You yelped as Candace grabbed you by your hair and dragged you across the room.
"C-C-Candace!"
"Shut up!"
You fell silent with the exception of your soft whimpers as she dumped you on the bed. Scurrying back, you wished you could become one with the headboard as Candace pulled her shirt off.
You remember when you had been overjoyed when Candace asked you out. Now, you wish you had ran in the other direction as fast as you could.
Candace pulled you from your thoughts by pulling you to her. She leaned over and kissed your neck. You pushed her away only to be slapped in return. Tears formed in your eyes and threatened to fall but you wiped them away, looking at the ceiling while Candace did as she pleased.
Sending a silent prayer, begging for help, mercy, or even your death.

Jazmon saw the bruise on your neck causing her to frown and glare daggers at Candace. Jazmon has the biggest crush on you and wondered why you picked Candace over her. Granted, Candace was prettier, but she was an asshole.
You left the locker room and She followed, pretending to be going to start practicing but instead followed you.
You ended up in the ice room, rubbing your eyes before sobbing. Jazmon caught you as you began to fall, steadying you.
For once in a long time, you felt warmth. All you wanted was to stay like that. You turned and buried your face in the chest of whoever this was. You smelled cinnamon, a comforting smell that reminded you of the hot chocolate you and your friends make on winter trips.
Jazmon had never seen you cry and was worried, terrified, and upset. Since you began your relationship with Candace you had changed. You no longer played fight with Erlana, or let Erica pick you up. Briann wouldn't ask you to do her hair or come over.
"Are you okay?"
You peered up and saw Jazmon. She was a sweetheart. The tall woman had made it clear she liked you the moment she met you but you had gently turned her down. You wondered if she would treat you differently.
"N-N-No."
"What's wrong?"
"Candace..."
"What did she do?"
Jazmon wasn't ready for what you told her and was doing everything in her power not to find the older player and kill her. Jazmon hugged you tight.
"I won't let her hurt you anymore."
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
As soon as practice ended, Jazmon grabbed your bag. You blinked before following her, taking her hand.
"You can stay at my place until further notice"
"Thank you..."
"Don't mention it. I'd do it again in a heartbeat."
You smiled and Jazmon grinned as you two got in her car, leaving.
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
Jazmon felt another body next to her abs blinked twice before realising it was you. You wore one of her hoodies and were snoring softly. Jazmon hugged you, grabbing her phone. She took a selfie of you buried in her chest, sleeping.
Jazmon fell back asleep, holding you close.
🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
You added the pancake to the stack and chuckled as Jazmon grinned.
"Do you want to go today?"
"Huh?"
Jazmon smiled.
