The Next Day599Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtBllqKxN6
I barely got any sleep last night. But I should get out of bed and take a shower. I pulled the sheets off of me and I see blood, dried on the sheets. Oh crap, Farrah is going to be a little upset when she sees this. I want to tell her the truth. But she probably won't believe me. I was woken from my thoughts when I heard someone knock on my door.
"Come in" I gestured. The person comes in. It was their mother. Oh, good. She comes towards the bed and sees the mess.
"Oh dear. Is it that time for you?" she asks me.
"No, your son raped me last night" I thought to myself.
"Y-Yes" I stutter while lying to her. I let a few tears slip down my face.
"Oh honey. It's not your fault. I'll get these off and washed right away. OK?" she says with a smile on her face.
"She's sure in a good mood. For which I'm not"
"Okay. I'm just going to go take a shower" I say while gesturing to the guest bathroom.
"Of course! Breakfast will be ready in 20 minutes"
"Thanks" I say and then head towards the bathroom. When I started walking, my hips we're starting to hurt.
"Damn!" I mutter under my breath. I hear their mother turn and walk towards me. Of course she's concerned. I'm going to have to lie again. For stupid Cole's sake. Ugh!!
"Are you okay?!?" she asks while getting down on her knees next to my waist. Feeling them. I flinch a little bit.
"Please don't lift up my shirt. Please don't lift up my shirt" I keep thinking to myself.
"I-It must be the period cramps, again. Do you have anything I can take?" I ask, lying yet again.
"Oh okay. And yeah I do. I will set them on the counter in the bathroom and you can take them when your done" she replies back with a worried but happy look on her face.
I just nod back and she gets up off of the floor. She just smiles and walks away, exiting the room. I get to the bathroom and grab a towel from the small closet. I undress myself slowly and look at myself.
There are bruises everywhere. They are on my waist, shoulders and my legs. I still can't believe that he did this to me. How am I ever going to face him again? I thought he cared about me? What made him do this? I wish I could find out, but he will probably just walk it off and pretend nothing ever happened. I hate him so much!! He deserves to be in jail for what he did!! But me, being a wimp, I have to keep it a secret. Just for his reputation. Ugh!!
I take a deep breath and go turn on the shower. I step into the water and felt it stinging on my body. Leaving me with tears rolling down my face. No matter how clean I am, it will not wash away anything that happened last night. I just sit there in the shower and let the tears fall. After a few more minutes I get out and finish getting ready for the day.
Might as well fight through this day and hope for the best. All I want to do is go home and cry in my bed. Because there is nothing else I want to do right now. That's how I want to spend my birthday. I walk out of the guest bathroom and go back into the room where the incident happened. I should get dressed quickly and get out of here. I don't want to be in here. I grab some clothes and put them on. Might as well look a little decent for my birthday.
After putting them on I head back into the bedroom and blow dry my hair. I grab a ponytail and put my hair up into a decent bun. I finish up and just stand there for a few seconds. I take a few deep breaths and prepare myself for a long day with my best friend and her family. Oh boy..
I exit the bathroom slowly and start smelling the sweet smell of waffles. My favorite breakfast food. I can hear them laughing down there and I'm still in the bedroom. Might as well go face my friend and her...brother. I grab my phone off of the nightstand and head out of the room. This is going to be a long day.
I slowly walk out of the bedroom and close it quietly so that nobody can hear me. I walk slowly down the hall looking at every family picture. I stop at one that was taken recently. I stare at it for awhile. They all look really happy in this picture. Or so I thought when my eyes landed on Cole's face. I just want to take this picture out and rip his face off of it. He was just pretending to like me so that he can turn it all around and ruin me. I hate him so much!!
I stop staring at the picture and take a deep breath yet again. I have to pretend everything is fine, this day is about me. It's my birthday, I should be happy..
After that long walk I slowly reach the kitchen. I perk around the corner and see all of them standing there, talking and laughing. Having a great time like nothing is wrong. I need to put on my happy face now. At least pretend to enjoy this day. I walk in quietly and everyone stops laughing for a second and stares at me. All but Cole.
"Awe, your finally down here! Here is this Kinsley" their mom says while handing me medicine. I grab it and take a couple out of the bottle.
"Sorry that I didn't give it to you earlier, I was so caught up on working on this birthday breakfast for you" their mom continues to say.
"I-It's okay. Really. I understand" I stutter out while grabbing a cup for my water. I turn on the faucet and I saw Cole glancing over at me with a smile on his face.
"Of course your smiling. Your not fooling anyone"
I turn off the faucet and take the meds while swallowing some water as well. Cole looks away and goes to sit down. I set my cup down on the counter and just stand there staring at my cup for awhile. I pick it back up and take another sip. I catch him glancing at me again. He better wipe that smirk off of his face or I will. I take my lips off of the cup and go sit down.
"Here honey, sit down right here" their mom suggests while pointing to the one chair that is open.
Right next to Cole. Of course.
I walk over slowly and go sit down. I take a big gulp and pull out the chair and sit down. Once I sit down, I set my cup down as well. Not noticing how close these chairs are, I feel my knee touch Cole's. Which sends a shiver down my spine. I can't stand sitting next to him anymore. I wish I could tell them what happened. But I'm afraid to. I don't know what will happen if I do, I don't know what Cole will do to me. Not that he didn't ruin my life already.
He slightly turns his head until his face his facing mine. I put my head down so I don't have to see his face. I know he smiling, it's like he's controlling my emotions.
"How are you feeling today Kinsley" I hear him whisper to me in a deep controlling voice. I then feel his hand land on my thigh. This also sent a shiver down my spine as well.
I put my hands into a fist and whisper back angrily, "Just fine, thanks for asking." I don't realize that my knuckles have turned white until I glance at them. I really want to punch that stupid smile off of his stupid face!
He moves his hand not only off of my thigh, he moves it up closer to my waist. I wince a little bit. But not loud enough for anyone else to hear. He needs to knock it off. I take my hand and push his hand off of mine. When no body was looking he grabs my wrist under the table not letting go.
"You will not do that again. Understand?" he whispers in his deep controlling voice again. I look up at his eyes and see no emotions spread across his face. It's like a whole new him. What in the world?!?
"Y-yes I understand" I stutter while whimpering.
"Good" he says and then roughly let's go of my arm revealing a bruise forming on my wrist.
What has happened to him? What has happened to the Cole that I used to know? I hate this thing that he is doing. He is pretending to be a sweet and now, I just met the darker side of him. And I want him to leave.
Their parents put the waffles and other stuff like syrup and powdered sugar and fruit on the table. After that they sit down and join us. Before we could grab anything, I forgot that we need to pray at the table. Which means I need to hold hands with..him.
"Okay, is everyone ready to pray? Grab your neighbors hand" their father says to all of us.
I easily grab Farrah's hand and watch Cole gesture by offering me his hand. I slowly move my hand into his, while shaking a bit. Before I knew it, his hand was somewhat gently wrapped around mine. Gotta play the long game, don't we Cole? Again, your not fooling anyone.
We finish praying and then grab the food that we want to eat. I grab only a waffle and some regular syrup with a few cut up strawberries. I usually eat more than that, but I lost my appetite from last night. Everyone else grabbed their food and of course Cole grabs alot. Of course he does. He definitely worked up an appetite from last night. Everyone finishes up eating while I just there and wait for everyone to finish up. It's rude to get up while others are still eating.
"Hey Kins. Aren't you going to get some more? You usually eat alot more than that" I hear Farrah ask me.
"I'm..not that hungry. And no, thanks for asking" I reply back with the sanest look I could put on my face.
"Oh okay then. Usually you eat more than that" Farrah says with a concerned look on her face.
"I'm just not that hungry, okay!" I exclaim at her. Everyone looks at me with a shocked look on their face. Everyone but Cole. He did this to me.
"I-I'm Sorry. I don't know why I did that. I apologize. I must've not got much sleep last night" I say, apologizing to everyone, but Cole. He just sits there smiling at me. He's going to be the death of me.
"It's okay Kins. I'm sorry as well" she replies back with some sort of a half smile. She's upset at me. I can just tell.
"Okay" I reply back. We all finish our food and clear off their table.
I follow Farrah and put my dishes in the sink. We both wash off our dishes and head upstairs to her room. I want to get away as possible from her brother right now. We start walking up the stairs and reach the hallway. While we were walking to her room I catch a glance into Cole's old bedroom. I used to go into his room every time when I was younger. We used to play video games whenever Farrah was out playing sports. She was a sport's player until she up and decided to quit. Nobody knows why. She doesn't tell anyone. Anyways, I glance away from his room and look over to see the room right next to Farrah's. My room.
I take a deep breath, yet again and close my eyes for a second.
"N-No. Please...S-Stop!!" I open up my eyes again and see Farrah looking at me with a concerned look on her face.
"You okay Kins? You were out of it a second ago" she asks me looking a bit more concerned.
"Yeah, I'm okay. I just had a nightmare last night. That's all" I lie while holding back the tears.
"Oh, okay" she replies back while opening up her door that leads us to her room. I close the door behind me and we go sit down on her bed. I love how her room looks. It just suits her personality and I wish I did my room a little bit like this. But I like the way it looks now.
"So what should all three of us do together?" I hear Farrah ask me, breaking me out of this trance I'm in.
"Us, three?" I ask her with a scarred look on my face.
"Yeah. Me, you and Cole" I hear her say. Sending Cole's name running down my spine. I try my best not to show it. Luckily she doesn't notice.
"Yeah, um, can we just have a girls day? At like the mall or something. We haven't had one in awhile" I reply while twiddling with my fingers.
"Yeah, sure. I'll let my mom know" Farrah exclaims while grabbing her phone and texting her mom about our plans. Even though her mother is downstairs. Her mom replies back quickly.
"I bet she said yes" I whisper to a point where she can hear me as well.
"You are correct. Were leaving in 20 minutes. Do you need to freshen up at all?" she replies back.
"Um, no. I'm good. I'll just let my mom know what were doing today" I reply back with a half smile. I am just glad that it's going to be just us two today. That's how I wanted to spend this day anyways.
I grab my phone out of my pocket and go to my messages to let my mom know what we are doing today. She replied back saying, "Alrighty! Have fun. Do not forget that were going out tonight at 7 for your birthday dinner." I reply back, "Thanks and yeah I didn't forget. I'll be home at 6:30." We text for a few more minutes until I realize that it is time for us to leave.
We grab our phones, wallets and our purses and head out downstairs to wait for their mom. When we got down to their living room, I see Cole sitting there swinging keys around his pointer. "Please don't tell me that he's-"
"You guys ready to go?" he asks us with a smile on his face. He really knows how to tick me off. But I have to pretend everything is fine so nobody will notice. God, I just want to smack that smile off of his stupid thin-chiseled face.
"Yeah! Let's go!" Farrah squeals while jumping up and down like a 5 year old girl.
I wish I was as happy as she was right now. I would be in a better mood if her mother took us. I guess not. I just nod and all three of us head out. Bet that Far rah never told her mother what was going on. If we go to a movie in the mall, I am definitely sitting next to Farrah. We walk out the door and head out to his car. I go to go sit in the back until Farrah says something that I wish she didn't say.
"It's your birthday! The birthday girl gets to sit up front!!" she squeals while getting into the back of Cole's car. I wish she didn't say those words. If she knew the real reason why, then everything would be different right now. I open up the passenger side door and slowly sit myself down in the passenger seat. I slowly grab the passenger side door and close it. I put on my seat-belt and just keep my head down. I don't want to look at him right now.
I was startled by a hand landing on my thigh. I look up and see that it was Cole's hand. I better do what he says or we will have a repeat of what happened at breakfast this morning. "Just do what he says and I will not have to see the dark side of him again" I think to myself. I put my hand on his hand and pretend that I care, even though it is sending shivers down my spine. He looks at me and plants a smirk on his face.
"Your lucky that Farrah is here right now. Or I would be smacking you across the face" I think to myself with a disgust look on my face. But when I look up at him, I plant a fake smile on his face.
"Are you ready for a great day today...Kins?" he asks me with that smile still on his face.
"Yeah, I am" I reply back with my fake smile still plastered on my face.
I take my hand off of his and he takes his hand off of my thigh. He turns his head back and looks at the review mirror. He then puts his car into reverse and we head out to the mall. This is going to be a long day.
I lean against the passenger side window and stare out watching the other cars drive past us for what seems like forever. I also tune out Cole's and Farrah's conversation as well. I really don't want to talk to both of them right now. I keep staring out the window until we reach the mall. Cole better leave when we get there. If not, Farrah's not gonna hear the end of it.
We reach the mall a few minutes later. Cole drops us off and gives me a wink when Farrah is not looking. I roll my eyes and walk away, towards the doors that lead to the mall. I can't wait to get away from him. Farrah and I glance around the place and find the shops that we want to go to.
We finally reach Forever 21. Our favorite shopping store. We both go around the place and find clothes that we would enjoy wearing this spring and summer. I ended up finding a spring outfit and a summer outfit, I also got a pineapple phone cover for my phone as well. Needed a new one anyways. Plus, it's adorable.
I go and look for Farrah. I find her in the summer section looking at shorts. She already has her spring outfit picked out. And it definitely suits her. She sees me standing there and gestures for me to come over. I go over to her and help her pick out some shorts. We shop in the store for a few more minutes and then check out. Her summer outfit is really cute as well. We grab our bags and head out to the food court.
All of a sudden, I am craving some chili cheese fries and I haven't eaten those in a year. Weird. We set our stuff down on a table and go get us something to snack on. I go and get my chili cheese fries and sit down. We sit and talk for at least and hour.
"And she ate the whole cookie dough off of the spoon?" Farrah laughs.
"Yeah, she didn't save me any. Luckily, I got to have the first cookie that came out of the oven and it was delicious" I reply with an actual smile on my face.
"So, shall we head out to one more shopping store and then head home?" Farrah asks me.
"Y-yeah" I stutter. Making my happy mood go back down to the way it was this morning.
"Yay! Let's go!" Farrah squeals while grabbing her bags and empty tray. I grab my bags and my tray as well. We dump all of our empty stuff into the trash and head out to a shoe store. I'm in a need for a new pair of shoes.
We reach the shoe store and look around for pairs that we will wear. Farrah wears a size 8 in women's and I wear a size 6 in women's. Yeah, I have small feet. Don't judge me! I look around in my section until I found a cute pair of maroon vans. I try them one and of course, they fit. I put them back into the box and go find Farrah. I see her trying on a black pair of vans. They fit her perfectly. She takes them off and we go check out.
While we check out she text messages Cole letting him know, that we're done shopping. I feel my heart start to beat real fast. I'm going to have to sit next to him again. Great..
I can't wait to go home. To my house. And I can't for him to leave and go back to college. We check out of the shoe store and head out to the front where we first came in. I go and sit down on the bench outside taking a few deep breaths. I can't take it anymore. I want to tell someone. I wish I could. But I can't!!
He knew that I can have anxiety attacks and didn't care last night. I wish I could forget that one night. I should've stayed home and watched TV with my little sister and my parents. I wish my older brother was here too. I just want to go home and cry into his arms. He's the only one who I can tell my feeling to. My mom and dad are usually gone two to three times a week so I barely have time to talk to them.
My older brother Adam, is away at college as well. I think him and Cole go to the same one. I might have to wait and ask him when he comes for Summer vacation in a couple of months. He graduates in a year. So he is a Junior in college. And I wish he was here right now. I miss you Adam!!
After a few more minutes, Cole arrives in the front of the mall. I grab my bags and put them into the back. And as me being the birthday girl, I slowly get back into the front seat. I don't look at him the rest of the ride home. He makes me feel scared and I feel like having an anxiety attack. But I take slow deep, quiet breathes so that he doesn't have to look this way at me. We arrive back at their house fairly quickly. Farrah gets out and grabs her stuff and heads inside. I go to open my door but it was pulled back in. What does he want now?
"We need to talk" Cole says in a deep voice.
"W-we don't h-have anything to t-talk about" I stutter back at him. He stares back at me with his cold, green eyes.
"Yes, we do. You forgot to give me something" he says with a smile forming on his face.
"You already took my virginity, what else do you - " I exclaim until I felt Cole lips crash onto mine. He crawls over and sits on my lap while pushing the seat back.
As I did last night, I tried to pull him off. But I wasn't strong enough. He starts kissing my neck until I felt him starting to bite it, hard. I hold my breath trying not to give in. After a couple more minutes he gets up and opens the passenger side door with a smile on his face. I just lay there for a few seconds realizing what he just did.
He just claimed me as his own.
I get up out of the seat and go grab my stuff out of the back of the car. Cole already went inside leaving me alone like he did last night. He's really starting to piss me off. He needs to be in jail for what he did to me! Anyways, I grab my last bag and close the back trunk of his car and headed inside.
I get inside and almost drop my bags. Until I saw Cole come over and grabs one, like the ''gentleman' he is. He looks at me with a smile just like yesterday when he grabbed my phone. He was just playing and faking it the whole time.
I put on fake smile and thank him with my eyes while glaring at him. He doesn't deserve my thanks.
"Aww, what a gentleman. We raised such a great son my dear" I hear his father say.
"Yeah he's such a great son."
"Like I said before, Your Not Fooling Anyone."
He sets down my bag and glares at me with a smirk on his face before he heads upstairs to his room. Thank God he's gone! I grab my phone out of my pocket and see what time it is. It is 6:15pm. I should call my mom to come pick me up. So I can go home and get ready for my birthday dinner with my family.
"Hey, I'm gonna call my mom real quick. So she can come and pick me up" I say to their parents.
"Of course! I'll go get your stuff, do you don't have to walk all the way back up there" their mother says while walking up the stairs.
"Thank God. I didn't want to go back up there anyways" I thought to myself while taking a deep and dialing my mom's number.
She comes and picks me up a few minutes later. Farrah and her mother help bring my stuff. I thank everyone but Cole. We leave and head home to get ready for tonight.
"So, did you have fun last night Kinsley?" my mom asks me. I close my eyes, take a deep breath and tell her the one lie that I regret saying.
"....Yeah"
