The Fluffy Sofa ✔️

FLASHBACK #3

{content warning}

Zane left 14 year old Octavia on the fluffy sofa that she loved so much. She had passed out and he'd abused her, just like he planned. He made sure her school uniform was back on just how she was when she came. Zane moved away from the sofa; stared at Octavia's unconscious body and smiled. A very sick smile.

He already knew how sick and disgusting he was doing what he was doing. But this was an addiction he wouldn't ever be able to get rid of. It was a sickness that ran deep into his bones. It was a part of him now. Despite Zane understanding how vile and completely horrific he was being, and ultimately knowing that he couldn't keep it up forever, he refused to stop.

Stepping away from Octavia, he picked up the water bottle he makes sure to always give her; made his way into the kitchen to wash his hands and cool down his burning face. His cheeks were bright red from his excitement and the icy feel of the cold water instantly cooled them down. As he dried his hands, his phone began to ring. Caller ID showed it was Ander, his twin brother and Octavia's father.

"Hey man, what's up?" Zane said into the phone.

"Is Octavia with you?" Ander replies.

"Yeah, actually she's just napping on the sofa now, would you like me to wake her?" He glanced over at a now stirring Octavia.

"No, it's okay man, it's just I've been texting her asking if she was still going to see the boyfriend tonight and she wasn't replying. Now I know why," Ander chuckled. If only he knew what he was doing to his little girl, "thanks for looking after her, she must be exhausted."

"Don't worry about it. I treat her as if she's my own child," although Ander couldn't see his face, Zane smirked an evil smirk. Sickening.

Once Zane finished on the phone, he went back into the living room where Octavia was rubbing her eyes, looking confused. She glanced around the room and realised she was still at her uncle's house.

"Woah, how long was I asleep for?" she asked as she stood up to gather her things.

"Long enough, darling," Zane said.

"Well I best get off, Nathan's going to be wondering where I am."

Octavia said her goodbye's to her uncle as he waved her off whilst he ascended the stairs, and she made her way towards the front door. That's when she felt her throat was slightly dry and remembered that she had a bottle of water somewhere that Zane gave her. She peaked into the kitchen and spied the bottle which sat next to the sink. Octavia grabbed the bottle and headed for the door.

As she walked down the street, she began drinking the water, quenching her thirst and aiding her dry throat. Still completely shattered, Octavia made her way towards Nathan's house where she knocked on the door and waited for him. Greeted with open arms, Nathan pulled her into a hug and kissed the top of her head. With a quick 'hello' to his mum, the two of them made their way up the stairs and into his bedroom.

Nathan's bedroom was a typical teenage boys bedroom. Dark blue walls; band posters, and a pile of dirty washing that he had pushed into the corner in some sort of hope that they'd be invisible. His bed was perfectly made and he even had Octavia's favourite blanket laid out on the end, ready for her to snuggle up in when they watched their film together.

"I am so happy to see you," she said, pulling him into a hug. Nathan held her face in both of his hands and stroked her cheeks ever so gently.

"We only saw each other 2 hours ago, babe," he chuckled, before reaching down and kissing her lips. Octavia's stomach did flips. Nathan made her so happy. She thought that perhaps he was the one. His family was perfect and so nice to her and he treated her like an absolute princess. She was so lucky.

The two of them climbed into Nathan's bed and snuggled down to watch a film. Before she knew it, Octavia passed out. When she came to, Nathan was kissing her cheek with a look of pure happiness on his face.

"Why are you so happy?"

"What do you mean?"

"You look really sweaty and weirdly happy," she laughed although she had a strange feeling in the pit of her stomach.

"We just had sex for the first time? Is that not something to be happy about? Was I bad?!" Nathan looked completely freaked out. He held his head in his hands and shook it.

"No we definitely didn't."

"Yes we did. How do you explain the fact we're both naked and I've just taken a dirty condom off?" Nathan laughed, however looking at Octavia's face, he realised that she truly believed that they didn't have sex. They did.

"You raped me then?" Octavia began silently crying and she pulled on her clothes, feeling disgusting.

"Oh the fuck I did! You were talking to me. We were talking dirty. You were totally into it! You never once showed me any reason to stop. If you did I would have!" Nathan was flabbergasted. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. He loved Octavia with all his heart and he wouldn't take advantage of her.

"We're 14 we shouldn't have sex and I certainly didn't have sex with you!"

Octavia left Nathan's house and she definitely called that a break up. From what she can remember she fell asleep in Nathan's arms and woke up naked and him telling her they had sex. She was freaked out. Her whole body was slick with sweat from being with Nathan and the pure anxiety of not know what the fuck happened.

She held in most of her tears until she got home and made her way straight to the bathroom where she jumped in the shower and scrubbed her whole body. There was no way in hell that she had sex and couldn't remember it. That was impossible. Nathan was obviously lying. But he didn't seem like he was lying. But surely she'd remember. Why couldn't she remember?

Octavia pushed all her thoughts to the back of her mind and got ready to get into bed. As she climbed in and cosied in with all of her fluffy cushions and blankets, her phone buzzed indicating a text. She grabbed her phone and looked at the screen. Her heart broke into more pieces than it already had.

Nathan: Fuck you, you slag. I know you were only pretending to not remember so you can tell everyone you're still a virgin. I'm going to tell everyone. Oh, and if you hadn't already realised, we're over.
