Pulling Heart Strings

Chapter 5

,,Got it?'' He asked once again and I nodded hesitantly. Everything about him is so scary yet mysterious. It was just a light slap and a stupid argument but he really scared me with his threats.

He slowly let go of my neck and sighed. Realising me from his grip he went to the balcony and breathed slowly. What is wrong with him?

,,I'm sorry. I have to go." He said and left without even looking back. Stopping at the door he said ,,Tell Jade I went home." The slammed the door behind him.

I was in pure shook. Everything escalated so hard for just a little stupid conversation. This guy for sure has some anger issues. He's way to aggressive from what I've seen. The way he looked at me was so hard. I sighed. To process all this shit I decided to go to sleep.

I went into my room and locked the door. I went into the bathroom and turned on the tap. A warm shower is what I need right now.

I don't know what got over me. I thought I have my anger issues under control. After that incident in the past I took therapy. It helped me a lot and I actually had everything under control.

Most people respected me because of the way I looked and behaved. Even if I said something bad shit to them they never fought back. At least girls didn't. It's just crazy how that 5.1 inch small girl had the courage to disrespect me. Worse slap me. After 'her' no one disrespected me until today. Rose. No one has ever slapped me. Most of the people were scared of me. She just didn't think about it and just slapped me without knowing me. Something was different about her.

After the shower I took some pills to control my anger and went to bed. Sleep would be the thing I needed. It's one thing that helped me calm down.

Next morning...

I woke up with a slight hangover. The sun races were shining through the curtain on my face. I didn't drink much so the head ache wasn't that bad. I got out of bed and went to the kitchen to get some water. I poured myself a glass and gulped it down. After that I was on my way back to the bedroom when I saw Mae sitting on the couch and watching television. I went over to her and sat down next to her.

,,Good morning" I said. ,,Morning Rosy." She said yawning. ,,Did you sleep well?" I asked turning my head to her. ,, I actually did. I remember almost sleeping with Jade. We were kissing each other and stuff. But before having sex he said that he didn't wanna have sex in such a state. After that I shouted at him and then... I don't remember." She said rubbing her face with her hands.

I sighed and said ,,Good thing. It's really stupid. Because you two are good friends and sleeping with him would make everything weird you know?" She nodded and sighed. ,,I know. I'm happy nothing happend. Or else it would have been a bit weird as you said. It's not like we haven't slept with each other before. But now that we're living in the same building which means that we'll be seeing each other more often. Like before it was different. We would just meet up for sex. But now I don't know." She said in a slightly sad tone. ,, Hey nothing happend so don't worry. I'm sure everything will be fine. And do you like him?" I asked placing my hand on her shoulder. She sighed once again and looked out of the window.

,,I don't know. I've never thought about that. Because we were just two friends who fucked each other. Now that you ask I'm not sure anymore." I covered my face with my hands. I was really tired and didn't know what to say. So I just said ,,Think about it!" She nodded.

We then continued watching tv. We eventually went to the bathroom and cleaned ourselves and started eating breakfast.

,,So what did you do yesterday evening?" She asked while eating her cornflakes. ,,I just watched tv." I replied. ,,What about Stephen?" She asked. ,,Do not talk about that asshole." I said as the anger started to come up again as soon as I heard his name. ,,What happend. Did he do something?" She asked curiously looking into my eyes.

I deeply breathed in and out and said ,,I just asked how he was but that dude started insulting me and stuff. After some time it really got onto my nerves. So I slapled him He got really angry and threatened me. Then left."

Her eyes whidend in shock and she asked ,, First why would he insult you and seconds why the hell did you slap him? You don't even know him?" ,,Like I care. And he was the one who started and I just got angry. So he deserved it for being so fucking rude." She just shook her head and said ,,Girl. Sometime guys just have some anger issues. You shouldn't have taken it too serious. From now on I don't think it's a good idea to let you both alone." ,,Haha that would be funny. Because the next time I'll make him pay for what he said." I smirked.
,,Rose stop being so childish and just forget that shit." She said holding my arm. ,,I'm not childish. I just don't want some jackass disrespect me. I wanna slap him again." I said furrowing my eyebrows. ,,ROSE. FORGET IT. OR ELSE..." She screamed at me. ,,Ok girl chill. I'll forget it but if it happens again he's dead meat. Who does he think he is." She snapped her fingers and put her finger in front of her mouth telling me to shut up. I nodded and sighed.
