Chapter Ten

"M-my outfit i-is o-ok" my voice cracked... I hate how he makes me feel so vulnerable.

    "I'm j-just going to g-go see the g-girls" i tried to walk past him and run but as soon as I reached the stairs he grabbed my arm.

   "Don't go yet, let's stay here''.

  " i-i have t..." He cut me off slamming his lips on mine, sucking my bottom lip, i tried to push him off but I couldn't, I was weak...but I didn't stop..

i kept pushing him until he backed off my lips and grabbed my left arm.

     The hand cream I used definitely worked because I slid from his tight grip, something i had used once before..i ran down the stairs as fast as I could until I was outside...I thought he would grab me again... I hid behind a mini van I saw parked near by , waiting for him to just jump behind me.

    I couldn't stop the river of tears flooding down and staining my cheeks, I don't know why is this happening to me I've done nothing wrong in my life to deserve it..I brought a weak hand to my cheek wiping the flood of tears and trying to control any more of them

   I waited for five minutes and when I stood up I saw Kathy on the front porch of the house  two doors away, I walked to her pretending that everything was alright.

   "Oh my god Amelia!'' She ran towards me and hugged me tightly , Kathy was white as snow with little blush on her cheeks and cherry red lips not to mention her gold locks that reached her lower back... Practically an angel.

     " hey Kathy'' I tried to be as warm as I could but I just couldn't.

   "Is something wrong? You look a bit off'' she questioned me with worried eyes..she was the closest thing I had to a sister, we were at the same age so we connected quite well.

     " it's just school stuff, don't worry about it" I replied hoping that she'd believe me... surprisingly she did , "I knoowww! Life is just harrrddd" , I was glad to have someone think the same way I did.

    ''Come on Lia let's go inside..the barbecue will start in fifteen minutes! " so it was a barbecue! My clothes were perfect for it ...but I knew well enough that he just wanted to catch me undressing, the thought alone sent shivers down my spine.
