“See you tonight?” Ben asks.

Ben is in some of my classes, and we got to talking today. He is like me in many ways. He has a wild side and likes to get himself into trouble. We didn’t get to talking in a classroom, but at the principal’s office. He was there because he got into a fight with some douche jock. I was there because I talked back to one of my teachers. After our trip to the office, we sat together in the next class, and now we are making plans for tonight.

I smirk. “Hell y

  • Healing With My Bad Boy    Chapter Sixteen - I Will Make The Most Of It

    Gracie Ryland and I are on our way home. I dread it. My father will be so mad because I have barely been home the last couple of days, meaning I haven’t been there to clean and cook his meals like the slave he thinks I am. I have not been there for him to take his anger out on. I am sure he won’t think twice about making up for the last couple of days.“Gracie, do you want to come to mine? I don’t want you going home and being alone with him.” Ryland sighs.I shake my head. “I need to go home. The longer I am away, the worse it will be.”Ryland has not let go of my hand since we got into the car. I am still trying to come to terms with the fact that I told him everything I did. I have never told anyone. After knowing him for only a short time, I shared my entire life story with him. There has been something that has been bonding me to him since day one, and after this, I can see that more clearly. I have a trust in him that I have never had in anyone. It scares me, but there must be

  • Healing With My Bad Boy    Chapter Fifteen - I knew Something Wasn't Right

    Possible Trigger Warnings: Talk of self-harm and suicideRyland I wake up with Gracie still sound asleep next to me, snoring lightly. She really is beautiful. I take in her soft features for a moment, and for the first time, I notice the freckles that run over the arch of her nose. Cute! I chuckle at the way she is lying. Gracie has one leg out of the bed, the covers were off her, and the tee she is wearing had crawled up, showing her panties.My laughing comes to a halt when my eyes fall on the top of her thighs and freeze. It is there I see them. They are covered in both cuts and scars, some older and some still look fresh. She hurts herself. My heart breaks for her. I know she is going through a lot, but I never imagined she would be doing that to herself. It explains why she always covers up. It is why she didn’t come swimming with everyone that night. She is hiding what she has been doing to herself. I wonder if Lola knows. I have a feeling she doesn’t, though. Something tells

  • Healing With My Bad Boy    Chapter Fourteen - I Want To Stay Away For As Long As Possible

    GracieRyland and have been sitting in the diner for the last couple of hours. We finished our meals over an hour ago. Neither of us seems to be in any rush to leave, so we ordered milkshakes and desserts, too."Gracie, do you want to go home?" he asks.I shake my head and sigh. "No, not really."I want to stay away from home as long as I can. I am safer this way, especially with how drunk I know my dad will be when I do return."Do you want to stay here tonight? We can book into the motel?"I am not sure I want to spend another night with him. Then again, last night was not bad at all.My eyes divert down, and I blush. "Yes.""Okay, we can go by, and hopefully they will have a room for us." He smiles.I return the smiles. "Sounds good."My dad won't even care if I don't come home. Tomorrow, I know he will be mad because the house is still a mess. I can deal with that when the time comes."Well, let's finish up, pay, and we can head over."We finish off what we have left. I go to give

  • Healing With My Bad Boy    Chapter Thirteen - It Shouldn't Be Hard

    Ryland Gracie and I head to hers. She seems nervous suddenly. It seems she is not keen on my going into her house. Why, I don’t know, but I will find out once I get in. She stays silent as she nervously tries the door. It is open. Her dad must have left it unlocked for her.“I am sorry if the place is a mess. My dad isn’t the tidiest person. I wasn’t here last time to clean up.” She whispers.He is a grown-up man; he should be tidying up his mess, not leaving everything for Gracie to do.“It is fine. You don’t need to apologize to me.”Gracie nods and flashes a soft smile at me. We stroll inside. The first thing that catches my eye is all the holes in the walls. Her father clearly has a temper. As long as he doesn’t take it out on her. The second thing to catch my eye is all the empty bottles and cans lying around, too. There are so many of them.“I will sort it later. Let’s go upstairs.” She says, grabbing my arm, pulling me towards the stairs.I don’t mention anything about what I

  • Healing With My Bad Boy    Chapter Twleve - I Expected To Freak Out

    GracieI wake to the sound of an alarm. What the hell? Why is my alarm going off? I don’t need one this morning. I go to reach for my cell to turn it off, but soon realise it isn’t even mine. It makes me more confused until I remember I am not at home and not alone. I am at Ryland’s place, sharing his bed. I honestly thought I would freak out when I woke up, but I am not freaking out at all. I slept better last night than I have in a long time. “Ryland, why do you have an alarm set?” I groan, pushing him. “Because I needed to wake us up before my mom came in.” My heart pounds in my chest, panic taking over me. “I forgot about that. Should I hide in the bathroom or the closet or something?” I ask, looking around for somewhere to hide. “No, she will only come in and check on me for a second. Hide under the covers. “How do you know when she will come in?” “Because she comes in at the same time every morning, which will be in a few minutes, you should get under the covers.” I can’t

  • Healing With My Bad Boy    Chapter Eleven - Better Than I Imagined

    Ryland “Are you certain this is alright?" Gracie asks as we sit in my car outside my house.“Yes, it is fine. My mom will be sleeping. She will check on me before she leaves, so you will need to hide, as I said, but only for a moment.”I understand she's uncomfortable staying at my house, but what options does she have? Sleep outside? I wouldn’t permit that. Given what she mentioned about her father, he probably wouldn’t be pleased if she woke him up at this hour to let her in. We've been sitting outside for the past twenty minutes, and I've been trying to persuade her to come inside. I'm doing my best to stay patient with her, as it appears to be difficult for her. Gracie lets out a loud sigh. “Okay, let’s go inside before I change my mind.”We step out of the car and grab my house keys to get inside. I can feel her nervousness as we walk to my front door. I hold her hand and tell her to stay quiet so we don’t wake my mom. I guide her to my bedroom in the dark, careful to avoid tr

    Gracie I am in my bedroom, hiding. My dad is drunk and in a nasty mood. I am trying to stay out of his way. I already got a slap earlier for no reason.

    Gracie I’m relaxed now, enjoying myself. Having fun isn't always easy, given everything going on in my life. I like how everyone is chilled—no drama. Lola got what she wanted, and Ben follows her around like a lost puppy. It’s cute, though I’ve had enough of their PDA. Thankfully, Ryland hasn’t l
