Louis
I really hated my mom right now, how could she send me off to my dad. The last thing I needed was staying at my dad's. He didn't care about me and if he finds out that I'm using drugs, he is probably going to send me off to rehab in some military program. He doesn't even know what happened in the first place. The whole reason I'm in this state is because of the things I have done to girls. I used them; I used them like there were nothing more then products to use for my own needs. I know it's not only my fault but if I had picked different friends, maybe I wouldn't be the way I was now.
I know exactly where I was when my mom got the phone Cal. I was hitting up some chick in the local pub and was doing just fine. I even talked her into sleeping with me. I was already walking her to some cheap ass motel when my mom started to call me. Not just one call, no she kept calling until I picked up.
*Flashback*
'WHAT?' I yelled into my phone. She was quiet, which was weird for her, as she was never quiet. 'Louis, I need you to come home immediately.' As if I was going to come home just because she wanted me to. 'I'm a bit busy right now mom.' I whispered, this was getting embarrassing. "YOU NEED TO COME HOME NOW!" she yelled angry at me. Okay something was definitely up. "All right damn, I'm coming." I apologized to the girl and ran home.
I stopped once I spotted my house, as there was a police car in front of my house, this couldn't be good. Had someone died or was there something wrong with my mother? I ran home and from the moment I entered the house I just knew it had something to do with me. It was the way my mother looked at me. She looked so disappointed. "Are you Louis?" one of the officers asked me, I nodded and took a seat. "Is it true that you had sexual intercourse with a girl called Lucy?" I swallowed, as I indeed had sex with her. "Yes I did, why?" he was writing stuff down this wasn't good.
"Is it true that you took pictures of her?" I didn't but my friends did. "Yes we did but we never used them, I swear!" I never used them, I don't know what my friends did with them to be honest, I never asked. "Then I have to inform you that they have been spread all over the Internet and as you probably know, this is illegal as she is still underage." I knew that but so was I at the time. "I was still 17 when I had sex with her." I mumbled this. "We know this. It's just that the reason we are here is to tell you that Lucy has committed suicide."
What did he just say. That couldn't be right, why would she do that?" "What do I have to do with this, I haven't even spoken to her for at least 8 months." I was really confused, it wasn't my fault that those pictures were all over the web. "We are talking to you because you are the one on the pictures." He was right about that but again I didn't even had those pictures.
"How can I help because honestly I really don't know who put those pictures online or why they did it but I can tell you the names of the guy who took them if that's of any help." The officer nodded so I told the name of the guy who took the pictures. I thought that was the end of it but sadly it wasn't.
"Louis, I think it's time for a wake up call and that's why we are going to see the girl and I want you to apologize to not only her but also her parents." She said what now? There was no way in hell I could do that. Her father probably wants to kill me. "You have no choice unless you want to go to jail for a few weeks" Damn she was really serious about this. I didn't want to go to jail.
"Shit, okay I will go see her and apologize." I muttered. My mom didn't waste any time as she grabbed her coat, letting the officer out and grabbing me by the arm. "I really hope this will make you change your ways son." Never in her life had she spoken to me like that. When we arrived at the hospital I began to feel scared, my mom noticed that, but she didn't comfort me like she would always do, she just stepped out of the car and waited for me.
"We don't have all day Louis." She urged me. I sighed and got out of the car. I walked just a few steps behind her. We were escorted to the second floor, as we turned a corner I was met by someone's fist, this was probably the father. "YOU SICK SON OF A BASTARD, HOW DARE YOU ABUSE MY DAUGHTER!" the next punch I could avoid but my sight was limited to one single eye. "sir I urge you to calm down." The nurse was talking to Lucy's dad, which gave me the opportunity to walk past him to see Lucy.
I walked into her room and was shocked at the way she looked. She had bandages around her arms and she had bruises in her neck from I think a rope. This was really messed up, never had I thought that something like this could happen if you messed around with a girl, even if she wanted it herself in the beginning. I walked to her bedside and saw that she was awake. She had been watching me from the moment I entered the room, she didn't say anything though. I took a seat next to her bed and stared back at her, wondering why she wouldn't say anything.
"Lucy, I'm so, so sorry, I never meant for this to happen." That's when I broke down. It was all fun and games at the time being and never had I thought about what could've happen with girls when they felt abused. She never responded while I was being there. Her father had calmed down and asked me to come into the hallway. I stood there with my mom and Lucy's dad and they were all waiting for me to say something.
"Sir, I'm so sorry. I never wanted this to happen but I swear I had nothing to do with those pictures. I never made them and I never kept them, I swear but I have given the name of the guy who took them." He nodded and thanked me. My mom seemed happy with me as we walked back to the car. When we got home I just couldn't live with what I had done, so that when I started taking drugs. At first I only smoked pot but after a while that just didn't work anymore, so I started to take coke. My mom never found out though that is until she had to pick me up from the street one night.
She went absolutely crazy. She searched my whole room for drugs and threw it all away. I never had a clue because I was still passed out in the front yard but by the time I came by she had already made up her mind. "I'm sending you to your father, you will be leaving tomorrow." I wanted to throw a fit but that was no use. I know my mom really well and when she say stuff like that, you'd best just listen.
ยท End Flashback*
So here I was landing in Paris, France, I didn't know what she had told my father but it couldn't be the fact that I was an addict because then my father wouldn't have let me stay with him, he would've just send me off to rehab.
I had to get my bags, when out off nowhere I walked straight into someone. I hadn't even paid attention to my surrounding because I was having a difficult time, as I had now been sober for 24 hours. I just kept walking. I really didn't feel like apologizing, I just needed my first hit for the day, when suddenly I heard someone yell at me. "Excuse me?" it sounded female and a bit out of breath so I stopped and turned around. I was beyond annoyed when I saw this girl sitting in front of me.
She was checking me out for one and you could see the regret on her face for even talking to me. "What?!" I couldn't help but sound annoyed, she inhaled a deep breath and got up from the floor before she said something. I couldn't help but notice that underneath all that black she was actually stunning. She had brown hair, tied up in a messy bun, she had piercing green eyes even if the looked a bit dull. She was slim but had curves at the right places. She didn't wear any make-up, which was rare these days, and to be total honest I did fancy her a bit.
"You should apologize for knocking me over!" she was actually pissed at me. This could be fun, that's when I noticed that I was shaking. Shit I had to get out of here. "Why would I, you are the one who wasn't paying attention." I shot back rather rude, that ticked her off even more. Her eyes were blazing by now. "do all guys have to act like assholes!" she yelled at me, damn she got issues. I just turned around and walked away.
Can't deal with that shit right now, I need to get something in my system before I meet up with my dad. Drugs it was all I could think about as I walked out of the airport. I know I had just 30 minutes before my dad was here but that had to be enough to get some drugs around here, right?
Aright don't judge me but I bought some painkillers, which I smashed so I could sniff it up. It actually helped a bit. It wasn't coke but it had to do until I could my fix in Valras Plage. "Louis, it's good to see you son." I heard from behind me and there stood my dad, waiting impatiently for me to get into the car.
"Hi dad." I took a seat and I expected my dad to say nothing at all but he actually closed his laptop. "So here are the rules. 1. Clean your own room. 2. If you stay out, please let me know. 3. Stay away from sticky situation, we don't want a repeat of what happened to that poor girl. 4. Be nice to my neighbours." Those were reasonable rules I guess.
I nodded and looked outside. I was beginning to get tired, that what you get when you use painkillers as drugs I guess. I closed my eyes and woke up when we pulled up in my dad's driveway. It was already late so I just went to bed immediately.
When I got out of bed I felt really bad. I needed something in my system so I went downstairs to find my dad on the patio eating his breakfast. He had set a plate for me and he even smiled at me when I got outside. I walked up to the table but something grabbed my attention. I looked up at the house of my neighbours and someone was actually looking through a binocular, that's when I recognized the girl. What are the odds, it was that same girl I had knocked over. I found it funny when I saw her dive away from the window, she must realize that I had already seen her. I took a seat whilst shaking my head slightly.
I felt her presence so I just flipped her off again.
