"You know I never wanted this marriage." he huffed."Well neither did I!"We stood with only inches separating us as he continued to ramble about how horrible I've been to him. I knew deep down he loved me, but I couldn't accept his love.I needed to leave. I needed to get out of here and away from him. His heart was too fragile for mine and I only feared that my presence would cause him more pain.…
"You know what?""What?""You look very pretty today with your hair down."She blushed a bit and looked away. I bit my tongue and focused my attention towards the teacher who barely walked in."Here." she whispered slipping a note in my hand. Making my heart skip a beat.I can already tell you like me. It's pretty obvious if you're trying to hide it."How obvious?""Obvious."----------------Reuploaded on March 12, 2019…
"All that lying is going to get ya caught doll," he said stepping out of the shadows. Smoking a joint."I... I..... I wasn't." I hiccuped trying to find the door handle without looking because who knew what he was capable of when no one was watching him. I thought I knew what he was capable of, but it turns out he had more things hidden about him that he's never told me or others about."I won't tell anyone.""H...... H..... How do I know that you won't?""Because I own you now. You belong to me, not Gerald.""I....I don't belong to anyone."He came closer to me and I shuddered in fear. All the love I had for him was gone and it was replaced with hate."Oh my little cupcake, you don't know anything. I protected you and loved you, so be grateful. Gerald could never have loved you the way I do.""Why do you lie to me? Do you just do that so you can make sure I stay and don't leave? You don't own me Colson.""Shhhh my cupcake."…

I sobbed.There were tears in his face but he didn't say anything."Colson please. Please don't." I pleaded."I'm sorry Ashley. I'm so sorry." he whispered as he rung the doorbell."Please don't. I love you Colson. I love you so much.... don't, please."My mother opened the door quickly and she froze when she saw him standing there with me sobbing in his arms."Ms. Parker I'm sorry about all of this. I really am. I love this girl but I can't stand next to her and pretend like you accept us. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.""Um.... Bring her in."I tried anything to hold onto him, but he let go and carefully set me on the couch. I watched him go up to her with his head down.It took him a few moments, but when he managed to keep it together, he said, "Take care of her."I cried harder into the pillow not bothering to wipe my tears. "Colson, please don't leave."He didn't look back as he left. My tears kept falling as I clung to myself. It hurt. It hurt everywhere.My love was gone. No, my teacher was gone.…
