BEcause of your black heart

Chapter 10

“I hate him! I hate him!” I yelled, lying on my bed crying, Erik sitting to my right and Meg sitting on her bed.

“Oh Amelia, you don’t hate him.” Meg said. “Raoul is like your brother. He’s just acting that way because he doesn’t think anyone is good enough for you.”

“You weren’t there Meg.” I said to her. “He’s horrible! I never knew he could be so cruel! I didn’t know anyone could!”

Erik sat rubbing my back as I cried into his shoulder. Meg looked at Erik and smiled lightly. She took his hand.

“Come with me Erik.” She said to him. “We’ll be right back Amelia.” The two of them walked out into the hall and closed the door. I listened to then through the door.

“I’m so sorry about everything that happened today Erik.” She said to him.

“It’s quite alright Megan, it wasn’t your fault.”

“Yes, but Amelia is so hurt. Maybe you should go and talk to Raoul?”

“No.”

“But I think if he knows you’re really in love with her that maybe he’ll listen.”

There was a long pause before he said anything else.

“Alright, where is he?”
