Chapter 25
Hard To Love
Kys POV.
I sped and cried the entire way home.
Once I finally pulled into my drive way I got out of the car, throwing up into the bushes next to me.
Once I was done I jus sat down and put my head in between my legs.
I couldn't believe what just happened.
"Renae?" I looked up to see my neighbor walking towards me. I instantly wiped my tears with my shirt and looked up at her.
"Wassup" I asked not wanting to be bothered. I needed to figure all this shit out.
"What's wrong?" She asked sitting down next to me.
Ugh.
"Nothing man just ate some bad food" I replied knowing that sounding like a lie. Dumbass.
"Why you lying to me?" She asked lowkey laughing at how bad my lie was.
"I just don't wanna talk about it" I said.
"Alright I'll respect th- holdup why is your neck all red like that" she asked looking closer, her eyes widening.
"Nothing bruh back up forreal" I said on the verge of more tears.
I tried to get up but instead she sat on the ground next to me and pulled me into her arms.
I started quietly crying because it's been a minute since I had a shoulder to cry on. Literally.
She didn't say anything she just rubbed my back and let me cry it out. I was glad she wasn't because words never help me calm down.
It's physical touch that usually eases me but I haven't gotten it in a while.
After a while I separated myself from her arms and wiped away my tears. She just looked at me still no words but somehow I could understand what she was thinking.
"Do you feel better?" She asked me.
I nodded.
"Good" she got up holding her hand out to me.
I grabbed it and she lifted me up walking me to the door.
"Can I come in?" She asked.
I nodded again.
I sat down on the couch and she sat down on the chair across from me.
"Can you please tell me what happened" she asked politely, I could tell she was angry but doing well to keep her composure.
I put my hands over my face and ran them down looking up at the ceiling.
"I wouldn't know where to start" I said looking at her.
I honestly hate telling people I was abused, it's embarrassing especially for me being a masculine appearing stud. It feels pitiful.
"From the begging" she said still patiently waiting.
"I- need to get water" I got up getting a bottle for her as well. I came back and sat down after handing it to her.
"My ex girlfriend is in town" I said plainly.
"That doesn't tell me why theres a red line across your throat" she said.
"Well my ex is not like other exes" I replied.
"What do you mean" she said confused.
"She is abusive dawg ok she used to beat on me all the time and held me captive when I tried to leave her" I finally got it off my chest.
"What?" She said angrily standing up in her seat.
"It's fine I'm gonna handle it alright" I said rubbing my temples.
"If you could handle it you wouldn't be marked up" she said looking at me.
"I thought she was dead" I replied shrugging.
"Why would you think that?" She asked.
"I can't tell you that" I said.
"Alright we'll I'll make sure she is this time" she pulled out the strap from her pants and began walking out of the house.
"This is my problem Leno, not yours. I said I would handle it" I followed her out the door.
"You don't even know who she is" I proceeded.
"Dee no?" She said nonchalantly.
"How do you know that" I looked at her suspiciously.
"The bartender that drugged you was working for her" she made her way to her car, unlocking her door.
"Wait Leno" I said.
"What?" She asked.
"I'm coming with you" I told her.
I got my strap out of my car and hopped in her passenger seat.
*few minutes later *
"Why are you doing this, you don't have to help me" I said looking out of the window.
"I want to" she replied.
"Why?" I was confused as to why she was even helping me.
She didn't seem like the type to really go out of her way for others in this way.
"I don't need a reason I just want to" she replied.
Iggg.
"What's our game plan" I asked.
She thought for a few minutes until finally answering my question.
"I want you to go in first and I'm going to sneak up behind her when she's not looking okay? You think you can do that" she asked concerned a bit.
"I- I think so" I said.
"I need a straight answer babygirl" she said.
Babygirl?
"Yeah I can do that" I took a deep breath and tried to keep myself from having a panic attack.
We arrived at a motel 6 on C and got out of the car.
"Ok the Bartender said she was in room 203. I want you to knock on the door and I will stand on the side" I nodded.
We walked to the room and I did as she said, knocking lightly.
"What the fuck you want" she said.
I knocked again, hearing her footsteps coming towards the door. My heart was beating irregular and my palms were sweaty. I felt really uneasy.
"Stop knocking on my da- well I see you came to yo senses princess" Dee said smirking.
"Can I talk to you" I said playing along to whatever sick game she was playing. I made sure to leave the door creaked open so that Leno could get in. I also had the strap on me so I felt a bit better about the situation. We might be catching a body tonight Ky.
"Why you over there" she asked patting on the spot next to her.
Gah damn psycho.
I walked over to her.
"I want to know why you won't leave me alone" I said in all honesty.
"Because you're mine" she growled subtly.
"Why did you cheat on me then, and beat on me all the time" I needed to know.
"Because, I don't know. I just don't like when you do things I don't want you to princess, I want you to do what daddy say" yeah she's legit crazy.
I didn't say anything to that because what the hell do you say to sum like that.
"What happened to you Dee, you were good to me in the beginning" I said.
"Wassup with all these damn questions bruh" she started getting mad.
"I just need to know" I said.
"Nah you don't come in here questioning me Ky, I ain't having that shit" she said.
I got up and she pulled me back by my wrists.
"Like I said many times before, I do this cause I love you" she said.
"Let me go" I cringed at how hard she was squeezing me.
Instead she gripped them tighter and pushed me against the wall so that my back was facing her. She pressed herself into me. I winced not wanting to get SA again.
"Take this off princess" she said starting to pull down my sweats until I heard the door swing open. Finally.
Before she could look back, Leno pistol whipped her twice, letting her fall to the ground. She proceeds to tie her up and put duck tape over her mouth.
She walked towards me.
"Are you okay?" She said checking my face and arms to make sure I wasn't hurt.
"Yes" I said, my mouth was dry and I felt sick to my stomach but this feeling wasn't new.
"Good" she pulled me into a hug before taking out her phone and making a call.
"Yo I need you to meet me somewhere" she said into the phone
"Yes it's a code 6 I'll send you the addy" she hung up and brought her attention back to me.
