Afflicted

Chapter 8:

 " I am too." She smiles then bites her lip.

" What?"

" I finally admitted it. It feels good."

" I know. So when did you figure all of this out."

" I been knew, I just never wanted to accept it but then i couldn't ignore the way you make me feel. The way you touch me, and look at me and the way you make my heart beat."

 " So how do I make you feel." He smiles.

" I think I showed you that two weeks ago." She smiled and giggled.

" Red I have one more question."

" Yes?"

" What did you think about when you touched yourself?"

" You. Why?"

" Because I'm going to make all
those fantasies come true." She bites her lip again.  " So what about him?"

" I thought I did but no. I don't know what that was. I want you though."

" When did you realize this?"

" The day you came back into my life. When we kissed at the club."

" Why didn't you say

anything?"

" We'll talk about this later.

I'm leaving tonight, so please come and get me around 9 o' clock."

" Okay babe, I'll be here."

He kisses me deeply and then leaves. I didn't want to let him go. I pout as I

watch him walk away. He has such a cool walk. The way he sagged a little, his

swagger and don't get me started on that voice. I have to fight the urge to

just runaway with him. I must leave Max for good.

     7:15 Max is

home. He comes home drunk.

" Red?"

" Yeah?"

" Come and give daddy a

kiss."

" No."

" No?"

" Yes I said no."

He walks up to me and grab me by my

hair.

" I know you didnt just tell me

no. When I tell you to do something, you do it!" He bangs my head into the

wall.

" FUCK YOU! I'M LEAVING!"

I knee him in the balls and run for

the door but he trips me up. I land face first. He grabs my ankles and drags

me.

" BITCH YOU TRYING TO LEAVE ME!

HUH?! OVER MY FUCKING DEAD BODY!" He throws me in the basement. Lights

out.

      Jump

up and realize that Blue is on his way. I grab my head. Shit it's banging but I

can't worry about that right now I need to get out of here. I feel for a

weapon. It's a bat. I make a whole bunch of noise so it sounds like I've escaped.

I hear footsteps. I rush to the top quietly. The footsteps get closer and

closer. The doorknob turns and then it opens. With all my might I swing at him.

I hear a thud. He hit the floor very hard. I jump over him and run upstairs to

go find my phone to tell him to come and get me. It's nowhere to be found. I'm

wasting time. I just say forget it. I turn around. It's Max.

" Going somewhere?"

I try and run for the bat but he

grabs my hair and then throws me on the floor. I hit my head hard. The ringing

came back and my vision is blurry again.

" Oh you want to leave? We'll

let me give you a reminder of what you'll be missing."

He takes off his pants and ribs off

my pants and underwear and slams into me.

" No...No..." I say

disorentiently. I feel like I'm going to pass out. Next thing you know he puts

his arm around my neck. I reach for the bat. I almost got it. Yes! I hit him

upside the head repeatedly. He finally collapses. I force myself to run out of

the house. The last thing I remember is a horn hunking and bright white lights

then everything goes black.
