• My Echo • A Mikey Fusco Love Story ❤ [14]

"We dance round in a ring and suppose, while the secret sits in the middle and knows"

**

The clocks loud ticks ringed in Rachel's ears as she stared at the timeless machine, watching every minute pass by as she tapped her pencil against the empty lined paper in front of her. Talk of a party on Wednesday filled the room, and Rachel made a face. Who would have a party in the middle of the week? She sighed and continued to effortlessly tap her pencil, and just as the bell rang someone slipped her an invitation. She went to throw it away as she exited the room, but thought twice about it and slipped it into her bag and headed out to her car.

"Will I be seeing you at the party on Wednesday?" Chase's voice came out of nowhere as Rachel opened her car door.

"I don't know," she shrugged, starting to get in the car but Chase pulled her back and slammed her against the car, pressing his body up against hers. Rachel's breathing quickened and a sudden lump formed in the back of her throat.

"I know you want me, Rachel," Chase's raspy voice whispered on her lips as his hand traveled up Rachel's shirt. She wanted to scream and run, but every bone in her body had frozen in sheer fear, "You can stop pretending like you don't have dreams about me," his hands traveled to the edge of her bra, and softly traced her cleavage as the lump in her throat tightened, his voice got lower and he moved closer to her, "You've dreamt of me in you, haven't you? You want me," he smirked, his hand traveling back down and out of her shirt and he slowly walked away. A single tear slid down Rachel's plump cheek. She slammed the door shut and locked it and sunk down in the car seat, breaking down into silent tears.

Mikey stared out his window into Rachel's room, waiting for her to arrive home. She was 30 minutes late, and he was becoming impatient. Before he had the chance to over react and call the cops and report her missing, Rachel stumbled into her bedroom, her white skinny jeans hugging her fragile legs as she slammed her door shut, sliding down against it, her pink v-neck riding up slowly as she began to take deep breathes. Mikey watched Rachel as she threw her bag to the side, and as he looked closer he could see mascara running down her cheeks, and the next thing he saw was Rachel leaning over her knees and crying her eyes out. Mikey ran over to Rachel's house and tried to open her door, but she quickly pushed it back with her back.

"NO!" She shrieked hysterically, her nails digging into her palms "Leave me alone! Just leave me alone!" She screamed, her stomach knotting up.

"Rachel," Mikey said calmly, keeping his hand on the doorknob, "Let me in."

"N... no," she choked over her own words, sliding her trembling hand up and locking the door slowly, "You can't hurt me," she whispered, beginning to rock herself back and forth like a scared child, "I won't let you hurt me, you can't touch me. I won't let you I won't let it happen again," she whispered to herself, biting down on her knees, blood smearing all over her white pants from where her finger nails had dug into her palms.

"Rachel please..." Mikey spoke softly from the other side, his stomach flipping when he realized she wasn't going to let him in, "Rachel, tell me what happened. Now," but he was left with nothing but silence.

Rachel hid in the corner of her closet, the memories of four years ago flooding through her mind like a hurricane. It had almost happened again, she knew if they weren't in a parking lot, he would've done more to her. She struggled to catch her breath as the tears flowed violently, and she drowned out the screaming and pounding that was coming from outside her bedroom door. She trembled throughout the night, and at one point the noises from outside her bedroom door stopped. She stared at the light from Mikey's room pouring into hers through her closet; he had stayed up all night staring into the darkness of her still bedroom.
