Alex is lying on his back on the floor by his bed while a completely naked Cheryl tries to ride him, and I swear, breathing becomes difficult.
Adam’s head swings my way, anger flashing in his eyes, but then his eyes widen when he sees me. Missy, on her hands and knees with her ass in the air and his body behind her, gasps at me, saying, “Do you mind?!” as she turns her head to face me.
“Holly…” she chokes with shock, and I shake my head as my tears fall before I quickly turn around and rush towards the stairs, their shouts for me to come back echoing, but I ignore them.
***
Alex groans again as Cheryl repeats, “Come on, baby, get hard,” and I flinch, my past hitting me hard in the chest.
***
“You wouldn’t fucking give it to me, Holly!” he shouts, “It wasn’t fucking cheating!”
***
Bile rises, and I try not to choke as giggles from children echo, and I blink, then blink again as Alex moans, “Holly,” and Cheryl snaps, “No, not Holly!”
Oh god…
My breathing intensifies, my body trembling and I squeeze my eyes again, my head not able to comprehend what is reality and what is the past.
***
“You loved me, you gave me your virginity, you know I wasn’t cheating!” he claims as he picks up speed, and I flinch again.
***
“Come on, I want another baby, then I’ll get your goddamn cut!” Cheryl snaps gaining my attention and I come back, and I see what is going on and anger hits me as my eyes go to the metal pole in the corner of Alex’s bedroom as breathing becomes difficult and I try to separate what I went through with Adam to what is happening right now.
Why on earth has he got...?
Alex’s groans pause my thinking, and I quickly rush and grab it while Cheryl is occupied, assaulting my boyfriend.
***
He growls, “You’re fucking mine!”
***
I blink, trying to forget the horrible day that changed my life, and I rush over to an unsuspecting Cheryl, and without thinking, I swing the pole hard over her head with all my strength, and she grunts before her naked body falls off Alex onto the floor with a loud thump, and I breathe heavy as I hear, “What the fuck?!”
I don’t turn to look, instead I eye Cheryl’s body, blood pouring from her head, her eyes wide, lifeless and everything goes cold as everything hits me hard to what I have just done in order to save my man.
Oh god, no…
“Where are the kids?” I choke out to Ace, and I try to breathe through my nausea as I throw the metal pole onto the floor like it burned me.
What did I just do?
***
“If I can’t have you, then no one can.”
***
The memory of Adam's sneer as he drove towards the large tree hits me making me flinch as Ace mutters, “In the common room, I came to see what was taking you so long,” before he shouts, “Pres!”and I take a shaky step back, my eyes on Cheryl’s dead body as several footsteps echo, followed by curses.
“What the…” I hear Stone before Ice snaps, “Fuck!”
