Chapter 14 - I'm Still A Virgin, Smartass

"Okay. I'm sorry for telling you this, but we all know it must be done. You'll hate it too, but I know you will agree with me." I tried easing into the conversation.

"For Christ sake, woman. Just spit it out already!" Ray spat, causing Marcus and Jordan to snap towards his direction and shoot him a glare.

His attitude took me by surprise and I jumped slightly.

I wanted to yell at him. I wanted to scream at him. He already kidnapped me. He has no right to be an asshole about a small conversation. I would talk back at him but there's a chance he could pull a gun out and shoot me then and there.

Ray has been in a bad mood all day, but now he's taking it out on me. It's really irritating.

I looked to the ground, trying my best to refrain myself from slapping him. "We need to go shopping for more clothes. It would be nice for you to order more of this uniform so I don't have to wear the same thing every day." I said quietly.

Ray frowned and Thing 2 & 3's glare deepened. Ray couldn't figure out why they were glaring but the message in their eyes said "Look what you've done. Calm your shit and be nicer to the poor girl!"

Today hasn't been the best. I woke up a few hours ago and I've already been kissed, teased, and yelled at.

Jordan took his eyes off of Ray and smiled softly at me. "Of course we'll take you shopping. Sure it'll be painful, but it's the least we can do."

Marcus nodded in agreement as he took his eyes off of Ray as well.

Ray then glared at me. "Fuck no. Do you two idiots see what she's trying to do??"

Jordan and Marcus went back to glaring at him but I could see the curiosity in their eyes.

He looked at them. "She's using us for our money! She's probably going to buy the most expensive thing in the world and hog it for herself." Ray then looked at me and spat again. "Selfish brat."

My heart ached at the name. I haven't been bullied in a couple days and it has already taken a toll on me.

Memories of the bullying crashed into my mind like a tsunami consuming a panicking village. The kicks and punches, stress eating and then starving myself for months, being thrown to the ground millions of times and then making the effort to get back up, just to be pushed down again. It all hurt so much. I never had the courage to tell anybody either.

I choked back a sob at the memories, tears threatening to spill. I was fine a couple minutes ago, so why do I feel so vulnerable all of the sudden? This conversation escalated too quickly for me to process.

"N-no, that wasn't my intention. I swear. W-we can go to Goodwill if you want." I mumbled apologetically.

"Trying to act like the victim now? How do you think it makes me feel when a whore tries using my money for expensive shit that she'll brag about to her friends? Oh wait, you don't have any!" Ray growled.

That's a new one. Whore. I've never been called a 'whore' yet. I laughed bitterly in my mind. I'm still a virgin, smartass.

But on the outside, I took a step back in surprise, letting a single tear fall down my cheek.

"Enough, Ray!" Marcus spoke up. "I know you're mad about last night, but there's no need to take it out on Melissa! What's gotten into you!?"

As Marcus continued to bark at Ray, Jordan stood up and walked towards me. "Hey, I'm sorry about him. We had an argument last night and he's been really pissy about it ever since. Are you okay?" Jordan lifted a hand to my face and wiped my tear away with his thumb.
