NAKED // c.h

|chapter two|

My eyes flutter open and I groan. I feel a sharp pain in my ribs and look down to see a large hand groping my tender breast.

I jump at the sight and luke stirrs beside me. I slip from beneath his grip and scurry towards my shoes which are in the corner of my room....SHIT...Where do i go? This is my house after all.

I slip my shoes on and make my way towards the door. I cannot stay in a room with my psychotic boyfriend as the stench of his alcohol breath is making me gag.

As i open the door my memories from last night flood back. The door squeaks open and i rush through it as I see luke move behind me. I trip over the wooden threshold and fall flat on the floor.

I rush to regain my standing but slip on the way up and hear loud footsteps coming from my room. I stand and sprint towards my bathroom door.

I slam the door behind me and lock it and that's when the banging begins.

'Allie.' he says 'Allie-May, please let me explain myself.'

I try and hold in my tears but as soon as he starts mentioning last night I just break. Tears stream down my face but I hold in the whimpering noise that wants to escape my lips.

He knows what he did, although he doesn't want to admit it. He knows that he took away the small fraction of innocence I had left.

The front door slams shut and I fall to the floor in tears. I undress and pull the shower curtain shut as I begin to run the shower.

I realise that he actually had the decency to dress me after the stupid mistake he made last night.

I slowly get in the shower and the steam makes my thoughts cloud up. I can still feel his strong arm gripping my body aggressively and it sends a shiver down my spine.

The front door opens and shuts with a slam. I assume it is Cassie, my sister as she is usually the only one here apart from Luke. My parents are always working late and leaving for work early so we my sister and I hardly see them.

I slip out of the shower and into a towel and begin the short walk to my room. I don't want to even sit on my bed as I may see the stains of last nights events. SHÎT.

I haven't taken birth control and whatttt. What if. OH MY GOD.

I run to my wardrobe and pick out jeans and a sweater. I throw them on and slip on my converse. I sprint down the stairs to see Cassie in the living room, her eyes glued to the TV screen.

'Uhh, I'm just going out for a bit, won't be too long' I mumble into the room. She pays no attention what so ever but nods as she clearly knew I had spoken.

I rush out of the door and into my car. In 5 minutes I am at the pharmacy but the line in huge.

I patiently wait in the back of the queue and there are around 7 people in front of me and after 5 minutes there are another 4 people behind me. It is 8:30am.

After 30 minutes of waiting I'm finally at the front of the large line but because of the subject being birth control I am frozen with embarrassment and my speech is nonexistent.

I hear people chattering around me but the pharmacist keeps moving her mouth but all I can hear is the beating of my heart.

'Hello, what can I help you with today?' She says in the most polite voice.

'Erm...I...Uhhh...I need the morning after pill.' I say a little bit to loud. Actually, very loud as most of the people standing behind me turn and stare at me.

My cheeks flush red and I suddenly become very hot in the face. Embarrassment overwhelms me.

The woman then takes me into a small room and pulls a small silver packet out of a little white basket.

She asks me how old I am, my name and so on...Then she asks me how long ago I had sexual intercourse and I really didn't know when it was so I replied simply 'Around 12 hours ago.' as I based it off around the time Luke turned up at my house.

I think she noticed the worried expression on my face as she concernedly says 'Are you okay? Do you need to talk about anything?' I then simply shake my head and take the packet from her hand.  I mumble a 'thank you' as I leave the small room and rush out of the place.

I get back to my car and get in. I grab the bottle of water to my right and take the tablet, slowly gulping the drink.

A rush of relive passes through my body as I now do not have to deal with explaining to all of my CHRISTIAN family how I got pregnant. They definitely would not be happy with Luke.

I start driving back to my house as I am really not in the mood for anything but sleeping today. I feel so exhausted and drained which is never like me as I'm usually always bubbly and happy. Guess he took that away from me too.

I arrive at my house and see a tall bay dressed in black stood at my front door. Luke.

'Just get out of here and leave me alone Luke' I mumble as I brush past him 'I never want to see you or speak to you again. We're over.'

My eyes start to fill but I hold the tears in as I know I'm stronger than this and that he deserves to feel pain after what he put me through.

He opens his mouth to speak but then closes it abruptly, softly frowns and makes his way down the driveway.

I then walk into my house and rush up the stairs, not saying a word to anyone and let the silence take over my thoughts.
