Trapped - Malachi Barton

15

~Olivia's POV~

I walked into my room grabbing everything I think I'll need. And putting into a duffle bag, and grabbing my back pack.

I walked downstairs with all my things. "okay I'm done." Malachi looked up from his phone. "okay lets go" he said while jumping up.

we listened to a on the way back. oh shoot, I need to text chlo.

"Hey Chloe is it okay if comes over tommorow" I asked. to Malachi as we walked in. "I'm fine with that" he said. 

"do you want help putting things away" Malachi asked. "no I think I'm fine, thank you though" I gave him a small smile.

He walked me to the guest room, his mom was making the bed. "thank you so much again, Mrs.Barton" I said setting down my stuff.

"I know its been a while since I have seen you, but you can still call me Felicia" she said giving me a quick hug.

"okay" i said before sending her a small smile.

~time skip after putting stuff away~

After I was done stuffing everything away I flopped on my bed. I look down at my wrists. why do I mess everything up? I mean come on Liv your just prooving your point that, your an attention seeking whore. He doesnt like you, he feels bad.  I reminded myself.

I wipe a tear that silently fell down my cheek, when I hear a knock on my door. "come in" I said loud enough for them to hear.

"its me" Malachi said appearing through the door. "are you situated?" he asked sitting beside me on the bed.

"yeah I am now" I said. I wanted to say so much to him, but I didn't have anough courage. "cool, uh how are you doing?" he asked.

"I'm doing fine."I said, in all honesty my head is killing me and I feel like I'm going to pass out any second. I havent ate anything today, or yesterday.

We sat in silence for a while. "you know you don't have to feel bad for me, right?" I said not looking up from my hands.

"what?" he said looking at me confused.  "I mean I get it, especially after last night why you would, but Im fine. You don't have to feel sorry that Im a shit case" I said fidgeting with my hands not looking at him.

"who said I feel sorry for you?" he asked. "I'm not sorry, well I'm sorry for everything you have to go through, but because of that I'm worried you'll dig a whole so far down, where its to late." he said.

I look at him finally, and my eyes meet his.

"but that's the thing Mal, I'm fine I promise last night I had no control over myself and it was stupid it wont happen again. there is nothing to worry about" I said reassuring.

"how about the night terrors, Chloe said you get them alot, but besides with me. and you have them to the point to where your scared to sleep." he asked.

I shake my head, "Chloe is just  worried I'm fine, and they are just stupid dreams, I just have a bad sleep schedule." I said.

He just stared at me, I could tell he was contemplating on believing me. He finally said, "promise?" he asked. I froze, no, you cant make promises that you cant keep.

"yes."

He smiled at me, "oh yeah by the way dinner is done, and before you say anything, your eating, even if you aren't hungry."  he said standing up, and then grabbing my hand softly to pull me up, but being cautious of wrists.

I let out a sigh "okay." 

When we walked in, we see Loren, Malachi's dad talking with Felicia. He looked up from his wife, and gave me huge smile before walking over to me giving me a hug.

"hey, kiddo how you doing." he said. "I'm doing okay, how are you?" I said while hugging back.

"I'm good" we all sat at the table, Felicia made spaghetti, which was so good.

Me and Malachi sat next to each other, while Felicia and Loren across from us.

"so when is your mom supposed to be back" Felicia asked me. "um, I think in 2 weeks or something like that. It changes up so, I don't really keep my hopes up." I said shrugging.

"well, however long, I'm happy your here with us. I missed having you around here." she said smiling.

"I'm really happy I'm here as well" I said before taking a bit eof my food.

"Im glad, Malachi is stepping up his game the last girl he brought here, what was her name again..oh Jenny, yeah that's right, wasn't really a fan of her, no offense Malachi." his mom said laughing.

My heart dropped, and I looked down at my plate, i totally forgot about her and Malachi, I forgot they were a thing. she probably wants to kill me for taking Malachi away from her at the dance.

from the corner of my eye, I see Malachi looking at me, but I ignored it and started a new conversation with them.

"when we found out, you and Malachi were freinds again, this lady over here wouldn't stop talking about how happy she was." Loren said laughing, side eyeing Felicia.

"what I couldn't help it" Felicia said shrugging. "remember it was a few weeks ago, and the morning after a party, Mk and skye were sleeping over, but then Luke came in with Chloe, and asked me where Liv was and, Mk said you guys were sleeping together." she said smiling widely, wiggling her eyebrows at Mal. My face went red.

I looked over at him, his face was bright pink, from embarrassment. "momm, don't make it weirder than it really is" he groaned covering his face with his hands. Is he embarrassed that we fell asleep together?

"um speaking of Chloe, can she come over tomorrow?" i asked. "and Mk, Skye, and Luke." Mal asked. "what about Jenny, don't you want her there?" I asked him.

"nah, I like it better without her." he said looking at me.

"anyways, yes they can they are always welcome over." Felicia said, with Loren nodding his head in approval.

"okay, great I'll go tell them" Malachi said getting up from his seat grabbing his plate then mine.

I helped clean up after dinner after, me and Felicia put on 'Pitch Perfect'.

~after movie~

After, the movie I got ready for bed and layed down. I closed my eyes, hoping fr the best in the morning.
