Don't Let Me Go

Chapter 4

I tried to walk past him but he stopped me from doing so. How come every time I'm alone he is always mysteriously there? That thought kind of scares me.

"Huh." Was all Connor said. Of course me out of all people have to run into him.

Connor's arm was still wrapped around me, so I wiggled out of his grasp and moved away from him. "Why are you so afraid of me?" He asked, but a sarcastic smile on his face.

I rolled my eyes. Seriously? I turned on my heel and walked away but Connor got ahold of my arm which made me bump into his chest. His grip on me was firm and I couldn't move anywhere.

"Tell me why." Connor said, sounding so powerful and demanding.

I didn't say anything, instead Connor was just looking at me like he was planning something. I heard sirens and people running from outside, so I pushed Connor off me and turned the other way to leave. I didn't hear him following behind me, so I took the hint that he may have given up.

I pushed the door open and seen Trinity right away, the police were just pulling in and everyone was running off the field. We jumped into her car and drove back.

"That's one reason why I stick to soccer, and normal routine. Not having parties like that." I said, sounding a bit rude but I didn't regret it one bit. I was right and Trinity should know that.

"Come on Bella. It wasn't even that bad." I rolled my eyes and turned my attention towards her.

"Right. So people doing all these different drugs on every corner I walk into, and everyone being as loud as they can be while music is blaring, outside and near peoples homes, is not bad?" She stayed quiet and I knew I shut her up.

Trinity pulled into my driveway and I got out of the car without saying anything to her. I fiddled around in my pocket to find the keys, as I heard her car door open.

"Bella I'm sorry alright?" She yelled. I did not say anything, instead I walked in the house and locked the door behind me.

Sure bringing me to a party isn't bad. But even after I have told her multiple times to not bring me, she should probably listen.

I turned on the light and seen dad passed out on the couch with a beer bottle in his hand, and the remote in the other. I shook my head, seeing him like this after I come home alone multiple times is not a surprising sight to me anymore.

Plugging in my headphones, I laid back on my bed and shut my eyes, soon the darkness of the room surrounding me leaving myself with music and my thoughts running through my mind.

Neymar and I planned on going for dinner tomorrow at seven, and it is a 'really fancy' restaurant. I was never down for fancy stuff, but I mean I'm going with Neymar, one of the most greatest players of all time.

I sat back and just thought about how my life changed in just one day. It is so hard to wrap my head around the thought that I actually met my favourite soccer player, trained with him and now he's taking me out to dinner. It is honestly so unreal. It was like a normal day, but everything just flipped and made it a day I will never forget.

"Bella what the hell is this?" My dad said pounding on my door, then soon entering in my room. I rubbed my eyes and threw my blankets, uncovering my face.

"What dad?" I groaned and sat up. He stuck his phone in my face and I seen pictures of Neymar and I at the field yesterday. I squinted my eyes. Are you serious? When did people take these?

"This is you and that one soccer boy you've always obsessed over!" He started to raise his voice, shouldn't he be happy for me?

"I wasn't obsessing over him. John brought him there to train with me!" I yelled back, which made him look even more angry. I laid back on my bed and tossed the blankets back over my head.

He rolled his eyes. "I told you to stay away from boys." My dad groaned. I am an adult now, and considered to do the things I please. He isn't even there for me anymore so I'm not quite sure why he is complaining that I was seen with a guy. Especially when Neymar was only helping me practice for soccer.

My dad didn't say anything else except for storming out of my room and slamming my door behind him. I fell back onto my bed, groaning and running my fingers through my hair. I looked out the window, cloudy and the trees moving with the wind.

I decided to text Trinity, since she was so up-to-date with all the fashion, I thought she could help me out for tonight. The thought of me going on a date never really crossed my mind, but now since it's happened so quickly I am not even prepared for it. She seemed okay with everything, and told me she has a few dresses back at her house so we made plans for me to go there.

I hopped into the shower before leaving, which gave me some time to think over tonight.

I let the warm water drip down my back as I thought about tonight. How will this turn out? Will we even continue to see each other after this date? Is this all a big act? No, it can't be an act...

That thought made me worry, but I wanted to avoid it.

I finished up my shower and wrapped a towel around my hair and my body. I dried up, and picked out some cute shorts, and a nice tank top with my vans. Slipping into the clothes, I pulled out my hair dryer and started to dry up my hair until my phone started to ring.

Caller ID showed up on my screen, so I ignored the call and returned back to my routine. Nearly seconds later, the same number showed up on my screen and this time I answered it.

"Is there a Bella there?" A mans voice ringed through the other end. My eyebrows scrunched in confusion. I look at my phone screen then back to the call. "Yes, this is Bella?"

"I seen what happened last night with Connor. Just making sure if everything is okay." I had no clue who this man was, and he was seeing if I was okay.

"Yeah, I'm perfectly fine but who is this?" I questioned, as I put my phone on speaker and started to get ready. I heard he man curse. "I totally forgot, I'm Matthew, I was at the party last night and I'm a close friends with Trinity."

I was still confused, I've never met a Matthew last night. I thanked him for calling, and we hung up. It was quite odd but I ignored that.

--

"Do you know any Matthew's by any chance?" I asked Trinity, as I spun around in the mirror examining my plum coloured dress I had on.

"Yeah I do. Why?" I shook my head and placed my hands on my hips. "He called me today. How did he get my number?"

I looked back at Trinity and she shrugged. "Not quite sure. He finds a way to get every ones number so I wouldn't be surprised if I were you." I laughed and walked into her closet.

I examined this dress some more in her mirror. "I don't know if I look right in this one." I said, and looked over at her. Trinity looked up from her phone and shook her head.

"I told you I like the black one instead!" I groaned and stripped out of this one, as I wrapped the robe around me. "This is going to take a while."
