Watching from the Sidelines

Chapter 7

"You don't want to work in that club do you?" Jason said sitting up in the bed.

Raven didn't answer, she just stared at the scorpion tattoo on his neck to avoid eye contact. She closed her eyes, and continued crying. At this point, she was ready to go to the club and dance in front of a bunch of men. It would be way better than getting raped every night.

"I'm gonna tell Trina not to make you work in the club", he said kissing her neck.

"I don't want a bunch of niggahs looking at my baby anyway", he said pulling her over to face him.

"Give me a kiss", he said holding her face.

"No", she said trying to move his hands.

He punched her in her mouth, and stood up.

"I told you to quit playing with me! You got the wrong motherfucker!" he yelled.

She grabbed her phone off of the floor, and ran out of the room and into the bath room. She closed the door and locked it. She grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her body. She wiped the blood from her face, and called JG.

"Hello? Hello?"

"I - I", was all she could get out before she broke down crying.

"I'm on my way", he said before hanging up.

A few minutes later she heard the front door slam.

A few minutes later she heard the door slam again, before JG called her name.

"Ray where you at?" he asked going into her room. He heard her crying and knocked on the bathroom door.

"Ray open the door!" he yelled twisting the knob.

She stood up, and slowly walked to the door, before opening it.

"What the-" he said looking at her face, "He did this?" he asked holding her head up to get a better look at her mouth, which was still bleeding.

"Yo, sit down", he said sitting her down on the toilet.

He grabbed a face towel, wet it, and wiped the blood from her mouth.

"Where he at?" he asked.

"I don't know, I guess he left", she said still crying, "I wouldn't have called, but he started acting crazy. I shouldn't have called. Trina's gone kill me".

"I thought you told me he ain't ever touch you", JG said getting more upset.

"I didn't want Trina to put me out or nothing. She don't believe me".

"Mane fuck Trina".

"I don't have anywhere to go, I have to stay here".

"No you don't. Come stay with me. My brother won't care, and Brittany won't say shit".

"I can't".

"You can, and you will. Come on, let's get your shit", he said pulling her up, and walking her to her room.

"I need to put on some clothes", she said pushing him out of the room.

She grabbed her under wear out of her night stand, and put on a pair before putting the rest of them in a duffle bag. She put on some jeans, and a t-shirt before opening the door for JG to come in. She continued putting her clothes in the duffle bag, and when she finished he grabbed it off of the bed. She put some more of her things in this huge bag she got from Aeropostale. She grabbed her backpack, her phone, and charger, and walked out of the house.

They put her things in his car, and pulled out of the parking lot.

"I need to tell Trina I'm leaving", she said.

"Fuck her, if she cared, she wouldn't have that niggah living up in there", he said loudly.

"Just take me to the club so I can tell her I'm leaving", she replied.

He sighed loudly, but drove in the direction of the club.

When they made it to the club where Trina worked, she got out of the car and ran inside. He followed her in. There was a man standing inside of the door asking for ID.

"My sister Trina works here, I need to tell her something", she said hoping he would let her go downstairs.

"You can go down there, but he can't", he said referring to JG.

"I'll be right back", she said before going downstairs where the stippers were getting prepared to go onstage.

"Who are you?" a short woman asked.

"Umm, My name is Raven, and I'm looking for my sister Trina", she said trying not to look at the naked woman standing in front of her.

"Oh, that prissy bitch in the bathroom, she act like she cant get dressed out here like the rest of us", she said walking off.

Raven walked in the back of the crowded room, and found Trina coming out of the restroom.

"Ray what the hell you doing here?" she asked grabbing Raven's arm and pulling her to the side, "And what the hell happened to your face?"

"I can't take it anymore", Raven said crying, "I told you about Jason, and you wouldn't listen to me. You treat me just like mama treated you, and that ain't fair".

"What? Jason didn't do this", she said holding up Raven's face, "He's a good guy, he wouldn't hurt you Ray".

"Well he did Trina!" Raven yelled causing some of the women to look at her.

"I'll take care of him when I get home Ray", Trina said, "He won't do it again".

"I won't be there", she said pushing Trina, "I can't believe you! I'm moving in with JG and his brother", she said walking off.

"Ray!" Trina called after her, but Raven never turned around.

Trina grabbed her phone out of her locker and called Jason.

"What?" he asked.

"What the hell did you do to my sister? You put your hands on her?"

"Hell no! She had some little niggah in her room, and I heard them arguing. I ain't know he put his hands on her".

"You're a fucking lie! She just came up here to the club. I knew I should have believed her the first time. She with Tony's little brother, so you better watch your back". She said hanging up the phone.
