Chapter 18- Life is different now

time skip- 1 month

Zara's POV
Life's been actually pretty good. Life is different now. My music really hit it off. I have been working on some other stuff too, hopefully producing it soon. I'm proud of myself for doing it. Maybe I should call my mom and tell her everything.

Mark and I have been in a relationship for a while. I haven't really said anything to anyone besides Josie and Cierra. I dunno why. Besides I actually moved in with Mark. Cierra really wanted to move in with Brad, and I couldn't make her wait any longer.

Me and Billie have talked here and there. I'm okay with that. You know sometimes people need space. But I hope I end up next to her again.

I heard Mark walking up stairs.
"Hey want to go out tonight? There's this cool new restaurant."
I honestly wasn't in the mood to go.
"Uh I don't know. I'm just not in the mood."
"C'mon it'll be fun."
"Mark I really just don't feel like it."
He got closer to me.
"We are going out tonight."
"Mark I said I don't want to." I said picking up my phone.
Suddenly I felt a sting across my cheek.
"I didn't ask this time."
Yeah I deserved that.
"Let's go." He said grabbing my wrist.
Shit that hurt.

I changed and went downstairs to meet Mark.
"You look nice." He said kissing my cheek.
"Thank you." I said trying to ignore the stinging on my face.

We went downtown to a nice new restaurant. It was pretty good. I felt my phone buzz.

Bil
hi. just checking in.
how are you doing?

i'm good.

As I was texting I could feel eyes on me.
I looked up to see Mark glaring at me.
"Youtube business. Sorry." I lied and put my phone down.

We finished dinner and went home to watch T.V.
"Why don't we have some fun tonight."
I was not in the mood for that.
"Mark I really don't feel like it."
He got up and looked at me with evil in his eyes.
"Lets go."
"No I don't want to."
Then I felt a strong pain on my nose and blood dripping into my mouth.
"I wasn't asking. I was telling."
Suddenly, he grabbed my by the ankles and dragged me across the floor.
"Mark. Please. No. I'm sorry." I pleaded
"Shut up you little fucking bitch. All you do is say sorry. Maybe shut your fucking mouth before you speak and we wouldn't have this problem."
He continued to drag me up the stairs and to the bedroom.
I knew what was coming.
"Shut your fucking mouth you hear me."
I didn't say anything.
He threw me on the bed. My head hit off the bed frame. Ouch. Mark then took off my shirt and my bra. He kissed me. Then he made his way down to my pants, and unzipped them. He raped me.

After he finished, he just got up, and left.

I ran to the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror. My nose was black and blue, dry blood everywhere. My eyes were black and blue. A handprint still on my cheek. I deserved this. I'm disgusting. I just broke down. I wanted to die. I pulled out my phone and texted the only person I can trust with anything. Billie.

Billies POV
