~November 23rd; 4:33 am ~
My eyes flash open to the pounding against the door, my skin sticky with blood, my body littered with cuts as I sit with my back to the wall. I flinch at the thought of Marco standing on the other side of the door, so close. I stand with my aching body and make my way as fast as I can to the bathroom. I grunt in pain when I finally meet the sink, evading looking into the mirror. I felt ashamed of not only my relapse but my violation, it was all whizzing by too slowly, I had too much to think about and very little to distract me.
I run the shower, carefully stripping from my clothes and getting inside of it. The water burnt, sinking inside the cuts that covered me, I shut my eyes and grit my teeth as the water rushed over me. I look down at the floor, why did he do that to me? Had I led him on? Did I anger him? What could I have done? I avoided him the best I could but he bound me here, in this room like his little prisoner, leaving meals at my door.
I hadn't eaten since Vincenzo left, the pain had left when the numbness came and I forgot about it almost completely. My throat was dry almost always from crying it was all too much. It stilled through time yet whizzed past me. My head was a war zone of my temptingly delightful thoughts to end it all and what I had done to deserve it all.
I stepped from the shower and with a deep breath, I grabbed the towel and hesitantly opened my bathroom door to reveal a room where Marco sat on the bed watching me contemptibly.
"Waiting for me?" I mutter.
"Were you?" He smirks suggestively.
I laugh humourlessly.
"Marco, please don't.."
I felt a sudden urge to back to the bathroom and stay there until my starvation kills me or until my cuts bleed out so much I lie in my puddle of blood.
At least then I had survived him, it gave him one last dig and my one last breath.
I blink inhaling as I feel the door behind me and Marco over me. I dreaded the next few minutes of torture I had to endure.
He pressed me to the door and I felt his belt come undone as my mind goes blank and I panic, struggling under his hold, the wood cutting into my already broken skin as if I were some porcelain doll to him.
