Chapter 38
I stared at her for I don’t know how long. My friend, my freaking best friend...Hell my only friend had just broken up with the man that slapped tape on my mouth and told me to shut up and ride. She went out with the guy that yanked me across a counter and planted one right on my lips. I blushed at that and sank back into the couch...This is not good, Avery didn’t even seem like she knew what went on. I mean I know I didn’t tell her but still...
She gave me a look after putting her drink down. “You alright Luna? Feeling sick? Too much ice cream?” I shook my head and licked my lips, then she said, “then what’s up?”
I grabbed my cover and put it over my shoulders so she wouldn’t see me holding myself. “Um, nothing let’s just keep talking about your boyfriend.” When she shrugged I continued, “so what was so bad about him, did he cheat or something?”
She snorted so very unattractive. “Ha, you could say that.” She rolled her eyes.
I took a drink of my chocolate milk after asking. “What’s up with that?”
She shook her head. “You wouldn’t believe me if I told you...Never mind you actually would considering what business your boyfriend was in. Well before we broke up I think I was looking through his phone for something and I saw all these pictures of women with weird names like Ginger and Faye. At first I thought they were like strippers or something but then I realized that strippers don’t stand on corners and hop into creepy cars. Which is what he had pictures of.” She only glance at me and my surprised face. “So I confronted him about it and he told me straight up that he was a pimp. Even though I saw what I saw I didn’t believe him, then he started showing me all of his prostitutes, and he even named all of them like it was some fucking accomplishment.” She shuddered.
My chocolate milk flew out of my mouth at that moment, I scrambled to stand up and rush to the sink. My stomach was churning and I felt actually sick at that. After heaving a few times I realized that Avery was at my back the whole time, holding my hair and rubbing my back. After I got done with all the dramatics I rushed for a tooth and scrubbed my mouth like there was no tomorrow. “Oh...my God, that’s not what Cole told me after everything that happened...Geez that must have been why he told me to stay away from him.” I realized that I said all of that outloud. “I’m so sorry Avery.”
With the face she gave me I knew she didn’t want my apologies at that moment. “What do you mean after what happened?” Venom laced her words and I almost took a step back. “Did he do something to you? I swear I’ll kill that prick myself.” I could see her hand clenching the counter so tight her knuckles turned white.
