Hailey’s P.O.V
I woke during the night, checking the time on my phone…230am…come on, I am up in a few hours. I looked seeing I had four missed called and three text messages all from Avery. The last one he sent only five minutes ago. I opened it, reading it, well trying
Avery- I am out your home. Let me come in. Or I will knock the door
I swear he better be joking. I decided it would be safer to call him back, make sure he was messing with. He soon answered
“Baby girl. Let me in. I’m lost.” He slurred, laughing
“Where are you?” I asked
“Sitting at your step, outside.” He said
I am gonna kill him. I sneaked out of bed, sneaking downstairs. I was thankful my parents both slept like logs cause I would not fancy explaining this to them. I opened the front door, a body soon falling back, hitting the ground, laughing as he did. Avery? I looked down at him. I could not believe the state he was in. His hair was a mess, his eyes were popping out of his head, he reeked of booze, and his jeans were not buttoned up right…grass stains on the knees. He had a cut head, his hands were all cut too. What the heck? Has he been fighting again?
“Kitten help me up, I am a little drunk.” He laughed
I groaned, shaking my head before reaching down, giving him a hand to get him up on his feet which he could barely manage. I wrapped my arm around him, holding him up the best I could.
“What happened to you? Were you fighting again?” I said annoyed at him
“No…fell…I think. Dunno…oh well.” He chuckled
“How did you even get here? Why didn’t you go home?” I asked
“I think I walked. No go home, wanted to see you since you left.” He said “why did you leave me?” he added pouting
“Cause you were being an ass and ignoring me. I need to get you upstairs before anyone hears you. Keep your mouth shut, try not fall on your ass OK?” I said shaking my head
He nodded, petting his lip at me, giving me his best puppy dog eyes. Yes they were not gonna work cause I was seriously annoyed at him. Both for making me come home myself plus showing up at my house in this state at 230am. He tried his best staying quiet as I got him to my room. It was hard work but I managed. As soon as I was in my room I closed the door, putting a chair against it, throwing Avery down on my bed. I headed into the bathroom grabbing a first aid kid and some water for him. I made my way back over to him
“Can you sit up? I need to clean you up.” I said
He groaned, manging in the end, sitting at the edge of my bed, looking at me, a dorky smile covering his lips. I giggled a little, shaking my head.
“Why did you leave?” he repeated as I clean his head up
“Cause you were being an ass, ignoring me and I needed to get home.” I said concentrating on what I was doing.
He winced in pain as I cleaned him up
“Stop being a baby, it is only a little cut.” I laughed
He rolled his eyes at me, groaning annoyed at me. I shrugged, smirking at him. His hand reached up, landing on my cheek, Avery looking at me…his eyes staring at me hard. I decided to ignore him. I continued getting his face cleaned before pulling away from his touch, getting to work on his hands. There were all cut and bleeding, think he may be right, think he fell, would explain a lot. Why would you wanna get yourself in this state? Anything could have happened to him. Once I cleaned him up I sat next to him, making him turn to face me.
“Do you hate me now?” he said sadly
“What? No of course not. I shouldn’t have expected anything else from you. My own silly fault thinking you cared if I got home safe or not.” I said shrugging it off
I swear I seen slight pain in his eyes when I said that. I was only being honest with him.
“I did plan on getting you home…promise.” He said
He seemed a slighter bit sober now than what he did 20 minutes ago…strange. I looked at him, not sure if I believed him or not, will never find out the truth now anyway, why worry?
“I am gonna get you some coffee…very strong coffee. Stay put and keep your mouth shut my parents are only done the hall OK?” I said
“Ok.” He said looking at the ground, seeming embarrassed now
I headed downstairs quietly, making him a coffee…a very strong one like I said. I grabbed some juice too and a couple of snacks, maybe if he ate it would soak the alcohol up. I had a feeling I wouldn’t be getting back to sleep anytime soon. I creeped back to my room, not getting caught. My parents would be away by 6am cause they have a meeting out of town and they don’t come into my room when they leave that early which for this situation is perfect. I could only imagine the reaction if they caught Avery in my room especially the state he was in. Avery was sitting back against my head bored, staring into space when I arrived back. He looked lost in his own thoughts.
“You OK?” I asked
He looked at me, nodding, faking a smile for me. I knew he was lying. I made my way over, taking the spot next to him, passing him some coffee and something to eat.
“Thanks.” He slurred
A silence filled the room as he drank his coffee. I looked at him, wondering what was going on in that head of his.
“Hailey I’m sowwy.” He pouted “I should never have come here tonight, maybe I should go.” He said
“You aint going anywhere in that state Avery, you are staying right here where I can keep an eye on you.” I said sternly
With that a smirk started creeping up on his lips, his hand landing on my thigh. Here we go again. I sighed, shaking my head before looking at him.
“You do care.” He smirked
“Whatever.” I said rolling my eyes at him
His hand started rubbing my upper thigh, looking at me, his eyes getting darker. I knew exactly what he was thinking.
“Come on kitten, don’t be like that. I said I was sorry, what else do you want from me? I was having fun, maybe you should try it sometime.” He winked
“Fun? You are wasted Avery on both drugs and booze. Why would I wanna get myself into that state?” I said annoyed at him
“Cause it is fun, makes everything a little easier. We can’t all have a great home and parents Hailey. You have both your parents, who work, who look after you. Me? I have a mother that is an alcoholic that is addicted to pain killers. I look after her, she doesn’t look after me. So what if I like to get wasted, it is who I am and you know that. You heard everything about me. Don’t sit there, judging me Hailey.” He hissed
“I am not judging you at all Avery. All I am saying is what appeals to you does not appeal to me. Don’t start being a prick towards me cause you are drunk and high.” I hissed back, a little upset now.
I was crying a little…why was I crying? I shook my head, turning away from him, sitting at the edge of my bed. I heard him sigh, the bed then moving. I had a feeling he was gonna leave, maybe would be better if he did. I soon felt his hands on my hips from behind, his hot breath ticking my neck
“Hailey sorry. I never meant to upset you.” He said
I took a deep breath, looking over my shoulder at him. He was barley an inch away from my face. I felt my breath hitch in my throat as I looked at him. His eyes were searching my face. I closed my eyes over, pulling away from him before I done something stupid. His soft, warm lips fell on the skin of my collar bone, kissing their way down. I shut my eyes tighter, groaning, my head falling back.
“I know you want me Hailey. Why keep denying it?” he mumbled against the skin of my neck where his lips had now found their way too
I was not as put off of the smell of booze the way I was earlier. My body was too weak to think about it. I shook my head, knowing no words would fall from my lips if I tried telling him no.
“Yes you do.” He groaned in my ear, his hands now underneath my tee, stroking the skin of my hips.
He needed to stop because if he doesn’t I will end up giving him what he wants.
“Hailey turn around and look at me. Look me straight in the eye, tell me you don’t want Me.” he whispered against my skin
I couldn’t do that cause I am a terrible lair. If I turn around to face him he will see right through me…see that he is right. I shook my head, not moving a single inch. He pulled away from me, my body feeling cold…lonely all of a sudden. I think he has maybe gave up which works out better for me. How wrong of me to think that. Avery soon appeared in front of me, standing between my legs. His shirt now off. When did that happen? I swallowed hard at the sight of him. I whimpered as I eye his toned body…a beautiful, sexy, muscular body. I gripped onto the bedding next to me cause if I never I would reach out for him and I don’t want to do that. I finally managed to look at his face. I found Avery standing there, his famous smirk on his face. I could feel my face getting warmer by the second.
“I am gonna kiss you now.” He said, stepping closer to me
“No.” I breathed out
“Yes.” He said
He was now leaning down, his face inching closer to mine, meaning his lips were inching closer to mine. I tried keeping it together but all that disappeared when his lips fell over me. I let out a loud whimper, his lips brushing mine. Avery’s hands fell on my hips, laying me down on the bed, him following me. I know I should push him away, I can’t. My back soon hit the mattress, Avery’s body falling over his mine, his lips crashing against mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck, his holding my waist, deepening the kiss. I moaned into the kiss, Avery doing the same. I felt his warm tongue run over my bottom lip before gently tugging it between his teeth. I groaned, opening my mouth, Avery pushing his tongue into my mouth, falling against mine. I wrapped my legs around his hips, Avery pressing himself against me as I did. I have never felt this weak in my entire life. I let my fingers trace the muscles of his back, Avery groaning under my touch. One of Avery’s hands found their way to my thigh, gripping it tightly…the other one sliding further under my top, his fingertips tracing my stomach. All of a sudden I snapped out of it…what am I doing?
“Stop.” I said, pushing him off me
“Whatever Hailey.” He said turning away from me
I lay there, my breathing heavy, my heart racing and felt a few stray tears fall down my cheeks. I can’t believe I done that. If I never stopped when I did I knew I would have went further and that is not who I am. I am not that kind of girl and I can’t make him think I am. I have never felt as stupid in my life. I shifted, sliding under the covers, turning the opposite way, my back to him. Not another word was spoken and soon his breathing got uneven, telling me he had fell asleep. I closed my eyes over, not being able to fight sleep anymore. I don’t know how I am gonna face him tomorrow after that.
