Chapter 10.

A/N

Two pretty best friends.

****

My eyes flutter open from the sunlight.

When I first open my eyes I have no idea where I am at.. Then I remember I'm at Lynn's. I lie back down on bed and relax.

Wait.

Sunlight. It's morning.

I quickly sit up from the bed. I stayed here. I fell asleep. Shit.

Dylan is going to be so mad. I jump off the bed and put my socks back on and grab my phone. Where is my other shoe? I get down on the floor looking for my shoe.

"Oh hey, your up finally." Lynn walks into her room, opening the door.

"Why didn't you wake me??" I slightly raise my voice, not wanting to yell at her, just frustrated. I didn't text Dylan. I just fell asleep. He is going to be furious.

"I just figured I would let you sleep in cause you didn't get much sleep the other night due to your nightmare."

"Your right. I'm sorry. I just was supposed to be back home at 2:30 exact." I explain, finally finding my shoe and slipping it on. I quickly walk out her bedroom door to leave.

"Don't you think it is a bit toxic that he is controlling you like this? I mean look at yourself. You are losing your mind because of him." Lynn says while we walk down to her car.

"He just cares. He loves me and just wants to make sure I'm safe." We get in the car and begin heading out of the driveway. Lynn knows I am rushing and is just going with it.

"You mean he just wants to make sure no one takes you from him." Lynn rolls her eyes. Aren't all relationships like that?

"All guys don't want their girlfriends taken from them though." I roll down the window and stick my hand out, feeling the wind brush passed my fingers.

"That is true but there is a difference from toxic and healthy. No guy wants their partner to be taken from them but if it happens then it happens. If they want to leave then they should be able to. But Dylan, he locks you in your own house. He gives you rules and expects you to just obey. Ella, that is a whole different level of toxic."

"I thought you said toxic was hot?" I question. I do remember her saying that one time.

Lynn sighs.  "I didn't mean toxic like how Dylan is to you. Keeping you from living life and locking you in your own house. That is just disgusting and makes me want to chop his head off. Dylan is disgusting toxic."

"So what do I do?" I ask, looking out the window.

"That is completely up to you E. But  I don't suggest you staying." Lynn begins. "You could come stay with me for a bit, save up, leave that jack ass, and maybe buy your own place."

"No it's okay. You already do enough for me. I'll figure it out." I smile. We pull into my driveway. Dylan's car is here. So he must me home. He's going to be so mad.

"Okay you listen to me right now." Lynn grabs my shoulders. "When you go in there, you be that bad bitch you are and stand your ground. If he lays a hand on you, I swear Ella, you call at least one of your bodyguards. I would say me but I might kill him so." I know she would. I nod my head. Lynn grabs my face and kisses my forehead.  "Love you loser."
