Behind Closed Doors (studentxteacher) COMPLETED

Chapter 35

She smiled at him before turning back to me. "Shouldn't you call Will to let him know about this?"

"No, he's out with Shane, I don't want him to freak out. I'm going to let him have fun tonight." I replied.

"He won't be happy about that decision." Xavier muttered.

"I know."

I went upstairs to my room to go to bed. I buried my face in my pillow and cried myself to sleep.

My dream was the same as the one where my father shot Will. I woke up screaming into my pillow again.

Xavier came running into my room before I even got out of bed. His eyes scanned my room before landing on me, crying on the bed.

"Nightmare?" he whispered, turning to shut the door.

I nodded, trying to get my breathing under control.

He walked over and sat on my bed. I surprised him by hugging him tightly. He lied down with me, just hugging me and rubbing my back.

I wasn't afraid of him. He had no interest in me so I was safe.

I guess we fell asleep together because I woke up in his arms. Was it wrong for me to have Xavier hold me while I was dating Will? I mean it's not like we were kissing. This was completely innocent.

When I woke him up, he was a bit confused as to why he was in my bed.

"Sorry, Rain." he said, getting up. "Guess I fell asleep here."

"It's okay. You helped me last night. I didn't cut." I told him.

"Glad I could assist but let's not tell Will about this." he muttered.

"Agreed." I nodded.

He left and I got dressed. It was around 9 and I was wondering if anyone figured out Xavier had been with me.

Downstairs, Zoey and David sat in the living room. Sky, Lily and Bethany were eating in the kitchen.

I ate quickly, praying no one had told the girls about our fathers contact with me. I knew at some point I should tell the girls why security was being raised at school and home but I didn't want to worry them.

The morning passed quickly. Bethany called a company to come install a security system this afternoon. Lily showed me what she had learned at ballet class yesterday.

Will texted me after lunch.

hey beauty, comin over soon

how r u feeling? did u have fun?

im fine, headache. it was boring. how was ur night? btw, mom asked me to invite Shane to dinner.

I sighed, now I'd have to get yelled at for not calling him last night. He'd freak out, I wasn't looking forward to it.

dad called

comin over now

I sat up in my room, reading a book. I was trying not to let my mind wander because it went to my father and what he would do to get me. I wasn't as worried about what he'd do to me, I was worried about what he'd do to anyone who got in his way.

I heard footsteps coming toward my room. I looked up and saw Will shutting my door as he entered.

There was no obvious signs of a hangover in his appearance as he looked at me expectantly.

"My dad called me and said he knows who I'm with and where I live. He told me to expect a visit soon. The end, no need to flip out." I said to him.
