Being A Michelson

Do You Know Each Other?

Maddie P.O.V

When I heard that voice, everything I have tried to forget comes back — making me feel vulnerable.

"Max"

"Hey, Maddie, how you been? Why didn't you say bye before leaving."

"What are you doing here," I ask in an angry tone.

He grabbed my arms and toked me outside to talk, but I didn't want to chat right now. Now that I think about it, I don't want to talk to him never in my life again.

"Max you're hurting me "

"I ask you a question, Maddie. Why did you leave without telling me."

"Your hurting," I said as I tried to hold my tears anymore.

Leaving Max was not only because he cheated on me with my ex-best friend, but he was also abusive toward me. Everything changed once we go to High School. At first, it started with him getting jealous when I would talk to guy friends or when we all would hangout out of school. One time when we were at school, it was lunch, and most of the group that I used to hang out weren't at school since they ditch and didn't tell me because knowing them, my brother would get pissed if I ever thought of ditching. So the only person that didn't leave was Jake since we had a class together before lunch we decide to go campus to eat lunch. We took his car and left to get Mexican food and guess who was there? Max was right there getting high with friends, and since he was smoking, he thought I was cheating on him. He saw us and grabbed my arm and pull me to his car, and drove home. Once we got to my house, Max started to yell at me, saying that I was a w***e; that's why I dint want to have s*x with because I lost my V card to Jake. I was about to explain everything when he tried to hit me, but thanks to my brother, he block the hit from me, and then he got Max hand twisted and made him leave.

After the fight, my brothers were telling me to leave him, but since I was blindly in love, I didn't as we were getting closer to the senior year he told me what to do, how to dress, and who I can and can't hang out with. While I was his obedient little girl, he was f*****g my best friend. Once I caught him a red hand, I decided I had enough, and I told my brothers I willing to leave with them to New York than staying in California. Being in New York made me realize how he manipulated me to be a different person who made me realized it was time for a new begging. 

"Answer me damm it," he said angrily

That's when I came back to reality

"IM NOT TELLING YOU ANYTHING YOU BASTARD!" I yelled at him

" You little b***h, don't raise your voice at me. You are still MINE."

"I was never yours to begging with, You f**k my life once, but I'm not going to let you do it twice."

With that, he got so angry he was about to slap me, but then some caught his hand. And I couldn't believe who it was. Daniel. Wait hold up, does he know Max? But how? Max, never talk about Daniel?

"Back off, Man. I'm not going to warn you again" said Danny angry

He pulled me behind him. But Max got my arm and pulled me toward him.

"Questo non e finite Bambina," he whispers in my ear.

And with that, he left, but I couldn't control my tears, think how did this happen? Daniel, all of a sudden, hugged me.

"Andra Tutto bene Principessa" he whispers in my ear.

Next thing I know, I being carry into his car. As we were driving, I felt him staring at me, but I didn't want to say anything about it. Eventually, I fell asleep in his car for a long time because I felt Danny carried.

I was about to tell him to let me walk, but I just pretended to be still asleep. He took me straight to what I believe in a guest room, and I just laid there. He came back after like five minutes with a shirt and some boxer, and he left. After I changed went down the stairs and saw Dany in a pair of gray sweats and a white shirt in the kitchen. As I walk down, I could help to stare at his decorations, and I look around to see a beautiful condo. Its primary colors where black. White, marble, and a few gold items. He had a big open floor, with an open kitchen that every girl would have dreamed of having. But the most thing that catches my eye was the big windows that had the beautiful skyline of New York City. I guess he saw me admiring the view the most when he called me back to reality.

"Maddie" 

"Yes Daniel"

" I don't know if its the right time to ask this, but How do you know Max? It's fine if you don't want to answer me right now." 

"Sorry, Danny, but I'm just not ready to share that information with you yet. I tried to forget my pass for a long time, that I can bear myself to go through that pain again."

"It's okay I understand, Do you want anything to eat?"

"What do you have in mine "

"We can order some sushi or Italian food."

"Lascia mangiare cibo Italiano. (Lets eat Italian)"

"I never thought you could speak Italian mi amore."

"Well, I can speak 7 languages, Italiano, English, Espanol, Portuguese, Greek, Chinese, and French."

He went to go get his phone to order the food while I was on the couch looking for a show to watch, but then we decide to watch Netflix. I decided to watch "You." The food took about 30 min to get here, and we are both watching the series while eating, but I guess I fell asleep because I woke up in the same guest room tuck in. 

I went downstairs to check if he was there but he wasnt. So I decide to change back to my dress from last night and left. But before I left, I wrote a note thanking him for last night and went home.
