The Beast's Angel

Chapter 5-- Abuse

5- Abuse

Jane's POV

That night my parents didn't spare me from the very long lectures. Talking about how I should be careful around boys. How I can't just trust anyone and alot of other crap. They didn't trust Luca, just like everyone else, but he was my friend, even if it was for a short time. We had fun together. He won me the teddy that I wanted and even got me a necklace. I was cheap, yes, but the gesture itself made me happy.

The whole night I wasn't able to sleep. My mind kept on drifting to Luca's father. He looked like a very important and intimidating man. A look from him sent shivers down my spine. I wanted to know if Luca was alright aince he probably fell into teoyble becauae of me, and so, I wanted tomorrow to come faster.

I wish I never proposed the idea of us ditching school.

The next day I hastily put on a random outfit, white skinny jeans and a hot pink button up shirt. I let my hair fall loose, wore the necklace Luca gave me, put on my flats and quickly made my way out of the house.

"Jane! Put on a jacket." My mother yelled from the kitchen. I ticked my tongue and grabbed my thick, white coat on the way. I wasn't going to argue with her today and I definitely am not going back to my room.

I sped walked to school and made my way to math class. Luca wasn't in my math class so I had to wait for English.

Math seemed to drag on for forever. It's just not ending and I was on the verge of killing someone any minute

The bell finally rang and I practically ran to English. I was the first one in. I took my seat and kept on shaking my leg, my eyes never leaving the door.

Students came inside, filling the room. I looked at all the faces trying to locate Luca but nada.

The bell rang again and our English teacher started the class but there was still no sign on Luca.

The whole day passed like that. Me looking everyone fore Luca and him not showing up. During lunch I went up to the roof, hoping that he was there but only to find it as barren as a desert. I sighted deeply and made my way to the cafeteria.

I located Sarah sitting with a guy and a girl at one of the lunch tables. As soon as I walked up to them she looked at me wide eyed and stood up from her seat, coming towards me.

"Oh my god Jane! Are you okay?" She asked worriedly. I gave her a questionable look.

"Yeah I'm fine." I replied back. She pulled me into a tight hug.

"Oh, thank God! I was so worried when you didn't show up yesterday. Even Luca didn't show up so I thought he did something to you. I couldn't help but call your parents." She said. I gaped at her.

"You called my parents?!" I asked her with shock.

"Yeah, I had to. What if Luca had raped you or killed you or something." She replied back.

"Can you hear yourself? Rape me? Kill me? What the hell Sarah?!" I snapped angirly. Why is she so over dramatic about Luca. He's just a boy.

She gasped at my sudden outburst. I took a deep breath to calm myself.

"I'm sorry Sarah." I apologised. "I didn't mean to yell at you, I swear. I'm just worried about something and I'm dying from the nervousness." I confessed.

She nodded her head slightly. "It's okay. I just wanted to know if you were alright." She said back softly.

"I know. I'm fine." I told her with a warm smile as I placed my hands on her shoulders. She gave me a small smile.
