His sunflower

chapter 15

Abby's Pov

It's been a few days. I've calmed down. Matt has calmed down. We're good now. I've decided to just listen to him so I can stop having to cover up bruises. Josh should be out of my life now. Everything is going good. For now anyway. Sierra is making me go to another one of Lahey's party. Apparently his parents are out of town and he throws and I quote "killer parties bruh" I wanted to decline the offer because you know Josh will probably be there but she wouldn't allow it. So here I am. Getting ready for a party. That I don't want to go to.

Since I didn't want to go I didn't try with my outfit. Jeans and a T-shirt will do. Some nike blazers and my hair up in a clip. Basic and comfy. Perfecto. Waiting for Sierra to pick me up I read a book. Right now I'm reading Turtles All The Way Down by John Green. Hasn't broken my heart yet.

It took Sierra about an hour to get here because I was ready wayyyy before her obviously. When she got here I grabbed my purse and went to her car.

"Hey CiCi"

"Hey babe"

When I got in the car I instantly heard my favorite song and wasted no time before singing it.

If the tide takes California
I'm so glad I got to hold ya
And if the sky falls from heaven above
Oh I know I had the best time falling into love
We've been living on a fault line
And for a while you were all mine
I've spent a lifetime giving you my heart
I swear that i'll be yours forever
till forever falls apart
Till forever falls apart

I freaking love that song. Ashe is such a good singer/songwriter. Anyways it took about another 15 minutes to get to Lahey's house. We were 5 minutes early but still so many people were there. I could already see the drunk teens dancing up on each other. Some making out in front of everyone. You know normal teenager parties.

Sierra and I made our way through the crowd of drunk teenagers and tried to find Maddy. We had no success so we assumed she wasn't there yet. She found her "not yet boyfriend" and said she'd be right back. I knew the real meaning behind that. Which is I'm gonna go make out with him be back in a few hours. Im fine with it though. It happens every time.

30 minutes pass and i'm still alone. Sitting on the counter in the kitchen. Sipping on some soda. When the person I didn't want to see walks into the kitchen. Josh.

At first he doesn't see me so i try to hide my face. Not making eye contact. Basically acting like i'm not there in hopes he's too drunk to realize that i'm in here.

"Abby?"

Rats. crap. what do I do here.

"hey"

"I didn't think you'd be here"

"I didn't wanna be"

"ah, ok"

Then it was just awkward silence.

"Well need some company?"

"no i'm okay go enjoy the party"

He's drunk. But still sober? I don't even know. He's drunk enough to where he probably doesn't know what he's doing but sober enough to like not slur with his words. I don't even know.

"Well I just wanna show you something. You have no reason to trust me but I swear I just wanna show you something."

"This isn't even your house though..?"

"Yes but i'm always hanging out here. Lahey's like a brother to me"

"uh... okay fine."

So yea worst mistake of the night. No my life. Basically I walked upstairs with him. No one was up here and if they were they were in a room having sex.He takes me down a little farther but he says something like "I know this seems creepy but I put it in a room people don't go in to have sex"

So I felt a little better. Maybe he was just in a phase dating me. Maybe he's changed now. Maybe he's trustworthy.... nope I was so wrong. We got to the room and he holds the door open for me. I step in and he um.. locks the door. But he tried to be quiet about it. He didn't want me to know he locked the door.

"So it's right over here" he said pointing to a side of the room

It just looked like a wall to me but I followed him nonetheless. Then when I got close to the wall he pinned me to it. I knew I shouldn't have followed my psychotic ex boyfriend upstairs and down a hallway. How stupid could I be? Of course after pinning me down he forcefully kissed me but it isn't one of those sweet slow kisses these are rough and hungry kisses. He wants sex and doesn't care if I want it too. I don't care what he thinks, I refuse to give this man my virginity.

I used all my strength to push him off. He didn't budge. He took off my shirt somehow during those moments. Now i'm standing here getting kissed by someone who tastes like alcohol in just my bra. This is not how I wanted tonight to go. I already got assaulted by him I am not about to get raped by the same person. So while he is kissing and biting my neck and collarbone I knee him in the balls. He stumbles back and I slap him across the face. I then proceed to run out the door.

"Abby wait!"

I ignored him and kept running down the hall

"Please Abby wait"

"Go fuck yourself!"

And so I ran downstairs and then outside. I then proceeded to walk home even though it took me 45 minutes. I told Sierra I was leaving and then didn't look back. Instead I went home and went to sleep. Hoping it will take the memory of today with it.

The next day I woke up not wanting to go to school. I don't wanna see Josh. I have a plan though. Sadly it involves Johnny because he sits next to me first period. But I need to do this. I need Josh to leave me alone. I had my mom drive me to school so I didn't have to see Johnathan yet. I need time to mentally prepare myself for what I'm about to ask him.

I took my sweet time getting to first period. I walk in right before the bell rings. I take my seat but I don't see Josh. Perfect.

Then out of the corner of my eye I see Josh stroll on like he's king of the world. I quickly turn to Johnathan and say what I need to say before Josh gets close enough to hear.

"JohnnyIknowyouhatemebutpleasefakedatemesoJoshleavesmealone" I finish out of breath

"what?" He stared at me confused

"Johnny, please be my fake boyfriend. I'll explain later but even just for this period. I need your help."

"You.. need.. my... help..?"

"Yes."

"how the turns have tabled" he says with too cocky of a grin

"just please Josh is coming in. I need him to leave me alone." I say with way to much desperation in my voice

"hmmm"

"Johnnnnnyyyyyyy"

"..."
