My Crazy Ex-Boyfriend

Chapter 10

-Edited-

It had worked ! Nicholas took the bait just like I thought he would ! Now I just needed to figure out what to do next.

He put me on his bed and rushed to find a thermometer from what I assume. I opened one eye just in time to see him rush off.

I looked around to see if there was anywhere I could go and the only way out was through the door Nicholas had left open.

I knew that was too risky right now because he could show up at any moment and if he caught me...he'd know I was acting.

My mind went back to when he raped me...i knew he'd use this as an excuse to do it again.

*bang* *bang*

I jumped when I heard a banging noise.

What was that ? I heard it again. It sounded like someone was knocking on the door. I was tempted to run downstairs screaming for help but I stopped myself.

A door opens and I hear someone calling Nicholas' name. Was that his Dad ? I remember meeting him once when we were dating. He was nice, he would help me ...right ?

I hear feet stomping up the stairs, his name is called again. I rush to the doorway and almost smash into his Dad.

When he sees the condition I'm in, he gasps. I genuinely believe he was in the dark about his son's behavior.

"Melanie? " His Dad said." What happened to you ?"

I was silent for a moment. Did I really want to tell his Father what his son had been doing to me ? It break his heart... but i also couldn't let a opportunity to escape pass me by..

"Nicholas did this to me."I finally said after a long pause."He's been holding me hostage here !"

I could feel tears running down my cheeks. I just couldn't hold in my emotions any longer. 

"Why would he do that ?" His Dad asked." You seemed fine the last time I saw you.."

I didn't blame him for being in shock but he didn't know his son as well as he thought he did. Did he even know about the breakup or restraining order ? Probably not, Nic was good at hiding things. Especially from me..

"Dad ?"

I jumped, Nicholas entered the room. His eyes widened as he saw me standing there with his Father.

"What are you doing here ?"He asked, trying to pretend like nothing was wrong.

"What's going on here son ?"His Dad demanded."Why is she covered in bruises ?"

He was silent, he looked completely blank.

"ANSWER ME DAMN IT !"His Dad shouted."Did you kidnap her ?"

"This isn't what it looks like.."Nicholas said.
