RESISTANCE (Completed)

•Selena•

Selena tied Aislyn to the leg of the bed, ensuring she wouldn't tell anyone what she was up to. She didn't bother tieing Roman, since he couldn't get up on his own. He layed still on his stomach. "Don't try anything". Selena spit on Aislyns face, and walked downstairs. She wanted to wait till the club was closed to take Roman with her out of Gotham. They had to wait another hour before 6am.

Aislyn struggled with the ties. Selena did know how to tie her knots. Her hands were tired and soon enough, she gave out. She looked at Roman. If she hadn't hurt him, she wouldn't be in this situation. Roman woke up with a bruised jaw, and bloody lip. He groaned. As he opened his eyes he saw Aislyn tied to the bed. Quickly, he attempted to get up but fell straight back down. "Roman!" She whispered. "Don't make noise." He was confused but knew Selena was behind it. "You really got quite the punch.." he chuckled, moving his jaw around. Aislyn looked down, still convinced Roman kissed Selena first.

"Why'd you attempt to beat me to death in the first place?" She still looked down. Roman crawled towards her on his knees. "Ain't talking, huh? What if I un-tie you? Will you talk then?" She nodded and Roman grabbed a kitchen knife from the table, cutting the rope off. The rope burnt Aislyns hands when she was trying to break free. He looked up at her. A tear rolled down her cheek. "What's wrong?" He asked, wiping the tear away. "I thought- I thought I was good enough Roman. All these other amazing girls like Selena and you chose me. But in the end, I was never good enough. I just put you in danger." Her crys became progressively louder. "I heard you kiss Selena." She spit it out. One more word and she fell apart. Roman was in shock. How did she know this? He knew he didn't want to kiss Selena. "Aislyn, I didn't kiss Selena.." Aislyn looked up. "Wh- what?" She mumbled. "She forced herself on me. I wouldnt  want anyone but you. When she did kiss me, I pulled her off." Aislyn was surprised that Roman didn't make the first move, since they were exes. "Oh Roman!" She yelled. "This is my fault!" Once again, the tears rolled down her face. He grabbed her and pulled her close in a hug. "I'll always want you." Roman said caressing her hair. He took off her mask and put it on the floor. "see?" He said, "I want to see your face." She giggled. "Roman, you wear a mask too." The remark was a good one, making them both laugh in eachother's arms.

"Selena will be back. She wants me to join her. I have to go with her, Aislyn." He stood up steadily, making sure his legs were working again. The lower half of his body had been destroyed in the last hour. "No no we can stay, you will stay, won't you?" She stood up in front of him. "It isn't a choice. Selena is dangerous. She'll kill us." The music still blasted and the clock read 5:29 am. That's 31 minutes till closing time. Roman had to think fast. "I have to go." Roman said, holding Aislyns hand. "I will be back. I promise." She leaned forward, hugging him tight. "You- you can't! I won't let her take you!" Roman pulled her out of the hug and spun her around, tying the left over rope on her hands again. His grip was firm now. "Roman!" She screamed. He pushed her down, tying her to the bed again. "I'm sorry." He said. "My priority is to always keep you safe. That's what I'm doing." "Roman!" She screamed. "you can't leave me! I need you!" His eyes teared up.
The sound of her screams made him want to unt-tie her...but, it was for the best. He got up and brushed himself off.

"I love you."

He said smiling.

"I always will."

Then, he walked down the stairs into the club.
