Nathan in media

Kelley's POV

I slightly wake up to the warm sensation of someone's chest. Damn what happened I was just watching something. Oh god did I have sex with someone!? I suddenly get up to see Nathan under me.

"What the fuck!?" I scream, it was so loud it woke him up.

"What? What!?" He got up fast looking confused.

"You bastard! You lowdown dirty, twisted, psychotic, bastard HOW COULD YOU!?" I start crying

"Kel I was jus-" I cut him off

"Don't..." I take a deep breath "Do not call me Kel"

"Kelley let me explain." He cries

"EXPLAIN WHAT!? Explain what huh h-h-how you sexually violated me? Explain how you drugged me up and used me? Explain how you took away my morals huh?"

"I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO YOU OKAY!" Nathan screamed "I didn't... do anything to you. You were having a really bad nightmare and you wouldn't go to sleep unless I held you so I took a nap with you. I'm sorry."

I felt so horrible accusing him of those horrible things I felt that I didn't have a choice to tell him a secret that only my grandmother knows.

"Nathan I'm sorry can you please just hear me out for a second."

"What is it?"

"Well you know I came out when I was 13 right?"

"What does that have to do with anything?"

"Please." I say

*exhales* "Okay" he says.

"I had a um..... I had an uncle and he had kids and I spent the night over there and-"

"Oh my God no, did he do anything to you?"

"No, but his son did."

That day changed my life forever, we were having a sleepover and my cousin Trent was 16, I was 14. It was the middle of the night and I got up to get something to drink and he came behind me and put his hand over my mouth and said

"I heard you like niggas, let me show you what a real one can do."

I tried so hard to run and scream but he was too strong and when I tried to scream he took me down to the basement and made me do things that no 14 year old should ever do. He raped me, he molested me he did everything and when I told my uncle he had the audacity to look me directly in my eye and say

"You seduced my son you faggot."

After I told Nathan that I broke down and he comforted me again and I felt safe. I felt like I was protected and really, I just wanted the day to end.

The next day we were right back up at the recreation center for the sober living meeting I pop one of the pills I need, and of course Nathan wasn't feeling the meeting but I forced him in again. We walk in and the same people are there except for that one guy who seem to be reading my thoughts. The leader opens the meeting and they do some coping exercises and they share their stories. While I was listening the guy from last time came in and sat a little closer to me.

"Hey, I'm Derrick." He said extending his hand out for a handshake.

"I'm Kelley." I say while I shake his hand.

"Cool name."

"Thanks." I say

We sat in awkward silence listening to their stories for what seemed to be forever so I decide to ask him a couple questions of my own.

"Why did you storm out the other day?"

"I was upset that you thought I was crazy I kinda take peoples opinions to heart." He said

"So you were reading my mind.. are you some kind of supernatural or something." I ask

He chuckles

"No, I'm not I could hear what you were saying. You were talking out loud."

"Ohh okay I kinda thought you had powers."

"Shhhhh!" The association leader says.

Nathan looked at me like he didn't know what I was doing. But by that time it was time for a break and thankfully they brought pizza. Nathan comes over to me and starts asking why I was talking during the meeting. He's treating me like a 5 year old.

"Boy I'm a grown ass man I do what ever I want." I say to him. I look up and see Derrick walk out. I follow him and I see him sitting on the bleachers inside the gym.

"You can't keep running from your problems you know." I say as I walk up to where he's sitting.

"I know I just don't see my purpose for being there, I feel empty."

"Well the leader she was talking something about sponsors and getting one to talk to and stuff. We could be each others if you want." I say.

"Yeah but you're not in the group." He says disappointed.

"So what, we all need somebody to talk to about stuff. Here give me your number and I'll text you later today."

We exchange numbers he leaves and i start walking back to the conference room. He is so cute, I swear I don't know what it is about him but I feel as though I can relate to him so much.

Nathan came out with a plate full of food saying he's ready to go and that he's driving this time I tell him whatever and head to the car.

"You know I'm not about to let you drive with a plate full of food in your hands right?" I say to him.

"I got it Kel." He says as he's pulling out the driveway.

"Whatever."

He starts driving and we're cracking jokes on people at the campus. We reach our street intersection and we don't have a stop sign on our side of the road but the others do. I look over to the side and see an SUV coming our way and not stopping.

"NATHAN WATCH OUT!"

He slammed the breaks but it was too late.
