Nothing Without You

Chapter 3*

* A/N NOTE!!! This is a big time skip!! It has been four years and you will learn more later on in the chapter about what happened in those years.*

Of course today was the same day of four years ago. It was graduation day again but this time I was graduating from a collage. I have been very lucky to be able to graduate as I have not really tried my best. I was just about to head out the door before I got a text. It was just Kate telling me congrats and good luck. She and I have been staying in contact ever since I left, but she had done something that I never wished she would do. As for Tom and Haz, I have tried to keep in contact with them but since Tom's career has been taking off I had stopped talking to them because they would never text back. I was looking at my empty apartment that I was so ready to leave.

I just got home from my last class of the day and I was just about to turn on the T.V. to see what was on the news when I got an alert about Tom and apparently his new girlfriend. I get random articles about him so that I still know what's going on in his life. I decided to look deeper and some tears started to form in my eyes, of course I was happy for him but I was sad that he found someone else that wasn't me. I looked at the article and they said it was just some random girl in the car making out with him but I looked closer at who the girl was and I found out that it was Kate. I instantly threw my phone across the room, she said that she had lost contact with him when I left, she said that I was the person holding the whole friend group together.

As I looked at the couch that had been placed in front of a table, I started to remember all the bad memories that I had here and I couldn't wait to leave them behind. I grab my shoes and head out the door. When I was going down to my car another memory hit me.

I was just about to get into my car to go to a study date with a friend. But I was instantly taken into somebody's grasp. I tried to scream but they put some type of cloth over my mouth and nose and I knew what he was trying to do. I tried to hold my breath but I couldn't hold it for long. After about 2 minutes of me struggling I gave up and just let the chemicals rush into my lungs.

When I woke up I was very confused as I looked around and saw that I was tied to a wall. I gazed over to my left and noticed a man who didn't look happy. I looked down and realized all of my clothing that I had on earlier was all gone. I knew exactly what was happening and I tried to scream. He then said "That won't help you, no one will hear you from down here." I gave up and started crying. He had raped me.

Ever since then I have always been careful about getting to my car. I didn't want anything like that to happen again. As I got to the school I saw my parents car with them sitting in it, grinning like they had just found out that I dropped my dream of being an actress. I never gave up on that dream. I have tried many times to get a job but whenever I did they would be tiny parts and they would never really need me. I went inside, grabbed my cap and gown and went to the field.

Once the ceremony was over my parents came up to me and said that they were so proud of me and that they can't wait for me to become an actual lawyer. I finally had the guts to stand up to them and said " You know what... no! I am not going to become a lawyer, yes I may have taken the proper amount of schooling you need to be one but I am never going to be a lawyer!" I looked at my dad's face and I had never seen him so mad. " You will and are going to be a lawyer that stupid dream of yours that you want to be a actress is never going to work. You're not as talented as Tom was and is." My dad said. My heart dropped as I knew this was going to happen. " You know what I know that you think that I am worthless and non-talented but I have always wanted to be an actress. I don't care if I get famous or not. I love doing it, I understand that you are my parents but you do not get to decide what I do in my life." I spat at my dad.

Later that day I decided that I would move to L.A. and try to get a job there. When I got there I found a pretty decent apartment in a good neighborhood. I went to get a job at a simple coffee shop so that I could pay rent until I get an acting job. I heard that Marvel was looking for a daughter for Tony Stark. It's for their new movie Infinity War and Tony has found his long lost daughter. I decided to audition because I love Marvel and I think it would get my acting career up pretty quickly.

The auditions were in 2 days so I had plenty of time to go and practice the lines that I was given to audition. I went home from the cafe' and decided to practice. The lines were pretty simple and easy to memorize. I was looking at my lines and learned that it was at a part where Tiffany (Tony's Daughters name) was meeting Tony.

~~~~ 2 day later ~~~~

Today was the day of auditions, I was nervous but also excited for what could come out of this. I went into the building and to the front desk and asked "Where do I go for the Tiffany Stark auditions?" The receptionist replied with "Right down that hall and take a left at the first hallway then one more left and the restrooms." I nodded and said " Thank you" Then went to where the auditions were taking place. I waited until they called my name and went into the room.

After my audition they told me that I would be called by them if I made the cast. I said "Thank you" and left the building and went to my apartment to relax a little while until my shift at the cafe'.

The next day I was getting ready to go to another shift at the cafe when I got an unknown caller. I answered and said "hello?" On the other side of the phone I heard "Hello! This is the Russo brothers, we are sorry to inform you about this but....."
