I don't really like you
Chapter 8; (Olivia P.O.V.)
I remembered it so clearly.
Flashback
It was wayyy after rehearsal and Luke and I were the only people there. It was 2 A.M., an hour or two before us going to the hospital. I started to leave when Luke pulls me back. I winced in pain, not only was there a cut but there was also a bruise. A bruise from him to be exact.
"What the fuck Benward?" I say trying to push him off. I knew that I had to be strong, for my brother, my sisters, for Leo. I had to be strong for my parents because if I broke up with this boy, it's going to be a lot worse than it is now. You see, I was paid to date him, but I can break up with him anytime, I just won't get extra money. Unfortunately, not only that, Luke has something against me. Something that no one knows expect for Lorie, my parents, and my sisters. I had no idea how he found out, but he did. If anyone ever found out although, I would be dead and sent back to a place worse than here. HELL. He smiled evilly at me. My eyes widen. I started to thrash and kick him violently. Tears started to come down my face. "STOP IT! PLEASE NO! STOP!" I yell. I didn't want to face him so turned away while still screaming and trying to run away from him. He pulls me roughly to his chest. Breathing in his cheap cologne I started to cough. Luke made me face him. I pause screaming for just one minute to let him speak.
"Baby, the more you struggle the more this hurts." Again, I started to thrash and scream. It didn't work, he was much stronger than me. I was stuck. "Lord, I don't know what I did to deserve this. But please don't make me go through this again. I promise I'll go to church more. I promise I'll stop wishing on the star that Leo will like me. I get it, he doesn't like me." I say thinking and praying to myself in my head. I remember that I had still been screaming and thrashing because Luke let go off me and slapped my face while yelling,
"SHUT THE HELL UP! SOMEONE'S GOING TO FIND OUT!" He was angry and when he was angry, the beatings were even worse. I was used to his punches and it didn't really hurt for me anyway. Being in that horrid place made my get use to it. But him having something against me, I pretended that it hurt. He laughed. After a few more punches, I heard a familiar, perky, voice scream. Luke had a wide eyes, I didn't care because I was too busy looking at the new bruises that I knew I was going to hide with makeup... again.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY BEST FRIEND?" Turning around I saw Zendaya. To myself, I mouth, "Best friend?" I never really considered Zendaya a best friend. Sure she was a really good friend, but I don't think we were of really close. But for the sake of the situation, I went along with it. Zendaya march to Luke with an angry face. "ANSWER ME BENWARD!" Luke turned to me and gave me a accusing look.
"DID YOU FUCKING CALL HER?" Scared, I shook my head no, nervously. Zendaya pushed me to the side and took my place.
"No, thank God, I forgot my homework in the school room because I found out that you're doing this to your own girlfriend. What were you fucking thinking anyway?" She says. Zendaya did not know half of it. Suddenly, Luke cracked his knuckled and then his neck.
"Well, gotta take care of business." My eyes widen as I saw him throw a punch at her, I push her aside and caught it. Everything went in slow motion, Zendaya falling on her wrist and ankle, her getting up. During that time Luke and I switch places, I threw a kick at Luke, he ducks and my foot came in contact with Zendaya's head. She falls, blood everywhere, Luke laughed for a few minutes before running off somewhere else. I put Zendaya's head on my lap, softly begging her to wake up. After a while, I hear her mother say from the school room,
"ZENDAYA? WHERE ARE YOU? NEXT TIME I AIN'T GONNA LET YOU IN THIS LATE! DAYA!" My eyes widen, if they caught me I would lose my job and I absolutely love my job. Quickly saying good bye to Zendaya and kissing her forehead gently, I run off while grabbing my bag. I ran to the bus stop and caught a bus home. Thankfully, no one was there. Hands shaking, I open the door to my house. All of them were either asleep, or on a business trip. "Good." I thought. Putting on PJs, I went to bed with a guilty conscience.
End of Flashback
Still crying, I felt a hand on my shoulder. Mrs. Coleman. My eyes widen. She shushed me and sat on the floor with me. She pulled my close and started to say,
"Baby girl, I know you suffered too much already, so guess what?" I look up to her. Mrs. Coleman pulled out a tape. I cocked my head to the side. Then realization hit. It was the security tape. She stood up, pulling her with me and then smashed it on the ground. I gasp and gave her a shocked look. She leaned close to me. "It's alright. Look at me. I know everything. Ain't nothing goes past me. You may got your friends and sisters and brother in the act, but it ain't going to work on me." She paused and then leaned close to my ear. and put her hands on the side of my arms. "Sweatheart, I'm going to get you out of this mess, even if it's the last thing I do 'for I die." Mrs. Coleman pulled away. " 'Sides, you old enough to get yo' own house. I know that you don't want to move cuz ya' got ya brother there. Don't lie to me. You can lie to everybody, but not me." Mrs. Coleman got that southern-ish accent. I smiled, "Don't think about it Olivia. " A little voice in my head says. " Oh, and you ain't got nothing to worry about Daya, she fine. Minor concussion." With that she turned around and left. But right before she did, she told me over her shoulder, "Oh watch out for you're little friends, I think they best be planning sumthin'." And then she winked. I was speechless. "Someone, other than Lorie could see through me?" I cheered up a bit.
