“Leave me alone, Ky.”
“Never, princess.Nunca. Yo no soy quien tu piensas. Pero ahora los vas a entender, preciosa.”Her eyes widen.
I will never leave you alone. I’m not who you think I am, but you will understand, beautiful.
My mouth breaks into a smile. We all have secrets, Rubi. We all have our pain. We try to hide it, but sooner or later, it claims us.
She doesn’t know that I know Spanish. Just one of the many things she doesn’t know about me. I have been patient. I’ve been waiting.
I hear her intake of breath when she spies someone behind me. I turn and I chuckle.
“Patrick…” she calls out as he is passing by. “What happened?”
He spots me and his eyes go wide. “Hey, Patty. Nice makeup. Next time, find another girl to show your drawings to,” I mock, giving him a wink.
Rubi shoves me from behind, but it’s like being pushed by a five-year-old. “Did you do that? Did you hit him?”
I turn around and fiddle with the hem of her hoodie, and she tries to step back, but the lockers behind her prevents her escape as I cage her in. My eyes make a slow ascent up her body, and I meet her eyes. “Did you think I would let that slide? You in a car alone with a guy who wants to fuck you. Did you think it was a coincidence when you were dropped off at the party, you ended up in that room with me?” Her lips part and her breathing picks up. She’s piecing together my intentions.
I lean in and I rasp against her cheek, “I didn’t fuck them after you ran out. I was too busy sucking your cum off my fingers. In case you were wondering, you taste sweet.” Her eyes go wide. Her tongue keeps peeking out as she moistens her lips. Lips I want wrapped around my cock. “No te pongas nerviosa, princessa. I wouldn’t hurt you, but I will make you scream.”
I can hear Tyler shout down the hallway. “Get away from her, Ky.”
“Gotta go, princess. I need your little brother to feel like he can protect you. I think he knows he doesn’t stand a chance, but I’ll see you tonight.” I walk away, giving her a knowing smile. “Same time. Same place. Oh, and I left you something in your closet, and don’t worry, I fed Hope for you.”
Rubi
WHAT THE FUCKwas that? Tyler reaches me just as Ky walks away. It was him. The whole time I thought I was crazy. I thought I needed mental help because I was sleepwalking. I know he has been coming into my room but who knows for how long. I’m trying to rack my brain to see when I first noticed things appearing. He must have heard me crying in the closet. He was the one carrying me and placing me in the bed. I want to say it’s romantic, but it’s more disturbing, actually.
“What did he say to you, Rubi. Did he hurt you?”
I shake my head. “He was apologizing.” Not the whole truth, but he did say he was sorry. I don’t think he was behind the prank at the party, but he feels responsible because he could have prevented it. “Why would you think he would hurt me?
Tyler runs his hands over his face and his expression looks torn. “Ky is unstable sometimes. He does things.”
“What kind of things?”
I can see Tyler visibly swallow. There is something missing. Something he doesn’t want to say.
“I can’t tell you that. All I can say is that you need to stay away from him, Rubi. Ky can be dangerous. I regret the day I vented to him about you showing up. I don’t know what the fuck is wrong with him, but he has taken it to a whole other level. He has always been cool, but since you…it’s like something woke up the psycho.”
It doesn’t make sense. The letter he left on my nightstand. It doesn’t add up completely, but then he was talking to me in Spanish. There is something I’m missing. There is more to Ky than he is letting on. Tyler is making it seem like Ky is fucked up. That he is dangerous to be around. I have seen fucked up, but there are countless levels of crazy when people you love are involved.
I spot Patrick coming out of the bathroom and his eyes widen when he sees me. I grimace at the shiner that is on his left eye. Jesus, Ky.
“I-I need to stay away from you, Rubi. He will kill me if I t-touch you.”
“He is not going to kill you. I’m sorry, but I need to ask you how did he know that we went somewhere? How did he find out, Patrick?”
“He knows a lot of things. He isn’t who you think he is, Rubi. Stay away from him. He is obsessed with you. He made that perfectly clear when he gave me this,” he says pointing at the shiner on his eyes and continues, “ he says that you are his and that no one is to touch you.”
“What do you mean, Patrick? He hates me.”
Patrick shakes his head, and his good eye is trained on my face. “Obsession can be confused with hate. He doesn’t hate you. It’s more powerful than that. He controls things, and Ky always gets what he wants.”
“What do you think he wants, Patrick?”
“He wants…you, Rubi. He wants you and he is never going to stop.”
