Rejection Then Love

Mistake chapter 3

Maria's POV

After waking up from my nap looking at the time it read 10:00 pm. Groaning feeling very sore after the beating I took from my boyfriend Kevin I got up from my bed looking at my phone the very light screen making me frown from the light I see 30 missed calls from Kevin and 10 text messages . I read the text messages which consist of sorrys but the one that stuck out to me the most was that he said he was having a hard time dealing with his mother not there didn't know how to handle it so he took all his anger out on me.

I wanted to punch the shit out of him because he beat me to take his anger away but I felt bad because his mother left him when he was 15 . I decided to check on my mom and go out for a walk. Grabbing a sweater and my ugg boots walking down the hall opening my moms door to find her asleep going to her side whispering " I love you mommy " yes I still call my mother mommy but hey I love her what can I say .

Closing her door silently grabbing my key walking down the stairs walking out the door locking it behind me. Walking in the cold looking up at the stars ,feeling a tear slide down my cheek wiping it as careful as I can to not hurt my face anymore then it is hurting. Thinking to myself I get Kevin is upset with his mom but beating me is no reason to do so. Walking down the street I bump into a hard chest .

Groaning and rubbing my butt because I fell on it. Standing up and about to apologize it's Eddie I bumped into. My eyes had fear in them seeing he sees my face and bruised I quickly say " I'm sorry and please don't say you saw me like this " my eyes feeling watery trying to not let the tears escape. I try to walk away but I felt him grab my wrist I turn around looking him in the eye I hear him ask " who did this to you " I tell him don't worry it and it doesn't concern you trying walk away but he just tugged at my wrist.

I broke down crying but I'm scared because the idea of someone knowing what Kevin did to me could cause him to just do more. After what felt like forever crying in eddies arms I carefully dry my face from tears and tell him " thank you for being a shoulder to cry on " he says " your welcome but tell me who did this to you " with pleading eyes.

I wanted to tell him I felt like I could trust him but then we saw a car and I immediately new it was Kevin's I knew he saw me because he rolled his window down and yelled my name . Eddie asked " who is that " with a confused and questioning look with a scared look I stuttered " t-thats k-kevin" I knew I should have just kept my mouth closed because Eddie asked " was he the one that hurt you " I tried to say no but my fear got the best of me all I could do was run and run fast back to my house .

I ran as fast as my legs could allow me I was about to unlock the door when a hand had pulled my hair I screamed because it hurt so much I then heard " trying to tell on me to that white boy maria huh " I tried to answer but then a kick came to stomach I cried out in pain I knew it was Kevin because he yelled "ANSWER ME " he then kicked me again all I could do was hold my stomach and cry in pain I tried my hardest to answer and tell him " no Kevin I promise I wasn't going to tell I promise ".

He then looked at me with so much anger I couldn't help but shrink away and look at him in fear I looked away to only have him grab my face roughly and kissed me. I felt him go away and saw another figure I looked into blue pools and realized it was Eddie tried to stand up. But all I could do was stare at him and Kevin fighting. I got up trying to ignore the pain I tried to break up the fight I hear Eddie telling me to go away and let him deal with it .

But I couldn't do that and I heard Kevin say listen to the white boy but I soon saw the pocket knife in Kevin's hand put myself in front of Eddie as fast as I could to protect him. Soon and very soon and quickly and I protected him the quicker I felt the stab in my stomach I took to protect him I could let him get hurt on something he had no part in let alone try and save me.

Right then and there I knew Kevin was a mistake.
