Coraline

His head turns to mine, all the colour leaving his face.

My eyes begin to fog with tears, a few already escaping down my cheeks.

I can't believe what I've just heard. I came to grab my phone and heard yelling so I stopped to listen. Now I wish I didn't bother. I'd much rather not know this.

Everything in me is saying to run. But I stay still, watching as the both of them stare at me in shock.

How could he do this? Why was I so stupid to fall for him? From the start I knew it was weird that he had a sudden need for connection towards me. There's no way he, a literal rockstar, would fall for me.

Looking into his eyes now, I can see the truth.

I slowly start stepping backwards, just wanting to leave this house.

"Coraline.."

He starts to walk towards me, getting closer by the second.

My feet finally catch up with my brain, making me dash down the stairs to the front door.

I needed to leave.

I didn't know where to go, I just needed to go somewhere.

"Coraline!"

From behind me I hear his footsteps quicken, chasing me to outside.

I push my way out the door to the entry way, moving as fast as I could.

Once I'm outside, I feel a tight grip on my upper arm pull me back.

I yelp in pain as my bodies yanked back and clashes into his chest.

I don't dare look at him as I try to squirm from his grip. Nothing I do makes him let go.

His free hand moves to my other arm, forcefully flipping my body around to face his.

"Let go!"

"You have to listen to me, let me explain"

Not listening to him, I still try at any attempt to get out of his grip.

"Coraline, please"

In one quick pull, i escape from his grip.

"No. What in your right mind makes you think that you can treat someone like this, do you even care the tiniest bit about me and how I feel?" I cry, pointing at him.

He tries stepping towards me, but I move back further.

"Of course I care. Did you not hear me say this was all before. Before I got to know you. Before I fell in love with you" his voice raises, pointing his finger at me in an accusing way.

"That doesn't change anything. You don't even love me, that's not love. It's not good enough. You still had the intention in the first place to just destroy me. What thoughts go through your head to make you think this is okay?"

Tears start to fall from his eyes as he blankly stares at me.

"I do love you, Coraline" he whispers.

"You've barley known me a month! You don't plan to bring down those you love!" I yell into the space between us.

I don't even know why I'm giving him a reaction to this. I should be left this hell house by now. Away from him.
