Prologue
Bella's Point Of View
"Eric! Please stop!" I cried, clutching my stomach.
"You little bitch! What did I tell you about making me mad?!" Eric roared.
Sobs escaped my body as I tried to block his blows to my stomach with my legs.
"What did I say?!"
"Not to do anything to make you upset or suffer the consequences." I whimpered. He snickered.
"Now get out of my sight, bitch." Eric hissed, before kicking me once more. I nodded and quickly stood up and ran out of his house to my car. I quickly drove off to the park and parked along the sidewalk.
I broke down and sobs escaped my lips. I brought my legs up to my body and hugged them, rocking back and forth.
As my sobs slowed, I lifted up my shirt and I saw fresh bruises. I got the small mirror out of the glovebox and looked at my reflection.
Just what I expected. More bruises and a big gash under my right eye. His ring must have made the gash.
The sobs came back and I just sat there crying, while people walked past my car giving me weird looks.
I got my phone out of my back pocket and called Sam.
"Hello? Bella?"
"H-Hey Sam."
"Oh god, what did Eric do to you this time? I swear to god I'm gonna go kill him! You can't keep going back to him!" Sam told me, angrily.
Sam has been my best friend since we were little and he's the only one that knows about what Eric does to me. Sam is the same age as me and he's like a brother to me. He is also very overprotective.
"C-Can you come to my fl-flat please?" I asked.
I heard him sigh. "Okay, I'll be over in 10 minutes."
"Thank you." I whispered.
We hung up and I put my phone back in my pocket. I took some deep breathes and didn't bother to fix my smeared makeup.
I'll just take if off when I get home.
I turned my car back on and drove to my flat. I opened the door to my flat and went strait to my bathroom. I got my makeup remover and got all of my smeared and messed up makeup, done by me crying, off.
I walked into my kitchen and put the kettle on. Tea sometimes helps when this happens.
I've been dating Eric for 2 years, but I've known him for 3. He used to be really sweet and kind to me, and I fell for him. But when we started dating, he started to hit me. Then it escalated to punching, kicking, etc.
But he always says he's sorry after, and begs me to come back to him. He said that he would never do it again, and me being me, I always believe him. He'll act sweet for a few days, the Eric that I love. But after that, he'll act out again and hurt me.
I love him though! Its always my fault because I'm stupid and clumsy. So I guess it's okay that he hits me. Right?
Oh, who am I kidding? Its not okay at all! Sam is right, but I can't leave him. I love him.
My thoughts were interrupted by a knocking at the door. I walked over to it and Sam stood there.
His smile vanished and was replaced with a frown. He stepped into my flat and cupped my face. He studied my face with all the cuts and bruises, and his eyebrows furrowed together.
"Oh Bella, why do you let him do this to you?" Sam whispered. My vision became blurry, and I hugged him. He wrapped his arms around my waist and we stayed like that for a while.
Then the kettle went off.
"Tea's ready! Would you like some Sam?" I asked, walking over to the kettle.
"No thanks Bella, I had some before I came over."
I poured the boiling water into a mug and put in a chamomile tea packet.
I'm gonna need some good sleep tonight...
I walked over to my couch and sat down, taking small sips of my tea. Sam sat down next to me, and rubbed his forehead.
My phone started to ring, and I sat my tea down on the coffee table a few feet away from where I was sitting. I checked the caller ID and it was Eric.
Sam peered over my shoulder and clenched his fists.
"Don't answer Bella." He said. I sighed.
"I have to, Sam." I whispered. I got up and walked to my bathroom and shut the door and sat on the floor.
I answered.
"Eric?"
"Bella, babe, I'm so sorry. Please take me back, I promise I won't hit you again." Eric said.
"You promised that last time." I told him.
"But I love you. Just trust me babe."
"But..."
"Bella, I'm sorry. Isn't that enough for you?"
I stayed silent for a moment. I know I shouldn't be doing this... but...
"Okay Eric."
"Thanks, come back to my place tomorrow and I have something for you." He said, then hung up. I sighed and turned off my phone.
"I love you too." I whispered.
I got up and left the bathroom and sat back down on the couch next to Sam.
"Your back together aren't you?" He asked. I nodded.
"How did you know?"
"I know you Bella." He said.
I picked up my tea and finished it with 5 big gulps.
"Do you want to watch a movie?" I asked. A small smile appeared on Sam's face.
"Okay."
*****
Time to knock.
The night before went by fast. Sam and I watched a movie and then he left and I went to bed.
I knocked on Eric's door.
"Hey babe." Eric said, pulling me in for a kiss. He put his hand up my shirt, and I pulled away from the kiss.
"Eric... no." I said.
"Fine. For now Bella." He said, walking back into his flat. I followed him inside and closed the door.
What did he mean 'for now'?
"So, um, what is the surprise you told me about?" I asked.
"I'm taking you to a One Direction concert tomorrow night for your birthday." Eric said. A grin broke out on my face. I ran over to him and hugged him.
"Thank you thank you thank you!" I squealed. Eric laughed.
"Your welcome babe."
One Direction is my number one favorite band! I've a Directioner since the beginning when they were on XFactor.
Tomorrow is going to be amazing!
