Chapter XIX
"He's your abusive ex"
"You've lied to me!" those were the first words, that I spoke to Oliver when he came to my place the first thing in the morning. Since last night I was getting back more and more memories about mine and Alexander's life. All of them made me so confused, hurt and frustrated.
Oliver was observing me with hurt and confusion in his hazel eyes. He stiffed in his place watching me very warily like he was trying to read my mind.
"What are you talking about?" he stepped closer to me while I took step back. "Magnus…"
"You thought that I will never remember? that I won't ever get my memories back?" there was a gleam of fear pure fear in his eyes now as he was watching me. "You are a hypocrite, fucking hypocrite !"
"Now wait just..."
"I know I've been with Alexander before!" his mouth hung open in a shock. "Now fucking tell me why I'm not with him anymore?!"
He was all silent, avoiding my gaze by all means. His hands were shaking, as he was breathing heavily.
"Tell me! Or I'll go to his place right now and ask him to get back with me!" he still haven't looked up at me "No matter the reason We broke up in the first place!"
"ok let's just calm..."
"Tell me!"
"Fine!" his eyes darkened, his breath quickened. There was something in his eyes that I couldn't read properly. "Do you really want to know it?"
"Yes!"
"I really wanted to keep it from you...but if you insists..." he drawled
"Cut the riddles! And Tell me!"
"That's true, you've been with Alec before" I nodded, sitting down on the couch in the living room. I had a feeling that I'm gonna pass out any minute from all emotions that were flying through my body right now. I was hurt, pissed, confused, even scared at the same moment. I couldn't calm myself down. "But you two broke up"
"Why?"
"Do you remember how I told you that the man you've been with before just took one day off?" I nodded involuntary "He was the man. It was Alec"
"Ok…"
"You two have been fighting a lot"
And then I heard Alec's voice in my mind.
"How could you be so stupid Magnus?!"
"This is all your fault!"
"This can't be happening!"
"Stop saying that!"
"You're an idiot! How can you be so dumb!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry" I heard myself.
"Fuck you! Get the hell out of my home and life!"
Right in front of my eyes, I was seeing a very angry version of Alec, glaring me, screaming at me, though I couldn't hear his voice longer.
Oliver was sitting next to me, holding his hands on both sides of my head. His cool lips pressed to my forehead. Tears were slowly falling down on my arms. My hands fisted on my knees, squeezing the material of my yoga pants. My breath was heavy and fast. I was having trouble with catching a normal breath.
"There, there my love" he was whispering, now kissing my temple "I've got you"
"What else did you lie to me about?" my voice escaped my mouth, without my consent.
"I didn't lie, I just wanted to keep you safe, love" his voice was calm, almost soothing. "I wanted to keep you safe, safe from him, so he wouldn't hurt you anymore"
"What…"
"You really don't remember it, do you?" my eyes were full of confusion when I looked up at him. Oliver was now slowly caressing my cheek wet from tears "It's hard, but if you want to know the real reason why you're not with Alec anymore…I'll tell you…"
"Please…I need to know…"
"He used to hit you" at first it didn't struck me right "He's your abusive ex. He abused you Magnus"
'He abused you Magnus. Abused you. Abused you' Oliver's words were running through my mind.
Alec was abusing me…
"He wanted to keep you only for himself. He didn't care about your feelings…and you…he manipulated you into thinking that you actually love him truly, and that you need to be with him" Oliver was talking without any emotion in his voice "He started to hit you during having sex. But then it became almost a daily thing. No matter what you did, you got a hit from him. And the worse was when you simply looked at some other man or woman…like with Camille…when you kissed her behind school…"
'I wanted to do it for so long' I breathed out, when I pulled away from her. Her blonde locks were ruffled by my fingers and air.
'Me too'
'I told you to stay away from that bitch!' a deep male voice spoke in my mind, sending shivers to my spine.
'Please stop. I'm sorry…it hurts' A hurtful memory of hits filled me, making me sick. '…please stop…I love you and only you…please stop…'
'You deserve more!' I could almost feel those hits once again on my body.
"PLEASE STOP!" A loud cry escaped my mouth, followed by streaming tears.
"Shhh Magnus, it's okay now. He can't hurt you anymore" Oliver was soothing my back. "I've got you my love, I'll protect you from him. He won't hurt you anymore"
There was a long, silent pause, only being interrupted by my loud sobs in Oliver's chest. He was stroking my hair slowly, as I was getting his black shirt wet.
"Do you want to hear the rest?"
"Yes…" almost an unheard whisper was spoken by me.
"The night you've kissed Camille, he beat you up so badly…almost…you almost ended up in the hospital…" he was saying "But something happened, and he fell to the floor, hitting his head…and there was the time you ran away from the house…straight to get help for yourself…"
"Ragnor…" I said, after a wave of pain hit my head.
I stood all beaten up in front of his door, when he saw me, his eyes went wide.
'I'm going to kill that son of a bitch!' he examined my face before he led me inside. 'He's a dead man!'
'No, please no…I love him…' a small whisper came from me.
'He's abusing you Magnus! This has to end! I'm gonna end it!'
'I love him…so much…I love him…'
'Love shouldn't hurt!'
"If he wouldn't help you then, I don't know…"
"No more…please…no more…" I buried my face more into Oliver's chest, wanting him to protect me from everything now.
"It' ok now Magnus, it's ok. I won't let him come close to you anymore" for a while I let myself being consumed by this sweet promise.
"And Lily…"
"He never hit his child, you told me that" he stroked my hair once more "Only you've been his victim"
"But he was so nice for me now…" I said it, as I realized that Alec indeed was all sweet, nice, caring for me, since the day I've seen him for the first time in hospital. And my heart was telling me that he is like that for real.
But in the end I couldn't let go those memories, and screams in my mind, away. My past with Alec was hurtful, and I didn't want to repeat it.
"That's his game" Oliver got me out of my thoughts "He was only playing you, manipulating you so you'd go back to him. To that hell, he brought once upon you…but fear not my love, I'll protect you from him. I won't let him come close to you. And you stay away from him too, ok? Promise me that Magnus. I can't let him hurt you. Promise me, you'll stay away from him. Promise me my love"
"I promise" I echoed, while he was rubbing my arms in a calming manner.
…
He was calling me every day, for the past week, leaving tones of voice messages on my phone. Keeping asking 'what happened?'. Demanding from me to meet with him.
'Magnus, what happened in the club?' his voice full of confusion 'Call me back'
'Magnus, please, call me back. Let's talk'
'Mags, what's going on?'
'Please, will you talk with me?'
He even started to coming to my place, and that got me scared. What if he'll raise his hand on me again? My body trembled at this thought. After his third visit in my place, Oliver decided that it'll be better if I move to his mom's place with him, so he could keep an eye on me.
It was strange that his room here looked exactly as I remembered, only more fresh. The walls were re-painted in the same color. The bed was the same, only with the new sheets. But it made me feel safe, for a while.
"Are you ok?" Oliver asked, as he laid down next to me on the bed. "Magnus?"
"He keeps calling me…"
"Do you want me to take care of it?" he kissed the side of my neck. That's when the phone ringed again.
"No…I…I need to tell him to leave me alone…so I could finally close this chapter in my life…" he smiled a little at me. With trembling fingers, I clicked the green button on my phone. "He…hello?"
"Magnus, thank god" he started "I'm calling you for days. What's going on?"
"We can't seeing each other anymore" I tried to stay as much stoic as I could, but it was hard. My heart ached when I was thinking about what I have to tell him. I loved Alec, I was sure of it, but he hurt me too much in the past. As Oliver said to me, I've fallen in love with the illusion. Not the real Alec, the one that used to hurt me many times.
"What?!" his voice roused, making me shiver from the fear "What are you talking about?"
"I know all. I remember Alec…" a sigh came from his side "I remember…"
"Then why are you saying…if this is about that fight…it's all forgotten now…"
"No! I don't want to be with you! I don't want to be near you!" I was surprised of how loud and hurt at the same time I sounded. "I don't want to be with you…"
"What the actual fuck Magnus?..." he started but I interrupted him immediately, not giving a chance to say anything else.
"Don't call to me. Don't try to find me. I don't want to be around you anymore. Nor I don't want you to be around me" there was a sharp inhaling coming through the phone, as well as sobs. And I wasn't sure anymore, which one of us actually cried. "It's over"
With that I hung up and dropped the phone to the floor. My breath was heavily, filled with sobs. My face was wet from tears that were running down my cheeks. Oliver wrapped his arms around me from behind, as I was hiding face in my hands.
"Everything is going to be ok, my love. He won't hurt you anymore" he was leaving small kisses all over my shoulders "I'm here for you. I love you Magnus, I love you. I'll protect you from him. I promise you"
My heart was crying, crying out for Alexander, because I love him. But my mind was playing me all the time one statement.
'He hurt you Magnus. He's your abusive ex'.
And I refused to go through the hell again, no matter how much I love him.
A/N: Did you like it?
I know, I know, now you're all screaming at your computers: HOW CAN SHE BE SO CRUEL?! I would do it, if I were you.
But honestly? Oliver had to pull something strong to keep Magnus with him.
If you're confused why Magnus believed him: Magnus didn't get all memories in the previous chapter. Only a little. He just realized that he was with Alec at some point of his life. And when Oliver realized that Magnus knows about being with Alec and he believes that he broke up with him, he just sold him the story of their relationship, as because MAgnus didn't remember that part of his life. As well, Oliver is very manipulative, and Magnus's mind is still very vulnerable and Oliver is using this on him. It's very easy for him to manipulate Magnus, by telling him certain things.
But don't worry, finally Magnus will get all his memories back. And he will remember that it was Oliver who abused him. But that in the end.
Now, the next one, at the end of the week. Now I must write a chapter for 'Days...' the one that Magnus will starting to seduce Alec.
