Trapped (1D and JB horror)

Chapter 16: The Truth

WOW Two updates in less than 24 hours? Is this a record? I think so. I'm clapping for myself, usually I'm the slowest updater in the world.

In the book that I'm reading, The Dark Endeavor, (It's a prequel to Frankenstein) there's a quote on the back that says, "There's a passion in you that scares me." So that's the quote for this chapter. You'll see why soon enough.

This chapter is one of the shorter ones, sorry 'bout that.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ALSO THERE'S A REALLY IMPORTANT AUTHORS NOTE AT THE END AND I WOULD LOVE IT IF YOU READ IT.~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He was silent for a moment, and that's what scared me. What was going through his mind right now?

"What?"

Justin's voice was quiet and it cracked at the end. I know he wanted me to tell him I was kidding, I was only just pulling his leg and that I wasn't being serious. Or that I just said that because I was really insane. He wanted me to tell him that I'm clean, and I didn't go behind his back when he gave me nothing but all of his heart and everything else. 

I couldn't do that. I couldn't lie to him yet again. He needed to know right now, and he needed to know it all.

"You know what I said Justin, and I don't aim to repeat myself."

I watched his face as it morphed into shock and horror. That wasn't what he wanted to hear, and I knew that reality set in. He fumbled for words to say, his mouth opening and closing like a fish out of water, little sputtering noises escaping him.

I watched him spin on his heel and stalk out of the closet. Then I heard the impact of his fist on the wall outside, and his heavy footsteps as he came back in. I let him force me up against the dusty wall of the closet thing we were in, his fingers digging into my hips as he held me there. And I seen the sunlight from the setting sun emitting through small window hit Justin's sparking brown eyes that were raging.

"What do you mean, Tori? You cheated on me?"

He lowered his lips onto my exposed collarbone, kissing the area softly before his taunting voice whispered, "that's not fair, now is it?"

He raised his head and looked right into my eyes, our faces just centimeters away. 

"Tori, with who?"

"Does it really matte-"

"With who?"

"Harry!" I shouted. "It was Harry, right when they came. We kissed. That was about it. But I did it. Are you happy now that you know the truth, Justin? Are you finally fucking happy?"

"No, Tori. I'm not. When I sang to you, I did all of that for you, you had just kissed your ex. I had poured my heart out to you, snd then you cried. You told me that no matter how much your retarded ass messes up, you'll love me. And I told you that you were the best girl a guy could have . . . but you cheated on me. With Harry."

Justin's hands left my hips as they ensnared themselves into my hair. He crashed his lips onto mine in a forceful kiss that took my breath away. I kissed him back with as much passion, hoping it would tell him that I did love him, and that the thing that happened with Harry was a mistake.

When he finally tore his lips away, they went to my jawline and placed rough kisses on it.

"Can Harry make you feel like this, Tori? I know only I can make you feel like this. The Tori I know always loved it when I kissed her jaw, and her neck. No hickeys, no biting, just kissing."

His lips left my jawline and went to my neck, and the feel of his lips against my hot skin was driving me even deeper into insanity. What he said was the truth, only Justin made me feel this way. I know it wasn't right of me to think of this right now, but angry Justin is a very hot Justin. Even in this situation the boy managed to turn me on. 

He lifted his head and our brown eyes connected before he tore away and said, "don't think I'm forgiving you just yet. But first, I need to have a little chat with Harry."

He rushed out of the room, and I followed him hastily. I knew that he wouldn't just have a "little chat" with Harry. there was something in his eyes that scared me. I knew he was out for blood.

"Justin, don't!" I put my hand on his shoulder, but he shook it off effortlessly. Now would be the time for me to regret ever telling Justin the truth. He was going to make a big scene, and I knew he was going to hurt Harry. He was on a rampage, and I couldn't stop it. I was powerless.
