I Promise (a Bruno Mars fanfic)

Chapter 13 How didn't I know?

Bruno and I made love that night. After, I snuck back into my room and fell asleep. I was so overly happy. The way he loves me could change at any time. From a teddy bear to a grizzly bear kind of change. I went to bed very satisfied. The next day I apologized to my mom. We made up and life was better than it could ever be.

Weeks passed. Bruno and I hung out everyday after school. My mom went to work with my dad, they went to Chicago for a meeting. They are always somewhere but Hawaii. It's a Friday night and Bruno came over. We were alone in my house. It started to down pour along with thunder and lightning. We played the game Life, and watched a movie in my room. The winds started to really pick up, then the power went out. I started freaking out. I'm always scared to death when the power goes out and I'm home alone, I curled up facing Bruno. He gently put his arms around me and said in such a soothing voice, "It's okay, you're not alone, everything will be fine. I won't let anyone or anything hurt you."

I reached into my nightstand drawer and got a light. I turned it on and went back on the bed. I pressed my body completely up to his and what happens? He feels horny. "Are you horny?" I asked in a teasing way.

"Sweetheart, I'm always horny." he said straight out.

With a huge smile I continued, "I know. We finally are in a big bed. It's a queen bed. Let's do it!" Without hesitation Bruno takes off his shirt. God he was so in shape. His abs were so perfect, a six pack starting. His arms were so strong, his chest was muscular. He took off his pants so now he was only in his boxers. Uh, I was melting away. He was showing so much. Damn, he was hard!

Bruno's P.O.V.

I took my pants off and Noel was just staring at me. She looked like she was thinking. Damn she's so sexy. Her light brown eyes looking at me, her brown hair laying on her shoulders. God I'm so horny. Noel took her shirt off. She's so skinny, her stomach all muscle. Next thing we knew, we're naked and I'm on her. She put her arms around my neck. We kissed and then she moved her arms to my back. I started to go, inching my way in her. Her nails started to scrape my back. Then they completely dug right into me and she screamed, "NO!" I jumped and looked at her. Her eyes were filled with fright and her mouth was open just enough to see her top teeth.

"I'm so sorry. I'll stop." I backed out slowly. She was so stiff of fright that it was hard to get out.

I put my boxers on and Noel sat up and said, "It's not you. You didn't do anything wrong. Please lay back down."

"What is it?" She looked at me and looked down at herself. "What did he do to you?" I asked in a confused, questioning way.

"Nothing. I'm just really sensitive down there like every other girl." Noel insisted.

"No, that scream was of fright, and when I always hit that one spot you whimper."

"IT'S NOTHING." She said very sharply.

"Nah uh. Something's up."

Just then she laid down and said, "You win. See for yourself."

I looked between her legs and right up where they met there were scars. Some on, but mostly aside her groin. I was completely shocked and I just couldn't close my mouth. I looked up at her and said, "When he cut your arms up, that wasn't the first time he took a blade to you, was it?"

"No. He'd cut me so I wouldn't squirm or fight. He didn't care where he cut." she said almost crying. "When you put your dick in me, I just get visions of Andrew. It's not your fault at all. You're not overpowering."

"And I thought I had problems. How didn't I know? I should have known he was hurting you. You never were yourself when you were with him."

"No. It's my fault. I should have told someone... Is that a fist mark?" She said pointing to my stomach at a bruise I had.

"It's nothing Noel. Don't worry."

"No, it's something, and what did you mean by problems? I want the truth."

I cleared my thought and said, "A few guys bullied me around at school. It's nothing major. You have a major problem."

Noel was pissed. "THAT'S NOT OKAY. IF I SEE THAT HAPPEN THEY'LL NEVER DO IT AGAIN..."

"NOEL! Calm down, it's okay."
