?
I’ll message her later. I really just don’t feel like shooting the shit with her. After closing out of her message, I see I have one more. Last but not least, the monster.
Jake: Are you ready yet?
Me: I am.
Jake: I’m heading there now. Be waiting for me in the lobby.
Me: Ok.
Switching over to my settings, I put my phone on silent before grabbing my coat and scarf, shutting the door quietly as I leave my bedroom. I slide my feet into my boots and head out of the dorm to the elevators. I really should’ve told them I was going out.What if Jake kills me or something? No one will ever be able to find my body or know who is responsible for my murder.
Arriving in the lobby, I wait, and wait, and wait. Just when I think he did this on purpose, arms wrap around me from behind, and I lean into his embrace.
“Are you ready for dinner, Riley, baby?” His voice purrs in my ear and my body goes rigid. Why would I have ever thought it was Ash holding me like this?
I’m just a delusional bitch who’s caught between reality and a fantasy world.
