***WARNING THINGS GET A LITTLE HARSH****

Riley's POV

I wake up to someone shaking me "baby wake up" I groan "baby wake up" I open my eyes and see Zack my heart skips a beat but I don't react and I just sit up Zack touches my face I flinch "baby..did I" he pauses for a minute "did I do that to you?"

I look into his eyes and see guilt, Zack loves me and I owe him my life.. I can forgive him.. He didn't mean, I smile at him "it's ok baby I know you didn't mean to, I just pissed you off at the wrong time" he pulls me in for a hug and my body screams I'm pain "I'm so sorry baby... I'll never hurt you again. Ever." I hug him back

"I know baby I know" he let's go of me "I have to get ready for work you rest" I lay back down and wait until Zack leaves, then I get up change and head to the boulevard. I lean against the railing and look at the beach it's been a while since I went swimming "Whatcha thinking about beautiful" I smile "Just haven't been to the beach lately" Jayden laughs

"we. Let's so" I look at him "ok!" His face changes "what?" He sticks his hand out and touches my face "what happened" my heart stops is there a bruise on my face!! "Riley what happened" I take a step back and turn around "n-nothing Jayden I'm clumsy sometimes"

god what do I say how did I not notice this "no way you hit yourself on something to get that bruise, I'm going to ask again what happened" "I-I fell while dancing." I say quickly "you wouldn't have landed on your cheek." "It happened while I was practicing a stunt." I feel him grab my hand "I know you don't practice"

he turns me around "tell me what happen" I look into his eyes I see safety i see home... But I can't tell him "it's nothing Jayden I promise" I fake a smile, he doesn't look like he believes me he sighs "I don't believe you but if you don't want to tell me I can't force it out of you, now come on"

he grabs my hand "let's go to the beach" I smile at him he half smiles back letting me know he's not happy that I didn't answer his question, we start walking to the beach making small talk, we sit by the edge of the shore where the tide just about touches out feet

"So Riley you know how the first part of me winning the bet was that I go to take you on a date" I look at him "Yeah?" He looks at his feet "Well there's this banquet for Juilliard that's being held here during the summer it's in a week or so and I was wondering....If you'd like to be my date" I feel my cheeks get hot "it's a masquerade" it's cute how he gets nervous

"I'd love to be your date Jayden" his head snaps up and he looks at me, how can he be so insecure about himself he's perfection "Really?" He grins "yeah really I just don't have anything to wear" he waves his hand "Not a problem I can fix that we can go dress shopping one of these day"

"I'm not letting you buy anythin for me Jayden" he grabs my hand "too bad I wasn't asking permission" he laughs I roll my eyes I'm not letting him buy me anything. "better yet my nana can go with you, I know nothing about dresses"

his nana? "who's your nana?" "She's the women my mother hired to take care of me when I was younger, her names Engrit she raised my as her own she could basically be my mom" His mom didn't take care of him "What about your mom?" I feel my chest get tight

"My mom passed away when I was 4" he squeezes my hand "I'm sorry Riley" I shake my head "don't be, I can't remember much about her or what she looked like" he nods "So your dad raised you, is that who you live with now?" I flinch at the thought of that man "No. He wasn't much of a father figure he was an alcoholic and a drug addict" I say coldly

"Is that why your addicted?" I look at Jayden for a while "No he isn't the reason on why I do drugs" is he? "then why do you? Wait who do you live with?" "Uh" what do I tell him? "I uh live with a childhood friend" he nods "is he or she the reason why you do drugs?" "Well Zacks a dealer-"

I quickly stop talking "you can't repeat any of that." I say in a panic "Riley calm down I'm just asking questions about you so I can get to know you better I'm not going to go tell anyone this" my heart still doesn't stop racing in my chest

"can we talk about something else.." He nods and changed the subject after a while it starts to get late "I have to go" jay nods and we both stand up "can I-uh do something before you leave?" I look at him confused before I can respond Jayden's lips are on mine

•Tonight just take me

To the other side

Sparks fly like

The Fourth of July

I see that sexy look in your eyes

And I know we ain't friends anymore if we walk

Down this road we'll be lovers

For sure So tonight kiss me like it's do or die And take me to the other side•

When Jayden breaks the kiss we're both breathless he smiles at me I smile back "see you tomorrow?" I bite my lip and nod I start heading home, I manage to get there before Zack so I take a shower and change into my Pajamas, after a little while the door swings opens and Zack stumbles through

I smell the alcohol from the bedroom, I get off the bed and go to the living room "Who the fuck is Jayden!" I feel my heart stop "What?" Zack grabs my arm I wince "don't play stupid with me you little bitch!"

He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a picture of me and Jayden walking into the Chinese place holding hands "Who the fuck is he!!!" I flinch "you little cheating bitch! I'll teach you to cheat on me" Zack starts hitting me he doesn't stop till I'm on the ground sobbing

, "you want some attention I'll give you attention!" Zack reaches for my shirt and rips it off I scream because I know what he's going to do he grabs me by the hair and starts dragging me to the room I thrash

but as soon as we get to the room he locks the door and slaps me so hard across the face that my vision blurs. He throws me on the bed gets on top of me and pins me down with one hand holding my hands and the other taking off my pants,

I keep thrashing but it's no use I can get out of his grip. He unzips his zipper and starts pounding into me, my body screaming in pain, he moves his hands and places them at my shoulders pressing me against the bed so hard that I can't move my arms.

He starts pushing down on my shoulders so I meet his thrusts causing it to hurt a thousand times worse, it seems like forever before he finishes... He picks me up by the hair and throws me into the bathroom locking me in it. I stay on the floor silently sobbing feeling the blood dripping down my leg

I tried to get up but my core

Screamed in pain he promised me he promised me he'd never hurt me but he broke it he broke that promise

but He saved my life I can't leave him just for this..... it....I don't... it must be alcohol that's it it's just the alcohol making him act this way he's angry he found out about Jayden

if this is the only way he can relieve his stress and pain it's the least I can do for him I owe him everything... But one things for sure I can't stop seeing Jayden there's just something about him he he makes me feel safe he makes me feel protected of course

Zack has to but lately he's been very not protective I guess.. After a while of sobbing I force myself to get up i crawl over to the shower and start running hot water I push myself up and into the tub,the hot water it feels so good I stay there for as long as possible.

When the water gets cold I get out of the tub and grab some towels and lay them on the floor I lay top of the towels and I sleep there for the night too scared to leave. I don't want to know what Zacks doing and I don't want to go through this again not tonight
