I just sat there drenched in blood. I couldn't believe what had just happened. I can't believe he just did this to me.
Mateo was the most handsome guy I've ever met, so masculine, arrogant, nonchalant, and mean. Oh! I forgot to add that he was the vice president's son. He barely came to lectures, and everyone treated him like a mini deity and he was such a bully. Omg!! The way girls flocked around him at our college was insane, and trust me, he used them to the fullest.
Then there is Ava (me), who got into the college through a scholarship, and even if I was uncertain about anything, it excluded my beauty and intelligence, I was like the golden child of my family. Anyone who saw me couldn't hold their comment on how beautiful I looked. I came from a humble background. My mom had a retail store which she runs with my dad.
Tears just couldn't stop flowing from my eyes, it was a cold Sunday night, my dormitory was so eerily quiet, l had just finished my bedtime routine when I heard a loud bang on my door.
" Ava!!, open this door." He screamed.
Then I ran to the door to check who was banging on my door, you wouldn't believe who was on the door.
"Matheo, what are you doing here?" I whispered. He smelled of strong alcohol but omgg!! He was still as handsome and masculine as ever but what he did next took me by surprise. He forced my door open, entered, and locked the door.
Then he held me by my waist and gently started kissing me on my face and then he whispered, "Baby, I can't wait any more."
"Matheo we just had this conversation, I'm not ready for anything intimate," I said, while I placed my hands on his chest trying to push him away.
"You know you mean the world to me'' he said, still pulling me closer.
"Matheo, I'm not r–r-r-ready," I said.
Before I could even complete my sentence he had already pushed me on my bed, lay on me, and then he started removing my pajamas quickly.
"Matheo, stoppppp," I stuttered
"I love you, baby, I love you" he said underneath his voice
"Please, I'm begging you s–stop," I wailed.
He quickly used his hands to cover my mouth very firmly and then used his other hand to pull down my underwear and then forcefully penetrated.
All the stories I had heard of sexual assault were flooding my mind, and I told myself, "This could not happen to me."
I tried to push him off but he held me firm on the bed and started giving me hard strokes. I gasped for air and then I blacked out.
When I woke up Matheo was nowhere to be found, I just sat there feeling confused, betrayed, and dirty. Before coming to college, I made a promise to myself that I wouldn't have any sexual relationship with anyone until I'm sure of what we have together. Then there is Matheo, with whom I've always had a love and hate relationship with since I got into college, his masculinity and facial features takes my breath away but regardless of this, i've always been acting indifferent with him because i hated the way he bullied and oppressed people but Matheo on the other hand doesn't let me breath, he stalks me everywhere and always sends me the most expensive gifts you could ever imagine, he does not let any guy from our college talk to me and then he sends his minions to follow me everywhere.
He stays off campus in the most beautiful mansion you could ever imagine with his best friend Sam and some of his minions. I also stay off campus too but in a dorm shared with my friend Amanda. I met Amanda when I had just recently gained admission and went for my registration, she was already in her second year the same year with Matheo, so she assisted me with my registrations and then offered to share her dorm with me while we split the rent, so according to me then, it was the best financial decision i could make as a fresher so i quickly accepted so that was how we became friends.
There was never a shortage of girls at Matheo's house, so I couldn't understand his obsession with me. He made sure I didn't lack anything and he kept asking me to be his girlfriend but I didn't want to, not because I didn't find him attractive but because I didn't like his lifestyle.
I just sat there on my bed, trying to recollect what just happened. Amanda, who never leaves the dorm, suddenly had somewhere she wanted to go to and the most shocking part was that she said she was going to spend the night there. I just lay there and stared blankly at the ceiling. There were so many things I couldn't process
but my biggest question was how he could do this to me. Even though I didn't reciprocate his feelings, I knew he loved me, everyone around me could tell he loved me and even though he bullied others, he would never let even a fly harm me. He would call me every day to check up on me, when I didn't feel good he would move mountains to make sure I'm okay.
We've had conversations about us and I told him what's preventing me from being in a relationship with him was his attitude and how I can't be in a relationship with someone who sleeps around and then he would tell me how he doesn't care about them, how they were the ones forcing themselves on him. Amidst all the girls he sleeps with he never had an open or lovey-dovey relationship with anyone at school or online. Everyone knew he had been chasing me for the longest, he even calls me his girlfriend, his wife even though I haven't accepted yet to be his girlfriend.
So, I just rounded my thoughts and cried and cried, then eventually I fell asleep, then the next day I received the biggest shock of my life...
