Bambi POV.
“Colin,” I tell my only real friend, other than Eliot, I only got Colin, and I trust Colin more than I do Eliot, and he should know about love right?
“Yes?” he asks me, I didn’t know what my mixed feeling toward Ryker was, I just didn’t know what to think about him, I loved the gifts and the attention, but I didn’t know if that was it.
“What do you know about love?” I ask him, making him blush, he blushes just as much as me, and sometimes even more.
“It’s not what you think, don’t believe the rumours,” he says and I looked at him confused, what does he mean? Is there rumours going around about me?
“What do you mean?” I ask him confused.
“The rumours about me and that girl at school, there’s nothing between us, she just said that because I carried her books up after they fell,” Colin says blushing red.
“A girl thinks you love her?” I ask him with a small chuckle, that’s a good introduction without me actually telling him what’s up, I don’t want to tell him what’s really going on, I want to feel normal, I want to feel like I’m still a teenager, just when I’m around Colin at least.
“Yes, and I don’t like yuk!” he says making me chuckle.
“You gay or something Colin? Something you want to tell me?” I ask him with a straight voice just in case he really wants to come out now.
“No, I’m not Bambi, you know that,” he says and I nod my head yes, fine, I can get back to laughing.
“How do you know you love someone for real then?” I ask him, kind of joking, kind of being serious.
“Well you just know, they’ll treat you well, carry your books, walk you home, you know?” he says, but I didn’t really know, I wished mom could talk to me and tell me more about this, but she can’t.
“Thanks, bro,” I say, maybe it was love, Eliot says, he loves me, he only treats me differently from others, I don’t know if it’s love or not, but sure.
“You welcome, you feeling in love or something?” he asks me, and I make an icky face, nope I’m not, I don’t think I’m, but if I’m, I wouldn’t really tell him, well not right away, not until I make sure I am.
“I thought so,” Colin says laying on my bed, ready to sleep, I need him tonight, to be near me, to hold me as well.
“Hug me?” I ask him laying in bed with him.
“Always,” he says, I don’t know what I would do if I ever lose him.
The next day, and the day after, they were all the same, I’d go to work, Ryker would get me to stay with him, he’d give me chocolate or some other food, I’m always offered fancy food, I don’t always enjoy the food, but I eat it.
“You’re starting to get fussy with food,” he says, I wasn’t fussy, I was just starting to develop my sense of taste, and I started to learn what I like and don’t.
“I’m not fussy, but chocolate is superior,” I say with a chuckle, he laughed too, and he offered me chocolate again, I took the bar from his hand, but he didn’t let the bar go.
“My chocolate,” I say with a big pout.
“If you want it, you gotta give me a kiss,” he says, my face went fully red, a kiss? I got closer and kissed him on the cheek.
“Oh, no that won’t do, you gotta give me a real kiss,” he says, his lips pursing out, and him pointing toward his mouth. I got closer and landed one quick peck on his lips, he smiled at the kiss and pulled my head from the back. He kissed my lips with force, his mouth taking dominance over me and my body, his tongue went against my closed mouth, demanding entrance, but I was too scared, I kept pulling back.
“So yummy, I can’t wait to properly kiss you,” he says, making me go even redder, this wasn’t how I imagined the kiss would be, not my first kiss, I always imagined the kiss to be one filled with love and care, not being forced on me, and hurting my lips.
I didn’t talk, he gave me my chocolate now, and I decided to eat my chocolate, avoid his eye gaze and keep to myself busy, I won’t cry, I won’t cry, I’ll try not to cry the best I could.
“Red, we need you,” Eliot says coming into the room and calling me, I was just happy about getting out of the room, to get away from him.
“What do you need from me?” I ask him, wiping my tears away, it’s okay, I’m okay, I told myself.
“Just wanted to check on you two lovebirds, how are things going?” he asks me, I wanted to tell him we’re not love birds, not even near it.
“We’re not,” I say blushing red as Eliot pushed me to a random bedroom.
“Clean this up, top to bottom it’s your job for the rest of the day,” he says, I nodded, I knew I’ll have to work and clean again, I can’t stay hidden in Ryker’s office.
I began cleaning, the room wasn’t very dirty, just clothes thrown around, a bed needing to be fixed and sheets to change, I had to scrub the floors and dust the whole room, not the worse day at work for me, I was near done, most of my day was spent in his office.
The door opened and closed, it’s time to get out of the room, the owner is back, the house has more than one master, and although Ryker likes me, and keeps me around to entertain him, the rest, they won’t care if I’m friendly with another master or not, they prefer us maids to not be heard or seen.
I got up and was ready to leave, keeping my head down, trying to avoid the master or mistress’s look, but the master of the room locked the door, locking us in, I looked up and saw it was Ryker, I’m in his room.
“I’m sorry Sir, I’m leaving,” I say getting near the door but he held me by the shoulders, throwing me against the wall.
“Leave where? I want my kiss,” he says, and our mouths meet in a more brutal and savage way than he did earlier.
