"I hadn't realized how long we spent shopping." Laughed Kaylen as we walked into my apartment wobbling like penguins as I walked to my couch I dropped my bag on the floor while Kaylen also carried a few of my bags.
"It was totally worth it," I said smiling grabbing two water bottles and handing one to Kaylen, she chugged hers and thanked me after and falling on to the couch.
"Alright well I got to go, grandma is waiting for me back at home." She says heading to the door groaning her way off the couch.
"Alright text me later, bye Kay." I said waving goodbye to her. I grabbed my bags, walked into my room and noticed my window was fixed as well as the glass on the floor. I put my clothes, shoes, hair accessories, makeup, bras, and underwear away which took quite some time, I kind of went overboard when I go shopping with Kaylen.
"Hold on!" I yelled getting up, walking out of my room and seeing who is at the door.
"No stop go away!" I scream shaking in fear, trembling in my own shoes, it's my ex, Andrew.
"You can't hide from me forever Cleo, I've been watching you, with him." He says pushing my door open as I try to push it back, stopping him from getting inside and closing it behind him, I fall to the floor and try to get up as fast as I can but he grabs me by my hair.
"I miss you, all of you." He mumbles as he kisses my neck once he forces me to my feet pulling my head back by my hair.
"No, no, please stop!" I cry out in pain and disgust.
"Come on baby, just like old times." He says pulling my pants down with his one hand along with his, ripping my shirt off after he got his pants down to his lower thigh. I start hitting him trying to get him off of me, hitting him on the arms and in the face.
"Stop!" I scream in his face, he grabs my hands and puts them above my head and kisses my lips, hard, I'm trying to push him away with my legs, but I can't.
"You're so beautiful." He says kissing down my neck, sliding my bra off my shoulders falling in front of us.
"Andrew, no, I don't want this, stop." I cried, turning my face so I don't have to look at him any longer as I seal my eyes shut.
"I missed feeling you under me, on top of me, next to me." He said feeling me up roughly, he starts to slide my underwear down slowly. I start freaking out and squirming trying to get loose as I cry loudly hoping someone would hear me and help me. He takes his underwear off and grabs his penis getting closer to me.
"No, no, no, stop!" I screamed my voice cracking. The door is slammed open, my eyes were still closed as I squirmed under him because I was too afraid of what was going to happen next. I felt Andrews weight off of me and I slide down the wall and covered my body with my legs and covering my face with my hands as I cry into them.
         I could hear Andrew grunting, and sounds of skin to skin contact, then, it finally stopped, and I heard foot-steps distancing themselves from where I am. It's him, it's always him.
"Shh, love it's me, I'm here, he won't hurt you again, I'm here." I don't move from my spot and just feel his weight around my body, shielding me. He just saved me from getting raped, I owe him everything. He takes his shirt off and helps me into it, and I grab a hold of his hand and tightly squeeze him.
"Thank you." I cried into his shoulder squeezing him tightly, afraid to let go.
"Hey, don't thank me, you're my girl, I'd do anything for you." He said lifting me up and carrying me into my room. He set me down on my bed and walked over to my dresser opening a few drawers, he walked back over and handed me underwear and pants.
"Thank you." I say slipping them on and standing up walking towards Jackson wrapping my arms around his waist pulling him closer to me, feeling safe again in his arms. I look up at him and see him already having his eyes on me, I slowly bring my hand to his face and kiss Jackson as he realizes what I'm trying to do he brings his head down closer to me and kisses me.
"Mhm, thank you," I say in the kiss slightly opening my eyes and smiling at him as his eyes are still closed.
"You're my love." He said back to me kissing my lips and then my forehead.
"Do you think I could stay with you, I can't be here for a while, not after, that," I said wrapping my arms around his neck and looking at him waiting for an answer.
"Of course, do you need help packing a few bags?" He said letting go of me and looking around the room at random stuff.
"That would be great," I said going to my closet and grabbing a few duffel bags I had stored away. I handed him one and told him to pack a bunch of random shirts.
"Alright, I think I'm done, ready to go?" I asked Jackson, looking back at him folding the last pair of shorts he had pulled out of my dresser.
"Yeah come on." He said grabbing the last few bags and walking to his car with me in front of him.
"I don't want to leave my car so can I just follow you?" I ask, he looks at me for a minute contemplating on an answer, was he actually going to say no?
"Yeah, let's go, stay close." He says walking around to the driver's side of the door, he gets in his car and I shuffle quickly over to mine. I follow behind him, after a few minutes of a lot of turns we come up to the secluded apartment. He drives into the parking lot and parks into one of the many open spaces and parks, I park beside him. I get out and walk to his car grabbing a few of my bags as he gets out.
"Alright, this is my place." He says grabbing the last two bags after I grabbed one. Once we walk into his apartment, it smells like mint his theme is all dark colors mainly black and grey. But it looked really nice the way he set everything up, he had some really cool drawings hung in frames on his walls.
"Thank you," I say following him into a room, not putting my bags down, I'm assuming is his because it looks used and the bed isn't made.
"Stop saying that, and you can stay in my room, I have another room but that's my office. I can sleep on the couch." He says putting my bags down going to the dresser and moving clothes out of three of them.
"Are you sure? What are you doing?"
"I'm positive, and I'm making your space, you need a place to keep your clothes." He says gesturing to the dresser. I just nod my head and plop on his bed still a bit shook up from earlier. I start staring up at the ceiling drifting off into space, thinking about the potential rape case I would have been in if it wasn't for Jackson.
"Hey, you okay?" I sit up and look at Jackson. I just nod yet again, not comfortable using my voice after all the screaming.
"Just a bit shook up, but I'll be okay," I say sliding my shoes off.
"Alright well I need to go work stuff, I'll be back later tonight, don't wait up, make yourself at home, you can stay as long as you need." He says kissing the top of my head and walking out of the room. I stand up from the bed and stay there until I hear the front door open then close. I grab a duffel bag and look for shorts, underwear, and a bra, I was going to just take one of Jackson's shirts. I walk to his bathroom and take a shower, I take longer than usual because I wanted to get as much of Andrew off me, I feel so dirty.
         Once I finish I step out and get dressed I find one of his shirts and throw it on. I dip into bed after I put my phone on the charger and after checking it and I fell asleep under his heavy blankets.
