- Mckenzie's POV
The next day after Cameron took my virginity, I actually woke up in his apartment. The only thing is, he wast there. I texted him and called him but no answer. So I just figured I would go take a shower and get dressed. I didn't have to work today because I had a lot of stuff to at the church.
I put on my black skinny jeans, purple shirt, and purple sandals. I didn't know what to do with my hair because it curled up and I forgot my hair products. So I went searching to see of Cameron had a comb or something in his bathroom. Surprisingly I found a whole bunch of female products in there. They weren't even used yet. I started to wonder who they were for. But I didn't have time I just needed to get to church.
I decided to put my hair in a pony tail with swoop bangs. Right as I put the finishing touches on my hair. A strong hand slapped me in the face and I fell to the ground. I started crying as I looked up and saw Cameron standing there with rage in his eyes. "Where the fuck do you think you're going? Huh?!" He said as he jerked me up from the floor. I cried as I hit is chest and just as he pulled me from the bathroom I got a glimpse of myself from the mirror. There what a red mark underneath my eye.
He threw me on the kitchen floor and said," answer my fucking question Mckenzie. Did I give you permission to leave.? And who the hell told you that you could go searching through my bathroom! Who the hell told you that you could use those hair products.?" He said as he continuously hit me in all areas of my body. All I could do was cry. This man that I fully trusted. I abusing me... Why didn't I see it coming?
Finally when the beating was over Cameron went and fell asleep on the couch. I slowly and quietly packed my bag back up. Got my keys and left. I went home, so that I could get my make up and cover up the bruises. I knew I would be late to church. But I couldn't go with bruises and cuts on my face.
I was about 15 minutes late but I made it. Today starts youth weekend so that means we have to practice singing for choir, and I have to help the praise dancers out because they're going to dance while the choir sings. I walked into the sanctuary and l saw Darius teaching the choir. I forgot he could sing.
"I am so sorry I'm late.", I said to everyone. "No problem" Darius said smiling at me. "Hey Darius can you continue to teach the songs to the choir and I'll go and teach the praise dancers?" I said with my head down just incase I didn't put on enough make up.
He looked at me kind of weird and say, "okay". I went to the back to start teaching the dancers and once everything was learned we came together and displayed everything to my dad. After that we took the church bus to take the kids to Pizza World.
All of the youth went crazy and went their separate ways. Me and Darius got a table and went to the pizza buffet. I just got a salad because Cameron said I need to watch my weight. After we got our food we sat down and Darius just kept looking at me with curiosity in his eyes.
Finally he spoke up and said,"who did this to you?" I looked at him and my eyes started filling with tears. I knew he saw at church. I just didn't want to believe it. I put my head down and cried. The make up came off of my face as he wiped my tears with a napkin. Showing my purple and black bruises. Then he looked at my arms and saw bruises there.
"Mckenzie talk to me. Who did this to you. Who hit you?", he said in concern. "If I told you I'm positive he would kill me." I said crying. We stepped outside and got in the church van. Finally I broke and told him everything that happened.
He looked so upset. "Kenzie you can't go back there he said. You can come with me or you just need to stay with your parents... Are you going to collage.?" He said as he wrapped his arms around me. "Yeah but I'm just going to start off my going to the community collage here." I said. "Okay Kenzie well look, I want you to know that I never stopped having feelings for you. And I want to be with you." He said as he ran his fingers through my hair. "I never stopped having feelings for you either Darius. I just thought you were never coming back and that really hurt me." I said crying again.
That night after all of the kids left me and Darius went to my parents and told them everything that happened. That was when I started putting the prices together about Rayan. Darius asked my dad if I could move in with him. My dad reluctantly said yes.
Darius kissed me and we went back into my room to pack my stuff... Cameron was blowing up my phone. I felt so much hurt in my heart. I actually still loved Cameron. I just think we need a break. For now I want to spend some time with Darius.
