The Love of a Thug

chapter one

Aurielle's POV

A weak voice is calling me from as I'm running further and further into the huge basement full of trap doors. I get closer and closer until I hear a ...

"BANG".

All I hear next is laughing from who I thought was my best friend. Turned out to be my worst nightmare. And this is how it began.

Omniscient POV

    Aurielle  awoke to the smell of nasty cigarette smoke that her mother was smoking. Not that the woman cared, she hasn't cared since Aurielle's father cheated on her for some white woman up in New York. Aurielle  looked almost exactly like him, the big brown eyes, the smooth chestnut skin, maybe thats why she hated Aurielle so much. Her disgusting low life boyfriend, Kevin came in interrupting Aurielle's thoughts.

"Get up lil' girl and get ready for school, before I make you", he said with a nasty smirk on his face.

"I'm up Kevin, please get out.", as she glared at him.

Kevin has been sexually assaulting her for weeks, like whispering nasty things to her, threatening her, and touching her thighs.
    He was a truly perverted soul. Kevin still then proceeded to get closer to Aurielle. He was making slow steady movements while licking his lips and glaring at Aurielle closely.

"Kevin please stop! I'm getting up!"

Aurielle is yelling this as loud as she can. Meanwhile, her so called mother is smoking a cigarette and ignoring the desperate calls of her oldest child.

"Lil' girl I just want a little touch before I head off to work.", he said in a grimy tone.

"I'm going to be late Kevin", right on cue Aurielle's little brother RJ ran in saying

"C'mon Auri,we are gonna be late!"

He is only twelve , probably doesn't even know who Kevin truly is. Before Kevin left the room he mouthed, "you know what is mine".
    She rolled my eyes and went to the bathroom to take a quick shower, and do my crazy curly afro. Quickly Aurielle had to throw on some simple jeans and a black v-neck, putting on her old worn converses before being rushed out the door, by RJ. Aurielle dropped off RJ at school, as any other normal day.

Nova usually would be waiting for her right in front of the High School building. Oh, how Aurielle hated this school and everyone in it. She was so ready to get out of here and head far, far away from little old North Carolina. But one boy made it all worth coming to the hell hole she called school. Rashad Carter.
He is so fine, she thought. Rashad was very mysterious and that had Aurielle yearning for answers, a conversation. But her introverted personality probably would never get that type of attention from a guy like that.

"AURIELLE, please stop thinking about that boy he is definitely not for you", Nova expressed in a slightly annoyed tone . Aurielle didn't even notice her, as she daydreaming about Rashad.

"Sorry girl", Aurielle quickly looked at him , he looked up and saw her, and she just sped away thinking, damn, he probably saw me staring!

Aurielle and Nova had a quick conversation at their lockers, but all Aurielle want to do was get to first period to see Rashad. Nova had been talking about some party Michael and she wanted to go to this weekend.
