The Bad Boy's Back

Truth

I'm done with him, done. How dare he speak to me like that?, who does he think he is?, Never do I wanna see him again and he can say goodbye to his stupid photo, 'cause I ain't giving it back. I walked as fast as my legs could carry me, as soon as I got to the door of the beach house - Aliza had rented- I heard her shout my name.

I turned around, and forced a smile. "Laura, guess who the girl you were talking to was?!" she said excitedly, " Who?", I said with no interest whatsoever. "My cousin!, I feel really bad for not recognizing her, but like I asked her why she--Are you okay Laur?", Aliza said looking concerned. "I just need a lie down," By the way, your friend never came", I mumbled as I strolled off, to one of the bedrooms. "Oh, yeah I forgot to tell you, her Nan was in hospital so she...", I couldn't hear her anymore as nothing mattered more to me than controlling my rage. Neither did I want to ruin her party and I definitely did not want to take my anger out on someone else.

I knocked on the bedroom door, first to make sure no one was in there. Once I was convinced, I walked in, shut the door and lay down on the bed.

My vision had become blurry since my eyes had welled up with tears. I lay there crying for ages. Then heard footsteps, someone must be coming , I got up and stumbled to the bathroom to wash the mascara and eyeliner off, that had run down my face. There was no towel, so I had to feel my way around till I got to the towel rack.
Okay so there's the door, I said to myself as I felt the smooth flat wooden door, which means that the towel rack is to the right of it.
"Bingo!, Oh no shit! ", I said as I felt someone's buttons, probably off a shirt, I got my sleeve and wiped eyes as quickly as I could.

" Rémy ", I said accidentally aloud." I don't want to talk to you can you not just leave me alone if you want your 'oh so valuable photo',then you can take it from Aliza tomorrow",i said angrily.
I turned to walk away but found something pulling me back, he had clasped his hand around my arm. "Laura...",he said waiting for me to turn around and look up at him." Leave me go", I said reaching for his hand.

"Please listen to me", He said hesitating. "What do you want from me?, I hate you, ever since I met you I can't stop thinking about you, and the problem is that however much I hate and I try not to, I can't stop, you're so rude to me you treat me like - - I felt his lips press up against mine, I hate how good it felt. I felt his grip loosen as he moved his hands down to my hips.

No. I thought. I can't do this. I placed my hands on his chest and pulled away. "Please... Listen to me", he said while stroking my cheek. "You have five minutes", I said looking down and brushing his hand away from my cheek.

"Look.. I don't know how I'm going to say this. But. Laura. I don't deserve your kindness, or friendship or even care. That's why I be as mean, rude and an ass as I can. And I'm sorry please never cry because of me, I hate myself for making you cry and I never want to again. And is why after I get my photo from Aliza, you'll never see me again and neither will you ever be hurt. You deserve so much better. Take care of yourself and please stay safe, I would never wanna see you hurt ever, physically or emotionally.", He kissed my forehead then looked down straight into my eyes.

"Rémy, why would you leave, why leave me like this?, why don't you deserve me? Please. Don't.. Do ..this",I covered his hands that were holding each side of my face, with mine.

"I've done things in the past,that are inhuman, animalistic and horrible. I've changed, but I can't change my past. And some time or another my past is gonna catch up to me and haunt me. I don't want you to be harmed in any way because of my past". He said trying hard to divert his gaze.
"Why can't we get through this--I was interrupted by a loud bang.
"Rémy rushed to the window and his expression changed. He frowned, clenched his jaw tight and clasped his fist even tighter.

"Laura, I promise, I'll listen to what ever you have to say, just not now ", he looked at me and left. He must've seen something outside, I heard a punching sound and then a crash.
I ran down the hallway to the front door of the house to make sure he was okay, when Aliza came in and brought me into her room." Oh My Gosh!, girl, I need to tell you something! ", she said with excitement." Wait I need to go", I said worriedly.
