FIORA

“A month earlier”

I'm not drunk

Yes,I'm a little dizzy and lightheaded but that only because of how suffocating this club is, because if I was really drunk,I won't be able to feel this pain that is eating me from the inside out

Maybe if I drink some more i would be able to quench the fire that is threatening to burn me alive and I would be able to forget about “him”

The idiot that had just stab my heart with a dozen splinters and broken it into a million pieces

My boyfriend or rather my stupid ex, Jonathan had the audacity to cheat on me,look me in the face and tell me I meant nothing to him and that we were just a fling.i caught him in bed with the supposed “love of his life”,a blonde who snarled at me and encouraged Jonathan to kick me out of his house

“How dare they?” Moisture gathers in my eyes and I wipe it away with the back of my hand. As soon as I am able to gather myself,I'll get dad to make them both pay

Tonight is to clear my head,to forget

I sway my hips to the loud music as I lift the double shot of tequila to my mouth and slurp half of it.

I check my phone to see 10 missed calls–six from Rose and four from dad and a handful of text messages from Rose

“So??how are you and Jonathan?”

“Did he like the red dress I picked out for you?”

“Is everything okay or are you too busy to give me the deets?**winky face emoji**”

“Come on girl the suspense is killing me **begging emoji**”

“Where are you?you never ignore my calls”

“Pick up your damn phone!! I'm worried”

I reply with “i'm not okay”and “I'll explain everything when I get home” then turned off my phone to avoid further questions

I sense a presence behind me as a familiar masculine cedarwood scent hits my nostrils but when I look back,I see no one I know.

“Ugh,maybe I really am drunk”

I feel that darn loneliness again,the one that has settled so deep inside of me that I'm unable to fill it or push it out and it hurts more than anything

I’m may be in the midst of writhing bodies, upbeat music, and violet lights, but it feels like I'm floating in emptiness 

“Hey pretty”

Staring down at me is one of Rose’s many club friends Dylan and some other guy whose name I can't remember.

Rose has always been the more social,fun loving friend who always drags me–kicking and screaming– to her many unholy sanctuaries when I would much rather prefer watching “Emily in Paris”all day while in bed in my PJs.

“Heyyy”I slur as I give them a seductive smile

“Why is a pretty damsel like you dancing alone?”he asks,his eyes beaming with dark lust has they skimp through my red dress that has half my tittes on display and barely covers my ass

The dress Rose picked out for that idiot Jona– forget it I'm not even gonna say his name in my own head

“Would you like to dance with me?”

“Would love to” Dancing with Dylan is probably not a good idea because he creeps me out but maybe the company of he and his friend is just what I need to get rid of this loneliness

So I glue them both to me–Dylan at my back and his friends in front and rub myself against their erections feeling them get hard all at once

Grunt and groans fill my ears and I'm enjoying the fact that they both want me, and if I let them, they’d have me at the same time.

“At least somebody wants me”

The shots keep coming in as Dylan makes sure I don't lack any till I'm so intoxicated that I can't coordinate my thoughts or movement.

We are sitting at a more secluded area of the club now that Dylan not so gently dragged me to.it smells of a mixture of weed,sex and antiseptic soap. A combination that brings nausea to the back of my throat.

“W…what are we doing here?”i slur sounding too intoxicated for my own liking

Dylan leans forward and grabs my midsection, pulling me closer to him“To finish what you started”

“Get off me”I subtly try to push him away but his strong grip tighten on my mid-section

The sound of his tut echoes around me “you think you can just dry hump me and walk away? Not happening. You're going to finish what you started, whether you want to or not."”

He sniffs my hair like the creep he is “hmm, Lavender… let's see if you taste as sweet as you smell”

“I said get off! I'll rather get hit by a truck than be your sex toy” My voice is louder this time, but it comes out slurred and shaky, lacking the power I need right now 

He roughly pins me against the wall,a wicked smirk on his face “Your resistance only fuels my desire. The first time you turned me down, it made me crave you even more. But now, you’re right where I want you—and this time, there’s no Rose to come to your rescue.

  

I suddenly don't feel so drunk anymore

“If you don't release me at once,I will destroy you and everything you hold dear”I glare up at him, Feigning courage I don't feel “my father is a reputable lawyer and I'll make sure he locks you up for good”

He barks out a sinister laughter that send shivers down my spine “I don't give a fuck about your fucking father and there isn't a single thing he can do to me”

 Panic blooms inside me. I twist harder, trying to break free, but his arms wrap around me like steel. “Stop! Let go of me!!”

My heart races, and I feel my pulse pounding in my ears as he makes his way up my thighs and rips my underwear into shreds   

I have to do something to stop him,Now. I aim for his balls and hit it with my knee.he groans in pain and releases me but before I can escape he grabs me and smacks my head against the wall

“You stupid bitch,I'm gonna make you regret that”he pulls on my hair and bites my neck–hard

So hard that I'm too stunned to even speak or move and a teardrop rolls down my cheek

My head sways as my hands fall to my side,my will to fight all gone 

Maybe I will forget all about it and this is just a cruel dream that I'll wake up from very soon

“Yes,that right.stay still and I won't have to hurt your sorry little cunt for too lon—”Dylan is cut short as a large hand lands on his shoulder and shoves him with such force that he lands on the other side of the room

“Touch her again, and I'll shatter every bone in your hand”
