New Beginnings

Chapter 7 : Unwanted kisses

Chapter 7

Monday... 

Jeff POV 

Alex and Nick had to stay after class, and they told me to wait by their lockers. So I was doing that. But I saw Sebastian just down the hall, and I was scared he'd do something to me again.

And unfortunately, he saw me here, standing all alone with no protection.

"Hey, Jeffrey," Sebastian said, walking over.

My back was against the lockers. 

"What are you up to?" Sebastian asked.

"W-waiting for Nick and Alex," I said, just above a whisper.

"Oh. Well I'll wait with you. How about we do something fun while we wait?"

"N-no t-thank you!"

"Come on, Jeffrey. It'll be fun."

"N-no!"

He went to grab my wrist, but I ran. I ran to the classroom Alex and Nick were in, and I threw the door open, and shut it really quick.

"Jeff, are you ok?" Alex asked.

"S-Sebastian! H-he... H-he..."

"It's ok, Jeff. We're done anyway."

Alex and Nick walked me out of the classroom. Sebastian smirked at me as we walked by.

"Ok, what'd he do?" Alex asked, once we were back in our dorm room.

"H-he tried to t-take me away! B-but I r-ran!"

"Good. I wonder what his problem is..."

"You guys want to go get dinner now?" Nick asked.

"I'll stay here!" I said, quickly.

"Nick, how about you go grab us dinner. I'll stay up here with Jeff," Alex said.

"Ok."

I curled up in bed. Alex sat next to me, and I curled into her side.

"Jeff..."

"What?"

"You were doing so good..."

"What do you mean?"

"You were so happy... But now you're scared again, and you're stuttering..."

"It's only because of Sebastian."

"I know. But you could say "It's only because of your dad" before. We need to figure out how to fix this."

"How?"

"I don't know yet. But I'm thinking maybe I'll go talk to him."

"No, you can't!" I said, grabbing her wrist.

"Why not?"

"He'll hurt you!"

"Jeff, he won't hurt me. I'll be the one hurting him."

I sighed.

"Please don't," I said, quietly.

"Jeff, I can't let him keep threatening you and hurting you. I won't let it happen. Especially after everything that happened between you and your dad."

"I don't want him to hurt you!" I said, clinging to her now.

"Jeff, don't worry about me, ok? I'll be fine."

Nick came in, and handed us our dinners.
