Take The Shot?
Rape was always my biggest fear. Never knowing what could really happen, opening so many doors to so many opportunities of what could happen to you. Then comes all the types of rapes, and who could the rapist be. Worst of all is, could it happen to me in this life?
Theres nothing special about me, im 5,5' brunette with brown eyes, and very little freckles. I'm not fat, but I'm no Victoria Secret Model either. Guy never seem to notice me, and I have liked this one guy for over 2 months now, and I can bet you he doesn't really notice me at all. I did all that I was suppose to do, homework, chores, and I had the most chill reputation ever. Not bringing attention was my gift, I would be like that beige rabbit in a herd of white rabbits, not the same but easily blends in. All of these were my thoughts until last week.
The house next door has been on sale for over two years now and no one seemed to care about it, theres so many rumor about it being haunted that no one even cares about seeing it. I have my thought on that house, but through the out side it looks rather beautiful. Only until two weeks ago did it sell to this young Canadien man. He was tall and handsome, but with an edge to him, I couldn't quite put my finger on it. He was mysterious too but I thought "what a fool to move in to that house!"
After he moved in I didn't really wanted to talk to him until i came back from school and saw him pull out a guitar out of his car! I was so excited I walked to the from part of my front yard and said, "Nice guitar you have there!" He turned around slowly and smiled, I could feel my heart start to race slowly. "Thank you, do you play?" His voice was deep but not creepy deep, just right. Before I could notice I just spent 3 seconds staring at him! Pulling myself together I responded, "No, but it has always been a dream to learn how to play, you see my grandfather used to play for my when I was a child." He smiled again, and man I could feel the heat in my cheeks, LORD I'm blushing and I'm only talking to him! Then after about half a second he quickly said approaching me slowly with his guitar in one hand and his cell phone in the other, "It would be my pleasure to teach you... ummm sorry whats your name?" "Alena, after my greek great grandmother, and yours?" He repeated my name, like if the sound of became extase to his ears. "My name is Kevin, nice to meet you Alena." Our hands shook softly and I could tell that he was blushing as well. After that, every single day after school there I was in the haunted house learning how to play the guitar.
The house was always cold, but the creeps the house gave me didn't seem to really get in the way of the heat I could feel between me and Kevin. The only thing that seemed to concern me was that I don't even really know him all that well, whats his age anyway?! After class on Saturday I pulled myself together and asked him, "So Kevin just out of curiosity I was wondering how old are you really?" He started to laugh, and I knew I had the most confused face on, why was this funny? How could this amuse him, 'cause I know for a fact that I ain't the funniest person ever. " I'm so sorry that I laughed, it's just that I was about to ask you the same question. Im 28 years old, how about you?" I gasped! I was scared, I was starting to have a thing with a guy that was so incredible but at the same time from the stone age! He looked scared and I could tell that he wasn't going to be pleased with my age. I opened my mouth as the 17 just came out. He looked away and then looked my straight in the eyes and spoke softly, "Does age make a difference to you? I wouldn't want that to come in between what I think we might," he paused and I didn't know if I was flattered or scared of the words to come, "have together.." He said it! I thought about this for a second, and, "No age means nothing to me." The words came out so naturally, as if I was ment to say that my whole life. He put his hand in my waist slowly pulling my against him, and before I knew it we were passionately kissing.
I sat in my bed for about 4 hours trying to think about what had just happened! This was ilegal and creepy at the same time, but I couldn't deny that I some how wanted more, more, and the more I thought about it I wanted to run next door again. The next day in school was extra silent, only until lunch time when Jasper (the guy I liked before Kevin came along) came to talk to me. We talked for a long time and I have to say I had a great time. We even met after school for some more time to talk, and when I looked down at my watch I saw that it was 5:30 already! I jumped and picked up my stuff. "I'm so sorry but I really need to go now, see you tomorrow?" Jasper grabbed my hand and whispered into my ear," How about we finish our conversation tomorrow after school in the movies?" I waked a huge smile on and said yes. I'm going to go on a date tomorrow with the first guy I have liked in over 2 years!
As I was running home thinking of an excuse of what to tell Kevin of why I was late I noticed that his car stopped right beside me in the street. "Alena! I was so worried about you! I was rushing to your school to see if I could find you." "Oh I'm so sorry I was finishing a project." My first lie this whole week. "Well hope on sweetie, lets go back to my place." I hoped in the car. SWEETIE, the word just scared me, something wasn't quite right here, I could feel this feeling inside of me telling me to get out. When we pulled over in his house my heart was racing not know what to expect, what was happening between us? I sat myself next to him in his sofa in the living room. The house was extra chilly today, and I was still scared by the sweetie. "So did anything interesting happen today at school, you seem very quiet today." "No, nothing Kevin......ahhh I htink that we need to talk, I mean what is this exactly between us?" He seemed offended by the question but he said in a harsh tone, "Well your my girl now aren't you? You said age didn't matter, and after that kiss, oohhhh that kiss. Well it seemed like you were my girl. Why are you acting so weirdly!" A looked down at my harms, only to see goose pumps all over. As I looked up I was staring at the door, and then my eyes met his. "Whats wrong with you, your acting so mean, and why are you screaming at me?" I looked back at the door, and soon I was about to make the biggest mistake ever, "Look I don't need this, this is clearly wrong and you know it Kevin! Plus tomorrow I have a date with a guy that I really like and to be honest, all I want is to be normal. So if you excuse me I have to leave." My harm started to burn, he was holding it so tight, and then he pulled my against the floor! I was screaming hysterically and pulling away but he held me down so tightly! "You are mine now Alena, MINE ONLY!"
The salt of my tears filled by mouth as his warm body pounded against mine against my will. He shouted out offensive curses as I gave up screaming. "Alena, Alena, Alena.." he whispered my name against my hear. My biggest fear came true, and I couldn't find the escape. After 5 minutes he dragged my week body up stairs to his room, and when I could I bit his harm so harm the metal taste of his boiling hot blood filled my mouth. I stranded free and chased towards his closet, I locked the door behind quickly and started to go through his drawers encountering with a gun. I held the gun facing the door as I herd his trying to pound it open. "YOU ARE MINE!!!!!!" After his horrific scream he nocked down the door and his fired red and green eyes looked at me. I raised the gun and he stopped sprinting toward me. As a bright light lid above me I asked my self should I shoot, or should I save his soul and kill my self?
