Behind Closed Doors
Chapter 1
If someone would ask me what my biggest regret was I would say it was meeting him. I met him at hood night which should have been one of my best memories. I should have went with my first instincts that I had that night but I didn't. He showed interest in me unlike many others people did. I act like nothing bothers me I even call myself Fat Amy but things bother me I just don't show it. He seemed so nice and sweet to me to start out. He would buy me flowers and candy things that made all of the girls jealous. Things gradually started to change. He started commenting on my weight, my clothes, my looks, and even where I was. When Aubrey asked my why I had Bumpers's number I couldn't tell her it was because I had to call him constantly to check in with him. He insisted that he knew where I was and who I was with at all times. I couldn't tell anyone what was going on. How could I tell them what was going on when I acted like I was tough and that nothing could bother me. All of the girls would know how weak I really was. Bumper tells me all of the time how pathetic and weak I am if I told the girls it would really be true.
I was so glad that we hadn't moved into the Bella's House yet I would never have been able to hide what happened. It had only been yelling and screaming insults at me until today. Bella's practice ran late today so I was rushing out of practice when I saw him coming from around the corner of one of the buildings on campus. "Do you know what time it is? Where have you been? Better yet who have you been with." I tried to tell him. "Bumper you know I had Bella's practice today. We ran late and I am just getting out of practice." Before I knew what was happening he grabbed me by my arm pulling me between two buildings on campus. I quickly glanced around but I couldn't see anyone. He pushed me against the wall forcefully grabbing my upper arms and banging my head against the brick wall. I could see his face turn red and his eyes turned furious as he yelled at me. "I have told you before you are to call me or tell me where you are and if you are going to be late. How many times do I have to tell you before it gets though that thick stupid skull of yours?" It was like I was frozen and everything was in slow motion. I could see him raise his hand and before I knew it I felt the impact of his fist on my face. It took me by surprise he had yelled at me many times but had never hit me until today. It seemed to have taken him by surprise as well because no sooner than he had hit me he released my arms and stepped back his face looking apologetic. "Amy I am so sorry. I didn't mean to do that. You know I love you so much I just get worried when I don't know where you are. I promise it won't happen again. Let me make it up to you this weekend I will take you out to dinner." I quickly nodded my head. "Um sure I guess but Bumper I really need to get going to finish some work in my classes." Bumper stepped aside and I made a quick exit back to my room. After I got back to my dorm room, I went into the bathroom to look in the mirror. I stared at my reflection in the mirror inspecting the damage. I could see the bruise already starting to form on my cheek. I was so glad that we hadn't moved into the Bella's House yet I would never have been able to hide what happened. I could see the tears running down my face wondering how I got here. I couldn't recognize the person staring back at me in the mirror. As the old saying says no one knows what goes on behind closed doors. Those words are completely true,
I had spent most of the next day in bed sleeping. I woke up later in the afternoon to my alarm beeping telling me it was time to get ready for Bella's practice. I stood in front of the mirror making sure I put enough makeup on to cover the bruise on my cheek hoping no one would notice. I saw the hand prints left on my arms and knew that I would have to wear a long-sleeved shirt to cover them. As soon as I was finished I getting ready I rushed to get to practice on time. After everything that had happened, I definitely didn't need Aubrey to get mad at me for being late to practice.
I made it through the doors of the practice room just in time. I had a hard time paying attention during practice and Aubrey noticed and started yelling at the end of practice. "Fat Amy what are you doing? Have you been listening and paying attention at all today?" Luckily no one noticed me flinching at all of the yelling. "I'm sorry Aubrey I just had a lot of classwork and was up late studying last night." Aubrey just shook her head mumbling an unintelligible response as she walked away, Beca gave me a look as she walked over to me. "Are you sure everything is okay Amy? You looked really distracted today. You know you can talk to me about anything." I faked a smile at her and lied. "Of course, Beca you are talking to Fat Amy I have wrestled crocodiles and didn't even break a sweat." Beca just smiled and shook her head as we all exited the practice room.
