Chapter 24: True Colors
___I got up from the bed, knowing Jordan would be here soon to pick me up. I picked up my phone from the nightstand and slipped on my shoes that were beside the bed. I walked out of the bedroom into the kitchen. Tank looked at me while I walked to exit the apartment. "Bye..." he said softly. I looked back at him and smiled slightly, "Bye, " I waved and closed the apartment door behind me.
My footsteps echoed throughout the halls while I walked down the stairs to the exit. Each turn I took made me grow in fear. I reached the door to the apartment building and placed my hand on the handle. I sighed, not ready to explain everything to Slater. I opened the doors then I noticed Jordan sitting in the driver's side of the car with the window rolled down. He looked at me then looked away. The car was the black armored car that was used to save us at the mall.
I sighed again as I walked to the passenger seat of the car. Once I had gotten in I ignored Jordan, keeping my eye contact away from his. He pulled the care out onto the road and started driving back home.
After a few minutes, I laid my head against the seat in stress. "I fucked up, " I said to Jordan with a guilty voice. He glanced at me in confusion. "What is it?" He questioned me. "I..." I started but then stopped, I bit my lip, trying to figure out where to begin. "I kissed Tank..." I murmured under my breath. "I didn't hear you?" He said with a concerned look, wondering what I was so stressed about. "I just- um" I sighed slightly, "I didn't say thank you to Tank and Scorpion for taking care of me," I said with a shameful tone.
I didn't know why I covered up what I said but I was too embarrassed. "Oh... Well, it's not that big of a deal. They probably don't mind, " Jordan said with a slightly confused look. I could tell he was confused about why I was so stressed about something so stupid when truly it wasn't stupid at all. "Yeah..." I huffed, looking away out the window. My eyes watched the passing cars and buildings as we drove.
My mind circled around Slater and the truth.
Soon we arrived at the Mansion. I sat in the car for a few seconds. Jordan looked at me concerned. "You good?" He questioned me, staring at my blank face. "Yeah..." I murmured. He shrugged his shoulders and closed his car door behind him once he had gotten out. I watched him walk away into the house. I stared at the door with fear. I shivered at the thought of seeing Slater's face. I couldn't keep what happened a secret, shit he probably even knows.
I got out of the car slowly then walked towards the entrance. Each of my steps trembled. When I reached the door I stood there. I dragged up my hand slowly to the door handle and placed it on the handle with regret. I opened the door slowly, it creaked quietly. Then my eyes landed on Slater who sat at the bottom of the staircase. He looked up at me with a glare. My heart instantly dropped, my mind was empty. All that I thought at that moment was that he knows.
I closed the door behind me and stood there faced to him. I gulped.
"Hi-"
"Don't you dare fucking hi me," Slaters voice boomed across the room. It hit me and shattered me into a million pieces. Fear surrounded my body. He got up from where he sat and walked to me quickly. He grabbed my wrist and growled at me. He started dragging me upstairs to my room. "Slater- stop your hurting me!" I shrieked as his grip tightened even more onto me. He ignored me and continued stomping to my room.I stopped my foot on the ground and pulled back. "Slater!" I cried as he pulled me forward aggressively. I tripped forward and fell down to the floor. He crouched down to my level and gritted his teeth in anger. "Get the fuck up now, " he demanded. I didn't look back at him, I was too terrified. I got up slowly, my head turned from him. He grabbed my wrist again then pulled me into my room.
He threw me onto my bed and then slammed the door behind him. I quickly sat up on the edge of the bed to face him. He stood there with his arms crossed, shaking his head. "Why did you do it?" He said to me, his voice was filled with hurt. "I am so-" He cut me off, "Did you think I wouldn't find out?" He glared at me. "Look at me when I'm speaking to you." His voice raised with fiery anger. I looked up at him with teary eyes.
"Did you enjoy it?" He yelled at me. "Did you enjoy the kiss or did you enjoy cheating on me?" Slater's eyes stared at me hard, he never looked away. "Neither-"
"Then why the fuck did you do it?"I closed my eyes, knowing I had to be real with him. I looked back up at him. "I enjoyed the kiss..." I murmured. "Say it louder," He said with disgust in his voice. "I enjoyed the kiss!" I yelled closing my eyes as tears streamed down my cheek. "That's right you did. What else did you guys do? Fuck? Did you enjoy him? Did you enjoy his fucking dick inside of you?" Slater yelled at me, every word filled with anger.
"No..." I said, looking up to him with a terrified face. We stared at each other for a minute in silence. "I don't know what to do with you, " he said with a laugh. "I love you so much that it hurts. I don't hate you, I could never hate you. I just hate what you did to me..." Slater continued on.
"I'm sorry Slater. I shouldn't have ever done that. I'm terrible for that. I'm so sorry." I said, looking down in shame. "Did anything else happen?"
I looked at him then thought about Scorpion. What Scorpion had tried to get out of me. I didn't want to tell him, I was embarrassed. But I had to trust Slater, he deserved to know everything. "Scorpion tried..." I paused, letting tears form again then run down my face. "He wanted to use my body in exchange for him not saying anything to you. I said no and tried to push him off but he kept kissing me." I whimpered, covering my face.
I could tell Slater was pissed. "Fuck!" He yelled, banging his fist against the wall. "That creep!" He yelled again. I shrieked at the loud bang and from him yelling. He looked at me then down to the floor. He clenched his fists tightly. "Stay here, " he said deeply. Then he stormed out of the room. I knew he was going to the apartment, and I trembled at the thought of what he was going to do.
