Chapter 28

*CRINGE TW*

*Amaras POV*

-Mine-

"What's wrong" He was concerned his voice said it all. My right eye was the eye that had gotten hurt so he couldn't see it.

He had stopped driving, we had parked at some restaurant.

Really I can not go into there with my eye. They will think he hit me or something and I couldn't ever let him be accused of something that vile.

I clear my throat trying to get it to not waver, "What do you mean?" Thank god for zero stutter. That should have been pretty convincing.

"I heard you make a noise so what's wrong." I search my mind for an excuse, a lie, "I bit my tongue" I said but it was more of a question since I didn't know if should keep up the lie.

I really don't want to be a burden or have him worry about me. I also don't want him to kill anyone because the extent he goes to tells me that he would for sure kill someone.

Even for the smallest things.

I'm also afraid that he will see me as annoying or someone that needs pity all of the time.

"Why are you lying?" He places his arm on the top of the steering wheel and the other on the center console, "I-I'm not" My head throbbed to badly I feared it was going to fall off.

My eye stung, I could see in the review mirror that my eye had begun to turn purple, "Why wont you look at me?"

Because your ugly.

Just kidding.

It's time to stop stalling, "Amara, look at me" His tone showed me that he wasn't asking and certainly wouldn't take no for an answer.

I lift my head a little bit and hold turn my head the slightest look at him from the corner of my eye.

"All the way" I honestly don't have a choice now, I turn my head all the way, I was getting scared and both nervous that he was going to get mad at me.

It was obvious that he was angry he was white knuckling the steering wheel and his face was set in a scowl.

"What the fuck" His large cold hand cups my face, he leans in closer to examine my eye, "Who did this?" His hand was still on my face.

I couldn't even look him in they eye, I felt so guilty for lying to him when I could have just told him the truth but I was too nervous too.

"It's okay it's really my f-fault" I need to talk slower so he understands me, "How could this be your fault." I could tell he was trying to calm himself down but it was hard for him to do so.

"I went to give t-the the guys baby back, I tapped on his shoulder and then he elbowed me in the eye. I think it was a reflex." I clear my throat.

"He didn't care until he saw your ring on my finger and thought I was your wife so he ran off." The words tasted weird in my mouth but they were true.

"Do know his name." He asks suddenly, "I-I think it was Maddox" He shakes his head, "Okay"

Oh my god I just killed a man.

My eyes widened but both quickly locked themselves shut due to the immense pain. I cover my right eye with my hand.

"Please don't be mad" I whispered, I was not even sure he heard me, "I'm not mad at you" He says promisingly, "Why would I be" I shake my head.

"I lied, and I feel like I'm bothering you" I pry my hands away from my eye blinking a couple of times trying to get my eyes to stop watering.

"Why would you ever feel like you bother me?" He started up the car and pulled out of the parking lot.
