Lies My Mother Told Me

Chapter 18: Death

RECAP FROM LAST CHAPTER!!!

I slipped off my clothes one by one and tossed them on the floor. I swooped them up and folding them neatly placing them in the hamper Kelly gave to me for my clothes. I stood in front of the full body mirror in just my bra and panties glaring at my reflection. I never realized how skinny my legs were. They were as skinny as pretzel sticks. Suddenly the lights flashed off. What the hell? I walked over to the stairs and searched for he light. It was pitch black and I couldn't see a thing. A hand grabbed onto my arm and shoved me down to the floor. I tried to scream. But it beat me to it. Their hands were already clamped down on my mouth muffling any sound I make.  

"If you try to run I will hurt you, if you fight back I will hurt you, if you scream I will hurt you. Now we don't want that now do we?" a voice growled

"I'll be right back," I said jumping off her bed shirtless and in boxers. I raced out of the bedroom and into the hallway. She called after me but I ignored her. I searched around the hallway for the bathroom. No one else was home so I wasn't cautious to open any doors. Her parents' anniversary was today and would be spending the rest of the night at a hotel. I opened a door at the end of the hallway and it was the bathroom. I quickly got in and slammed the door shut before she could come running in. I didn't hear her get up from the bed. I twisted the door locked. The bathroom was all red. Red and black tiles, red shower curtain, red mat, red soap, red...toilet cushion? I rushed to the sink. I flicked on the cold water and put my face to the sink. I splashed ice cold water onto my face. The coldness made me shiver and made my hairs stand on end. I can't believe what was going on. What the hell was wrong with me? Why did I let her do that to me? I didn't even like her. She just looked so sexy there... No! You like Summer! Yea...but what's wrong with a little friend with benefits thing until Summer's mine? Bro! You can't use a girl like that!? Yea...but it's not really usining if she likes it...

These conversations with myself really needed to stop.

I inhaled and exhaled deep breaths and gathered myself together. I stared at my reflection in the mirror. I said to myself in a little whisper so Erin wouldn't here me if she was waiting outside the door.

"You're not an asshole. You don't use girls like that. You're leaving," I whispered. I heaved a big sigh and headed towards the door. I twisted the lock and cracked the door open a little bit. I poked my head out of the door and looked around. She wasn't there. I sighed and stepped out of the bathroom flicking the light off. I walked back to the room. I found her propped up on the bed fiddling with the little bow that connected to her bra. I was second guessing myself...maybe I should stay...

"Sorry I ran off like that.." I said. She looked up at me and giggled. WHY THE HELL DID THIS GIRL ALWAYS FREAKING GIGGLE? She hopped off the bed and pranced towards me in her bra and shorts. She placed her tiny hands on my shoulders and gently squeezed.

"It's okay...you were just getting cold feet...typical for virgins," she cooed. She planted her head on my chest. I quickly pushed her off. I looked at her weirdly and let out a laugh. I couldn't help but laugh. She thought I was a virgin???

"I'm not a virgin..." I said. Her mouth dropped to the floor.

"I could have swore you were!" she shouted. Why was this such a big surprise to her? Did I look like a virgin? She curled her fingers in her hair with that shocked expression still plastered on her face.
