The Roommate

Chapter 10

For PTX_Pentaholic99

"Wake up, buttface." I poked Scott's cheek repeatedly. He grumbled.

"No. Headache." His arms were holding my body close and the rumble of his voice pulsed through my body.

"Please. Wake up." He rolled onto his back to get away from me. I took advantage of that though. I put one of my legs on the other side of his body. I began walking two of my fingers up his chest. "Wake up." He didn't. I heard his soft sighs signaling that he was asleep. I groaned. "Scott!"

"I'm up. I'm totally up." He fell back asleep after he almost convinced me. I put my head in the crook of his neck.

"Scott...." It came out as a small whine. I could feel his chest rising and falling. I began kissing under his jaw. I heard him breathe in a sharp breath. His hands went to grab the hourglass of my figure. "You're awake now." I sat up. He finally had his eyes open and he was looking at me.

"I l-" He stopped himself from speaking. His hands rubbed against my arms. I had chills running through my skin. What did he almost say? I wanted to know. "What time is it?"

"Noon."

"Do you want to waste the day away?"

"Midterms ended last night." He hummed.

"Yeah. You proved that." His hands were now tugging at the bottom of his shirt that I was wearing.

"I'll prove it again if you want me to." His fingers lightly gripped my chin. He brought my lips down to his. Scott's phone interrupted us. He grabbed it from the bedside table. He made an annoyed noise.

"I now have plans today."

"No." I whined desperately. "Stay." I let out a loud laugh as he switch our positions. My hands went to where his hips were resting between mine.

"I have to." My arms went around his neck as he kissed my neck. I sighed gently as he would pull my skin in between his teeth to bite down. "I have to go take a shower."

"Take me with you."

"Ugh. You're so needy." He said it like he was annoyed at me but I knew he wasn't. He stood up and then lifted me into his arms. My legs wrapped around his waist. He had difficultly turning on the water with me in his arms but he slammed me against the wall as soon as it started. I laughed at the cold water on our skin. His hand kept one of my legs up while the other went to touch the ground. My hand went to hold his cheek as I felt him inside my body.

"Scott." My head fell against his shoulder. I laughed. He pulled me into a kiss again. The doorbell began ringing.

"Ignore it."

"Ah! Scott." His hips were slamming roughly into mine. I gripped his shoulders in my hands. The doorbell was ringing repeatedly. My moans were actually louder. Scott fingers were digging into my thigh. The water was getting warmer. That or my body was. I shivered, bringing my arms to my chest with my release. He chuckled at my position. I felt every muscle in his body tense before he relaxed. We were hugging each other. The doorbell rang again. "I should go get that."

"Yeah." He didn't let me go. He let my legs go at least. I felt his lips against my chest.

"Let go, Scott." I giggled. I managed to get away from him. I ran into my room to grab a pair of pants to put on and I ran to open the door. My smile fell. "What are you doing here?"

"I left my DVDs here." Ronnie pushed passed me. I was frozen. "Heard your moans. Are you missing me?" I felt him brush a piece of wet hair from my face. He was standing right behind me. I was scared. "Where's my shit, Mitch?" I slammed the door shut, crossing my arms over my bare chest.

"I don't know. Where'd you leave them? Hey!" His arms wrapped around my waist and lifted me up. He did it to turn me around. "Don't do that, Ronnie!"

"I've been thinking-"

"Well, that's a first." I saw his jaw tense.

"I've been thinking about us getting back together." He turned my face upwards towards his. "We had so much fun at one time."

"Yeah. One time."

"Mitch." He put his fingers through my belt loops to bring me closer. "I really want us to get back together. We were partners in crime." He kneeled slightly so his face was level with mine.

"I can't, Ronnie." He leaned over kiss me. I tried to push him away from me but he was stronger. I tried to stumble away from him. I ended up slammed against the wall with him on me. I smacked his hands from where they tried to pull my pants down.

"Well....that's surprising." Ronnie broke away from me to look at Scott. Scott had a towel wrapped loosely around his waist. I let out a sigh of relief.

"Who's he?" Ronnie turned back to me with one finger pointing toward Scott.

"He....I....He-"

"I'm Mitch's boyfriend. Who are you?" I felt my eyes go wide. Not once did we even use that word. But I was thankful.

"I'm Mitch's ex. Do you mind? We're trying to have a conversation."

"From here it looks like you're trying to rape my boyfriend." The excessive use of that word made me flinch.

"I'm not." Ronnie turned back to me. I cowered away from him. "Please talk with me."

"I...." I looked towards Scott. He was calmly waiting for me to tell him if everything was okay. "We'll talk. But that's it." I pushed Ronnie's chest back from mine. Scott calmly backed out of the room. "What are you really doing here?" I was able to back away from the wall.

"I want to get back together."

"You hit me." His fingers tried to brush against my cheek but I flinched away.

"Mitch-"

"You cheated on me." I closed my eyes. I shouldn't even being talking to him. Why did I do it? "Get your stuff and please get out." I tried to walked away. He grabbed my arm.

"Mitch-"

"Let go of me!"

"Stop struggling." I let out a small scream when he brought me closer. "I need you back, Mitch."

"Let go!"

"Mitch, stop!" I fell to the ground when I received a smack to the cheek. I held the area in my hands. I looked up at Ronnie. Next thing I saw was Scott punching my ex in the face. Not once. But a lot of times. So much that I lost count.

"Scott!" I wrapped my arms around his torso. I pulled Scott off. He turned around to check if I was okay.

"Are you okay, Mitch?" I felt an involuntary tear slip down my hurt cheek. I nodded. He turned back to Ronnie. I watched my ex get dragged out of the room. "If you come into this apartment again when I'm not here, I will beat you. And if you touch Mitch again, I will fucking kill you. I will beat you to a pulp. Do you understand?" Scott's voice came out as a growl the whole time. He shoved Ronnie out. "I'll mail your shit to you. Just never come back or I'll burn everything." Scott slammed the door shut.

"Scott?"

"Hey." He came to sit down next to me. He still had a towel around his waist. His hand went to touch mine. I saw the cuts on his knuckles. I moved away from him.

"Don't you have somewhere to be." My voice was shaking as I retreated to my room. I shut the door and refused to let Scott in. I didn't even come out when he left. I was scared. I snuck into Scott's room when it got dark out. I climbed into bed and curled up to him.

"Mitch?" As soon as he said my name, I cried. "Hey. It's okay." I felt his forehead rest against mine.

"I'm a worthless punching bag."

"No, baby. You're a beautiful human being." I pulled him into a kiss. They way he treated me that night, it made my heart beat faster.

It scared me.
