Sophia Mendes-Secrets

Trust Me

Hayes and I wake up the next morning and he gets out of the bunk. He picks me up and sets me lightly on the ground. He leads me back to my suitcase and pulls out underwear and a bra for me. Then he grabs a short sleeved t-shirt from his suitcase. I hands me the clothes and pulls me into the bathroom.

"Take a shower and then get dressed into those and I'll be waiting outside for you." Hayes says.

I nod and look at the shirt he gave me. Hayes lifts up my chin so I'm looking at him.

"Hey, don't be scared. I'm not gonna let you wear sweatshirts and leggings anymore. We all love you no matter what. You don't need to hide yourself anymore." Hayes says giving me a quick kiss on the lips.

He leaves the bathroom and shuts the door. I set the clothes down and turn the shower on. I undress and hop in doing my normal routine. Like washing my hair, body, face, shaving. I get out a wrap myself in a towel. I brush my teeth and the dry off my body. I slowly get dressed and look at myself in the mirror. The shirt goes to about mid thigh. It's a faded blue color. Suddenly, there's a knock on the door.

"Soph, are you ready to come out?" Hayes asks.

I don't respond, I'm still scared to go out.

"Sophia, do I need to bust open this door?" Hayes threatened.

I let out a sigh and unlock the door and open it. Hayes is right there in the doorway. He has both arms on the doorframe blocking anyway of me getting around him. I look at the floor and try to hide my arms behind my back. Hayes reaches around and pulls my arms in front of me. He takes me to him bunk and picks me up putting me on the bed. He gets up and closes the curtain. He then hovers his body over mine. His legs on on either side of mine, he's resting on his elbows, and his face is a few inches from mine. I look into his eyes but then divert my eyes to my hands.

"You're so cute." Hayes spoke up.

I look at him confused.

"Don't look at me like that. You are so cute and adorable!" Hayes says.

I then feel my sides being tickled and I giggled like crazy.

"I've missed your laugh." Hayes admits.

"I've missed you." I say.

Hayes gives me a deep and passionate kiss.

"Do you trust me." Hayes asks.

"Of course I do." I respond.

"Okay then stay calm and trust me on this." He says.

"On what?" I ask

"You'll see." Hayes responds.

Hayes puts one hands lightly on my chest. He puts the others at the bottom of the shirt I'm wearing. He slowing starts to pull up my shirt until it reaches my stomach. My heart is starting to pound, and fear kicks in a bit.

"Hey, hey, hey don't be scared. I promise I won't hurt you or do anything bad." Hayes says.

I start to calm down slowly. Hayes takes the bottom of the shirt again and lifts it farther. He gets it over my head delicately and places it next to the pillow. He looks my body up and down. He takes his hand and traces over the scars left on my body from that night. He traces the scars on my arms, my stomach, and my legs.

"Lay on your stomach." Hayes demands.

I turn over and lay on my stomach. I feel his hands go up and down my back. There are scars and a few bruises left on my back. It was the worst because of being slammed and moved across the asphalt that night. I feel Hayes unhook my bra and I let out a soft whimper.

"Shhh, it's okay. I'm just looking at your back, I'm not going to do anything." Hayes whispers.

He leans down and kisses my cheek and strokes my hair. He then gets something out of his pocket and I hear a picture being taken. I tense up, not really feeling comfortable about all this. Hayes clips my bra back and then flips me over. He nuzzles his head in the crook of my neck.

"The picture is just for Shawn and the boys, okay?" Hayes asks.

"Okay." I whisper back.

Hayes grabs his t-shirt and puts it back on me with ease. He lays next to me, but then pulls me body on top of his. He puts the blanket over us and holds me tightly to his chest.

"I'm so so sorry, baby. I will never let anything happen to you again." Hayes says.

"I believe you, but you have to forgive yourself, it wasn't your fault." I says.

"I should've looked for you, I should've been able to tell that something was wrong." Hayes says.

"Don't say that, Hayes." I mumble.

"I still feel terrible, but it's going to get better now, okay?" Hayes asks.

I nod my head and Hayes kisses my forehead.

"Go to sleep sweetheart, we have a show tomorrow so it's going to be a long day for. But don't get scared we're going to have someone with you all the time." Hayes tells me.

"Okay" I say shaking a bit in fear.

"I promise nothing will happen to you and anyone who tries will regret it. The boys and I are here for you." Hayes reassures me.

I look up at him and smile. I put my head down and closes my eyes.

"Goodnight Hayes." I say.

"Goodnight baby, I promise that this will be okay. I'm never going to let another thing happen to you again." Hayes whispers.
