Aurora
I looked in the cloudless night sky above me and contemplated going back inside before one of them came out looking for me. I should go back in before Lucas comes out maybe it'll save me some bruises.
How did I get to this point. Please God give me a reason to continue because I don't have one anymore.
I took a deep breath, spun on my heels, and walked back to the front door.
I opened the door and the very first sight I was met with was Ares choking the life out of Lucas.
Well deserved.
The fact that I enjoyed the sight of Lucas on the verge of unconsciousness for a change didn't stop me from walking up to them. If Ares went on for much longer I know Lucas would surely die.
" Ares." He froze immediately"Put him down". A second later Lucas dropped to the floor in a fit of coughs. Clutching his neck.
" Aurora," He turned around to look at me." Who is he?"
" He's my boyfriend I thought that was already established-"
" You didn't establish it with me. Why should I believe a boy I just met over you?"
I stammered as I tried to find a way to respond." I- I don't know," I said" Im just stressed right now I can't do this. Not right now Ares."
"Do what Aurora, Talk to me? Why haven't I heard about this boy until 10 minutes ago?" He was really pushing my fucking buttons and the worst part is.. it's not even him. I'm just extremely overstimulated. The dreams, Lucas, this whole fucking situation I'm in now. Ares constantly asking me questions every 30 seconds was just the cherry on top in the moment.
" Because you weren't fucking here Ares," I snapped" You've been gone 3 whole goddamn years without so much as a phone call and you show up out of nowhere wanting to know every damn thing about my life. And when I don't tell you about it...You get mad like you're not the one who disappeared for 3 years of this fucking life that you wanna know so much about. You could've been here to know everything and if you had called me or even just left a message you could have known the answers to all the stupid fucking questions you're asking me!" I breathed heavily.
He looked at me with an expression that i've never seen before on his face. He looked hurt. I was the one who caused that.
I had snapped out of my overwhelming fit and realized what I had just done. I reached towards him "Shit... I'm sorry Ares I ju-" he stepped back with a stoic expression" No. You're right. I left and its not fair of me to barge back into your life and expect things from you. Have a good night Aurora." He spun on his heels and headed toward his designated room.
Fuck.
Meanwhile Lucas had recovered from his previously injured state and gripped the absolute shit out of my hair.
Double fuck.
,,,
I gripped his hands as I struggled to breathe." L-lucas please"
" When I tell you to do something you fucking do it! I tell you to call me and I don't hear from you all damn day and I show up and you're dancing with a man I've never seen before. I tell you to come here and what did you do? You walked right past me."
He took away his tight grip around my neck and threw me onto the floor. I struggled to regain oxygen as I coughed.
He leaned down and pulled my head back by my hair. His grip so hard I was sure when I looked into the mirror my scalp would be bloody.
" I-I'm s-sorry" I forced out. He stared at me with cynical look in his eye." oh you're sorry?"
I nodded rapidly the best I could as I could barely move my head.
" Hm... Okay I forgive you for not listening." I let out a breath I didn't know I had been holding in.
" Now that I've forgiven you for being disobedient let's move on to more pressing matters" I sucked in a breath." Are fucking that man behind my back?" My eyes widened. " w-what? no"
A split second after the words left my lips my head jerked to the right. The rest of my body hit the ground. He grabbed me by my feet and flipped me over so he could straddle my waist.
" Stop lying!" He demanded, preparing to land another punch." Are you fucking him?" My head snapped to the left as another hit landed." No! No! I swear. I've known him since I was 14. He just came back from a 3 year trip!"
" Are you telling the truth?" He questioned
" y-yes I swear" I stated through the tears. He stood up and looked down at me.
"Alright." As soon as I thought he was about to leave he kicked me hard in the stomach." That's for letting that bitch boy put his hands on me." He drew his foot back and kicked me again." And that's for being disobedient."
He bent down and kissed my cheek as I flinched. " Goodbye sweetie I love you. Call me first thing in the morning."
He grabbed his jacket and left.
After 10 minutes of just laying on the floor I decided to go to the bathroom to clean up.
I looked in the mirror and flinched at the sight of myself. Though, I've been put in this state many times by Lucas; it always seems to affect me as if it's the first time.
Surprisingly my scalp wasn't bleeding. but I had a few bruises on my face and neck. Nothing I couldn't cover up with makeup though.
I took off my dress and stared at my stomach. The bruises on my abdomen were clearly visible and huge.
I would just have to avoid showing my stomach off for a couple weeks.
How hard could that be?
