Monday. I wake up to get ready for school. The boys and I haven't spoken since the party on Saturday. They've been texting me all weekend but I haven't had the energy to reply.
I haven't even had the energy to talk to my mom since that day. Because what happened in that bathroom after Mattia left, is something I will not detail.
I don't wanna relive that. I feel my eyes heat up.
It's okay, you're strong.
But it really hurts y'know? Because who was that guy and why did he do that to me? I've seen him at my school but I haven't ever spoken to him. Never really seen him around.
I hope I never see him again.
Anyways, I gotta get ready. I don't care how I look so I just put on black sweats, black and white vans, and a red t-shirt. And I walk out the door.
-
I'm walking in the hallways when someone grabs my arm.
Why does everyone keep doing that
I pull away instantly and turn to see it was only Mattia. "Sorry" I say.
He looks at me and doesn't say anything. He looks upset? Worried? Mad? I have no idea. He just stares at me.
"What?"
He pulls me in for a hug. "How are you?" He says as my face is buried in his neck. I feel a tear fall down my cheek.
"Not good" I say as I cry. My hands grasp onto his t-shirt fabric and we just stand there in the middle of the hallway as I'm crying.
"Why? I'm here for you. You can tell me anything"
I shake my head. "It's hard to explain to you" I say.
"At the party you stayed in the bathroom for a while. And then you just.. left. Why?"
I look up at him. I know my eyes are red. They're reflecting onto his. "This guy at your party dragged me in there and he-" I shake my head as I look down.
Mattia raises my chin softly and furrows his brows. "What did he do?"
"He uhm-"I clear my throat. "He did what you think he did"
"He assaulted you?" I can see tears forming in his eyes. Why is he sad over me?
I nod.
"Who is that bastard?" He asks
"I don't know who he is"
"When you see him you let me know. I won't let anyone touch you again" he says as he looks into my eyes . Before I can say anything he kisses my forehead and pulls me in for a hug.
This is the Mattia I remember. The one who was there for me. The one who promised he would always care about me. If only he knew how much I really loved him.
It's not just some high school crush. I don't wanna lose him. Not again.
