Chapter 11 - Lilith

My eyes drop back down the soapy water as I feel him near me. He bends down so we can be at eye level before brushing his tongue over his lip.

"You talked to Rome today." he says and I nod.

He laughs and shakes his head before looking back up at me.

"Still ignoring me?" he asks and I look back up at him.

I hated being rude, but I feel like this is justified. He shoots his hand out before wrapping it around my neck and gently squeezing it.

"Answer me, Lilith." he says.

"I'm not ignoring you." I say and he squeezes my throat enough to make me squint my eyes.

"You didn't talk to me at either meal. You tried moving my hand away, why are you lying?" he asks.

"Okay, so I was ignoring you. You hurt me." I say.

"I know, but you have to realize that wasn't the only reason I wanted to hook up with you. You interest me like no other woman, Lilith." he says as he lets go of my throat.

I look back down at the water and he dips his fingers in it.

"I didn't take the money, anyways. It went into your bank account." he says.

"I don't want your money, Riot. I wanted you to care for me like I did you. You told me right after I gave you something so important to me." I say, my eyes tearing up.

"I know, Lilith. I do care for you, I just don't know how to show it. Your the first girl i've been like this with." he says before he takes the side of my face in his palm.

I look down and begin playing with the bubbles when I hear him getting undressed. I feel him get in and stay looking down until I looked up to see his chest covered in bubbles.

He leans back and looks at me before sticking his hand out. I gently place mine in his and he pulls me so my back touches his chest.

He pulls my hair out of the bun and runs his fingers through it. He peppers my neck with kisses and I smile.

"Say you forgive me." he says, and I laugh.

"I forgive you." I say and he starts sucking the skin on my neck, no doubt leaving hickeys.

After he's done, he runs his fingers over the R necklace I was wearing and nods. He mutters a 'good girl' before leaning back.

I link my fingers with his and close my eyes. I feel him reach out of the bath and open my eyes to see him pull his phone out of the pocket of the jeans he was wearing.

He begins typing and eventually gets a phone call. I zone him out and begin to examine our fingers. There were scratches and scars on his while mine were clear.

I then examine the tattoos on his arms and his knees that stick out of the water. He eventually hands up and sighs before pulling me closer to him.

He kisses the side of my face before getting out and wrapping a towel around his legs. He comes back with new clothes, and I'm confused as to where he got them.

"I had some of my clothes put in here after you started spending the night with me." he says and I nod.

I watch the bubbles as he gets dressed before he turns back to me.

"I have to go do something. Come up when you're done." he says before walking out of the bathroom and out of my room.

I drain the bathtub and put on black pajama shorts and a white tank top. I do my night time routine before tidying up the bathroom and shutting the door. I walk out into the hallway and into the elevator, clicking Riots floor.

The doors eventually open and I knock on his door before he opens it, typing on his phone. I go to his bed and lay down, before looking up at realizing he's still standing by the door.

"Riot?" I say and he nods, making his way over to me.

He sits down facing the other way, still on his phone. I wait for him to be done, and he eventually gets off his phone and turns towards me.

He opens the drawer of his nightstand to pull out a brown thing and a lighter. I sit up, pulling my knees to my chest to watch him. He lights the end of it before putting it into his mouth and inhaling it, making it come back out of his nose.

I tilt my head and he looks up at me before placing it back down.

"It's just weed." he says as he sits down and picks it up before hitting it again.

I watch him as he smokes it, and he looks at me before sticking it out at me.

"I don't know what to do." I say.

"It's okay, just inhale it. I'll hold it so it doesn't burn you." he says and I nod.

He brings it to my face and I copy what he was doing before I feel it enter my lungs. He laughs as I cough and clear my throat.

"It burns." I say and he nods.

"Just relax, let it kick in." he says and I nod.

About 10 minutes go by and I don't feel any different.

"I feel fine." I say and he holds it out so I can hit it again.

I try to put my finger on it, but he pulls it back.

"Don't burn yourself, baby." he says and I nod.

I inhale it and breathe the cloud out before I cough again. I look over at Riot and he looks normal, just more relaxed. He looks back up before finishing the blunt, and putting into a little box in his night stand.

He suddenly starts moving very slowly and I look up at him. Everything started moving slow. I look down at my hands and move them, they move so slow.

"Riot, why's everything so slow?" I ask and he laughs before laying down on the bed.

I blink my eyes and lay down next to him, trying to match my breath with his.

"Stop that, you're holding your breath." he says and I laugh before sitting up.

He holds his hand out and I take it before he leads me out to his patio. We sit on the chairs out there and watch the sky as I start to get more relaxed.

"Why'd you smoke today?" he asked and I shrugged.

"I wanted to do it for you." I say and he nods.

I place my head on his lap and trace my nose with his finger. I close my eyes and lean into him. I feel myself slipping into darkness and relax my body, allowing me to go to sleep.
