The Truth About You

Part Four

I look into Aaron's eyes with anger. Then he shoves me onto the bed and gets on top of me, holding my hands up so I can't get out of the hold. I squirm in frustration but it doesn't work. I have a plan. I look into Aaron's eyes with pure fear in mine. Aaron is surprised that I'm scared and smirks at me. AARON: "So you do have feelings for me after all." I know he'll try to continue what he started that one summer.
I get a flashback from the time we met last, where I had to hurt Aaron to prevent him from hurting me and regretting it. Then he looked at me with the most pain and guilt in his eyes and said sorry before his brother picked him up. He left me there... standing alone and in so much pain. I balled up all those painful emotions from the both of us and I let them all out. I hunched back to try to lean away from Aaron as my eyes were filled with pure fear.
JANE: "Aaron... No." I say quietly as Aaron leans close to my face. I tried so hard to break through that wall around his heart and reach deep down where he hides everything away. I try to search for the Aaron I knew, the Aaron I saw last before his brother picked him up from our last encounter. The Aaron I saw when he looked into my eyes with the same look I'm giving him. But I couldn't find him. He was gone.
AARON: "Tell me. Tell me you still have feelings for me, Jane." Aaron says to me with a hunger in his eyes. But I just stayed silent. I was in shock, realizing that Aaron had every intention of hurting me. Letting the situation sink in, the fear was no longer from a memory but from the moment now. He really was going to hurt me, there was no way to change his mind. He leaned closer to my face and I turned away from him, unable to look at the person I was seeing now. He was everything everyone said he was.
AARON: "Tell me." Aaron says with more force. But I wouldn't say it, I would never reveal my true fear of him. I had to stay strong if I wanted my plan to work. Realizing that this was not the Aaron I knew made it easier to go through with my plan. This would not hurt me as much as it would hurt him. Aaron leaned back and sat as he had his legs on each side of me. AARON: "Fine, be stubborn. But when I'm done with you, just know that I gave you a chance to walk out of this room... And you didn't take it."
He motioned Damion to come over here. He walked over with handcuffs. I watched in confusion as they both smirked at each other. I realized what was going on as Damion handcuffs my wrists to the head of the bed. Aaron leaned back down and I started to squirm again, trying to get free. The plan was not working at all, I don't have a chance to escape anymore. I didn't think he would go this far.
AARON: "I guess you're all bark, huh? It was all an act wasn't it? The confidence. All those times back then... Even when I was inches from your face and you did not move. It was all an act. So you've finally realized that I'm exactly what everyone said I was. Look at you, you're terrified. There's no way you're getting out this time. Now... Don't fight this and try to stay still. It'll hurt if you move too much." I gulp... I have to try everything. Something has to work.
JANE: "No. I never lie." Aaron looks down at my lips and then back at my eyes. AARON: "Oh really? How come you're afraid of me then? You said you don't have feelings for me... So why don't you hurt me again and get away? Here's the thing... You can't. Because you're too weak. It's dumb as fuck, but you actually believed that there was good in me, you thought I was different. That's where you were wrong. I'm exactly what you're afraid of."
