Love Isn't Always Fair

Chapter 3: The nightmare revisited

Kathy's POV

I woke up with a massive headache, and felt two strong arms wrapped around me. I almost screamed, but something told me that I was safe. I turned over, and saw Ashley was holding me close to his body.  I looked around, and realized I was in his apartment, in his bedroom, in his bed, with him. Shit. Did we end up fucking last night? I hope not, Ashley is high up on my list of people to fuck and I would like to remember it.

I worked my way out of Ashley's arms and went to find a bathroom. After a few minutes of searching, I managed to find one. My eyes were entirely bloodshot, and my makeup was down my face in tear streaks. I wasn't wearing what I wore out to the bar last night, but instead I was in a long,loose t-shirt. It looked like one of Ashleys. My skirt was no where in sight, and neither were my heels. I nearly screamed, my thighs were covered in bruises, and from my eye down to my lip was a huge cut. I didn't remember any of those happening.

I went back into the bedroom with Ash, and gently sat down on the bed, careful not to wake him. I tried to piece together everything that happened last night. Flashes came back of dancing, drinking shots, hanging out with Ashley. That's when I remembered something.

"Oh Ashley come on let's dance." I slurred, as I dragged him over to the dance floor.

"Anything for you baby girl." He smiled seductively as he said that.

We danced for awhile, and then Ashley bent down and whispered in my ear.

"Let's get out of here." I smiled and nodded.

He lead us off and we went back out to his car. We went back into the backseat, and started making out. He pulled me ontop of him, his hands working their way up my body.

I broke the kiss, and looked at him in the eye.

"Not now Ash, not here." I started to get up, and opened the car door. He grabbed my wrist.

"Do you want to head back to my place?" He asked, determined.

I smiled softly. "Maybe a little bit later, once we're both sober." I kissed him on the cheek, and went back into the bar and started dancing and having fun.

Shit. If me and Ashley... No.. I told him no... he wouldn't... would he?

I didn't know what to think... Ashley wouldn't force me to have sex with him would he?

Would he be as evil as Jason and do this to me? I tried to remember what happened after I left Ash... but failed to remember everything. Frustrated I picked up a pillow and screamed into it, forgetting that Ashley was sound asleep next to me. 

I heard him groan and then say "You couldn't be normal and shake me awake?"

I turned around to look at him, and realized I started crying again. He quickly sat up, and tried to hug me. I moved away. Ashley had to have done something, how could I have all these bruises and the cut? Why am I in his bed with him, wearing his shirt with him shirtless? He did exactly what Jason did to me, and I had to get out of here.

"I'm going home. Where's my phone?" I asked.

Ashley looked down, it's on the counter.. along with what is left of your clothes after last night.

"What happened Ash?" I said, barely above a whisper.

"Someone was at the bar... you tried to throw yourself at him, but appearantly backed out of sleeping with him. I found you on my way home, you were crying in the street without any clothes on. I gave you my shirt, then took you here. I was going to sleep on the couch, but you asked me to stay with you. Please don't hate me..."

I fell back on the bed at his words, and just burst out into tears. I couldn't believe it. I can't remember anything, but flashes of what Ashley told me played threw my head.

I was running. I may not have anything on besides my underwear, but I have to get out of there. He fell asleep. I have to leave.I wasn't letting him touch me again. Tonight was the second time he hurt me. There won't be a third.

I ran about 3 blocks and I couldn't run anymore. That's when I saw it, a car turning the corner, the same one Jason drives. I got scared, he was coming for me. I just collapsed onto the street and cried, salt from the tears making the cut by my eye burn. The car slowed to a stop, and I heard a familiar voice, one that soothed me.

"Kitty Kat? Is that you?" It was Ashley. I smiled as my saving grace came to me. "Oh shit your naked? In public? What happened?" He asked as he pulled his shirt off and helped me get it on.

"Jason was at the bar... he...he did it... again..." I cried into his chest.

"Shh Shh. I got you now. Your safe baby girl. Come on, Andy is probably asleep already so we'll keep you at my place for the night." Ashley said, pulling me into the car as I cried.

When we got to his apartment, he lead me over to his room.

"Stay here okay? I'll take the couch. If you need anything, just give a yell." Ash said as he was leaving.

"Stay with me. Please." I begged.

"For you, anything." Ash said as he wrapped his arms around me and soon we both were in a sound sleep.

"Do you want me to call Andy? Or do you want to call him?" Ashley asked me after I stopped crying.

"You and put him on speaker in here, so I can talk to him.

Ashley picked up his phone and called Andy.

Ring, ring, ring

Andy finally picked up and he sounded worried.

"Ash, I was just about to call you. Kathy's gone and she's not answering her phone and I don't know what's going on. Please tell me you've seen her." He cried.

"Andeater, I'm right here. I was with Ashley all night."  I told him, happy to hear his voice.

Silence.

"A....Andeater?" I said softly.

"Katherine Alexis Biersack!!! Why didn't you come home???" He yelled into the phone after a couple minutes of silence.

"Dude Andy calm down. I'll bring her home now, we'll explain everything in person. See you in 20 minutes." He said and hung up the phone.

After hearing how pissed Andy was, I only had one thought in my mind: Why didn't Jason kill me? Because now Andy will.
