Beaten & Bruised

Suspicions

As we all got up to leave I felt a jerk to the middle of the arm as Kendall pulled me aside by myself.

"What the hell was that about?" Kendall asked with his teeth clenched together as he tightened his grip around my arm.

"What are you talking about? Babe please let go of me..." I said crying out as he grabbed my other arm and held It just as tight.

"Lucy, what the fuck did Lucy want I know damn well you said something to her, why else would she randomly ask you to the bathroom and not Alexa you told her something didn't you!!" He yelled holding one of my arms so tightly I could feel the intensity of his fingers rubbing onto raw bone inside my arm.

I began to cry just asking him to let go of me before he broke my arm but he never broke his focus off of me.

"Kendall I swear I never said a word to her please babe let me go!" I said finally getting him to relieve the pressure as he pushed me back, when I heard James call my name.

"Trinity? Kendall? Where did you guys go?" I heard him yell coming back to look for us. When he got closer Kendall slammed me up against the wall behind me, roughly and stuck his tongue down my throat. I couldn't push him off because he was trying to play it off as a adventurous random act of passion.

James laughed and turned his head sticking his hands in his pockets. "Uh sorry to interrupt you two love birds, we were just wondering where yall ran off too." Kendall laughed, "well I guess we'll meet up with yall down at the casino in about an hour?" He said inqusitively. I just wiped my mouth from the saliva I had dripping on my lips from Kendall and shook my head.
"Sounds good man!" Kendall replied giving him a fist bump.

James and Lucy:

"James, something feels off about this whole accident and your sister...." Lucy said as she was getting ready in the bathroom. "How so?" I asked her as I smeared shaving cream over my neck and chin. She shook her head and beamed of worry. "James I saw bruises on her back, bad bruises" Lucy muttered while blow drying her hair.

I gave her a side glance while I shaved the left side of my jawline and brushed it off. "Lucy, I'm sure she just got dinged up good in that accident. Trinity said it was bad." She rolled her eyes at me and let out a sigh.
"What?" I said in reply rinsing off my face and patting it dry with a towel.

"James I'm serious, they were bad... and they didn't say anything about her injuring herself from behind they said it was her airbag. I'm telling you something's not right!" Lucy said continuously trying to convince me otherwise. I tried to listen to her so we wouldn't fight. So I let her talk without interrupting.

"Come on James, when have you ever been able not to get ahold of Trinity? Why would she all of a sudden stop seeing you... the more I think about this the more it worries me... the more It just doesn't make sense"

She pleaded and expressed an unhealthy amount of worry. "Look if it will make you feel better I will pull her aside and talk to her tonight alright but I promise you she's okay. Trinity is alot stronger than I am" I said trying to put her mind at ease, she gave me her dark eyes with the most selfless look I had ever seen on her.
"Please.. I just can't get the way she looked at me out of my head.." she added.
"I promise okay, I promise "I said calming her soul.

Kendall picked me up and carried me to the shower with him and kissed me all over. It was like the bruises that took temporary residence on my skin didn't exist because he never payed them any attention.

Before when he would kiss me it would bring a sense of joy even excitement to me now all it did was make me nervous for the next time he would turn into such a hateful person again.

"What's wrong?" Kendall asked as he ran the rough loofah across my tender, swollen and bruised backside. I closed my eyes so tight to conceal the pain I think I made them water. "Nothing... I'm just tired" I said... tired of the abuse, tired of the belittling...... and tired of being afraid to fall asleep next to him at night.

He pulled my back closed to him and I tried but I couldn't control the amount of pain it had caused and he was being gentle and let out a painful groan.

"I'm sorry...." he said pulling away from me quickly finally noticing how badly it was becoming. My body looked like a purple and blue mapped stretched out over a canvas. From my legs to my face I had to let Kendall know how much I loved him and how much it was hurting me to love him...

I started balling as he moved away from me, exhibiting signs of remorse and fear. "Kendall please stop, please stop hurting me. I don't deserve this, where is that sweet guy I fell in love with what did I do babe.... whatever it is please tell me I'll change I promise I will" he moved towards me like he was going to embrace me... I felt like he wanted to hold me and apologize for the things he had done. But he never did, he  just got out of the shower and left me there... I couldn't bring myself to get out I collapsed to the shower floor and gasped with ever tear that left my cheek.
