Ocean Eyes - B.E.

Chapter 19- You better run.

Zara's POV
Mark has gotten worse. Sometimes I wish he would just kill me. It would be better than this.

I haven't produced anymore songs because I don't even want to work with him anymore.

And my moms okay. She's distant again. Add that to list of my life going down hill.

Tonight we have some music party to go to. I'm not excited.

"You ready?" I heard Mark say.
"Yeah coming."
I looked in the mirror one more time to make sure my bruises were covered.
I walked downstairs. He looked at me.
"Looking good Z."
"Mm"
He grabbed my wrist.
"Pull any shit tonight and you won't see the light of day."
"I know."

We headed off to the party. There was tons of artist there. Like X, Khalid, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, J Cole, and so many more. I felt pretty cool being there. I walked around talking to people.

Then I saw it.

The blue hair.

Billie.

I walked over and tapped her shoulder. She turned around.
"Oh Z! What's up!"
She seemed really upbeat and happy.
"Nothing. I just saw your hair. Kinda hard to miss."
She laughed.
"You're so funny."
I noticed the cup in her hand. Definitely drinking. She isn't the type tho. Weird.
"I cant really hear that well in here, wanna go outside?" I asked basically yelling over the music.
"Sure!" she giggled

We walked outside to this beautiful backyard. There was a garden. We sat on the edge of a water fountain.

"I have a secret."
"And what's that?" I asked her
"I love you. I don't love Q. I love you." she giggled
Oh my fuck. She's acting so innocent right now.
"I will always love you too Billie." I said sadly.
She turned to the water and splashed me.
"Hey! That's not very nice."
"Whoops!"
I couldn't help but laugh.
I just wanted to fucking kiss her lips so bad. But I cant.
"I hate being alone without you."
"But you have Q."
"Yeah, but Q is no Zara."
Woah.
We talked for a few minutes and she stood up.
"I'm gonna go get something else to drink. Don't miss me!"
"I'll try not to."
She danced away back into the party. Damn she's such a cutie. I miss her.

I don't know what Im feeling right now. I love Billie. She made a mistake. Mark, he knows what he's doing. What he's doing isn't a mistake.

I needed to write.

I pulled out my phone. I began to write.

She told me that she loved me by the water fountain
She told me that she loved me and she didn't love him
And that was really lovely 'cause it was innocent

I looked up from my phone, I could see into the party. Billie was drinking again. I checked the time...10:15 pm.

But now she's got a cup with something else in it
It's getting kind of blurry at a quarter past ten

I looked up again, watching for Mark. My heart sunk. Not because of Mark but because of Billie. Q was touching her. They were dancing.

And he was in a hurry to be touching her skin
She's feeling kind of dirty when she's dancing with him

I kept watching. I felt jealousy. She forgot what she told me.

Forgetting what she told me by the water fountain

He grabbed her hips, pulled her in, kissed her, whispered to her. I saw her glance over. Then they left.

Now he's grabbing her hips, and pulling her in
Kissing her lips, and whispering in her ear
And she knows that she shouldn't listen
And that she should be with me by the water fountain

I couldn't write anymore. I didn't want to cry. Mark was coming anyways.

"What are you doing?" He said looking at my phone.
"Nothing just taking a break."
"I know you were out here with her."
"Nothing happened Mark chill."
"What did you just say?"
I stood up.
"I said nothing happened Mark chill."
He got close to me, grabbed my wrist and whispered in my ear.
"Maybe it's time we leave."
Shit.

He said nothing to me in the car on the way home. I knew what was coming.

We got inside.

"WHY ARE YOU STILL FUCKING TALKING TO HER."
"BECAUSE I CAN."
I felt a sting on my face.
"DID I GIVE YOU PERMISSION?"
"DIDNT THINK I WOULD HAVE TO ASK IF I COULD BE FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE."
I felt my body hit the floor. Mark stood over me.
"You guys were never just friends. You think Im stupid? Huh bitch?"
Fuck this. I don't care anymore.
"Youre right. I love her. I still fucking love her. More than I'll ever fucking love you, because I don't."
I felt a foot kick my side.
"What the fuck did you just say." He pushes his foot on my chest. I felt like I couldn't breathe.
"I don't love you."
Then he just kept kicking me. Everywhere. I thought he was gonna beat me to death. I felt tears stream down my face. Then anger built up inside me. I pulled him down to the ground. It gave me a second to start to crawl away, heading towards the door. I heard him following me. I felt his hand on my ankle. He flipped my over onto my back.
"You little bitch. You think you can just out run me. Fucking do it. DO IT. WATCH WHATS GONNA HAPPEN."
He let go of my ankle. I stood up. Pain all over my body.
"WE ARE OVER." I screamed at him.
"YOU KNOW WHAT. GO. BUT YOUR LITTLE BILLIE BETTER WATCH OUT."
"Do anything to her I SWEAR TO GOD."
"You can't out run me. Not now not ever."
I saw the evil in his eyes. Like a killer. That's when I ran.
"You better run. YOU BETTER RUN."
And that's what I did. I ran away from that evil fucking monster of a boyfriend I had.

I ran for what felt like ages. I ended up at a familiar home.

Billies.
