DOMINICK © [ENGLISH EDITION]

Chapter five

«This is your fault...»

«You don't want to see your daddy angry do you?»

"AHH !!" HELP ME!!" I screamed desperately. I hit my head over and over again, that voice ... I needed to shut up.

"Hello? Is there anyone at home...? Is something wrong?" Asked the person at the door.

"Help me... Please..." I whispered brokenly and my speech became difficult. Everything looked dark. When I tried to breathe, my chest and throat ached. My chest swelled up and down fast.

"I'm going in..." I heard him say. I couldn't answer, I felt like the water was starting to drown me.

My hair was combed by the water, I was crestfallen, expelling spoiled air from my mouth. I was having more and more difficulty seeing, breathing, and even moving.

"Is there someone in the bathroom?" Asked the person, who was clear since she was a girl.

"Y..sss ..." I tried to answer, "ah ..." I complained in pain.

The girl suddenly opened the curtain and screamed when she saw me:

"Oh, for God's sake!" She helped me sit up, "Do... Dominick?" She screamed my name in shock and amazement, I couldn't identify her voice. I know she was in trouble, but her hands were tender. She reached her hand under my armpit, forcing me to stand up. I closed my eyes, dizzy, as the girl guided me, me with my arm on the back of her neck.

"But what happened?" She asked in amazement without understanding anything. "Sit down, come on..." she helped me to sit on the couch.

I started to breathe normally, or so I was trying and I opened my eyes to see him: "Emily?" I asked, amazed, still stupid. She put a smile on her mouth, «so cute», she nodded. "Thank you very much." I said, still a mess. "And how did you get here?" I asked, playing innocent.

"It's just... she greeted my neighbor's... I live next door." She pointed in the direction of the side.

"Excellent." I laughed, still stunned. "You might be thinking I'm insane..." I laughed.

"Don't." She answered right away, "maybe you're just a boy with problems..." she answered simply, she approached me, "I wish we were friends, so we could talk... Okay?"

My breathing steadied. I looked at him and said: "Those who have been screwed with me have said that I am a monster, a beast ... I would not want to expose you to my friendship."

"You're alone ... and if you talk about this I'll tell everyone that you're a fagot whore ..."

"Do not. I've been involved with many..." she insisted again, forming a smile on her face.

"How much hype for so little band." I replied smiling.

"Don't fuck around." He nudges me slightly, letting out a laugh, "I'm serious..." she laughed and I smiled back.

«I blew air out.»

"Yes... Thank you..." our gazes were fixed.

"So can we be friends?" She insisted. She knew it was a bad idea, but he couldn't refuse me.

I rolled my eyes: "Okay, okay, you win..." I replied, "then don't tell me I didn't warn you."
