mumble, laying back down. ā€œBut you were cryingā€¦ N-nevermind.ā€ she lays at my side and I turn to face her. She copies the action and for a moment we just stare at each other in silence. That ā€˜what just happened?ā€™ thought resurfaces and after a moment I realize what the answer is; letting out a gasp involuntarily. ā€œWhatā€™s wrong?ā€ River touches my arm and I look around at my surroundings for a minute before looking back at her. ā€œDid weā€¦ Did we just have sex?ā€ She looks at me thoughtfully for a minute. ā€œI guess soā€¦ yeah.ā€the last word slips from her mouth and she gets this look of concern about her.

And now the regret sinks in. This isnā€™t how this should have happened. This is like losing your virginity to some random friend you get drunk with. This is even worse than that, I lost my virginity to someone who I was pretty sure hated me less than a day ago. I swore to myself that Iā€™d follow all of those rules mom had given me, granted she wanted me to get married first but I was at least going to date the person for years before this happened. It wasnā€™t suppose to be like this at all.

ā€œOh god, donā€™t cry again. Look, itā€™s not as bad as it seems. Just relax.ā€ River pulls me closer and whispers words of reassurance for a few minutes and somehow it does relax me. ā€œItā€™ll be okay, we can talk about it in the morning. Right now you should probably get some rest, god knows you need it after the week youā€™ve had.ā€ she rubs my shoulder blade and after a few minutes the exhaustion from everything that happened today finally gets the better of me and I doze off.

Chapter 7 - "Running From Shadows"

 

ā˜ÆRiverā˜Æ

After everything Ellie quickly falls asleep, clinging onto me like Iā€™m keeping her alive. I watch her drift asleep, how worn out she looks concerns me. The girlā€™s had a long week.

At least an hour goes by and still Iā€™m wide awake, my thoughts racing uncontroallably. Iā€™ve gone over it countless times, replaying what happened again and again and still I donā€™t understand any of it . If only I hadnā€™t been such an idiot, this wouldnā€™t have happened. What was I thinking? I wasnā€™t protecting her, I only made her life more difficult. Iā€™m the cause of those cuts on her arm. The thought sends a shiver down my spine and on reflex I pull her closer. I take a deep breath. The smell of her rushes in, swimming around my brain and instantly I relax; knowing that sheā€™s still here. Safe and sound.

Maybe things could have gone differently if I were a better person. If I hadnā€™t hurt her. If I hadnā€™t left her alone to befriend a bunch of spoiled bitches. It was such a lost cause, becoming someone sheā€™d hate in order to protect her. I didnā€™t trust myself the first time she kissed me, I knew someone would end up getting hurt. But despite my efforts, she got hurt anyway and even worse she hurt herself. It shouldnā€™t have ended up like this, but it did.

What could I have done to make things different anyway? Maybe if I had just let things happen naturally instead of pushing her awayā€¦ No, no, Iā€™m the cause of all of this, her being closer to me would have just been worse.

But I still ended up in her bed regardless, god knows I could have gone about this better. As soon as the thought emerges, Ellie murmurs something in her sleep and tightens her hold on my torso. ā€œShh, itā€™s okay.ā€ the little words of comfort leave my mouth involuntarily and it seems to calm her dreams almost instantly. She quickly goes back to a more steady, relaxed state of sleep.

I stay still for a while, not sure what to do. My thoughts continue to race, their screams torturing me. I just need to clear my headā€¦ I look down at Ellie again, sheā€™s still soundly asleep. I nudge her away, or I try to before she scoots closer. After a few tries I can finally wiggle free and get out of bed. Cold air greets my skin and it stings, like an awful reminder of what Iā€™ve done.

Quickly I pull my clothes on, rummage through her drawers for a shirt, and walk out of her room as quietly as my clumsy, shaky legs can manage. I find myself downstairs, in the bathroom. The door sticks now from where I was hitting it. I go to the bathroom and try desperately to push away the memories that flood back to me. I stare at the wall, it seems to be the only spot in the room that doesnā€™t remind me of what she tried to do. I make it to the sink and wash my hands rather absentmindedly. I make the mistake of glancing up at the mirror and for quite a while I just stare back at my reflection.

The image disgusts me, like looking at a horrible person. Which after a time, becomes understandable because I am a horrible person. I let someone I love get bullied to the point where she couldnā€™t take it anymore. Iā€™m a spineless coward.

My feet shuffle out of the bathroom quickly when those thoughts start to pour in. I stumble back up the stairs and back into her room. I stop in the doorway though, the site of her sleeping naked in bed seems to startle my feet out of their somewhat possessed means of travel.

I shouldnā€™t have done this to her. After a moment of standing there, thatā€™s the only thought that rings out . Iā€™ve messed up enough already, but this was something I didnā€™t think even I was stupid enough to do. I donā€™t know why it happened really. Kissing her was understandable, Iā€™d been wanting to ever since things started to go downhill. But this? I didnā€™t mean for this to happen.

I couldnā€™t help it, she just kept staring at me with that broken expression and all I wanted to do was fix things. So it started out with little kisses, like I was trying to kiss away her pain. Trying to erase what Iā€™d done. But I should have known nothing good would come from it and it went too far. Now Iā€™ve messed up things even more.

I should leaveā€¦ She doesnā€™t deserve anymore of my bull shit. I step inside the room cautiously and stop when my feet bump into the clothes beside her bed. I stare at her for a moment and run the thought through my mind a few times. I could leave. It would be a lot better if I did, wouldnā€™t it? Iā€™d be out of her life, I could find a way to disappear. Sheā€™d be better off that way.

I find myself climbing back into bed, moving back into the same position I was in when I left . She clings to me again and sleeps calmly, like I was never gone. I watch her sleep for a while, not really wanting to leave despite the little thoughts of disappearing. I need to leave before itā€™s too late. I canā€™t be hanging around when she wakes up in the morning, Iā€™ll fuck things up again. I sigh out after a moment . I play with her hair for a while, one part of me trying to talk myself out of it and the other trying to make me leave. Itā€™s the right thing to do. After that, I know which sideā€™s won.

I lay there for a moment longer, not wanting to leave the surprising comfort I feel when I hold her. Reluctantly, I wriggle out of her grasp again. I sit on the edge of the bed and put on my socks, then reach around in the dark for my shoes; all the while trying not to look back at her. Moments later, Iā€™m ready and I stand up. I glance back at her without meaning to and I find myself marveling at how she looks right now; stripped of her cover and sleeping peacefully. Nowā€™s no time to stand in awe. I need to go. The thought pulls me out of my daze and I start to move.

She stirs in her sleep, as if she senses that Iā€™m leaving. Murmuring in her sleep, she reaches out; waking up with a small gasp when she finds nothing but the bed sheets. ā€œRiver?ā€ she sits up a bit, squinting at me and my heart flutters at that sleepy, hopeful expression on her features. Itā€™s simply heartbreaking just to look at her. ā€œIā€¦ Iā€™ll be back in a minute. Go back to sleep, sweetie.ā€ I struggle to get the words out and it pains me to lie to her like that but I know I canā€™t stay and risk doing something else in the morning. ā€œMmm, okay.ā€ she snuggles back into the blankets and closes her eyes again.

For a long while I just stand there, afraid that Iā€™ll wake her again if I move. After Iā€™m pretty sure sheā€™s soundly asleep again, my feet shuffle towards her and I bend down to kiss her cheek. This faint smile appears on her lips and with it something pains my heart. Am I really doing the right thing right now? Maybe I could just stayā€¦  No, thatā€™s selfish of me, to hang around just because thatā€™s what Iā€™ve wanted to do for months now. I have to leave for her sake.

I shuffle out of her room, pad quietly down the steps, and rush out of the house. Out of her life, if I can help it. If I werenā€™t in her life things would have gone so much smoother and all that happened this week would have been totally nonexistent. Maybe now I can help her get to that outcome. Iā€™m sure I can find a way to disappear.

Itā€™s nearly five in the morning when I get through the front door of my house. Some of the lights are on and I can tell Zoey is already up and getting ready for work. I walk cautiously into the kitchen for a drink, hoping I donā€™t run into her.

But of course she comes into the kitchen with a mess of stuff in her hands. She sets the pile of papers, make up, her purse, and her jacket all down on the kitchen table in a big scattered mess before looking up at me quizzically. ā€œDid you just get home?ā€

I only offer the slightest nod of my head before walking to the fridge. ā€œWhat the hell were you doing there all this time? Youā€™re lucky todayā€™s Saturday.ā€ I donā€™t offer a reply, instead I rummage through the fridge and pretend I didnā€™t hear her question.

ā€œAnd god youā€™re a mess, you look like you just got out of a one night stand.ā€ her statement makes my movements stiffen. I pull a Pepsi out of the fridge before turning reluctantly to face her, my eyes looking anywhere but at her. ā€œOh my god, River. You didnā€™t.ā€ I start to panic when I glance at her and she gives me this look of
