Tainted Love ||Stu Macher||

Chapter 19: Boston

Teddy Bear
You were my Teddy Bear
You were comforting and quiet
How did love become so violent
Teddy Bear
You were my Teddy Bear
Everything was so sweet
Until you tried to kill me

After their steamy session, Stu and Lilly had eaten dinner which Stu made. "Mm, this is really good, Stu."

"Did you forget I can cook? Plus, I know you love pasta." Stu replies as he finishes his plate and puts in the sink before returning to Lilly at the table.

"I forgot to ask. Where are we?" Lilly asks as she takes another bite of her food.

"Boston. This is my parents' cabin." Stu takes a sip of his wine. "I wanted some time alone with you, without the possiblity of someone finding out where I am."

Lilly finishes her plate before walking over to the sink and rinising her plate. Stu watches with lustful eyes, biting his lip at the sight of her wearing his shirt and nothing else but panties.

"Staring is rude, y'know?" Lilly says as she turns around and leans against the sink.

Stu chuckles as he stands up and walks over to her, "How can I not? Wearing my shirt and nothing else... It's fucking hot, baby." He pulls her close and grabs her ass.

Lilly bites her lip, slightly. "Stu... we-- we still--" She stutters as he starts kissing her neck. She gently pushes him away, "We still need to talk about what happened that night."

Stu furrows his brows, "What are you talking about?"

Lilly sighs, "Why you attacked me? Why you let Billy stab me? Everything?" She gets out of his grip and walks over to the couch before sitting down.

"Wait, what? I attacked you? Baby, I never attacked you. You disappeared after you went to get beer, I thought it was part of the plan like Billy said." Stu follows her and stands in front of her.

Lilly shakes her head, "I don't believe you. You came in and attacked me. I thought it was just a game you were playing but you came at me with a knife." She crosses her arms.

Stu sighs as he kneels down and takes her hands in his, "Lills, look at me. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I would never do anything to hurt you. That wasn't me."

Lilly shakes her head again as she tries to remember that night.

~Flashback~

Lilly struggles against his grip, trying to push him off. "Stu! Get off me!" She screams into his hand.

He growls before lifting her head and slamming it down on the concrete of the garage, knocking her out. Lilly falls slack against the ground with her eyes closed.

She opens her eyes slightly and sees him take off his mask, seeing a white shirt and blue jacket.

When did he change?

~End Flashback~

"Billy." Lilly growls.

"What?" Stu asks.

Lilly scoffs, "It was Billy. He tricked me. I thought it was you who attacked me and then when you let him stab me--"

"He wasn't supposed to stab you?" Stu asks, confused. "I thought that was part of the plan like you guys said."
