chapter twenty nine

I'm quite happy as I sit down next to Vic. I need to tell him something that I've been trying to contain for two days now. I didn't want to tell him over text though.

"I have amazing news." I say.

But at the same time Vic says, "I have great news."

"You go first." I giggle.

"No, your news is obviously better than mine." he chuckles.

Too excited to argue, I just blurt it our.

"Mr. Benny resigned." I grin.

Vic looks instantly relieved. He wraps his arms around me and kisses my forehead.

"Kell, that's so great." he sighs.

"I know right! I heard that he was beat up pretty bad too. And my new gym teacher is a woman so I don't have to worry about creepy old men staring at my ass."

"Well there's always going to be one creepy old man staring at your ass." Vic jokes as he kisses my neck.

I laugh and push him off me.

"What was your news?" I ask him curiously.

"I got a call from the police this morning. They caught the asshole who forced himself on you at the park. He immediately admitted to the crime so you won't have to go to trial or anything." Vic explains and I'm left in shock.

"What? Really? How much did he get?" I ask eagerly.

"He's actually facing fifteen to thirty years. Turns out there was a warrant already out for his arrest due to some severe child pornography charges." he explains.

"Well fuck." I grin. "The universe is on my side this week."

"It is." he chirps.

I wrap my arms around him and hug him tightly. I know that none of this would have happened without him.

"How have you been sleeping lately?" he asks softly.

"Okay. The nightmares haven't been as bad since Mr. Benny resigned." I explain.

"Do they get significantly worse when there's an incident. Were they worse after that night at the park or after what Mike did?" he questions.

"I've never considered that before but yeah, I think they are." I say surprised.

He looks thoughtful for a while but then he just turns to me smiling.

"You look adorable." he chirps.

I look down at my clothes that aren't anything special or different than what I usually wear then look back at him confused.

"I look the same as I always do." I chuckle.

"No, you don't. You look happy today." he notes.

I sigh and shuffle down before resting my head in his lap.

"You make me happy." I tell him.

He smiles down at me and runs his fingers through my hair.

"Vic, can I ask you something?" I question.

"Ask away, my dear." he smiles.

His charm nearly makes me forget my question.

"Does it frustrate you that we can't have sex? Like does it annoy you?" I ask.

"What?" he chuckles seeming confused. "Why would it annoy me?"

"I don't know. There are other people out there that you can have that relationship with. Why would you stay with me?" I sigh perplexed.
