Hating The Memory |Completed (2)

11| Australia

I have been in Australia all of six hours and all my family has done is ask me about the girls, I guess that three years doesn't mean anything for a small town. 

this small town feeds on drama and doesn't let anything go until every last drop of humanity is drained from a person, I guess that is why I had to leave. 

"Hey, I am going to go for a walk," I announced as I stood up and walk out of the room. 

I was around midnight, I assumed everyone would be at home sleeping or at a party in the apartments on the other side of the town, I was horribly mistaken when I saw two people walking towards me, it was too dark for me to be able to see who it was and when I did see, it was too late.

"Well if it isn't the town slut," I heard a familiar voice say, the other person was a female, my ex-best friend and her new boyfriend

"Leah, Ace," my voice cracked into a whimper when I spoke his name, "what are you doing here?" 

"what do you mean? we live here, what are you doing here?" Leah asked

I ignored her and kept walking past her, I didn't get too far when Aces hand grabbed my wrist and spun into his chest. The contact was too familiar and I broke down. 

"aw, look she can't handle a little touch," Leah and Ace laughed,

"you think it is funny to force yourself on someone, ruin their life? Do you think it is funny to force teen parenting onto someone?" I blurted

"what are you talking about?" Ace asked as if he had no idea what I meant,

"I mean tat night at the party, you raped me and then told everyone that I had slept with some college guy and got knocked up when in reality you too planned the whole thing,"

"oh yeah, I forgot about that," Ace's evil laughed 

"I just have one question? why did you plan for this?"

"don't you get it, your life was perfect and you took it all for granted," Leah snarked

"what do you mean?"

"I mean, you had all the guys after you, you had a perfect family, a perfect life, and you didn't even realize it. You always joked about how your life was terrible, that you would never get a boyfriend and parents barley talked to you but you had it all, I didn't my boyfriend broke up with me because he thought he had a chance with you, my parents wished they had a daughter like you," she took a break to breath, "no, wait, let me rephrase that, my parents wished you were their daughter, not me. I had nothing, and you had everything,"

"what do you mean all the guys were after me? Not a single guy in our school liked me, and the thing about my parents, I knew they loved me, It was teenage angst, every teenager goes through a stage like that, I guess yours came later in life because the last time I checked your parents love you more than anyone, they praise you and put you on a pedestal, you are just too much of a selfish, spoiled brat to see that," I yelled

"That is not true, ask anyone in our grade, every single guy wanted in your pants, you were just a priss and didn't see that," 

She was wrong, no one liked me in high school, not even my best friend apparently,

"so what if every guy did like me, you think that gives you the right to get someone to rape me?" 

before she could answer I slide my hand into my pocket and hit record on my phone, 

"I didn't get him to rape you, that was his idea, I went along with it because you deserved it," she confessed,

"what did I do to you, ace?" I asked,

"You didn't notice me," 

"I didn't notice you? I had a crush on you for 10 years, you basically had me. You fucked it up when you raped me,"

"What do you mean I had you?" he asks when a look of confusion crossed his face,

"what does it matter let's go," Leah interrupted.

"No, I want to hear this," Ace ignored her.

"I was in love with you, I was in love with you since kindergarten. When you asked me on a date I was the happiest person on the planet, you had me, I was yours," I explained, "why did you ask me on a date if you didn't already know this?"

"Leah told me you hated me, that you told her you would never date a person like me,"

"And you believed her?" I asked, for some reason, I felt bad for him,

"You never looked or even talked to me, of course, I did," he cried, 

"even if I didn't like you, you still raped me, you still ruined my life and for what? revenge?"

"I am so sorry," he tried to apologize,

"don't, you can live with the pain of knowing that you broke me because you believed one person's words. If you would've talked to me you would've known how much I loved you. How can someone so popular and sought after be so insecure?"

"Stop!" he yelled causing me to jump,

"what? you don't like being belittled?" I laugh, "well, too bad, when you tricked me, ripped my clothes off and then forced yourself onto me, you belittled me,"

"I said stop!" he raised his fist to me and swung, I closed my eyes and awaited the sharp sting from his fist but it never came,

"Touch her again and you will regret it," I opened my eyes to reveal Percy, 

 Ace was on the ground cupping his nose with one hand and shielding the rest of his face with the other. 

"Let's go Em," Percy said as he grabbed my hand and led us back to my grandmother's house.

when we got out front I pulled my hand out of his and stormed into the house,

"Em? what's wrong?"
