My Girlfriend's Keeper

Chapter III: Can't Keep Hiding

Shelly

Andre had been doing this to me for years now. I couldn't stop him either because I lived with him. He was eighteen and my parents were no where to be found. Although he was still in high school they still allowed him to be my legal guardian. No one knew about what he was doing to me. I didn't actually know how to tell someone that my brother was having sex with me without my consent. I would always try and tell Crystal, but every time I did something would interrupt us or it just wasn't a time I could. I knew she would be there for me, but I was embarrassed by it all and I didn't know how to tell her. Another reason I didn't want to tell anyone is because they might tell the police and then Andre would get into some trouble and where would I go after that? I was 17 and legally I couldn't be on my own until my birthday next September. Everything would go so much smoother if I kept my mouth shut.

I woke up the next morning with an all too familiar pain between my legs. I rolled over and grabbed my phone from off my night stand. I saw a text from Crystal saying she needed a ride to school because her car quit. I got up and found me something to wear to school. I knew jeans were out of the question because I had to struggle to get into them, and I was in too much pain for that today. I decided on a plain black maxing dress and a tied denim blouse to go on top of it. I oiled my body up and found the accessories I was going to wear with it. As I was applying my lip stick I heard André call me down to go

"Be there in a second" I yelled down the stairs as I grabbed my purse, phone, and sandals.

I jogged down the stairs and André was leaning against the wall with his keys in his hands.

"You ready" he asked as I was putting my shoes on.

"Yeah"

I grabbed my house keys, set the alarm and we were on our way out the door. We got in the car and when he was about to pull off I told him about Crystal

"Oh I forgot, Crystal said she needs a ride, can you go and get her please"

"Yeah, you look nice Shelly" I looked down at my iPhone 6s to ignore the look he was giving me

"Thanks" I mumbled, barely wanting to say it

It was silent for a few minutes and he spoke again

"You in pain"

"What?"

"Did I hurt you last night"

I looked up at him. That was really a stupid question. Of course he hurt me. He was having sex with me without my consent. He was hurting me in more ways than one

"Ye-yeah a little bit"

he sighed

"I'm sorry okay"

he laid a hand on my thigh as he pulled up to Crystal's house.

"I know André"

He saw crystal come out the house and he moved his hand. I shook my head and unlocked the door for her.

"Hey you guys, thanks for the ride André"

"Not a problem Crys" he said reversing out her drive way.

"Dang Shelly who you getting all cute for"

"No one" I said chuckling.

I turned around to look at her and noticed her outfit. she had on a white fitted skirt and burgundy crop top. She was talking about me looking cute. She never dressed like this for school.

"But I could ask you the same question"

she giggled

"We'll talk about"
