Memories > Miljah (MikexEj)

XI

July 15, 2015

Jacob had finally came back from his parents home and Elijah couldn't feel more ecstatic about it. He missed having his best friend around even though it was only for a week but still, it felt like it was eternity. Elijah couldn't wait to spill everything that happened to him in the last couple of days from going on a date with Mike to almost accusing Mike of being the one who raped him. Speaking of Mike, Elijah hadn't seen or talked to him since he had another memory of that night. He thought Mike was upset at him for blaming him for being the rapist but how could you blame Elijah, everybody was a suspect in his eyes.

Skipping along to Jacob's room, he saw Ray and Jon sitting on the curb passing a blunt back and forth. Elijah's heart began beating hard and he felt nervous around Ray after that day. Especially with him around Jon, there was no telling what them two could do. Elijah figured if he just ignore them and act as if they don't exist then maybe nothing would happen to him but he was sadly wrong because the minute he walked passed them without looking in they direction, Ray stood up and stopped in front of him.

"Can we talk please? All I want is for us to talk about what what happened between us. I swear Elijah, I am really sorry for what I said. I was just tired of Jacob always coming down my neck when it comes to you. I really care about you and I want to make it up. I swear." Ray grabbed Elijah's hands gently and Elijah gasped softly because Ray was never this sincere before even when they were friends. Elijah pouted a little bit and moved his hands back because this wasn't right.

He couldn't trust Rayan, no matter what. After all them vile words were spilled, he couldn't even look at Ray the same because every time he sees him, that's all he remembers. It hurts to know that one of his closest friends, had to be one of the ones who broke him.

"No.." Elijah spoke softly and backed up but Jon stood behind Elijah and grabbed his waist which caused Elijah to tense up. He stared at Ray who had this smirk on his face because either way he was gone get what he wanted. The bulge rubbing against his butt made Elijah eyes water up because this was almost like deja vu that he couldn't escape from. He breathed in deeply and then elbowed Jon in the ribcage causing him to let go and double over. Elijah took that opportunity to run.

Ray ran after Elijah who picked up speed and kept running, literally trampling over somebody. Elijah fell forward and cried out at the excruciating pain when he slid against the ground. His arms had slight road burn but his hand throbbed horribly from trying to stop the fall. The person he ran over, groaned and looked over at Elijah to see the tears falling down his broken eyes. He stood up after brushing himself off and looked over between Ray who stood there and Elijah who was crying about his hand. Elijah looked up and recognized the face of who he ran over.

"M-mike.." Elijah whimpered. Mike smiled softly and crouched down at him. "Hurts.." Was all that Elijah was able to manage out before crying again when his  hand began to throb even more.

Mike heart ached at the crying boy so he picked him up gently and glared at Ray who had this scowl stuck on his face. "Can you move it?" Mike asked. Elijah nodded. "Okay that's good. You probably badly sprained it. I got a wrist brace back at my room but when we get there, you can tell me what the hell is going on."

Mike stepped up to Ray and growled. "Don't let me catch you near him ever again."

As it grew night time, Elijah had forgot about visiting Jacob and stayed with Mike the whole day. After explaining what happened between him and Ray, getting bandaids put on his road rash and a brace wrapped around his wrist, he didn't bother to leave. Elijah feels as if everything bad happens to him and maybe he doesn't deserve happines. Maybe happiness is overrated for him.

"You okay boo?" Mike asked while sitting next to him on the bed. Elijah nodded his head but inside he felt as if he was lying to himself. Of course he wasn't okay. He would never be okay because being okay wasn't a norm for him.

He was meant to be unhappy and he knows that eventually that will happen between him and Mike.

"Hey....listen that Ray guy isn't going to come near you ever again okay. He isn't going to harm you no more." Mike promised and ran his hands through Elijah thick curls.

Elijah leaned into his touch and smiled. Or more like blushed but then he frowned.

He just doesn't believe in promises anymore.

Next chapter, you'll see what Ray wanted from Elijah, hell he might get it. 😆

Oh so flashbacks happen in increments of every 5 chapters.

Honestly if I was y'all, I would pay close attention because I throw a lot of foreshadow in these chapters.

And i wouldn't trust any character EXCEPT for Raya and Jazzi. They the only ones. I'm just saying but i don't know much, i'm just the author lmao
