Hey, I just thought I'll drop in and give you all a new chapter. I've been at my moms for the week, and already written this so instead of waiting till Friday, since I'll be out of town on Friday I decided to give a new update early.
Warning........the following chapter can be upsetting to some, but rest assure everything will be ok
Chapter 20
“So, how was your lunch” Sonya buttoned up her uniform, and tied her apron around her waist? They were just about to start their shift. Adjusting her antenna, Bel closed her locker and spun around.
“It was ok” she shrugged her shoulders, and checked her reflection in the mirror.
“Just ok......what did he have to say for himself...... like why he didn’t pick up a phone and call.....or better yet, why he was being an ass” she asked her as they pushed thru the break room door. Bel pulled out her order pad, and searched it for a clean sheet, while trying to avoid Sonya’s questioning stare. She knew Sonya didn’t like Kevin, in fact, she was pretty sure that she hated him even more then Xan did, but she never showed it, and for that she was grateful to have a supportive friend like her.
“We just ate and talked” she moved around her to grab some menus. She really didn’t want to get into her lunch date with Kevin at the moment. Truth was, she was more confused about things between them now, then she was before they had, had lunch. They had went to a small Chinese restaurant next door to her Nana Amy’s shop, it was were they had their first date. She had thought that once she had time to calm down, she could sit and talk to him sensibly, but thinks didn’t go quite as she had hoped.
******
“You could have at least called” she whispered, sitting up straight when the waiter brought their food.
“I was upset ok.....I’m sorry” he sighed in frustration. They had been doing nothing but arguing since she arrived at his car in the school parking lot.
“That’s exactly why you should have called.......should have told me what was wrong, but no....instead you shunned me for a week, and then come back thinking everything can go back to the way they were....you hurt me” she pushed her plate aside, her appetite suddenly gone.
“What do you want me to say.....I’ve already said I was sorry.....what more do you want from me” he bit out. His voice rising at her stubbornness. The couple next to them, turned and gave them a annoyed look. Wanting to stir things back to a calmer level, he placed his hand over hers, and rubbed his thumb over her knuckles.
“Look....lets just calm down. I invited you to lunch, so that we could spent some time together. I’ve missed you, and I just wanted to spent this time with you. I know we have a lot to talk about, but right now, can’t we talk about something else” he didn’t wait for her reply, but instead, picked up his fork and started eating, talking about his trip between bites.
They had drove back to the school in silence, and he had walked her to her next period, were he took her by surprise and kissed her. She had gasped in shock, and he took it as and invitation, and pushed his tongue into her mouth. He pulled back, and licked his lips.
“I’ll talk to you later babe” he kissed her on the cheek, and ran off down the hall. Leaving a still shocked Bel in his haste.
*******
Hence lies her confusion. They were nowhere near reconciliation in her book, but he was acting like the past week never happened, and that they were back to the way things were. She had sat in her History class, replying the event in her head, mainly the kiss. She had been shocked, but more repulsed then anything. Previously, when they would kiss, she welcomed him as his tongue caressed hers, and his lips massaged her own But this time had been different. She had wanted to throw up, and couldn't resist the urge to wipe the aftertaste that his saliva left in her mouth. She didn't know what to do now. She knew that she cared about Kevin, but was he someone she wanted to spend the rest of her life with. All her life, she had watched her parents. The way they seemed to complete each other....like their heart and body was one. She had once asked her Aunt Isabel about their connection, and she had told her that a love like the one her parents had was hard to find, but they found each other, and their souls finally found their mates. And that was what she wanted......a soulmate. Someone that complete her, and made every cell in her body come to live. Subconsciously, she found her eyes move to the pick up window, and focused on Ricky, who was handing Amber her order. Feeling eyes on him, Ricky looked up, and gasped when he found her staring at him. He had to remind himself to breath, but gave her a kind smile. Bel blushed, and quickly averted her eyes, only to have them lock with those of her best friend, who was waiting impatiently for her to give her the low down.
"Look, it's just that we really didn't have time to talk everything out" she moved past her, and went to greet the customers that had just walked in. Sonya grabbed her order pad, and went waited until she was finished.
"Surely you're not going to stay with him" she pressed. After watching her best friend cry for a week over that loser, Sonya just wanted her to be rid of him, but she could tell by the guilty expression on her face, that she wasn't quite there yet.
"You are aren't you.....you're thinking of staying with that prick" her eyes were wide in disbelief. Feeling that she was being ganged up on, Bel turned sharply.
"Sonya please" she bit out harshly "I really don't feel like getting into this with you right now" she lashed out angrily.
"Fine!" Sonya retorted, her voice anything but calm.
"Girls"....Jeff stood next to them "...is everything ok" he asked them. Like everyone else in the restaurant, he had watched as the two girls conversation became heated, and they were now lashing out at each other.
"Yes Papa"
"Yes Mr. P"
"Well then girls, I suggest that you get a move on it. The customers can't feed themselves" he walked over to the cash register to ring up a customer, who had been waiting patiently for someone to cash him out, leaving the two girls staring silently at each other.
"Order up Bel" Ricky yelled, completely oblivious to the situation brewing. She turned on her heels to retrieve her order, but was suddenly stopped by Sonya's hand gripping her arm.
"Just remember one thing" her voice filled with spite "....when he hurts you again, don't come crying to me....and you best believe that he will hurt you again" she dropped her arm harshly, and went to wait her tables. She didn't see how Bel could be so stupid. The guy was a bastard, plain and simple. He had treated her like dirt, and for what, because he couldn't get into her pants. She didn't need someone like that, but if she wasn't going to listen, she was done with the whole thing. Bel stared after her. She knew Sonya was right, but all the same, this was her life, and if she wanted to give Kevin another chance, then she would. Who's to say she was anyway, she didn't know what she wanted. She sighed in frustration, and went and picked up her order.
They spent the rest of the shift in complete silence. They avoided each other at all cost. Usually if one didn't have any customers, the other would help her out. Refilling drinks or busing the tables. But that wasn't the case today. Instead, they opt to keeping to themselves, and tried not to let their foul moods carry into their work. Seven o'clock rolled around, and the two happily removed their antennas, and made their way to the break room. Changing in silence, neither girl knew what to say. They were both so stubborn, no one wanted to be the first to cave. Sonya slammed her locker shut, and walked out. Bel knocked her head against her locker and growled.
"You okay" Ricky asked her when he found her banging her head against her locker. Pulling the clip out of her hair, she ran her fingers thru it to detangle it, before she turned to him.
"Yeah" she tried to sound convincing, but years of watching her, made him see the sadness in her eyes. Nervously, he stepped forward, and lightly brushed her arm.
"Wanna talk about it" Bel shivered at his touch, which he noticed, and quickly removed his hand, and stuffed them in his pocket. Bel could practically hear her insides as they screamed for his touch. Shaking her head, to clear it, she met his gaze.
"No....not really.....look, Ricky I'm really not up for studying right now" she saw his face fall, and him swallow hard.
"It's ok.....we can get together when you're up to it" he pulled off his apron, and stuffed it and his locker. He couldn't help the pain in his chest at not having a chance to spend time with her. He shrugged on his jacket, and slung his bag over his shoulder "I'll see you at school" his eyes never meeting hers, but instead, focused on the floor, as he walked past her to the back door.
"Can we go somewhere" he suddenly hear her asked. Surprised, he turned to her.
"Huh?" the shock apparent in his voice, and she smiled as she walked over to him.
"I mean....I didn't say that I was ready to go home, I just don't want to study.....too many things on my mind. I just want to go somewhere...away from here" she rocked from side to side nervously. She didn't know what she was doing, but she knew that she wasn't ready to go home, and she damn sure didn't want to be in the presence of Sonya at the moment.
"You want to go somewhere.....with me" he asked in disbelief.
"Yeah......I mean if you want to" she added uncertainly. It didn't take him but a second to eagerly nod his head.
"Su-sure....lets go"
"Great" she ran and scooped up her bag "I'm ready" he turned around and pulled opened the door, when he stopped suddenly, causing Bel to run right into his back, knocking her off ground.
"Whoa" he caught her before she fell on her butt.
"Thanks" she gripped his forearm to gain her balance "what's wrong" she picked up her bag, where it had fallen during their collision.
"I just remembered, my mom picked up the car earlier" he winced, kicking himself mentally for not insisting that he dropped her off at school. Bel bit her lip, and thought about their predicament. Kevin couldn’t help but stare at her lips. ‘God she is so beautiful when she does that’ he thought.
“Come on” she grabbed his hand, and pulled him to the break room door. Looking out the diamond shaped window, she scanned the café, until her eyes found what they were looking for. Pushing though it, she pulled Ricky along behind her.
Xan had just walked into the Crash, when he saw Sonya sitting at a booth. She was going though her backpack, but was having difficulty pulling out her folder do to her foul mood. Xan grabbed her hand, causing her to look up at him. Even though her face gave nothing away, her eyes did. Xan found himself being pulled into the sadness that lurked behind her carefully masked face.
“What’s wrong” he asked as he slid in next to her, and pulled her against him. She sighed heavily, and rested her head on his shoulder.
“Nothing” she whispered. She really didn’t feel like talking about her and Bel’s fight. She really hated it when they fought, which wasn’t often. They had, two fights in the ten years they had been friends. The first being when they were in the fourth grade, and Sonya had borrowed Bel’s favorite sweater, and had forgotten to pick if up from the ground at recess, and when she finally did remember, the janitor had mowed the lawn, and ran right over the sweater. Bel had been very upset, and called her irresponsible. They didn’t talk to each other for four days. The next fight they had, had was beginning freshman year, when both girls were running for Freshman class president. They had tried to be supportive of each other, but both girls have a very competitive side, and soon the campaign became very heated, resulting in the a fall out between them, and Xan having to choose sides. They ended up not talking this time for three weeks.
Xan rubbed her shoulder, and kissed her forehead. He wasn’t sure what was going on, but he was pretty sure he would be finding out. Just then the bells over the door jingled, and John and Patty walked in. Xan couldn’t help but smile at the huge grin on John’s face. He knew that being in the presence of Patty was like a dream come true, and he was happy for his best friend. ‘
“Hey” they greeted as they slid into the booth opposite to them.
“Hey”
“Where’s Bel” John asked, handing Patty a menu. Xan noticed Sonya stiffen next to him, and sit up straight. She pretended to be going thru her notebook, avoiding the question. He was about to asked her what was wrong, when he felt Bel standing next to him.
“Hi Bel” Patty smiled. She liked Bel. They were both members of the Science Club, and she could always count on her with community services and volunteering.
“Hey Patty......John” she greeted them with a smile. Xan narrowed his eyes at their joined hands, before lifting them back to Bel.
“What’s going on” he asked her. Bel avoided his eyes, and she felt Ricky squeeze her hand. She turned and smiled at him, before Xan cleared his throat.
“I need the keys to the jeep” she held out her hand.
“For what, I thought we were all studying her” he shoot her a suspicious look.
“Change of plans” she shrugged her shoulders, and waited on him to hand over the keys. They stared at each other for a moment, silently having a conversation.
What’s going on Bel”
“Nothing, I just really don’t feel like studying. Could you not make this a big deal” her eyes pleaded with him to drop it, and finally, he surrendered, and stood up and fished the keys out of his pocket.
“Be careful, and be home by curfew” he warned her, and shot Ricky a threatening glare, in which he returned. Ricky wasn’t sure what was going on with Xan and Sonya, if anything, but he had see the way they were with each other this morning, and he hoped Xan wasn’t playing with her feelings. He had seen them talking together at lunch. They had been sitting so closely, that their hips looked to be joined. He had seen the way Sonya’s face lit up, when Xan had leaned over, and whispered something in her ear, while running his hand up and down her back. He knew that she was falling deeper and deeper, and he just didn’t want her to get her heart broke. Not long after lunch, he had also seen Xan slip into the eraser room with no other then Amber........his girlfriend. He didn’t know what kind of games he was playing, but he was going to keep a watchful eye on him.
“Sure
Dad.........bye Patty.......John” she pulled Ricky towards the door, completely ignoring Sonya. Xan watched the interaction between his sister and Sonya, and he knew why she was upset earlier....they were fighting. He took a deep breath and sighed.....this wasn’t good at all. When those two got into it, he always ended up having to chose sides, and since Bel was his sister, she expected him to back her, but Sonya was his friend also, and wanted his support. He really didn’t want to be in the middle again, so he knew he had to fix this, and fast. He sat down next to her, and pulled her head back on his shoulder. He could tell that she was on the verge of crying, but refused to let anyone see her cry.
“Should we get started” John voiced. They all agreed, and began to work on their project.
~~~~~~~~
They rode in silence. Ricky was behind the wheel, since Bel didn’t feel like driving. He glanced over at her, and found her staring out the window. They were riding with the top down, and her hair was whipping around her, making her even more beautiful. Not much had been said between them after she handed him the keys, and he was wondering what was on his mind. He knew that Kevin was back in town, and he wondered why she was spending time with him. It wasn’t like he was complaining or anything, hell he couldn’t be happier that she was with him, but he still couldn’t help but wonder. He turned his attention back to the road.
“Were are we going” she finally asked. They had just left the city, and were heading out into the desert. Ricky turned to her, and smiled.
“I want to show you something” was all he said before turning back to the road. Bel seemed to accept his answer, and turned back to staring out the window. They drove for another twenty minutes or so, when he finally pulled the jeep to a stop. Bel stared out in front of her, and was staring out at nothing but desert. She turned questioning eyes to him, and he smiled and hopped out of the jeep. He walked around to her side, and helped her out.
“Were are we” she asked, as she straighten her shirt.
“Come on” he placed his hand on the small of her back, and motioned towards a hill. He had to grip her around the waist when she lost her footing, and almost went tumbling down the hill.
“I got you” he whispered in her ear behind her. Bel shivered, and nodded her head.
“Thanks” conquering his fears, Ricky came to stand beside her, and captured her hand. To afraid to see her reaction, he continued up the steep incline. Bel stared at their linked hands, and found herself smiling. Finally, they came to rest at the top of the hill, and Bel stared in shock. There, below them was a dirt bike race track. It was brightly lit up, and there were maybe four or five people on the track. Ricky unfolded the blanket he had grabbed from the jeep, and sat down. He patted the spot next to him, and Bel slowly sat down beside him. In all her years living in Roswell, she didn’t even know this place existed.
“When did this get her” she asked him, watching as the bikers did tricks and spins on their bikes. Ricky watched in envy, as the race started.
“About two years ago” she watched his eyes light up, and a look of awe washed across his face.
“You really enjoy racing huh”
“Yeah.....it helps me when I feel overwhelmed. I can just go out into the desert, and jump the hills.....forgetting about my problems.....it’s really relaxing” his voice had became far away, as he talked, and Bel found herself scooting closer to him.
“Do you race here” Ricky was startled when he realized that she was sitting so close to him. He turned to look at her, and smiled, before focusing back out at the track.
“No......you have to have your own bike to register, and since I don’t........” he didn’t finish, figuring she would understand. Sonya had once told her that Ricky loved to race, but never could officially enter into any real races, because they couldn’t afford to get him bike of his own. She watched as he looked on sadly at the track. Not knowing why, but she scooted even closer to where their hips touched, and she placed her hand on his shoulder.
“It’ll happen” she assured him, and she rested her chin on his shoulder. He smiled, and rested his head against hers.
“Yeah” they spent the rest of the evening just watching the races, and occasionally talking about whatever came to mind.
~~~~~~~~
Liz sunk down into the softness of her bed. Bel and Xan had called from school and told her that they were studying at the Crash, so they wouldn’t be home for dinner. She knew that her parents would make sure they ate something. Clare, Amaris and Isaac were helping Amy with inventory at her shop, and most likely would be staying over at Kyle’s. Clare and Adam were with Isabel. She and Alex were having dinner at the Evans, and Clare and Adam had wanted to go see their grandparents. She had the house to herself, and she was going to get a small nap in before Max got home. She could feel how worked up he was, and she knew that once he arrive, there was no resting for her. She closed her eyes, and welcomed the sleep that took over.
Max slipped into their bedroom door, and found his wife fast asleep, and curled up against his pillow. He had to admit, she looked like a small child laying there in the middle of their California king bed. She was dressed in her red silk robe, and he knew that she was naked underneath. He stared at her for a moment, just taking in the sight of her. His body had calmed down somewhat since he left the office, but now as he stared at her, he felt his member harden all over again. She had been sending him images and her waves of desires all day, and the little stunt at lunch only seemed to heighten his arousal. Slowly, he began to strip out of his clothing, and carefully slid in behind her. He brushed her hair away from her neck, and kissed her tenderly.
“Mmmh.....” she moaned as his tongue rimmed her ear. She turned over on her back, and smiled up at him sleepily “hey” she grinned, and he smiled down at her.
“Hey.....how was your day” he asked her, his fingers playing with the strap of her robe. She leaned up and placed a kiss over his lips.
“It was ok.....but it got great after lunch” she winked, and giggled at the way his eyes darken in passion. His hand crept between the flaps of her robe, and rubbed his hand over her round belly.
“Is that right” he whispered. His hand moved to cup her breast, and he pinched her nipple, eliciting a moan from low in her throat.
“Um hum” she laced her hand though his hair, and held him firm as he sucked on her throat. He slowly kissed his way downwards, and kissed her chest. He undid her strap, and pushed her robe aside, and stared down at her creamy tanned skin.
“God Liz....I need you so bad” he dipped two fingers into her wet center, and ran his thumb over her hard nub. She nodded her head in understanding, and opened up to him. Max thrust into her heat with a satisfied sigh. He made sure not to put to much of his weigh on her, he didn’t want to crush the baby. Their movements were fast and full of hunger. They both cried out as they reached their climax, sweat glistening over their bodies. Max slumped down next to her, and pulled her against her.
“How are you feeling” he asked her, his hand running though her hair.
“Better now” she smiled. She ran her hand over his chest, and watched as his dick began to stir. She knew she had worked him over pretty good, and he was just getting started.
“Liz?” she set up and looked at him.
“Are you sure” he stared into her eyes. Liz smiled and kissed his lip.
“I’m fine Max” she brushed his bang off his forehead. Her eyes traveled to his left shoulder, and felt her stomach turn at the ugly black and blue mark there.
“Oh Max.....I’m so sorry” tears gathered in her eyes, as she traced her teeth marks. Max turned her face away from his shoulder, and forced her to look at him.
“Hey.....it’s ok” he tried to assure her, but she shook her head.
“Max.....have you seen your shoulder.....god, how could I’ve been so rough” every since he came back, Liz had turned into somewhat of a nymphomaniac. She was extremely horny all the time, not that he wasn’t, but she just couldn’t seem to be completely satisfied no matter how many times he made her cum. Sometimes, she would get extremely out of control, and Max wasn’t sure if he could keep up. Other times she grew very rough. Two nights ago, she had sunk her nails into his back and clawed him like a wild animal. His back was still healing. She had even took him hard on her parents bathroom floor last night when they were over for dinner. Too make sure he was always ready for her, she would send him images of them doing it, knowing that he would find a way for them to be together during the day. So he wasn’t surprised to see her sitting on his examine table this afternoon. It wasn’t like they needed to spice of their love life by role playing, but sometimes they liked to surprise each other, and Liz liked to play the innocent patient, and boy how he loved examining her.
“It’s ok Liz” he lifted up, and kissed her lips.
“Max......I’ve turned into some violent sex addict, who abuses her husband” she buried her head in his neck, and he rubbed her back. He couldn’t help the chuckle that escaped his lips, she was feeling bad for no reason.
“Liz....your not a sex addict. It’s just your hormones are out of wack right now because of the pregnancy.......besides you don’t hear me complaining do you” she shook her head no, and held him tight. Her hand drifted low on his chest, and began to reach for his cock.
“Up for another round” she grinned, as she stroked him. Max pulled her on top of him, and settled her over him. She sunk down on him, and moaned.
“Definitely”
~~~~~~~~~~~
Deja and Brian welcomed their new addition to their family Thursday night. Lexis A’nyia Johnson made her grand debut that evening. She weighed 7lbs even, and was a splitting image of her mother. She inherited Deja’s charcoal black eyes, and her jet black hair. Brian and Daniel have been posted at her side for the last two days. Lex even came down, and has been fondling over his niece. She was only two days old, but she already had the man in her life wrapped around her tiny little finger. Deja was just happy to finally have her in her arms. They had also officially announced their impending wedding to everyone, and they couldn’t be more happier.
It’s been two weeks since they received their Home Ed assignments, and Xan and Sonya, along with Bel, Ricky, John and Patty had been working hard. It has also been two weeks since Sonya and Bel had spoken to each other. They ignored each other at all cost. Xan had tried to talk to them both, but they refused to listen to reason. Xan and Sonya were spending a lot of time together, and she was enjoying every moment of it. She missed Bel, but as long as she was walking around with rose colored glasses, she refused to continue supporting her decision to stay with Kevin.
Bel was still confused as ever. Sure she was still dating Kevin, but she couldn’t help but think of Ricky. They had been spending a lot of time together working on their assignment, or going up to the track, and she loved every moment of it. She loved the way he made her laugh, and the way her stomach did flip flops when he smiled at her. Last night, they had spent the evening at his house watching movies, and they were having a good time, that was until Sonya walked in and gave her a dirty look, before walking into her room.
***********
“Excuse me” Bel said as she pushed off the couch. Ricky only nodded his head, and turned back to the T.V. He knew that whatever was about to go down, wasn’t going to pretty, and he’d rather be out here in the safety. Bel stalked down the small hall and pushed opened the door.
“What the hell is your problem” she asked her.
“My problem.....what’s your problem” Sonya stood up and closed her door.
“I don’t have a problem. You’re the one that stopped talking to me” Bel told her. Sonya flopped down on her bed, and pretended to read though her magazine. Sighing, Bel walked over and sat down at her desk.
“Are you still upset about me and Kevin” she asked her.
“What do I care that you want to date a guy that threats you like shit....it’s none of my business” she flipped thru the magazine, and kept reading.
“That’s right, it isn’t. Who I decided to let into my life is my business, and you or no one else has a say so about” she shout back standing up to leave. Sonya tossed the magazine on the floor, and stood up, blocking her exit.
“You see.....that’s were you’re wrong. When it involves my family it is my business” she stared at her.
“Wh-what are you talking about” Bel backed up.
“You think I can’t see what you’re doing” when she didn’t say anything, Sonya continued “you’re dating Kevin, but you’re keeping Ricky under you also”
“What.......you’re talking crazy. Ricky and I are friends.....th-that’s it”
“Yeah right.......you really think that the looks you two share are friendly....hell no. Do you even care that every time you’re around, he worships the ground you walk on.......or do you even noticed the wounded look on his face when you were just moments before laughing and talking with him, and in the next, you’re doing the same thing in his face with Kevin” she hissed. Bel stood there, unable to breath.
“I have to go” she pushed her away from the door, but Sonya grabbed her arm.
“I won’t let you hurt him...we may have ten years between us, but he is my brother” with that, she released her arm. Bel nodded mutely and left.
********
She had drove home in deep thought. She hadn’t realized that she had been stringing Ricky along. The thing was she did like him a lot, and she really loved to be with him, but there were still some feelings for Kevin that lingered, and made her to continue holding onto him. She had sat and talked to her parents about everything, and they had listened wholeheartedly as she explained the feelings she had been having lately, and how confused she was. Once she was finished, they had sat her down, and only said one thing “Follow your heart” She had went to her room, and laid there all night listening to her heart and what it had to say, and in the end she knew, she knew what she had to do. That is why she was sitting next to Kevin, as they drove the quite streets of Roswell. They had just left Wendy Coopers after prom party. Even though they didn’t go to the prom, she had agreed to accompany him to the party. He pulled up Buckley Point, and parked. He reached behind her seat, and pulled out a six pack.
“Sure you do want one” his speech was already slurred from the five beers he had downed at the party, and she knew that she would end up driving them home. She hated it when he drunk. He always ended up passing out on whose ever couch that was throwing the party, and she would have to bum a ride off someone.
“I’m fine........maybe you should slow down yourself” she offered. Her parents had told them about their dads one and only time he had tried alcohol, and they knew to stir clear.
“Nah....I’s fine” he stumbled out of the car, and sat the beer on the hood, before coming to her side of the car “come on” he pulled open her door, and Bel reluctantly climbed out. The moment she stepped out, his arms snaked around her waist, and he began to kiss her neck.
“Ummm....you taste so good” he mumbled, and licked her ear. Bel recoiled, and pulled away. She walked and sat on the hood of the car.
“Ah baby.....don’t be like that” he stepped in between her legs, and pulled her against him. Bel could feel his erection pushing against her center, and she wanted to throw up. She pushed him away.
“Kevin stop....your drunk” she pushed her skirt down, and stared at him. She knew she should wait, but she had to do this tonight.
“We need to talk” she told him, as she saw him moving towards her again.
“We can talk later.....give me a kiss” he forced his mouth on hers, and tried to stick his tongue in her mouth, but she held her lips firmly together.
“Kevin........I said no.......I think we should breakup”she told him as she pushed him away. Kevin stared at her, like she was dancing around in a clown costume, and singing hymns.
“What do you mean” he asked her, his eyes darkening in anger. Bel climbed off the car and stood in front of him.
“I mean I don’t want to be with you any.....” before she could finish, she felt the sting of his fist as it slammed into her face. The force of his hit was so hard, that it spun her around and she landed on the hood of his car. Kevin grabbed her by the back of the head.
“You really think I’m stupid” his breath was heavy and laced with beer as he breathed against her face “you really think I’ve noticed you and that prick Brown.....the way he looks at you....the way you’re always in his face” he flipped her over, and placed his large hand around her neck.
“Tell me.......is he the reason why I had to beg my own girlfriend for sex” he punched her again “you’re a fucking tease........tell me did Ricky boy get a taste of the goods” he held her in place by the throat, and with his free hand ripped her shirt.
“Kevin please...” she tried to push him off of her, but he was dead weigh against her.
“Shut up bitch” he slammed her head against the hood, and slapped her. Bel couldn’t believe this was happening. One minute she was telling him it was over, and the next he had hit her, shocking her to the core.
“I’m going to show you what happens to little teases like you” he brought his mouth forcefully on hers, and bit her lip when she refused to open to him. She gasped in pain, and he plunged his tongue in her mouth. Bel could smiled the alcohol on his breath, and could taste it’s bitterness on his tongue. She felt him move his hands between them and heard the teeth of his zipper. She felt him ripped her panties away from her. Tears leaked from her eyes, and she closed herself off.....blocking out everything around her.
~~~~~~~~~
Max looked at the clock for the tenth time. It was two o’clock in the morning, and Bel still wasn’t home. Maria tried to calm Liz down as she paced the living room floor. Liz had called her in tears, saying that Bel wasn’t home, and she couldn’t connect with her. They had tried calling her cell, but nearly jumped out of their skins when it rung on the kitchen counter. She had left it to charge, and forgot to take it with her. Xan, Sonya, Michael, Alex and Brian were all out looking her. It had took everything in Max’s power to stay behind, but he knew he had to be there for Liz. Xan had even tried to connect with her, but was met with a stone wall.
“Were is she” Liz cried, and Max wrapped his arm around her.
“It’s ok love.....it’s ok” he rubbed her back, and tried not to think of the worst. He was afraid that someone had found out about them, and had grabbed his daughter. The back door opened, revealing the distraught search party. Michael shook his head in the negative, and Liz broke down even more.
“We checked everywhere.....the hotel where they had the prom.........Wendy Coopers.....the park.....we even went by Kevin’s, but his parents said he had arrived how a little after midnight, and had been sound asleep since then” Michael reported.
“Something’s wrong.....this isn’t like Bel....she would have called.....let us know something” Liz clung to Max, and cried. The shrieking ring of the phone startled them all. They all stared at it, too scared of who was on the other end. Finally after the fifth ring, Max picked it up.
“Hel-hello” he choked out passed the nervous lump in his throat.
“Max....I-it’s Chris....I-I think you should come to the hospital.........it’s Bel” Max’s face paled, and the phone dropped from his hand.
TBC...........Maybe if i can get it all typed up, I'll post the second part tomorrow night.
