SEXUAL ASSAULT TRIGGER WARNING
CHAPTER 5- CLOSE FRIENDS
El's POV
"What are you doing here Troy, I thought you were in jail." I said kind of afraid of the fact that Mike could be walking in at any moment.
"Well, after your dad arrested me my dad's attorney helped me get out on bail." Troy said stepping into the room.
"Well, you have to leave you can't stay here." I said getting more and more nervous as he inched closer.
"No actually I'm not going anywhere, since daddy put me in jail it's only right you make it up to me." Troy said now pushing me down on my bed.
I began to scream hoping that someone would hear me and come to help. Troy covered my mouth and I felt helpless.
Mike's POV
I was walking up El's driveway when I heard her scream, I dropped everything in my hands and followed the commotion up the stairs. When I got upstairs, I saw El struggling with a hooded figure on top of her so I sprung into action.
El's POV
I had closed my eyes and conceded that I was about to become a victim of sexual assault. As I sat there with my eyes closed, he stopped and I heard things being knocked over in my room. I slowly opened my eyes and that's when I saw it. Mike had come to my rescue, he was actually standing up to his biggest bully and I've never felt more special than I did right there in that moment. Although he was putting up a good fight Mike was still struggling against Troy so I managed to slip out of the room and go into my dad's and grab his shotgun. I walked back into the room to see Mike actually getting a couple of good hits in on Troy. It felt good to watch but I had to break this up before Mike seriously got himself hurt.
"Hey, get off of him right now!" I yelled and cocked the shotgun to really get their attention.
They both looked up and were both looking scared out of their minds.
"You have ten seconds to get the fuck out of my house!" I yelled as Mike started to head for the door. Sometimes he could be so dumb.
"Not you Mike, you stay put while I get you an ice pack and Troy, I'm not going to say it again." I said as Mike stayed put and Troy rushed out of my room to the front door.
I went back to my dad's room to put the shotgun away and headed downstairs to get Mike and icepack. As I was making the icepack I just kept wondering why. Why Mike would care so much about me, why Mike would take a beatdown, and why Mike would help someone who used to stand by and watch him get bullied get better grades. As I started to think back to all the times I've seen Mike when he's just himself not having to worry about a bully it hit me, he's just a sweet person. Carrying in all the groceries for his mother, playing outside with his little sister, and standing up to anyone who crossed his friends. It made me feel good to know that I now had a friend like Mike. I brought myself out of my thoughts because I was done making his icepack and was heading back upstairs to bring it to him. When I got back upstairs, I saw Mike trying to fix up my room and put things back in place.
"If I didn't know any better, I'd say you've been in here before." I said teasing him as I motioned for him to sit on the bed.
"Nope just have a good memory." Mike said unfazed by my comment.
"Can I ask you a question?" I said kind of nervous.
"Shoot and I don't mean literally, that shotgun was huge." Mike said with a grin on his face
"Why did you defend me?" I asked and for once out of all our interactions I was the one blushing.
"Well, no woman deserves that, their bodies are temples and no man should be able to force themselves onto them, and the fact that it was you added a lot more fuel to the fire." Mike said looking me in the eyes.
I decided to take the icepack off of his hand and give it a light kiss.
"There now it should heal in no time." I said making eye contact again.
I don't know why but making eye contact with Mike made me feel uneasy. I tried to look away but Mike turned my head back towards him like he had wanted to do something but decided against it. Frustrated I pushed Mike down onto the bed and kissed him with so much passion and desire. Mike hands made their way to my waist and in this moment, I felt safer than I have ever felt before. As the kiss got hotter Mike licked my lips begging for entrance and I granted him that while also putting my hands on top of his urging them to go lower. He moved my hands off of his and his hands went lower and squeezed my ass. I let out an involuntary moan and as things really started to get heated, I heard a car door slam.
"Mike stop, I think my dad is here." I said with a bitterness because in that moment stopping was the last thing I wanted to do.
I got from on top of Mike and fixed my hair and clothes when I realized Mike had a more visual issue that couldn't be fixed in a few seconds or at least I hoped so. What am I saying, now is not the time for another hormonal episode.
"Mike, I say this not to embarrass you but to inform you that you have a boner so either hide it or make it go away." I said now getting nervous.
We heard the door open and I could visibly see Mike panic.
"El I'm home." My dad yelled out to me.
"Uhh I'm just up here with a friend studying." I yelled back knowing Mike was frozen in fear.
"You normally don't bring friends over, I'll come up to say hi." My dad yelled back.
I could hear each step and Mike's problem was still unresolved until an idea hit me.
