FOREVER AND BEYOND

Beyond the Boundary ( Part 2)

Melody's P.O.V

Why do I keep falling? Is it one of my dreams again? And what's up with that insane sound of music? My head! Aghhhh! When did I come upstairs? 

Oh, right! I was at a party at Damien's house. Damien wanted to feel like he was back in college. He was so excited this whole week, about this party. He invited all his college friends, and asked me to invite mine as well. Well, not that I have many friends in Seoul. 

I came upstairs, as I was having a terrible headache. When did I fall asleep? I fell asleep on the sofa, and now my head hurts even more. Is Damien, still downstairs? I got up and looked at my phone. Out of battery. His table clock says, 1 am. It's this late, God! I should go back home. According to Damien's grand plan, he is going to party all night and drink till he is wasted. But, well, I have a meeting tomorrow.  

I got up from the sofa, and almost immediately, I heard the door knob turn. Damien. His face and eyes, red from drinking too much. 

" You alright?", I asked, worried. 

" Ah. look who's here. Hey beautiful! ", Damien said and smiled foolishly. He is seriously so cute. 

" Wow. you really drank till you are wasted, huh! ", I said and walked towards him. 

" Yes. Why didn't I throw this party earlier? Melody, we should throw parties more often" 

" Sure. I will help you "

"You should leave your boring job, and become my assistant. You would make a really hot assistant " 

" YOU ARE DRUNK! Go to bed. I will bring some water for you", I said.  

" No. Don't go! Melody, you are so busy all the time. You are my girlfriend. I feel like, you forget that sometimes", he said in a sulky tone and held my hand. 

I chuckled, "No. How can I ever forget that? It's just we both are busy. Our schedules just don't match. Stay here. I will bring some water. I have to go back home later. I have a meeting in the morning". 

I walked past him, and moved towards the door. 

"Melody....", he said and stopped me. I felt him against my back, as his hand slid around my waist and rested on my stomach.  I froze. 

I love Damien. But, I am not comfortable yet. We still don't even know each other properly. We barely can spend any time, and.... 

" I love you, Melody ", He said, in the softest tone possible. 

I relaxed a bit and replied, " I love you too " 

" Then sleep with me, today. It's been a month, we started dating " 

"I am not ready yet, Damien. Let's get to know each other, and experience more, okay?", I said, trying not to show my panic. 

"We do know each other. Isn't this why, we are dating in the first place ?" 

"Yes. But...Can we have this conversation tomorrow? You are too drunk, for any decent conversation"

" We don't need to have any conversation. You are my girlfriend. You are supposed to sleep with me. What's there to even talk about?"

"Damien, I don't like your tone. I will go home. Call me, after you have sobered up", I said and tried to free myself. But he embraced me, more forcefully.  

" Damien, let me go " 

"No. You are going to sleep with me today", he said and started lifting the hem of my dress.

"What the fuck, Damien? LET ME GO!", I yelled and forced myself out of his grip.  

"You are not going anywhere! "he said. And in utter shock, before I could even react, I saw him, as he grabbed my hand forced me towards his bed. I couldn't believe what was happening for a moment. Damien....I don't know this face. This is not the person, I love. I couldn't find my voice, before Damien forced me in his bed. He gripped my hand too hard. The pain made me find my voice again.
