Sadly for this chapter the stuff that happened to the main character is based on a true story.

TW: MENTIONS OF ABUSE, ABUSE

Emily's pov:

I sat down by the window of my room just thinking. I wonder if she's happy with him. I wonder does she treat her right. I wonder does he treat her the way he used to treat me. Does he hit her?

I hear footsteps outside of my room, so I wipe my tears and go in my closet to act like I've been looking for clothes this whole time.

She walks into my room "You ready?" My sister asks "Yeah almost just let me find my shoes" I say as I pull out a random bodysuit

We're supposed to go meet up with my friends for brunch but I'm not really in the mood anymore but I said I would go so I'll go. I put everything on, and I fixed my hair and grabbed my car keys of my dresser and made my way to the car.

Starting it up I waited for her to come out the house as she came out and sat in the car I notice a slight bruise on her arm, It looks like she tried to cover it up with makeup.

I look at her seeing her on her phone not even realizing that i could still see the bruise.

"Morgan, How did you get that bruise?" I ask as I start to the place we're all gonna meet at

She looks at me "I was flat ironing my hair and I burned myself." she says as she stares at the side of my head

"Your lying." I say as I stop at the red light and turn my head to stare at her

"Does he hit you?" I ask her already knowing the answer but not wanting to believe that it was true

I continue to drive as she started speaking,  " Yeah... He does sometimes , only when he's drinking and when I do something that upsets him. I deserve it sometimes tho." She says

I pull up in the parking lot of the restaurant and turn to look at her "It's not your fault trust me, it wasn't mine and it isn't yours." I said as I wipe the tear that came out her eye

"I'm sorry. So sorry." I whispered as she started to sob in my chest, I shut my eyes tightly as I tried to forget what happened that night

Sighing I kissed her forehead and wiped the loose tear that fell out my eye and cleared my throat. By that time she was already off my chest , her tears were gone and she had smile on her face... a fake smile.

Same smile I used to put on every single time.

We got out the car and made our way inside the restaurant seeing all my friends. "Hey guys." I said as I smile at them and wait for my sister to slide inside the booth so I sit on the outside.

We start chatting and laughing , catching up on our life outside of stripping.

I turned my head seeing him standing there smile at me.

I feel like I can't breath.

Flashback:
"Where were you?" He asks me as he sits down in the chair staring at me

I start laughing and smiling at him as I throw my heels on the floor in front of the door. I start stumbling toward him and lay down on the couch.

"I said where were you?"  He asks me again but this time it felt like he was angry

"Out"  I Respond as I close my eyes feeling the liquor flow through my body

I hear the chair scrape on the floor and then I feel a sting on my cheek.

My eyes shoot open and he drags me up of the couch and push me on the floor and I hit the side of my head on the table.

I felt the tears blur my eyes as he hit me and screamed at me. "IM NOT GONNA ASK YOU AGAIN WHERE THE FUCK WERE YOU?"

I start to sob as I try and block my face "I'm sorry , I'm sorry, I went out to a bar and I got carried away please I'm sorry." I choke out as Noah punches me in my stomach

End of flashback

I blinked my eyes and look around I don't see him any where across from our table I see Lorenzo at a table with a bunch of men, they're all dressed casual so I'm assuming it isn't anything business.

He's looking at me as I look at him he nods toward the door outside. I look at my friends "I'll be back guys I just forgot something in my car." I say to them as I get up

I make my way to the door but he already beat me to standing there holding it open for me, I give him a small smile and thank him.

We walk to his car and sit inside. "What was that about?" He asks me as he looks at me

"What was what about?"

"The look of horror on your face , the look of fear." He tells me as he looks into my eyes switching from my left eye to my right eye.

"Is that why you made me come out here?" I ask him as I turn to face the window

"Yes."

"It was nothing , I though I saw someone but I didn't
." I reply to him

"Who was it?" He asks me "Who did you see that made you look so scared?"

Wow, till this day he still scares me

"Noah, I thought I saw Noah." I tell him

"The guy from the boutique?" He asks

I turn and face him again and nod my head as I feel the tears blur my eyes.

I take a deep breath and suck them back in and open the car door to get out. He follows me most likely understanding I don't wanna talk about it anymore.

I stop at the door in front of the restaurant and face him. "Maybe, I'll tell you another time." I say as I give his hand a light squeeze and let it go

I walk back into the restaurant and sit back down next to my sister only this time there's another girl sitting at the table.

I look at her and it's the girl form the boutique the one that was with Noah.

Not again
