Face Down

Part 2

Derricks P.O.V

Where is she? I waited for a while in my room waiting for her to call. She was supposed to call me when it was time and she didn't have anything else to do. I waited a while more. Finally I lost my patience and decided to call her. The phone began to ring that ring that meant that their phone was ringing. Finally that message lady began talking and I shut off my phone. I finally decided to just walk over to her house. It was nearing December so it was pretty much freezing outside. I went to her door and knocked on it. Cassie's mom answered the door.

"Oh hello, Derrick! I'm sorry but Cassie wanted me to send her and her boyfriend to the movies! I'm picking them up soon." She said as if she knew what I was going to say. She definitely did.

"Oh um..okay can I stay here for a little while? It's freezing out their." I asked kindly.

"Sure! I'll make you some hot coco as well!" She said even nicer.

I smiled Cassie's moms hot coco was delicious it was probably the best in the neighborhood! Possibly the world.

I sat down on their large green fur sofa and started looking around. I had always come over to play when we were in elementary school. We Played with her Giant Godzilla shaped monkey named Gina all the time and we still do.It was almost as tall as me and I'm pretty tall. I was served the hot coco and I drank happily, bathing in the memory's of my childhood.

I finally decided I had to go and said my thank you's to Cassie's mom. It felt a bit warmer now that I had hot coco in my stomach so it was perfectly heated. I finally came home and plopped on my bed. I felt a bit upset that we didn't get to watch the movie but at least she got to watch one. I smiled and went to bed. As Long as she's happy, I'm okay.

Cassie's P.O.V

I can't believe it. I just couldn't. A tear rolled down my cheek as I remembered what happened Raymond wanted us to see a movie together I agreed happily and my mom drove us to the movies. Raymond wanted to watch a movie full of action so I agreed with him he smiled at me his seductive smile. As we watched it I slowly started remembering that Derrick and I were supposed to be watching a movie together! I decide to forget about it he would be okay with It right? Its my new boyfriend we are talking about. He would understand.

In through the middle of the movie Raymond touched me. I blushed we were the only people in the seating row and their was only two other people in the movies but I thought it was embarrassing .

"Stop it please.. This is a movie and we are only in 8th grade." I said it quietly so no one could her us.

"Shut up bitch. You know you like it." He started unbuttoning my pants. Still rubbing me.

"Stop!" I said a bit louder and tried moving his hand away from my body. I was a bit angry how dare he call me that!

He finally had enough he grabbed my hands and took out of the theater. We were outside and he was breathing hard. He pulled me forcefully to the back of the building.

"Don't you dare reject me slut." He said as he reached to touch me again.

"No stop it!" I pushed away again.

Then a pain struck me across the face I could barely stand as my eyes began filling with salty water. Raymond had just hit me.

"Call your mom. Your going home." He said emotionless.

I nodded and grabbed my phone. Still crying.

"Quit your crying. Oh and also don't you dare tell your mom about this or else."

I sniffed and tried to suck it up. A tear ran down the cheek he slapped me on. It started burning like hell. He had hit me pretty hard.

My mom answered the phone when I called her.

"Hello?" I said as casually as possible.

"Are you ready to get picked up?"

"Yeah, Raymond and I are ready. The movie was great! "

"Okay I will pick you up as soon as I can."

Raymond and I sat on a bench I was afraid. Would he hit me again? I wasn't sure.

"Cassie..." He said to me.

I turned my head slowly. I was afraid he would give me another blow to the other face.

"Yes Raymo-" before I could finish he had kissed me.

I kissed him back. I wasn't sure why. After we finished he whispered softly into my ears.

"I love you Cassie." He said sweetly.

I blushed and hugged him. I guessed that was an apology.

He hugged me back tighter.

We,held our hands together until my mom came to pick us up I covered my face so that my mom couldn't see the damage. My mom dropped Raymond of at his house it was huge. His family must have been rich! He even had a fountain in his front yard! It was too dark to see anymore details than that. Raymond kissed me secretly so my mom wouldn't see.

"Good bye sweet heart" he whispered. "See you tomorrow.

"Good bye" I kissed him and he left.

"We drove home and I ran to my room I felt happy but a tear ran down my cheek then I broke down crying my eyes out. He hurt me, why did I still love him?

I stared down at my phone. Should I call Derrick? No way he would just get Raymond mad and hurt Derrick too I don't want anybody to hurt Derrick he was my best friend! I laid down on my comfy warm bed, and cried myself to sleep.
