The Roommate

Part 14:

•August•
I woke up and turned to my side to see that I was alone. I got up took a shower and got dressed. When I finished I called out for Brooke, but I got no answer. So I went to her room and she wasn't there. I texted her and waited for a reply, but I got nothing. So I went downstairs and checked outside, and she was no where to be found. So I just got in my car and went to get something to eat. When I got back home I seen her car in the driveway. I quickly hopped out and ran inside. I opened the door and screamed her name. She walked out the kitchen and looked at me, then she walked past me, and ran upstairs. I ran after her into her room.

"What's wrong?" I asked her

"-" she said nothing she just stared at me

"Is it about earlier?" I asked

"Yes" she answered

"What about it?" I asked

"I feel used" she said with a serious face

"Used?" I asked pissed off

"Yea" she replied

"Fuck you, cause you wanted that shit, I was patient with you, and I was gentle! I don't know what kind of games you playing, but you need to stop!" I screamed at her and left the house

•Brooke•
I feel bad for what I'm taking August through, but he doesn't understand I feel alone, and I'm fucked up after what Odell did to me. After over thinking everything, I fell asleep and woke up about an hour later, to the smell of weed and the sound of loud music. I got up and walked to the stairs and looked down to see August, Chris, and some more of their friends. Then I look to the left to see some stank ass girls dancing for them. Then one walks over to August and starts grinding on him as he takes another long drag from his blunt. He looks up and smirks at me as he pulls the girl closer to him. I rolled my eyes and walked back into my room, slamming the door behind me. I fell on the bed and cried. Why the hell is he doing this? I feel like he's just trying to make me suffer more, just because I'm not acting like he wants me to.  I wiped my tears and turned my TV on. I connected my Netflix and began watching Pretty Little Liar's. About 4 episodes later, I was interrupted by my door opening. I turned to see August, he walked in and closed the door behind him.

"Hey babey" he said smiling and sitting at the edge of my bed

"Why aren't you downstairs with your friends and those whores?" I asked

"They left" he said laughing

"I'm glad you find that shit amusing" I growled

"Babey...why you so mad all the time?" He asked grabbing my thigh

"Because I have a boyfriend that secretly hates me just because I'm hurting, and he's a non-supportive piece of shit, and he just doesn't care" I screamed

"Get the fuck out of my room!" I screamed as my tears rolled down my face

I watched him roll his eyes at me and slam my door. I turned my TV up and continued to watch pretty Little Liar's. I heard a couple of slams and kicks then I heard and felt a big slam. I jumped up and ran into the hall. I saw August slamming all of our pictures to the floor and throwing them downstairs.

"Stop!" I yelled

"This is what a piece of shit does...right?" He yelled back

"August stop NOW!!"I screamed

He continued to break things causing me to feel afraid of what he would do to me and causing me to feel very overwhelmed. I ran back into my room and packed some clothes I ran down the stairs and toward the door. I was stopped by August pulling me back.

"Where do you think your going?" He asked holding my arm tight

"Let go" I demanded

"Now you wanna leave me?" He asked

"Just let go" I yelled

He released me and I ran out the door. I got into my car and drove away. I called Hazel and told her I was coming to her house to stay for the night. When I got to her house, Chris opened the door for me, he greeted me with an attitude, so I just ignored him and went to my old room which is now the guest room. I walked inside and closed the door behind me. I unpack a few of my clothes then I got into bed to watch TV, before I shower. I turned the TV on and Hazel's Netflix was already connected so I continued to watch my favorite show. I had finally started to get comfortable, when I heard a big slam coming from downstairs. I left my room and walked to the stairs to see Hazel and Chris arguing, over Chris' behavior and whereabouts. I shook my head and walked back into the guest room. I got back into bed and got comfortable again, and all that was ruined by August busting into the room.

"Get your shit and lets go" he demanded

"NO!!" I yelled

He walked into the room and repacked my things, he grabbed my bag and walked downstairs with it. I followed him, and demanded for him to give me my things back, but he wouldn't. I started to cry because I felt so angry and so overwhelmed by what August and I are going through. Anyways, he grabbed me and pushed me into my car, I cranked it up and sped off. He followed right after me, not losing sight of me. I tried to lose him, but he won't slow down. We were like almost bumper to bumper. So, I decided to just go home. When we arrived home I turned my car off and he opened my door and pulled me out. I walked inside with him and he slammed the door shut and locked it behind himself. He made sure all the windows were locked and all the blinds were closed. Then, he walked over to me. I looked at him and he had tears rolling down his face. I feel like he gets really emotional when he drinks, and I didn't want to make it worse so I just stared at him.

"I'm sorry" he apologized

"I just want to get rid of your pain and you won't let me be a good boyfriend, I feel like I failed you because I let that happen to you" he added

" It's not your fault and you couldn't have stopped it even if you wanted to" I said

"I'm sorry, for making you feel like you weren't a good boyfriend, we just started dating and all this shit is happening to us and I couldn't handle it" I said wiping his tears

" I love you" I said before I kissed him

" I love you too" he said after he kissed me back

" I think you should sleep this off" I suggested as I guided him upstairs into his room

I took his shirt off and threw him some pajama pants, then I went into my room and changed into my pajamas. I laid in my bed and stared at the wall in front of me. As of right now, my relationship with August is going to be different. I'm going to try to be more open and more loving, and understanding. I then got up and grabbed my phone. I walked into August's room and got into bed with him, I placed my phone on the nightstand and moved close to August. I laid my head on his chest and wrapped my arms and legs around him, as he held me back.
