035. i guess not

trigger warning

rape

lennon was practically being forced to go see vinnie, which also meant she had to face him. of course she wanted to see vinnie since she missed him but she was far from being excited about going to the hype house.

she drove over there, feeling extremely scared and worried for what was about to happen. she couldnt face him, she didnt want to face him, she didnt even want to see him. she just wanted to talk to her boyfriend like they usually would.

when she walked into his room, he seemed as if he was waiting for her. he held his arms out, waiting till she walked over. vinnie instantly wrapped his arms around her waist as held her close to himself.

"i missed you" he whispered, softly pecking her lips.
"i missed you too" she mumbled into his chest.
"you wanna watch a movie?"
"sure, i dont care" she shrugged, burying her head deeper into his chest.

the movie was almost over at the point and lennon was half asleep against her boyfriend. she quickly woke herself up as the devil himself, walked through the door, looking for vinnie.

"i forgot, i need to help sydney with something. i'll uh, i'll see you later okay bub?" she said, slowly getting up.
"you just got here not even 2 hours ago" he whined, michael standing there and observing.
"i know and im sorry baby"
"was i interrupting something?" michael asked, a small frown on his face.
"no, well kinda but its fine" vinnie said, his eyes still fixed in lennon.
"you know what, its fine, i'll leave you two alone for a little while" he said before walking out.

vinnie placed his hands on her waist, turning her to look at him.

"what was that about?"
"nothing, its fine baby. dont worry about it"
"your lying... you've been lying to me for the past few days"
"vinnie..."
"why are you lying to me?"
"please vinnie, just trust me"
"lennon, why are you lying?"
"bub your finally happy, i want you to stay happy okay? dont worry about me"
"but if your not happy then im not happy"
"dont worry about me. im gonna be fine"
"see, thats the thing... your still lying to me"
"vinnie... your happy and you like living here. thats a good thing right?"
"what are you trying to say?"
"that you should continue being happy. please vinnie, dont worry about me"
"i dont get why your still fucking lying! first you lie about your dad, then about you loving me, then about this!" his voice raised as tears formed in her eyes.
"baby why would i lie about my dad? or loving you?"
"for pity"
"ok, try feeling completely vulnerable and hopeless as your fucking tied down to a bed, feeling useless as your own dad uses you like a plastic sex doll! then try going to school with bruises covering your body and having to tell people different lies everyday at the age of 14!" she yelled before feeling tears roll off her cheeks.
"i dont get why your fucking lying to me!"
"vinnie im not lying! im dead serious! and i would never lie about loving you! im completely in love with you vinnie! i would never want you to think that!"
"so if your really happy for me, why are you acting like you did when you first met me?!"
"because there are things you dont know, things i cant tell you! your happy here and i cant be the one to take that all away from you! thats why i never mentioned anything about you moving in here!"
"just tell me lennon!"
"i cant..." she cried, trying to even out her breathing to resist the panic attack that was welling up inside her.
"you'll hate them and i dont want that for you!" she mentioned, tears sliding down her cheeks.
"you cant protect me from stuff like this!"
"vinnie, i need you to trust me okay? you dont want to know!"
"how can i trust you?!"
"fine, you really wanna know?! try having someone try to touch you then call you a slut and a prositute just because they couldnt get in your pants!"
"stop fucking lying!" he screamed at her as she cried harder.
"your a liar lennon, please princess, just tell me the truth and this can all be over with" he said softly, tears forming in his eyes.
"bub, i promise i'm telling you the truth!"
"i cant trust you anymore lennon. i cant trust anything you say because it feels like everything that comes out of your mouth is a lie! was i just a game to you? did i fuel your ego?"
"vinnie i promise! i swear on my life that im telling the truth!"
"i dont trust you. all you've ever done is lie to me and play with me. i guess i was just meant to entertain you"
"where is this coming from?!"
"michael! he told me you cheated on me with him!"
"your really listening to him... i would never do that to you vinnie. i love you and i'll always love you. i've been cheated on way too many times so trust me when i say, i know the pain. i would never want to put you through anything like that"
"i dont get you" he rolled his eyes.
"well... i guess we don't understand each other anymore" she whispered, tears still rolling off her cheeks.
"i guess not"

she slightly nodded, getting off his bed and quickly walking out, not wanting to stay in there any longer in fear of breaking down in front of him.
