Chapter 97
"My parents, Jake.. this isn't what I promised them." Kelly says still sitting on her bed trying to contain the pain she's feeling between her legs. Ashley face palms herself "really Kelly?.. I've always told you it's your life Kelly.. you alone get to make your own decisions.." Ashley says to Kelly
"Ash.. what I've done would affect so many people.. my Mom, Dad, Jake our families--" Kelly says "Kelly.. what about you?.. what about what you want Kelly?.. when last did you get a call from your fiance? And if your family really cares about you they'll know what you really want" Ashley says
Kelly doesn't say anything "I'm just.. I'm just so confused Ash.. this is not what my parents taught me.. I have become so different after coming to college.. this isn't me" Kelly says to Ashley "or maybe this is the real you Kelly.. maybe you were just living the kind of life and identity your parents wanted you to live and have but coming here you've actually let your real self show.. Kelly.. learn to live your life and do what you want to do as an adult.. take charge of your life Kelly" Ashley says to Kelly and Kelly nods her head "okay.. I will.. I'm an adult and I shouldn't let anyone influence me" Kelly says
"Yes Kellydon't. Love who you want to love, make your own decisions and live your life the way you want to" Ashley says to Kelly and Kelly heaves a sigh of relief "yes" Kelly says and Ashley nods her head in approval at Kelly
Kelly leaves for literature class still limping slightly. On her way to class she bumps into Adrian. "Kelly.." he says to her but she tries to ignore him and walk past him she doesn't walk away for too long before his arm grabs her wrist and pulls her to an empty class.
She gasps as he pushed her gently against the wall. "Kelly.. we need to talk" he says to her "Adrian.." she says to him "why did you just walk away yesterday Kelly?.. didn't.. didn't you like it?" He asks her referring to what they did yesterday.
"Adrian.. I liked it very much but.. I have Jake.." Kelly says quietly "Jake?.. Kelly really?" Adrian says to her in a harsh voice "yes Adrian.. that's the truth.. Jake is my fiance.. I'm supposed to be with him" Kelly says and Adrian scoffs nodding his head with his tongue in his cheek
"Really?.. but you let me in Kelly.." Adrian says and Kelly bites her lips "I have.. a commitment with Jake Adrian.. I can't just put that past me" Kelly says
"Oh really.. now Kelly I need honest answers from you when I ask you these questions" Adrian says to Kelly
"And.. what is it?" Kelly asks as Adrian still hovers over her. He caresses her cheek with his hands and brushes her lips with his thumb and she shivers at his touch
"Does Jake make you feel the way I do?.." he asks her but she doesn't say anything he decides to put his hand inside her shirt and she gasps
