Chapter Seven 'Locked Up'
Bella finally learned that Kirk had gone missing and she couldn't believe it. Though her dad did hear something in the papers about a lot of killings in Seatle. Bella had been doing great with Paul with the usual couple tension here and there. Paul on the other hand wasn't like the people Bella was hanging around with due to the fact most of them were guys. The girl she did hang around with he figured were just sluts trying to take Bella away from her. He couldn't have that happen. Bella woke up that morning to go to school but he stopped her. "What are you doing?" Bella asked looking at him.
"Changing the locks," Paul said. "Its getting to dangerous out there for you," he said.
"How am I suppose to get out?" Bella asked looking at him.
"You won't," Paul said standing up. "Don't worry about school anymore," he said. "I am getting more money with my promotion," he said looking over at her.
"What?" Bella asked. "What about my school?" She asked looking at her.
"You don't need school anymore," Paul said sternly. "I am your life now," he said firmly.
"No," Bella said. "This isn't fair," she said causing him to grip her arm.
"What isn't fair is you making me crazy," Paul said gripping his arm tighter. "Now," he said letting her go and going back to the door. "I will be at work todays," he said. "So I want dinner when I get back," he said in a firm voice and headed out the door.
Bella went over to the phone and found that it was gone. When she went to get her cell phone that had been missing too. What was happening? She went over to the windows but they were nailed shut. "No it can't happen," Bella said with a tear in her eyes.
Paul came back home that night and she was on the couch angry. He looked around seeing that she had not cooked dinner. "Where is my food?" Paul asked causing her to stand up.
"What is going on with you?" Bella asked. "You never were like this," she said softly. "Did I do something wrong?" She asked causing him to glare at her.
"I told you to cook my dinner," Paul said standing up in front of her.
"Forget the damn dinner!" Bella yelled out only to be punched in the face.
"Don't you ever talk to me like that!" Paul said. "I am the man of this house,' he said. "I bring the money into this house," he said firmly.
"Why are you doing this?" Bella asked with tears in her eyes.
"If you weren't such a little tramp I wouldn't have too," Paul said. "Now cook," he said grabbing the back of her hair. "My dinner," he said pushing her to the kitchen.
Bella felt tears swell up more in her eyes and then went to cook his dinner. "Here," she said setting it down and then went to get hers. Paul grabbed her arm and she looked down at him.
"I eat first then you eat," Paul said. "Sit down," he said causing her to sit down.
Bella ate a little bite afterwards and then she went into the bathroom. She cleaned up her face and then went to get changed. She had to find a way out of here but not tonight. Tommorow. Bella came into the room and he came up behind her. He wrapped his arms around her and moved her hair.
"What are you doing?" Bella asked closing her eyes.
"I am going to make love to you for being such a good girl," Paul said nibbling on her ear and she pushed him away from her.
"I don't want to do any of that," Bella said softly. "I told you," she said causing him to grab her. Paul kissed her roughly and the pushed her down on the bed. "Paul!!" She screamed.
"You are mine," Paul said. "And I will have you," he said ripping her shirt and she screamed. "Hey," he said covering her mouth. "Be quiet," he said.
"Stop this isn't you," Bella said looking up at him. "What happened to the Paul I knew back in Forks the one that healed my broken heart?" She asked causing him to touch her face.
"He is here," Paul said. "He is just look at a tramp now," he said looking at him. "I watch you with all those guys all the time," he said ripping her shirt open.
"NO!!" Bella screamed out just as he ripped off the rest of her clothes. She felt him plunge himself into her breaking through her innocense.
Bella tried to close herself off from the world until he was gone. Paul got off of her and she cuddled under the blanket. "You won't get away with this," Bella said through her tears.
"Yes I will," Paul said. "Remember Kirk," he said with a smile.
"You didn't," Bella said in shock.
"I love you Bella," Paul said kissing her softly. Bella looked at the door seeing that it was locked from the insde and she didn't have a key. She was trapped. Locked up against her will.
