I'm Scared Of You.

25

Today is the day our families are meeting. I'll see my Dad and my Mom.
I looked besides me.
Salomon was asleep not facing me.
The room was cold and dark.
This is the only room that's still creepy.
I guess there's a few things I can't change at all.
I sat on the bed. And saw the clock.
[3:58 am]
I lifted the bed sheet and walked to the bathroom.
I opened the door and walked to the sink to get water.
"Love? Margo?" I heard a faint voice.
I opened my eyes widely.
"Margo, where are you?"
He said with a deep voice.
Fuck he woke up.
I nervously thought about what to do.
Just talk before he makes a fuss.
"I-I'm in the bathroom...", I said.
"Oh...", he sighed. "Ah. Bring me water...", he said.
I frowned.
I was nervous over nothing.
I grabbed the glass of water and walked to the bed he was sitting on the bed with his back laying against the wall.
"Here." I said not being able to see much.
He grabbed the glass and drank the water.
"Margo when you go to the bathroom wake me up.".
"I can't wake you up, remember?"
"Then pee before sleeping so you don't have to in the middle of the night."
"Why can't I pee now?"
"Because I will think you left."
I extended my arm searching for his face.
"What are you doing?"  He asked annoyed.
"I wanted to give you a kiss... if you don't mind."
"I mind.", he said giving me the empty glass.
So embarrassing...
I got up and went to the bathroom. 
I Drank water and went to bed.
I layed down and he quickly rolled besides me.
He lifted his head and supported it with his hand.
"Don't leave while I'm asleep."  He said tracking my neck with his cold fingers.
It tickled.
"I'm not." I said. With my eyes closed enjoying it.
He stopped and didn't reply.
"Hon?", I asked.
"Turn around.", he sounded angry.
"Huh?"
"Turn around."
I did and faced the lamp.
He pushed the bed sheets down. Leaveing my back uncovered.
He quickly lifted my shirt.
He trailed my back with his fingers.
"Solomo-?"
"Turn the light on."
I stretched my arm and did so.
He gasped.
"What? What's wrong?", I asked hugely worried.
"When did you get this!?", he asked out loud.
"What???"
He pressed the middle of my back.
It hurted.
Oh.
"When... when you threw the book at me."
"Oh... I did this?"
"Hey it doesn't hurt. Besides I hit you too. We're even.", I said turning my head to face him still laying down.
"I don't feel guilty.  What are you saying?", he replied.
I looked at him in disbelief. 
"If I was the one doing it. It's fine.", he replied. "You're mine."  He planted a kiss on the bruise. "I can do anything."
He covered me with the bed sheet.
"Rest well." He said leaning over me turning the light off.

"Madora, are you coming to the dinner?"
"I don't know I don't like the Vernons."
That's a relief.
Madora mustn't meet Benedicta.
"But I think I might go, Evangeline will get bored."
"No, there's gonna be other kids. Come on, it's a family meeting, don't worry I'll take care of her."
She looked at me.
"I'm gonna go, I just can't leave my daughter. "
"You're not leaving her! I'm going with her!"
"Okay, but I will go just in case."  She said brushing her hair.
If I keep pushing she'll suspect. 
"Alright. It's very fancy by the way."
"Yes. I'll get you a suit, baby.", she said walking to the wardrobe.
I rolled my eyes.
"Thank you baby!" I said with a fake smile.
My phone rang and I knew the devil was calling. 
"Yes"
["Did my brother invited you to today's dinner?"]
"Yes", I said leaving the room.
["Good. I look forward to seeing you today, Nicholas. "]
I frowned at her voice saying my name.  Benedicta just drives me insane. 
"I have to tell you..."
I looked around. 
"I'm not going alone, obviously."
["I know. "], she laughed. ["I'll enjoy this."]
"Huh? What do you mean?"
["Goodbye... Sir."]
I felt a wave of worry and anxiety crash me.
"Baby, black or blue?", Madora suddenly yelled from the room.
I jolted surprised.
Ugh. Don't yell.
I walked to the room and told her irritated.  "Blue. Is. Fine.", I smiled hardly. 
"Okay well this one is okay right?", she showed me a blue suit.
"Yeah, that'll do."
Gosh I'm screwed.

"I think a long dress is more fitting today..."  I said looking at the dresses.
Solomon was sitting with his legs crossed glaring at me.
"Uhm, I want a dress that matches my husband suit."
"Correct. I will get you some dresses for you to fit them on."
It took less than an hour for Solomon to chose his suit, and he's angry because he doesn't wants to wait.
I walked over to him.
"You can leave if you feel tired."
"Everyone is starting at me."
"There's no one here.", I said looking around the VIP area.
"Well you are staring at me!"
"Oh, Salomon!"
"Just hurry up Margo and don't look at me."
This dude!
"I'll just choose any dress so we can leave"
"No, take your time. I want you to look beautiful.", he said looking away.
Make up your mind!!
