bruised - cth

ch 10

"young, an-" valerie sang, horribly, might i add, and got interrupted by a slamming of the door.

she panicked, blowing out the candles and shutting off some fucking loud lana del rey. quickly she drained the water and locked the bathroom door, tears blurring her vision.

"calm, valerie," she said to herself as she grabbed a pair of white sweatpants with black strings and her name stitched in cursive, along with some cropped tank top that showed her belly button. "it's probably just ashton and he could be frustrated with what happened. you're okay."

it wasn't a panic attack or anything, she just never had someone come into her house so furiously. it worried her, she was only seventeen, no muscle, 5'2, almost a hundred pounds, and a wimp. but, you could probably guess she's a wimp. yet, she can be tough, not like most girls can, but tough.

"valerie.." she heard a whine, coming from a male voice, but she wasn't for sure who it was since it was muffled.

"okay, who are you?" she opened the bathroom door, slowly, peeking her head out enough so maybe she could get a glance. val prayed in her mind that whoever it was wouldn't find her.

"michael."

"you're fucking kidding.." she mumbled to herself and then sighed. "you were right, by the way."

"i know. calum fucks his way to the bottom with girls pretty easily. i don't know why he tries to find someone. usually he just fucks and leaves." he said, getting closed to the bathroom, and she wasn't worried. it was clear it was him, his voice was louder than the others, it wasn't as deep, it was kind of high compared to calums voice or lukes, basically, his voice was sweeter and you could just listen to it and it'd brighten your mood (bein deep oh shIT i love michael so much he is my happiness).

"that doesn't help. i want to decide if he is worth forgiving. he snapped at me and decided to have his first moody man period." the girl groaned, stepping out of the bathroom and walking up to michael, slowly, wrapping her arms around his torso and hugging him.

she was short compared to him, he's like, a foot taller than her and his torso was what she got up to.

"cheer up, okay?" he asked and hugged her just as tight as she did him, arms around her waist, but he could barely reach, and gave her the heads up that he was going to pick her up.

"im trying." she mumbled, her arms reaching for his neck as he lightly picked her up. it was easy. practically weightless to him.

"go-" he began, but valerie pulled from resting her head on his shoulder to looking at him. "how, exactly, did you get in here?" she questioned, biting on her lower lip.

"ash gave me a key, since he trusts me, and i locked the door after i got in here. i know you don't want those dicks in here."

she laughed, placing her nose on his, smiling lightly. "you're funny, but it's true. you're nicer than them." she said and kissed his nose softly.
