15. Girl day

W I D O W S E V E N T E E N

The room echoes with my screams, a yelp escapes my mouth only to be silent when a force impact winded me into my stomach, causing me to spit out blood. My tongue darts out running along my busted lip, tasting the red coppery substance. A small wince escapes my throat, gritting my teeth in between my tongue.

A cold rough hand came in contact with my cheek causing my head to snap the other direction. My eyes droop downwards, eyes blurry from tears blinding my eye sight. My head hangs low as i turn my head back towards my abuser, rolling my lip between my teeth.

A hand grips my neck in a tight chokehold, lifting my neck up too look in the eyes of Dreykov's second in command, whom displays a wicked sinister grin. His free hand comes up to my cheek rubbing it affectionately.

"So beautiful for someone so worthless" He murmured, the pad of his thumb continue to caress me gently. While his other hand grasps me so tight that i struggle to breath, starting to see light spots dancing in my vision. Tears whelm up in my eyes, my binding hands behind my back thrash for freedom.

My hands pulling at the binding chains harshly, steel ends of the chair scraping against the floor leaving marks of my want for freedom. Marks beside others who have been in the same position before me.

No matter how hard i try to escape, it only makes me drain my energy faster. The light slowly leaving my eyes. From the slight movement before me, i can slightly make out the smirk and a wide grin plastered on the second in command's face.

Heaving escapes my throat as i continue to thrash, my face screwed up in agony of the lack of oxygen, my airways cut out before-

I snap awake panic arising inside of me not knowing where I am but the sound of Natasha soft whisper at the front of the car answers my question. My eyes blink slightly blinded by the sun light shining through the car window. My eyes turn hazy watching as the tall buildings go by.

The soft tunes on the radio silences out in the background as Natasha and Pepper continue to chat away up front. My hands still shake limply down by my sides, sweat building up on my palms as I try to rub it on to my black ripped jeans.

Natasha and Pepper decided to make the day a girl day only, so they wanted me to experience girl things that I never had the chance to do before. We are on our way to the shopping mall to get some clothes, something casual to do with friends.

I get lost in thought the rest of the way to the mall, when the car comes to a stop. Natasha turns round to me giving me a small smile, I don't return the favour. I open the door, stepping out as the New York City air hits me like a breeze. Luckily today wasn't too cold that I had to wear a big hoodie and a jacket but to wear a white tank top with a dark green flannel jacket.

I brush my hair out of my face, pulling it behind my ear as Natasha and Pepper come round to my side. I puff out a fresh of air as us three walk straight into the mall with our heads held high. My eyes dart to everything inside the Broadway shopping centre, my head moves to glance to see the skyline so high.

My mouth drops open as people rush by into shops, loud noises everywhere I go. Laughter fills my ears as my eyes dart towards a group of girls laughing amongst each other as they past by the three of us. Babies cry as parents try to console them with a bribe to get toys or ice cream. My eyes dart away, feeling an uneasy sadness fill inside of me.

We walk swiftly for a few moments before walking into Macy's, the shop packed with people scurrying to get the best items. I follow like a lost puppy behind Pepper and Natasha as they go off to a certain corner. I tag along with Natasha subconsciously without thinking but the small smile that displays on her face tells me she is happy that I tagged along with her.
