Lovin You

Chapter 10

Kota's Pov
When I open the bag I see a pair of red hi-tops, a Bulls snapback..make that two.
"Babe you didn't have to get all this. Matter of fact any of it." I say
"You deserve it." She says
I put everything back in the bag and pull her into a hug. She hugs me back and I kiss her cheek.
"What's wrong babe?" I say
"Nothing."
"Nope I don't believe you. Tell me what's going on with you."
"You have to promise you won't get mad."
"I can't but I'll try."
"Trevor raped me in my house the night that I came to your house." She says

"Raped me.." It kept playing in my head

I'm fuming right now and I'm shaking like hell.
"He did that to you?" I say
She nods and tears fall down her face.
I start pacing. I'm gonna whoop his ass.

"Please don't do anything to him. I-. I love him." Zendaya says
I stop pacing almost as if she told me to.
"You love him? Then why were you with me?" I ask
"Because.." She starts
"Because what?" I say beyond furious
"Because I needed a distraction from him." She says "You were perfect."
"I fell in love with you in a couple days. I gave you my all and you do this to me? I fucking love you Zendaya. I love you. With all my heart. With all my soul. My heart aches without you. My soul is weak without you. I'm nothing without you. Don't you get that?" I say "And all I was to you is a distraction. I can't believe this. I turned down girls for you. I'm the only one thats getting hurt in the process. Damn you." I say
She's in a full break down now "I'm so sorry. I didn't want you to get hurt."
"Yeah I'm sorry too. Happy Birthday to me, huh?" I say before walking away

Tears fall down my face as I leave the bag she gave me and walk home.

At home

I go in the house to find a pair of keys cant be my moms she doesn't own a Chevy. I take the keys and walk into the garage and there sits a red Camaro ZL1.
"Thanks ma." I say
I get in the car and drive to Dinah's house. When I get there Dinah is walking back from the mailbox. I get out the car to see a surprised Dinah.
"Wow nice ride." She says
"Thanks." I say
We walk in the house and Camila runs up to me to hug me.
"Hey Papi." She says with her arms around my neck
"Hey babe." I say with my arms around her waist
She releases me slowly "What's wrong Kota?" Dinah says
"Tell you after I change." I say running up the stairs
I change into some saggy camouflage pants and a sports bra. When I walk downstairs I see Zendaya.
"What do you want Zendaya?" I say
"I came to bring your things. I bought them as a birthday present and I want you to keep them." She says
"I don't care what you want." I say "But if that'll make you leave then fine."
"I really didn't mean to hurt you." She says before leaving
I sit on the steps and tears run down my face. Dinah and Mila come to my sides.
"What happened?" Mila asks
"What did she do to hurt you?" Dinah asks

I tell them what happened and they hold me. I can't help but feel a hollow spot in my chest.
"I'm so sorry." Mila says
"Aww its okay. We'll be here for you." Dinah says
"Thanks guys. I'm gonna take a little nap." I say
"I'll come with you?" Mila said
I nodded and she grabbed my hand together we walked up stairs
"I'm gonna make lunch." Dinah says
"Alright. Love you DJ." I say
"Love you too Kota."
Mila takes me to the guest room and lays me down. I wasn't feeling all energetic. She takes off her clothes and changes into a long t-shirt. All the way to her knees. She climbs in the bed and lays down beside me.
She kisses my cheeks and I couldn't stop the tears that fell.
"I'm so sorry Kota." She says
She wipes my face and she hugs me. I hug her back before I cuddle up in to her. She and I both fall asleep. With tear stained faces. I'm happy she asked to stay with me I didn't want to be alone.
