Just a Friend (Austin Mahone love story)

Believe Me

Lily's POV

My alarm clock woke me up from my light sleep at six thirty. I opened my eyes to see sunlight shining in through my open window causing me to squint.

I tried to sit up but it hurt a bit.

And that's when I remembered it all.

Tears filled my eyes as I pulled the covers off of me to see a bloody bed sheet. I stood up and pulled off all of my sheets off the bed and threw them in my dirty laundry basket. I saw that the blood bled through to the mattress and so I put my blanket on my bed to cover it up.

I shakily walked to my drawers to pick out an outfit for school. I just picked out a light pink hoodie and black yoga pants. I grabbed a new pair of underwear so I could go and take a shower.

I looked straight ahead as I passed my dad's room. My bottom lip began trembling and tears built up in my eyes.

How could he do that? I asked myself. How could he do that to his own daughter?

It was because he was drunk and didn't know Lily. My conscience told me in a sigh. You know if he wasn't drunk he wouldn't in a million years ever think about doing that. And if you tell people they'll send your father away to jail and you'll end up in a foster home, or worse, back in Canada.

"No!" I whispered in horror. I stopped right outside the bathroom door and looked back at my dad's room. The door was shut and the light was off. "He may have molested me but he's still my father and I love him more than anything."

Then whatever you do, don't tell anybody what happened last night. That's between you and him. You should be lucky it was your father who took your virginity instead of someone else, like Austin.

I continued to walk as my conscience rambled on about how last night was a good thing. "Maybe it was." I mumbled, turning the water on and, after stripping myself of my clothes, getting in. The cold water turned steamy and relaxed my aching body and mind. I shampooed my hair and thought to myself. "He was piss drunk so maybe he won't remember any of it."

Yeah, think like that.

"But, if he ever does, what would I do then?"

Okay, don't think like that.

I rinsed my hair and then went to conditioning. I then rinsed my hair and started to clean my body with body wash but the horrid memory of where he touched me haunted me as I rubbed those areas. I tried to finish it quickly but it made it seem longer.

Turning off the shower I took a deep breath. I had no idea how to handle this, the only thing to do was go to school. I stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body before opening the bathroom door. Everyone was still asleep as I walked down the hallway and into my room. I shut and locked the door then started to dress myself.

I then put my hair in a side braid since I really didn't care how it looked at the moment, I just wanted it out of my face.

After getting dressed I finally saw the bag of Doritos and Arizona Justin had bought for me. I packed them away in my book bag, at least now I have a lunch.

I picked up my bag and slung it over my shoulder. Walking downstairs I felt a headache coming in. I was over thinking.

I opened my door and left my house, a pounding in my head.

I walked down the quiet street to my school, I knew I was way early but I didn't care, I just needed to be out of my house.

"I need to take a breather." I muttered to myself.
