Taken

~Chapter Four~ Realization

Alex's POV

The face I saw in the mirror didn't look like me. My eyes were red and puffy with dried tears on my cheeks. Memories for last night came flooding back into my head. He rapped me. He stole my innocence away, the only thing I had left. A large hand snaked around my waist causing me to flinch. Ezra placed his face in my neck and started to kiss softly. Tears started to flow out of my eyes and hit my chest. I let out small whimpers causing Ezra to pull away from me and turn me around to face him.

"Why is such a beautiful face crying my star?" he asked and I could see real concern in his eyes.

"I have to go," I pushed him away running out of the bathroom and entering closet. Locking the door behind me, I slumped on the floor bring my knees to my chest. I let the tears flow out of my eyes. How could he act like nothing happened? A soft knock was heard from the door. I just sat there watching the door hoping nothing would happen to me again. The doorknob slowly started jiggle and you could hear a click from the other side. The next thing I knew Ezra was walking in with a pair of keys in his hand. I moved back as fast as I could before my back hit the wall. He leaned down and placed his hand on my face and began to wipe my tears away.

"We need to talk Alex," he said before placing himself on the ground and crossing his legs. "I am so sorry for what happened last night. I wanted to wait til you were ready, but something came over me and I couldn't stop myself. Of course I regretted it the moment it was over. To see you crying yourself to sleep broke my heart," tears started to form in his eyes. I got on my knees and moved over to him and wiped his tears away with my thumbs. For some reason my heart hurt for him. I wrapped my arms around his chest and sat him his lap giving him a hug. He hesitated before wrapping his arms around me tightly. "I should be the one trying to comfort you not you comforting me my star," I looked up at him to see a glimmer of love in his eyes. "How about today we just in the living room today and watch some movies?" I justed nodded at him. I felt him pick me up and walking out of the closet. We made it to the living room and he placed me on the couch before placing a fluffy blanket over me. He sat down next to me with another blanket over him. I looked over at him to see the man that raped me but I comforted him about.

What is happening to me? Why would comfort a man that I was scared of? He took the thing I knew I could give to someone I loved. I knew nothing about this man besides that he is a crazy man that took me. This man looked like he could break someone in half in one try and he wanted to make me love him. He has already cuffed me to a bed and raped me. I looked down at my lap and began playing with my fingers thinking about what I would be doing right now back at home.

I was laying on my bed with Lake next to me laughing her ass off about something that at school. I began to laugh with her, not even knowing what I was laughing about.

"Why are we even laughing right now?" I asked her in between giggles.

"Well during chemistry, we started a project and I was working with Marcus and right as he lit the burner, it burned his fucking eyebrows off," she said causing her to laugh even harder.

"That's not even funny Lake," smacking my hand on her forearm. She looked at me with shook on her face.

"Well just image it this way, now when I look at him I am going to die knowing her burnt his eyebrows off Alex," she told me while sitting up and looking right at me. I don't know how this girl could find that shit so funny even when it was about her own boyfriend.

I was pulled out of my thoughts by a large arm being placed around my shoulder. I realised that I was back in his living room with a blanket on top of me and what looked like a scary movie playing on the T.V.. I looked over to see Ezra looking at me with a small smile on his face as he pulled me into him and looked back at the movie. I don't know what this is going to lead to but I know that one day I will be out of here or maybe I will never be able to leave this man's tight hold he has on me.
