Chapter 7 Dreams Through Deception 3.2
"David!" Looking at him, I stand gasping his name in surprise. It never crossed my mind that we would see each other again, in fact as sad as it is to say it's as if I forgot he existed after meeting Ren. It's as if Ren was the only one that consumed my mind.
"What, what are you doing here?" I find myself stumbling to find the right words.
"I saw you sitting here for a while and was curious, thinking something might have happened since you're supposed to be at work at this hour normally." His gaze shifts to my laptop his sad face becomes distorted as the image of Ren stands center on my screen.
"That bastard again, why the hell are you looking at pictures of him, don't tell me you fell for him after he took advantage of you." He grabbed my shoulders shacking me raising his voice.
"Let go!" I push backwards from his chest breaking free and stumble back and falling on my behind. I can feel a pain shoot threw my body as I try to pick myself up. Damn it I look up glaring at this bastard all this is his fault. Remembering that night, remembering how he had been lying to me.
"I don't have to explain anything to you anymore we're over David." I shout at him.
Walking over to me I am ripped off the ground I cringe at the pain as I'm shaken about. I have never seen him this angry. Why is he angry he has no right?
"David! A familiar voice calls him making us both jump. Looking over Shion a girl with short black bob cut hair, Brown eyes and a slim face is watching horrified. Tall and petite body like a model beautiful as always, I glance at her then him. She was one of my best friends, I guess I was right he was sleeping with them too. Feeling like I was breaking as I watch her eyes on him, it makes me sick.
"Go ahead David your other toys are waiting." I know I'm being nasty but I just want to scream out all my hatred right now looking at them. I feel him release me as he looks at Shion.
"Heh; only one that is being toyed with is you, Ren never has serious relationships. I feel sorry for you, how pathetic."
"Even if it's pathetic, he's way better then you. By the way, it looked like you were struggling that night in the department where it counts most with those women."
I never dreamed I be talking back like this to David ever, I truly was no longer his doll. Looking amused I go to gather my stuff to leave when I a sharp pain stings the left side of my face and I stumble and hit the table and fall to the ground stumbling to grab something to break my fall. Grasping the metal chairs arm I end up hitting my head on the edge of the glass table leaving a scratch. It really hurts, I touch my head blood dripping down. Looking around, I see David and Shion already embracing and walking down the street. Making since of what just happened I realize from the pain that David had hit me. I feel the tears raise up. Damn bastard, I was so angry, everything becomes a blur as I gather my things and stagger to head home.
Placing the computer down on the couch I go to the bathroom I need to clean up the cut and disinfect it. As I wipe off the blood and bandage my head I cures him. I never wished to hurt someone truly before but for the first time my eyes where seeing red. The left side of my face was swelling and becoming blue and purple. I can't go to work tomorrow like this I grab ice and wrapped it in a towel, praying it helps to make it fade even a little faster. Until this fades I'll just tell them I'm working on the article following Ren around as plans suddenly changed. I hope its gone before the charity event. I can't let anyone see me like this I feel tears drip down. Who am I kidding it won't be gone that fast. I lay across the top of my bed and close my eyes, a flash of Ren's gentle face from that night comes into my thoughts and disappears just as fast leaving me feeling empty and lonely.
"Ren." Muttering to myself as darkness consumes me.
