Unspoken Truth

"Bri!"Darien called out for the third time as I was still wrapped up in my comforter, sleeping like a baby.

His voice shaky as I forced myself to get up and walked towards his room.

"Urgghhhhhh" I groaned like a little kid peeking through his door
"It's 1:16 a.m,Darien.What's the issue with you?"

"Bathroom!"is all he said holding his stomach while clamping his mouth and I immediately knew what he meant.

I immediately run to him and helped him where he started puking into the toilet.

I stood by the door,too tired to help him further when I suddenly got the edge of questioning him.

I knocked on the door

"Hey,I wanted to ask,Why did you drink if you know you'll puke?"
"Didn't you know that you'll end up puking?"
"Why did you drink in the first place?"
"Is this the first time you threw up?"

"Shut the hell up" he says with a harsh tone while stepping out, wiping his mouth with a tissue.

"When exactly did you see me drunk?"he asked looking at me

I frown at him while he raises an eyebrow

"Speak to me"he says angrily

I shook my head

He told me to 'shut the hell up' which I was doing.

"Speak or i'll-"he points his index finger warningly while I continuously shook my head again

"You better talk to me else I'll make you suffer and it'll taste worse than the spoilt tomatoes I gave you"he demanded, stepping closer to me

I walked backwards,still shaking my head in disagreement till my back hit against the wall.

He grabbed my arm and started twisting it,as he lowered his face down to me.

"Still not gonna talk?"

I cry out in pain as he still twists my arm with a tight grip.

"Ow,ow you're hurting me, Darien.You're not better than Byron" I said struggling to loosen his grip.

He lets go of my hand and looks at me with regret,then he does the unthinkable.

"I'm sorry.Did I hurt you?"he asked while looking for any marks on my arm

Now I'm sorry.Did he just apologize???

"Get away from me"I shout , pushing him with the energy I didn't even know I had in me, making him fall

"Am sorry I didn't mean to-"

"Yeah of course you didn't!
YOU TOLD ME TO SHUT UP AND THAT'S WHAT I DID!WHAT WAS THE NEED TO ATTACK ME GODDAMNIT!
WHY THE HELL IS IT HARD FOR-"
I was cut off by the hug Darien embraced me before I could continue.

"Am sorry ,am so so sorry.I didn't mean to hurt you.Am sorry.I wasn't ok yesterday and the fire reminded me of my parents and I didn't wanna feel anything so I just decided to get drunk and I was angry today coz everything kinda sucks and I wish I wasn't such idiot ,I didn't mean to hurt you am sorry Bri."

But before I could say anything,I noticed that he was silently crying in my shirt

And God I just wanted to punch him for hurting me but you know when you have a good side in you, you don't care what the person did and as good as I was I started rubbing his back.

"Shhh it's ok.I didn't mean to bring your parents into this.Now let's forget this and lemme go make you some breakfast k?"
I said pulling him away and wiping his tears away

I turned around and started walking towards the door when he stopped me
"Bri?"

'Yeah" I said turning around to face him
"I um..." He said nervously avoiding eye contact

"You what?''

"I um... am kinda bruised right now,I um kinda run into alot of things when I was drunk yesterday,so um if u could maybe..."

"Yh ok I'll be right back"I said and walked to get the first aid kit.

But when i got back,I think my eyes almost fell out.

Darien was sitting on his bed shirtless and did I already say that the moonlight was giving light to his amazing face with the perfect jawline,those sea green eyes and messy hair plus the view of his perfect defined abs .

It took me a few seconds to get out of my trance when I noticed that he was looking at me with the most annoying smirk.

"Like what you see?" He said with a chuckle

"Yh, I see a very bruised Darien which I wanted to make myself."I said trying to hide my blushing face.

He just chuckled and turned around so his back was facing me

I slowly made my way to him and sat behind him
Even his back looked amazing-
Snap out of it Bri!
My inner self literally shouted at me.

I started treating his bruises on his back
And even though I was done,I still sat there and rubbed my hand on his bruises,looking at two tattoos that he had.

One was a broken heart with a black crack in it.

The other one was behind his neck which I now noticed which said "You<3".

I used my index finger to trace the tattoo until his hand grabbed me and pulled me closer to him while he turned around a little to face me.

He brought his mouth to my ear and whispered "if you keep doing that I might lose myself"he said in a husky and low voice.

But before I could do anything,I felt his lips on my neck
"D-Darien I -I ..."

"What Bri?"he said in that low voice with his head still at my neck.

"Oh god , please s-s-stop".I said as a sigh left my lips

I could still feel him sucking my neck for a few seconds and then he let go.

"Bri i-" he started but I interrupted him

"A-Am going to bed now"
"Goodnight" I said with a sigh unable to control the disappointment nor the blushing on my face

I stood up and walked to my room ,threw myself on my bed and stared at the ceiling till I fell asleep with my thoughts.
