The Blizzard Competition
"Hey babe." Eric greeted as I walked into the Storm Valley lounge. I groaned and started walking away. "Where do you think you're going?" He grabbed my unbroken wrist and pulled me back.
"Leave me the hell alone, Eric." I growled. I pulled my wrist back and just stood there. I don't know why I didn't move, but it was as if I was too scared to move.
"What's wrong, babe?" He put his hands on my waist but I forced them off.
"You can't call me babe. Especially since we aren't dating anymore."
"About that, I think we should get back together."
I scoffed. "The day I get back together with you is the day hell freezes over." I pushed past him but he grabbed my shoulders and flung me back. Since he was stronger than me, I fell right on my back. I groaned in pain and slowly stood up.
"Now are you sure you want to leave, Allyson?" He asked. His voice was deep and husky and I'm not going to lie, it was a bit scary.
"Eric, why can't you just leave me alone?" I asked quietly. I was actually afraid for my life in this moment.
"Because I've been angry lately and you weren't around. But now you are." When I looked into his eyes, they were dark.
"You really think you can do something to me while they are people around?"
"What people?"
I looked around the lounge to find it empty. That's weird. It's never been empty before.
"E-Eric, please, just leave me alone." I begged. I hate how Eric does this to me.
"Sorry sweetheart, not gonna happen." I gulped as he walked closer to me. Before I could process what was going on, I felt a hand go across my cheek. I felt the tears well up in my eyes but I didn't let them fall.
For the next two hours, or what felt like two hours, I was punched, kicked, and beaten. Bruises would form in the next couple of hours and there would be no way to hide it from everyone.
I was currently laying on floor when Eric decided to kick me one more time. He kicked my stomach which knocked the wind out of me.
Eric bent down so he was sitting on his knees. "I really needed to do that." He whispered in my ear. He stood up and walked out of the lounge, leaving me alone.
"Someone…please…help…me." I gasped. My eyes closed and I was surrounded by darkness.
I shot up from my bed and realized that I had a nightmare. I glanced down at Trish who was still sleeping. Thank god she's a deep sleeper. I carefully got out of bed and walked out of the room. I quietly made my way downstairs and entered the kitchen.
