Chapter Seven
I chug down the last of the cold soda and throw the can across the kitchen. Jessie hasnât stopped crying for the past two fucking hours. This isnât how it was supposed to happen. I donât know what else to do and Iâm filled with an anxiety I have never felt before. I canât just let her go now. I scratch my itchy scalp because I havenât been able to stop sweating since we have been home. A panic courses through my body, knowing that if she doesnât come around I will have to kill her. I canât see the life leave her eyes like mommaâs did. I love this woman, why canât she realize that I am the one for her. We are meant to be together, why canât she see that?
Panic turns to anger at the thought that she would be one of those superficial bitches that hate me because I look different. I donât have the body chiseled with muscle that they all want. I donât have a head full of dark hair and tattoos covering my skin. Iâm just me, Charlie, a fat, itchy, balding man with a big heart. My throat constricts with the tears I fight back. She will love me, or I will kill her. I push back my feelings and stomp over to my bedroom. Itâs showtime.
I stalk in front of her as she lifts her head to look at me. Someone may look at her and think she doesnât look too hot herself right about now. I wonder if those men would want her right now, with her puffy red eyes and snot dripping down her face. She has no clue that I still think she looks beautiful. âWhy are you still crying?â I ask, keeping my voice stern. She shakes her head, âAre you fucking stupid? Because you have me hanging in your shitty fucking bedroom, you stupid fat piece of shit. You really think I want to be here?â Her words hurt me but I donât show it. âYouâre angry, and thatâs ok. You will see that Iâm doing this for us.â She laughs and shakes her head, still crying as more snot bubbles out of her nose. âYouâre fucking insane! There is no us, I would never fucking be with a guy like you.â she yells at me.
I canât stop myself from rushing into her hanging body. I wrap my hand around her throat, squeezing just enough to get her attention, pulling her body into mine. I bring my mouth close to her ear, âA guy like me? You really think anyone else would want you right now, look at you! Youâre disgusting.â I yell in her ear. I run my lips down the side of her chin trailing kisses, tasting her salty tears. âNo, but a guy like me loves you just the way you are Jessie. I think youâre beautiful right now, hanging in our room. Every fucking part of you is art to me, you have no idea what a guy like me would do for you.
