Chapter 10

POV: Jace

As I looked up I felt all the colour drain from my face.

"Get away!" I yelled as tears begun welling in my eyes.

Standing in front of me smirking was none other than jack. He had a malicious look in his eyes.

I wanted to scream bloody murder but in seconds he had his hand around my throat and the other over my mouth, stopping me from screaming.

"Hello there, baby boy." He said masochistically. His voice still as gruff as before.

I gasped for air and tried as much as I can to let his grip on my neck go. I clawed at his hand but he still didn't let go.

The twisted smile he had on his face was gone in seconds, removing all signs of playfulness.

I only saw malice and revenge in his eyes.

"You and your little friend are going to pay for what he did to me at the party." He growled, his warm breath fanning against my ear.

I stood in his grip shivering and scared to death. I hadn't thought about the incident that happened more than 2 weeks ago.

I just found out that jack was meant to be in college but because he always skipped school he had to redo a year in highschool.

Even though he had repeated he still doesn't take school seriously, he never attends classes, even if he does he doesn't listen. He does drugs and had been arrested on multiple occasions and for multiple reasons.

He kicked me in the gut and I landed on the floor clutching my stomach and gasping for air, I took in as much air as I was deprived from breathing.

He straddled me and pinned my arms above my head. Our position similar to that of the night he almost raped me.

My lip was trembling as I tried to struggle out of his grip, my struggling only made him more angry as he crashed his lips roughly against mine and capturing my bottom lip between his teeth.

He bit my bottom lip to the extent it drew blood. I could taste the metallicity of the blood as he forcefully kissed me.

He then started kissing down my jaw then to my neck biting and sucking the bruises that are sure to be there.

I shut my eyes tightly as I was still whimpering and shivering as his hands were travelling up my shirt.

He suddenly stopped and I peeled my eyes opened slowly to see that he was smirking evilly at me.

"This is just the beginning." He spat before crashing his lips once more on mine before standing up and leaving.

I laid still on the floor drowning in my tears as I could still feel his rough chapped lips against my skin.

I stood slowly from the floor as I wiped my tears away. A sudden wave of pain hit me as I fell down on my knees and groaned in pain.

I stood up again, this time carefully and slowly walked over to where my bag was discarded. I opened it and brought out a hoodie that I had mindlessly thrown in.

I wore it and pulled the hood up before walking out of the classroom. I tried as much as possible to hold in my tears and suppress the pain.

As soon as I got into the toilet, made sure nobody was in and locked the doors I collapsed on the floor and began crying, remembering his rugged touch against my body.

I felt sick, disgusted and irritated all at the same time. I stood up slowly to meet a horrible sight.

My eyes were bloodshot and swollen, red blotches around my face, my lips were bruised and swollen red.

The sight made me burst into more tears. "I-Is th-that me.." I asked myself in the mirror as I stretched my hand forward to touch my reflection in the mirror.

I caught sight of a dark red mark on my neck. I slowly pulled of the hoodie and I was met with a more horrible sight.

Red, black and purple bruises were scattered around my neck and a bright red handprint around my neck.

I pulled up my shirt a little to reveal a very large purple bruise. A very large ugly one.

It was a sight no one would want to lay their eyes. I looked horrifically terrible and it doesn't help that the tears would not stop streaming down my cheeks.

Images of the party incident flashed through my eyes and I shut it closed and screamed as the memory started haunting me.

I could feel the ghost of his hands still roaming my body as I curled up into a ball to try to shield myself.

I couldn't get the picture of him hovering over me out of my head, it was like the memory was etched into my mind.

My sobs racked through my entire body as it bounced around the corners of the toilet.

I tried fighting off the memories and barely succeeded. I laid still on the floor trying to calm myself down as my breaths came in deep gasps for air.

Finally when I came down a little I stood up and rinsed my face to try to hide the evidence of me crying.

I used a paper towel to clean my face and when I was satisfied with the way I looked I put my hood on and left the toilet.

But before I left I concluded that jack is my worst nightmare.

POV: Kaiden.

I sat in the cafeteria looking around and watching the door, waiting for Jace to walk inside.

I've been thinking about him a lot.

And about the kiss.

As much as I would love not to see him right now my heart yearns for him.

His cute little smile, the way his cheeks scrunch up when he laughs, the way his ears and cheeks turn red when he blushes, his habit of always sticking things inside his ear when it itches him.

All the things that I had mentioned aren't the things I normally want to see in a person but seeing those things in him makes him special in my eyes.

"...Kaiden..... Earth to Kaiden!" Caleb yelled in my ear and I jerked backwards and rub ear.

"What the fuck man?!" I hissed.

"Sorry man. You fucking looked like you were lost Narnia. What's up with you?" Caleb asked concerningly.

"Nothing's wrong, I was just wondering why Jace hadn't come to the cafeteria yet." I mumbled looking down at my untouched food.

The guys gave themselves a look I didn't understand before Alan spoke up. "Maybe he's busy doing work with a teacher or any of that nerdy stuff."

Maybe he is actually busy with something.
