Bunny

Chapter 17 - Lilith

As I enter my room, I tuck my hair behind my ear, and start walking towards my bathroom. I get undressed before I take off my bracelet and necklace, and step in the shower.

I let the water wet my skin before I apply body scrub on my body and shampoo in my hair. I then rinse the shampoo out and apply leave in the conditioner before turning off the water and stepping out.

I wrap a towel around my body before I slide on red underwear and red cotton shorts. I put on a white tank top that stops right under my boobs and looked up in the mirror. I pick up my toothbrush and brush my teeth, making sure I get my tongue.

I brush out my long blonde hair before bending over and tying it up in a messy bun. I pull the side out so they frame my face and apply coconut chapstick. I had to go up to Riots room since Ava was asleep now.

I walk over to my bed and pull the blanket off before sliding on white Nike socks that reach my ankle, before opening my door and waiting for the elevator to come. One of the guards, Andre, walks in with me when it comes. He scoffs as I press Riots floor and I look over at him.

He looks back before rolling his eyes and facing forward. I don't know why he's upset, Riot was the one who wanted me to come. The doors open revealing the only other door on the floor.

I get out and knock on it before Riot opens the door, with his phone in his hands. I walk over to the couch and place the blanket down, flattening it out when it comes up. I lay down and pull the extra blanket over my body as I look over at Riot.

He stands in the middle of the room, typing on his phone. He stops typing before walking over to his nightstand to plug his phone in. From his wet hair, I could tell he had already showered.

I look over at his bed and I can tell he was previously laying on it. He sits down at the edge of the bed before laying down and rolling over.

I relax my body and close my eyes as I feel someone moving towards me. I open my eyes to see Riot squatting down in front of me. He pulls the hair falling in my face back before he runs his fingers through my hair. I close my eyes as he does this, only opening them when I feel him stop.

He runs his tongue over his lips before looking me in my eyes.

"What your father said today was true. I will use you for what I want, but I don't know exactly what I want yet. I don't know what you want either, tell me." he says and I pick my head up a little.

"I just wanted you to like me the way I liked you. I trusted you, Riot, and I hoped you would do the same for me. Yet, everytime something goes wrong it's somehow my fault. No one talks to me, everyone ignores me. I don't know what I did wrong." I say and he shakes his head.

"Everything I accused you of has been proven to be wrong or it was someone else. You can't blame me for being cautious, Lilith. The only new people here are you, Ava, and Anastasia. Anastasia didn't even know about the contract, and Avas was too young. You were the only logical person I could think of, you can't blame me for that." he says and I drop my eyes.

"I miss you, Riot." I say and he nods his head.

"I know. I just need to figure shit out." he says before he walks back over to his bed and lays down.

I lay my head back down on the couch before I close my eyes. I keep them closed for about 30 minutes before I pick my head up. I get up, dropping the blanket around me as I walk over to Riots bed. His eyes are shut, but he opens them when I stop walking and stand by the edge of his bed.

I look at him and he nods before I pull up the blanket and get on the bed. I turn to face him and he wraps his arm around my waist, pulling me to him. He picks his head up off of the pillow and places it on the side of my neck. I wrap my arms around his neck and feel his breath as they touch my shoulder.
