Rodrick's Pet

2

The next week had gone by and you, Greg, and Rowley ate lunch together almost everyday.  Greg had asked you to come over several times during the week but you made up lame excuses in order to avoid his... lovely, older brother.

"Oh come on" Greg started as all three of you walked home together.
"I don't know" you shrugged.
"Pleaseee" Rowley pleaded. You laughed at his attempts to make you go with them.
"Okay" you gave in. 'Maybe he won't even be home' you thought to yourself.

When you arrived at Greg's house you saw Rodrick's putting his band gear in his van. You could feel your face heat up remembering the events that happened last time you were there.

"Hey there baby hippos" he said coming up to the three of you. You avoided eye contact trying to think of any excuse to leave.
"I-I think my mom wanted me home," you said trying to turn away, but Rodrick just came closer to you.
"Nice try princess" he grinned picking you up like an actual princess.
"Hey wait a sec-" you said squirming in his arms.
"I suggest you stay quiet" he paused  "unless you want me to tell them why you really moved here." You froze,
"Good girl" he smiled as he carried you into his house. You looked back at Greg and Rowley with fearful eyes, they only looked in confusion.

He carried you all the way to his room with out a word. He kicked open the door and slammed it closed. He than loosened his grip threatening to drop you on the floor, you quickly wrapped your arms around his neck and let out a shocked gasp. This made him laugh and gently place you on his bed.

You crawled backwards trying to escape him.
"First off," he said standing in the middle of his room. "How dare you ignore me for a entire week," he scowled at you. If you didn't know any better you say he was hurt by this.
"How much to do you know" you asked ignoring him.
He rolled his eyes and casually sat down on the edge of his bed facing away from you.
"you killed him" he let out a sigh still looking away.
You stayed quiet
You just looked down.
He crawled closer to you now.
"P-please ." You mumbled as he came closer to your face. "Don't tell anyone" you said looking at him now. He climbed closer to you. He was now inches from your face.
"Oh but that wouldn't be any fun than" he breathed onto your neck spending a bolt of electricity down your spine. You felt anger bubble inside of you.
"I'll keep your little secret, but in return you will be my little" he paused "Pet" he buried his head into the crook of your neck.
"Wha-what" you stammered, trying to pull away from this crazy teenager.
He planted his lips against your neck and felt chills through your bones.
"no way" you said through gritted teeth. You tried to push him off but he grabbed your waist.
"You don't want to be known as the murder of the school." He said inches to your face now. "People talk"
You stayed quiet, and looked down.
He grabbed your chin forcing you to look at him "Being my Pet would mean coming to 'serve me' after school. everyday." He smiled backing off the bed.
"And you won't say anything?" you questioned.
He gave a devilish smile and nodded
You paused for along time and thought it over
"Whose going to believe you anyway?" You glared at him still in shock he was black mailing you.
Rodrick smiled and pulled out a stack of articles with pictures of you on them.

Flashbacks spun through your head
You punching a boy in his face, him crying in pain.
People tearing you off him but you couldn't stop hitting him. He lost unconsciousness. Large arms grabbing you and pulling you away. Blaring lights. Loud sirens.

You winced and he just smiled
"Look Familiar?" He smirked eyes wide with hunger
"Your a monster" you croaked, he just smiled. You flipped over on his bed and hid your face in your arms.
" that's not playing fair" he said getting onto the bed again. "Come here." He said stroking your side slowly, you winced at his touch.
You let out a small sob
He reached under you and pulled your back to his chest.
You let out another quiet sob.
"I didn't mean to hurt him" you said shaking slightly. He spun you around and wrapped his arms around you now. You hesitated but slowly reached around his waist. You dug you face deeper into his chest  and he pulled you closer. You inhaled his sent and it calmed you down.
"I won't always be this nice, pet" he whispered close to your ear. Arms still coiled around you.

You stayed like that for a long time. You felt safe and warm, just listening to Rodrick's heart beat.

You pulled away from him slowly looking at him. His thumb brushed over your check.
"How long do I have to be your 'pet' for" you mumbled
"Until I'm bored " he said in a mocking voice
You looked into his eyes and he gazed at you with hunger. He moved closer to you closing the gap between your face, his hands roaming your back. You felt his breath on your lips. You let your eyes flutter closed, just as his lips brushed yours. A loud bang came from outside his door. You snapped back to reality and he groaned,  both you and Rodrick looked over to the door.

"Charge!" You heard a voice shout from outside the door. You smiled and sighed. Rodrick however did not look amused. The two boys swung open the door.
"Release her" You heard Greg shout. While wearing a catchers mask, Rowley hiding behind the door. Rodrick stood up and trotted towards Greg.
"Your dead" he simply said grabbing a drum stick and running after him.
You laughed and rolled over on his bed closing your eyes. You held onto his pillow and wrapped your legs around it. Even though he just left you missed him, he was intoxicating. You soon drifted off to a dreamless sleep.

You awoke suddenly to a bright flash of light.
Rodrick standing over you with a polaroid camera smiling.
"Hey sleepyhead" He said and you rubbed your eyes.
"You better get rid of that" you groaned, sitting up.
"Never" He said pulling out the printed photo, kissing it. "You look beautiful when you sleep" he added smiling.
You blushed and rolled your eyes.
fully awake now you looked up at him "where's Greg"
He smiled not paying attention to your question just  looking at the developing photo. But you ran out the door.

You stopped outside of Greg's room and opened the door and quickly shutting it behind you.
"Y/n!!" Greg yelled standing up
And he wrapped his little arms around you tackling you back to the ground.
"I thought you be dead for sure" he smiled brightly
You laughed and hugged him back closing your eyes.

After a few moments the door opens and a strong arm pulled you up away from Greg.
"Back off" You heard Rodrick say from behind you still holding your arm.
"Let me go" you mumbled
"Don't forget. Pet " he whispered only loud enough for you to hear.

He let go of you and walked back to his room.

"What the heck was that" Greg asked
That's when you knew you had to explain to Greg how you were going to be Rodrick slave until he was bored with you.

He just looked at you his eyes wide.
"What could he have that's so bad" he questioned
"Stuff from my past" you said blankly. He seemed to get that you didn't want to talk about it and backed off the topic.

"I think I will head home" you smiled "I will see you tomorrow Greg"

That night you stayed awake reliving the events that had happened. Rodrick so close to you. But than you If you didn't play Rodrick's little game, he would tell the whole school about your past mistakes. You felt yourself drift off to sleep. A sudden tap on your window startled you.
"Knock Knock, princess"
