"farewell, love" he whispered lovingly in my ear, his breath cold against my still heated skin. I couldn't react, too much in shock, so he just smirked, kissed me lightly on the forehead, before walking out the door, closing it with a barely audible 'click'. I listened carefully, waiting until I heard his weary footsteps as he made his way to his own room down the hallway before finally hearing the 'click' of his own door. That's when I cracked, large streams of tears making their way down my face as sobs racked my sides, making them ache. But I couldn't stop the molten liquid from trailing down my face, not deliberately anyway, so all I could do was wait until I tired myself out enough. Sure enough, after another 5 minutes, I was so tired I felt faint, but, still having some dignity, I limped over to the other side of my room, wincing when I bent over to gather my clothes. When I straightened out again, I just happened to catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and couldn't hold back a wince. My eyes were rimmed red, my cheekbones sunk in, and my hair looked like crap, trailing about halfway down my back in my new hairspray-free lifestyle. Even worse was how the rest of me looked. You could practically see my ribcage! But, I couldn't let my teammates see me like this. I knew I was going to have to go out sometime, but I was afraid of their reactions, so I just kept in my room, curled up on my bed crying when I thought no one could hear me. Putting my clothes back on, I gingerly went back under the covers, purring from the warmth it omitted. 'Why did I let him hurt me like this?' I had to wonder to myself as I clutched to blanket closer to my body. The answer was simple. I loved him, and he loved me. 'You know that's not true.' A menacingly icy voice echoed in my head, making me gasp and new tears to form, knowing it to be true. I was delusional. But I couldn't leave. I craved for his love, reached for it, still believing my grandfather that I was unlovable, a FREAK.
Sometimes I wondered why I let him treat me like this, why I never just left, but really, I already knew in my heart.
It was because I couldn't leave.
Same as usual, please drop a review and let me know what you think! :D
