Torn In Three

Chapter 4

I walked to registration with a smile on my face. I was early, so I’d have time to just talk to Mr Hanslow, something I loved doing. When I got to the door, I heard muffled voices, and peaked through the window. It was Mr Hanslow talking to another woman, who I assumed was a teaching assistant or something.

‘’Zach; I’ve missed you so much, babe.’’ Muttered the woman, stepping closer to him.

‘’Marisa, stop it. You broke my heart, and I’m in love with someone else.’’

‘’Don’t give me that shit, you know you love me.’’

‘’I don- well, I did miss you, Princess.’’

Marisa moved toward him again, and he grasped her elbows. I thought he was going to push her away, but instead he done something that tore my heart in two. He pulled her upwards and kissed her, deep and passionate. That hurt, but what hurt even more was that he called her ‘Princess’. That was supposed to be my name.

I couldn’t bear it a second longer, and burst through the door angrily. Zach and Marisa jumped apart, Marisa smirking and Zach’s face red. My face was twisted in agony. I could feel the tears dripping down my face, my mascara staining my cheeks.

‘’WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?’’ I screamed.

‘’What do you mean?’’ Zach laughed.

‘’You’re kissing her! Why are you kissing her?’’

‘’I think I’m allowed to kiss who I like.’’

‘’No, you’re not.’’

‘’He’s an adult sweetie, he’s allowed. What’s it to you, anyway?’’ Marisa cut in, still smirking.

‘’I’ll kiss who I want, Leah. Now, go away please.’’ Zach hissed, shaking his head at me.

‘’It’s supposed to be me you want to kiss.’’ I whimpered, looking at him.

‘’Get out, now.’’ Zach almost screamed, anger flashing across his eyes.

I turned and ran as fast as I could, I couldn’t even see where I was going. I hit something hard, and fell to the ground. I looked up through my teary eyes, and gasped in horror at the image in front of me.

‘’Hello, Leah. Nice to see you.’’ Said Mr Keller, smiling.

‘’Get away from me.’’ I hissed, pulling myself up.

‘’It’s been too long, babe. Come with me.’’

‘’I’m not going anywhere with you.’’

‘’Yes, you are.’’

He grabbed me by the arm, and put his other hand over my mouth. I was dragged in to the storage cupboard, and he held me against the shelves as I struggled. Then, he raped me again. It was much more violent than last time.

I collapsed in a heap on Dom’s classroom floor, crying my eyes out. I could feel his arms wrap around me immediately. He pulled me up and gasped.

‘’What the fuck happened to your face?’’ He cried, brushing my eye, which I assumed had turned purple.

‘’That’s not important.’’

‘’Yes, it is!’’

‘’No.’’

‘’Then why are you crying?’’

‘’Zach has a girlfriend.’’

‘’So what?’’

‘’I’m in love with him.’’

Dom let go of me, and stood up. I looked up at him, still whimpering. He looked hurt, and I felt a pang of guilt for some reason. Why did he care if I was in love with Zach? Why did it hurt him?

‘’I thought you… loved me.’’ He sighed, answering my question.

‘’Seriously?’’ I said. It hadn’t meant to sound harsh.

Sorry it's been so long, I've been busy with exams and stuff. Here's chappie 4.<3

His jaw dropped open, and he fell to the floor next to me, his head in his hands. I looked at him, not knowing what to do. I eventually grabbed his hands and held them. He was crying, even worse than I had been. I didn’t know what to do. He looked so sweet, so sad. I done what I thought was right. I leaned in, and I kissed him gently on the lips.

‘’What are you doing?’’ He gasped, pulling away.

‘’I’m not sure.’’ I laughed.

He smirked, and pulled me on top of him. He forced my lips against his, kissing me urgently. He must’ve been waiting for this for a while. I eventually pulled away, gasping and laughing.

‘’I love you.’’ He said, smiling.

‘’I love you, too.’’ I replied.

I did, right?

I could love him instead of Zach, right?

Right?

I wanted to believe it so badly, but stupid as it was, I felt like I was cheating on Zach.
