"Zaion you always find some shit to argue about just leave me alone I'm about to go to class!" I said walking downstairs as he stormed down right behind me. " You not going to class until we talk this out I ain't even talk to her you keep listening to everybody around you." He said.

"You already cheated on me and then your going to continue to talk to her afterwards and you think I'm dumb?" I turned around and looked at him like he was stupid.

"Why you keep saying I cheated on you? I didn't even do nothing with her she was just all up on me." Zaion tried to move me around from leaving but I tried to push him away. "So when did we just let random people just push all up on us." I turned around and folded my arms we were only 4 months into our relationship and he was already lying and cheating I knew this was too good to be true.

"Baby don't fucking push me away, I ain't cheat on you bro." Zaion kept moving in front of me trying to block me again. "Move damn I have to go." I said pushing him out of the way. That angered Zaion as he threw me up against the wall while his hand was around my neck.

"What I tell you about that pushing Eve." He said as his hand strengthened around my neck. I tried to move him away by pushing his stomach but he took his other hand and pushed mine away. "Let m-me go." I struggled under his hold. He finally took his hand off my neck and pushed me back. "Don't ever accuse me of cheating again bitch!" He took his left hand and slapped me across my face. I immediately held my cheeks as the tears came rushing down.

"Wh-why would you do that?" I fell on my knees holding my face. I never seen him like this before even if we always argued he wouldn't hit me though only push me. "You accused me and pushed me baby." He walked over to me trying to touch me but I pushed him away from me. "Get away from me!" I yelled at him. He then let out a deep chuckle and dragged me by the ponytail I had in to the other side of the room.

"I will beat the shit out of you Eve, stop trying me." He looked me straight in my eyes and all I saw was a different man and evil one. I was scared for my life but I wasn't going to put myself in danger anymore I just needed to leave.  "O-ok just please don't hurt me anymore." I said flinching from his every move.

"Oh promise me I won't hurt you unless you don't try to hurt me and will be good baby girl, now get the fuck out my house and I want you back here at 3:00pm ok." He said to me. I nodded and got up limping a bit and grabbed my bag and keys off the counter. Thankfully I had my makeup in my purse to cover this up before I got to class.

...

"Fuck you got these sun shades on foh." Judas' thick southern accent came out as he walked beside me. I pushed his hand away as he tried to take them off. "Judas stop, they're cute that's why I put them on." I said to him. Micah and Dylan were right behind us walking surprisingly we didn't get kicked out of school for the fight but you could tell the tension was very real since the girls were still there.

"So y'all where we bout to eat at?" Dylan let out when she finally lifted her head up to talk.

"Def bout to hit up Chick fil a." Judas said. I rolled my eyes at him and Dylan agreed with me. " Nah let's go to Zaxbys." Micah said. We all turned at her with a disgusted look on our faces. "All places in the world and you choose Zaxbys over some damn Chick fil a." Dylan looked at her and said.

"You already getting a little chubby girl lets get you a salad or something." I mushed her shoulder a little bit and she just stared at me with a mug.

"I can't wait to kill you all." Micah mumbled under her breath and sped her pace of walking until she was out the door before all of us. "Someone's done shitted in they diaper." Judas laughed at Micah leaving.

"Uhm don't be laughing at my best friend like that or you'll get fucked up like them girls too." Dylan checked him and then walked out the door after.

"Ya'll females stay stunting, Eve can you please take the shades off though I wanna see that pretty face." Judas said to me as he tried to take them off me. I was hesitant to even let him see me like this but knowing him he would've started something and I didn't want him to get hurt or in between us. "No Judas I like them on now let's just go before I get irritated ." I said.

"Alright bet but it better not be no bruise you hiding under there." He took my hand and we walked out together. "Only if you knew." I whispered to myself.

We left out the University catching up with Dylan and Micah in the car. I guess we were going to hit up one of these restaurants since we're all out with each other. Judas was much new to the group but i knew him before everybody else did since all our classes were together. There's not much to say about him at least yet but he treats me better than my own boyfriend I can tell you that.

"Y'all two raggedy wig looking girls ready?" Judas looked back at them while they were busy on their phones as he hopped in the front passenger seat.

"You ready for me to give you an early vasectomy without your permission?" Eve fake smiled at him and he instantly turned around.

"Haha yeah so funny." He snuck his tongue out at her and then flicked her off with his middle finger while she did the same. They were already fighting like siblings and so I knew how this friendship was going to turn out.

It took me about 10 minutes to get to the little diner place. Our university didn't have much around it but this was our go to place after classes. I had my first fight here and after that I always kept coming back.

"Get y'all ass out my damn car so we can eat." I motioned them and they all laughed getting out.

"Ok mom." They said in unison.

We all walked in the place it was filled with a bunch of university kids, very loud and crowded but much diverse. They sold mostly soul food which is why a lot of people came here, I mean you could never go wrong with some soul.

"Hey loves would you like a table for 4 or are we taking out?" The old lady's thick strong southern accent came out as she spoke. We nodded for the table and she motioned us down the aile. "Here you go and I'll get back to you when your ready to order." She said and then walked away.

We took a seat and I sat down right beside Judas. He brushed his hand against mine accidentally butI quickly moved mine away when my mind went straight to Xaion's and I looked at my watch making sure we would be done before three.

"What you in a rush foh lil ma?" Judas chuckled as he noticed how fast I was moving. I looked at him and blushed a bit then turned my face away so he couldn't see me. "I'm not I just have somewhere to be around 3:00pm." I told him. He nodded.

I couldn't lie and say I didn't have an attraction for Judas because he was like sent from heaven above when it came to his looks but I was with Zaion even though our relationship was definitely on the verge of ending especially after he hit me. I was afraid that I was about to enter an abusive relationship I can't get out of.

...

3:00pm.

"Judas leave me alone." I said trying to mush him as he laid in between my legs. I kept saying to myself this was a friendly relationship but it started to become something different as the day passed on. I wasn't even supposed to be at his house right now. "You've been having them shades on all day man I'm tryna see them lil chubby cheeks." He said as we fought each other's hands but he won taking my glasses off. I quickly put my hands up to cover my face so he wouldn't see the big bruise.

"Give me my glasses!" I kept my hands over my eyes yelling at him to give them back but he would never budge.

"Girl you look like a clown right now what you trying to hide from me?" Judas said as he gently took my hands away from my eyes. He stood there for a minute until he got up calmly and walked over to his dresser pulling it open. It was a gun I saw. He placed it in his pocket and then grabbed my keys. "Come on." He motioned for me to get up.

"No Judas please it's no anything concerning with you just let me handle it, I'm ok." I said.

"Eve I'm not playing with you, let's go." He said in a demanding voice as his jaw clenched. I watch the gains pop out of his arms. He was serious.

"I'm not going to let you kill him!" I pushed the gun out of his hands. He held me back against the wall as the gun fell.

"Fuck you defending a nigga who beat your ass foh, Eve that's not smart." He told me as he looked me straight in the eyes. His whole demeanor had changed and he became overprotective.

My eyes started to tear up as my mind flashed of me getting hit brutally by Xaion. Judas softened his grip around me and took me off the wall. He brung my small figure into his and embraced me as I cried on his chest.

"ou pa merite ti bebe sa a." Judas whispered to me in his native language, he was haitian. It was his way of speaking code to me so only stuff would be between me and him.

"Li fè mal." I said to him out loud but he put his finger on my mouth to shush me. He put his head against mine rocking me back and forth as the tears fell upon my cheeks and his. Judas experienced his mother go through an abusive relationship and she passed away from it that's why it pained him so much. I didn't wanna die in the hands of Zaion, that's not how I wanted to exit this world.

"I guess you could say we were both hurting."
