Hostage.

Chapter Seven.

I got no sleep that night and wanted to start my day off making sure I scrubbed the last bit of Rocco away.
I heard the click of the bathroom door as Nate walked in, completely ignoring the fact I am naked, he sat on the closed toilet seat waving a large fat head joint in my face.

It felt good knowing I could trust him and he wouldn't take advantage of me, he never tried to do anything.

He sparked it up before handing it to me, he reached for the sponge in the bath, quickly snatching his hand out before turning to look at me like I was crazy. He pulled the plug on the bath before refilling it with hot water.
"Face the wall" He said softly rolling up his sleeves, he grabbed the sponge off the side of the tub and put some honey scented liquid soap on it. He gently began to rub it across my back and shoulders as I smoked my sorrows away, he then proceeded to rinse it off before grabbing me a towel, he truly was a gentleman. I stood looking at myself in the mirror as I covered my body with the towel Nate had provided before he left the room. Ever since meeting Rocco I began to hate myself more and more.

I quickly turned away from the mirror and heading into my room to find my bed sheets changed, clothes out for me and a whole load of food.
This boy really knows how spoil someone. He sat on the bed looking at me as he grabbed my shorts and top handing them to me as he took the towel from my other hand. He gave me a soft smile, never once looking at my body.
He walked out of the room leaving the door open as I sat on the bed to get dressed.

After five minutes of staring into space Nate caught my attention when he walked in. He laid his side at the end of the bed beginning to eat the food he had prepped for us.

"So I haven't known you long and this is my judgement so far" I looked at him as he looked me dead in the eyes. "You have shit taste in men" I chuckled at his comment as he shook his head.
"You are not wrong" I looked at him again but this time really looked at him, his curly dark long hair in a messy man bun, large tanned arms covered in tattoos, dark brown eyes, amazingly cute dimples. Why didn't I see just how perfect he is?
Why couldn't I just have Nate?

"Thank you" I smiled at everything he had done, "for everything" I looked over at him to see him giving me a sweet smile.
"Anytime" He said before taking a bite into a chicken strip. We sat in silence for a bit, both going through our phones.

"Nate" I said quietly finally breaking the silence. He looked up from his phone with a raised eyebrow. "Why have you never, you know-" I said shrugging, he automatically locked his phone putting it down.
"Touched you?" He asked aggressively making me put my head down in shame.
"I'm sorry, it's just Matt and Rocco-"
"Let me stop you there Elizabeth" I was shocked he said my full name "I don't touch a woman till she gives me full permission" He said with a deadly look in his eyes.
"So your a true gentleman?" I asked, feeling a little smile grow.
"No" He scoffed. "It's the only way to keep me knowing my limits" He said in a low growl, I could see the darkness grow in his eyes as a thought obviously crossed his mind. I let it go and carried on scrolling on my phone as he began to roll another joint.

Days had passed and it had just been Nate and I still, we had grown closer than ever and everything seemed to be going well in our house hold, Nate had just started to decorate, his also decided his staying, for good.
I haven't heard from Rocco, I only ever see him walking down the street, sometimes with Sophie, sometimes without.
Nates also changed every lock in the house and secured every window, his decided his done with Roccos shit.

"Yo, Elle!" I ran quickly jumped off the bed and rushed to his room I saw him standing there looking really smart considering his usual attire is ripped jeans and designer T-shirt's.
"Where are you going?" I asked catching a glimpse of myself in the mirror only to realise I was just in panties and a large top, which I quickly began to pull down.
"I've got a date" He smiled making my smile fade. Oh.
"Oh, well, you look lovely!" I said faking a smile, "I was just doing something, so I guess I'll see you later?" He nodded at me through the reflection of the mirror as he checked himself out.

I headed back into my room falling face first onto the bed. I can't keep living like this, I can't keep waiting around for someone to love me I need to go out and find that person. I waited for Nate to leave before I changed into a mini black dress and quickly straightened my hair before fixing my face the best I could, I rushed out of the door to the nearest night club, even if I didn't find love at least I might find some relief. As I stood in line I quickly popped some Xanax I found in my jacket pocket, just to keep my mood chill and my emotions stable, just for one night. Once I was inside I was having the time of my life.

It didn't take long for me to meet some new female friends and even attract some male attention. I noticed the club split off into two sections, upstairs, V.I.P Area and downstairs, the normal bunch. As I danced with a few of the girls I had recently met I could feel eyes burning on me, I turned around in every direction but I couldn't find anyone, until I looked up and saw Rocco standing at the balcony looking over the dance floor whilst Sophie sat back talking to some other important people.

I'm out of here.
I stopped dancing and decided to head out straight away, go find somewhere else. I didn't want to see Rocco, so I headed to the closest bar, luckily for me was a five minute walk, but once again, it wasn't what I hoped it would be, I walked in to see a classy club like bar with two people sitting at a table, Nate and a lady. Great. I turned and walked away, I think it's best I just go home. I made it half way down the street before I felt someone pull at my arm, I gasped loudly as a I turned to see who was responsible, Rocco.
"You followed me?" I yelled, his eyes dark and glassy, his smirk crooked, he was clearly drunk.
"Why did you lie?" He asked, confusion written all over his face. "Because you want her" I smiled weakly before feeling his lips crash against mine.
"I want you" He breathed out during our kiss, I tried to push him away but it was harder than it seemed, once I finally did I slapped him.
"Leave me alone!" I yelled.
Anger flashed over his face as he stepped towards me again, so I hit him again, this time he managed to grab hold of me, I remember trying to fight him off before I took a blow to the head and then everything went black.
