The Bites of Seduction

Get your head straight

I walk up the front door of my house and I fumble the keys in my hand. I'm so nervous in thinking what is about to happen. I end up dropping the keys on the welcome mat we have outside. I pick them up and finally open the front door. The scent of cedar wood enters my lungs. I forgot that my mom likes to light that candle sometimes because I got it for her birthday last month and she said she loved it.

I try to let that thought try to calm me down but I can't help but feel guilty. I hope that this won't affect our relationship because I did it for him.

I think of different ways to tell Dylan what happened at Nick's house without him flipping out but I can't find any. I
I have to tell him the truth and I'm pretty sure he's not going to believe me if I just say that Nick gave me the remedy.

I place my hand on the railing off he stairs as I slowly walk up the stairs. It's my only support right now and I don't feel so good.

As I'm about to reach the top of the stairs, I hear my door unlock and Dylan comes out. He has a smile on his face when he sees me but when he takes a deeper look, his face falters to a concerned look.

I walk into my room with him. He looks at me and tries to see what's wrong. He starts:

"Hey, Are you okay?" He tries to get an answer from me but I just look away. I can't lie but I don't want to tell him the truth either.

Dylan gets furious at this and pulls my chin upward. His rough action lead me to gasp and cry out. He definitely hurt my neck.

" Look at me and answer when I ask you a question!" He says with authority.

I am about to slap him but then I realize he needs to take the tea to be cured. He's still angry Dylan. I need him to cooperate so I try my best to be patient with him.

I just nod and look at him with sadness. If he's  already angry now, he's gonna be so angry when I tell him. I get this ache in my stomach and I don't know what I should do.

He seems to notice my pain as he rushes towards me. He grabs my back and my hand to guide me to my bed.

His eyes widen when he feels how cold I am. He brings me in for a hug and holds me for a couple of minutes. I get super cold when I get scared or nervous even when it's hot. It feels nice to have some warmth but I'm still cold.

"I'm sorry I just went off. I'm still getting used to controlling myself. I just got super angry." He says this as he pulls away from the hug. He looks at me and waits for me to say something but I don't.

I think I should tell him now that he calmed down. I open my mouth to speak....

But he beats me to it...

"If you didn't get it, it's fine Lilly. I don't want you to feel bad. But tell me what happened. Did he hurt you?"

He says the last part with anger. He seems to think that's what happened because he rushes over to me.

He grabs cups my face. Dylan makes me look at him and he looks sad.

"Please don't say he hurt you. I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have let you go. I didn't think it over. What did he do?"

I gulp and shake my head no. He seems relieved as he lets out a sigh. He lets my face go and he paces in front of me when I sit on my bed.

"Thank goodness! I would of killed him if he ever..."

"I kissed Dylan in order for me to get the remedy. I pretended that I liked him and that I hated you so I could get it." I blurt out.

He hears this and just stands there. His face drops down and he just stares at the floor. I see anger building up inside him but I rush to him to calm him down.

I take his face and try to make him look at me but he stays stiff. He doesn't let me. He doesn't even look at me.

"I fucking should of known not to let you go. It's all my fault." Dylan says as he pushes past me.

"I did it for you! I don't like him, I love you!" I confess but he doesn't seem to hear me.

He rushes toward me until we are face to face. The red takes over and he just takes it out on me.

"You know better Lilly! You should have thought of another way! You probably didn't even do this for me. You probably like him! I can't believe you cheated on me!" He yells and I just cringe.

I'm so scared and I am angry that he didn't understand. I don't like Nick! He walks away and slides his hands through his hair. He pulls a little and the ends and goes over to me again.

"I don't like Nick, I told you that..." I try to assure him that what he says isn't true  but he doesn't let me.

"You like him so much that you would kiss him! Is there any other boys I have to know about! It's too good to be true to have a quality woman these days. They just like to sleep around like fucking bunnies! I just thought that you would be different!" He spits.

NO-HE-DIDN'T

I push at his chest and yell in his face.

"I did this for you ass hole! I don't like him and I never slept with anyone! If you think I'm a fucking animal then you've got anther thing coming!"

He looks surprised at my profanity and my yelling. I never curse but now I do thanks to Dylan.

His eyes soften but I'm am just angry.

"Maybe before you say hurtful things to me, get you head straight! Just take your stupid ass tea and leave! I can't believe you think so low of me. I just did this for you! All I did was kiss him you ignorant bastard!" I yell.

I grab my bag and throw the tea box at his chest. It falls to the floor. He just stares at me.

I didn't even notice the tears streaming down my face. Dylan walks over to me but I push him away. He finally is calm but I'm just done. He can take the tea but I just can't deal with him right now.

I just need this day to be free of Dylan right now.

"Just take the tea and leave! It's has the remedy! I just need you to leave! Just get better and then talk to me!"

He grabs the tea and walks out of my room. I hear him walking down the stairs. Then I hear the front door close.

What a day!
