YOU WANT ME?!? ~ Ralph Macchio

Attention - Chapter 9

Warning- this contains some trigger warning such as sexual abuse. Please do not read if triggering
I will leave info on what happens in the next one if you choose to skip.

"Why must you be like this?" I asked Ralph.

"Why must you be so distant."

"I have my reasons babycakes." His face got really red when I called him that.

"I like pups better, but do you mind me asking what your reasons are?"

"Okay well pups, I do mind."

"Is it some trauma?" He whispered in my ear.

"Yes." I whispered back. I didn't feel like crying about it but I knew it was going to happen.

"What kind?" He asked so sweetly. I couldn't help but give him a sad look.

"Abuse." He hugged me tight as if he was going to lose me.

"I want to know what kind but I don't want you to tell me if you don't want to."

"Um well sexual abuse." He hugged me tighter, and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"Who? Who would do this to you?"

"It's okay pups, he's gone. He's not in my life no more." I gave him a kiss on the cheek, I've never told anyone besides my family. My eyes water every time I remember it.

We all went home for the night

"Finally we're home!" I ran into the bedroom on the bed.

"Babe can you tell me who did it?"

"Gosh Ralph you make me flustered when you call me that..... . Do you really want to know?"

"Of course, but you're going to have to love getting called that." He smiled and I gave him one back. He was now on the bed with me.

"Well um it was my ex-stepdad." He looked so mad, I could understand why. Someone that's supposed to treat you like a daughter shouldn't do that. He was so mad that he took his shirt off and laid on the bed. He never sleeps without a shirt and when I felt him he was burning hot out of anger.

"Why would he do that to you?" He was so mad that you could hear it in his voice.

"I-I don't know, but it's a scary feeling." He seemed to calm down a bit.

"How old were you?" I looked away from him, I was starting to cry. I don't like crying especially from someone that caused fear in me. Ralph noticed I was crying I guess. He pulled my face towards him. He was cupping my face, he saw all the tears. He wiped the tears off. I pushed my self onto him, I was laying on top of his body, I hugged his waist.

"8." He got up to face me immediately. And he did what I did, he was on top of me, hugging my waist. "It's okay." It really wasn't, that man caused me to be scared of every man. He caused me to hate attention.

"Did you tell someone?"

"Yes, but it was years later. I told them almost 10 years after it happened. I was 13 turning 14 and my mom and him broke up. And she was going to get back with him until I told her to listen to me. I was in tears, and she believed me. But weeks later she told me I can't feel complete if I don't try again. It broke me she chose a criminal before her daughter. I simple told her then I won't see you again. My family was angry that my mom wanted that. But she couldn't face not seeing me. She broke it off."

"Is your mom blind?" I laughed.

"She's stupid, she's really pretty to get anyone she wanted and she wanted that scum bag."

"Have you told your dad?" I looked at him, remembering that I was but was told not to.

"No."

"He doesn't know?"

"No, he doesn't at all."

"You need to tell him one day."

"I can't."

"Why?"

"Everyone said that he'd kill him. He'd be in prison." Ralph got quiet. Really quiet.

"Remind me to never make your dad mad." We laughed at what he said.

"No one knows I'm dating you. At least I don't think. But my dad probably won't like you even if you're the nicest guy on earth. He doesn't like my brothers wives."

"You have brothers?!?" He got up to look at me, his arms on both sides of me, his body wasn't on me.

"Yes I have brothers!"

"Will they kill me too?!?"

"I don't think so."

"You don't think!"

"Well we aren't really close. And they're twigs like you."

"I am not a twig. I'm just skinny."

"Okay, okay you're skinny."

"Will I ever meet them?"

"Maybe. And don't worry they don't speak Spanish."

"Thank god."

"My grandparents do sometimes."

"Great."

"Sorry pups."

"Go change so we can sleep."

"Okayyyy, but you too. I'm not sleeping on the bed with you shirtless."

"But it's hot."

"No Ralph. It's either we can both sleep here or I sleep on the couch."

"Ughhhhh fine."

I got to bed and felt someone kiss my cheek or pretty much my whole face.

"Ralph go to sleep." He ignored me. I got tired of it and grabbed his. We were now face-to-face. He was looking at me and I was looking at him. I was about to let go until he grabbed my face and pulled me closer. I got ballsy and kissed him. He got really red.

"Really? You took my move!"

"Sorry you took to long."

"Have you realized that we haven't kissed since our photoshoots?"

"Oh." I pulled my face away to go to bed, but Ralph wanted attention so he pulled me closer to him. He looked at me. And by the time I knew it he was kissing me.
"Ralphhhh."

"Hmm?" He sounded a little annoyed when I broke the kiss.

"Sleep. Now."

"But."

"No. If we don't sleep, then I'm not going to give you attention."

"Okay lets sleep." I was going to pull away until Ralph pulled me closer to him.
"I like it this way and don't even try to pull away." I gave up and we finally slept.
