WILLOW

Garrett wasn’t real. Tristan was Mark’s son. The same Mark who’d taken my virginity and self-esteem with him three years ago. The person I’d stayed up late speaking to, the person I’d willingly submitted to and exposed myself to, was Tristan Callahan.

Three days had passed, and I still hadn’t been able to wrap my head around everything. It had been enough of a blow discovering that Mark had a wife, but to find out that he had a son my age…

A son that had lured me in and had his way with me.

Distracted by money, desperation, and the promise of a simple job meant I’d been the easiest target imaginable. My stomach tore itself apart as I thought about all the moments I’d been vulnerable with Tristan. Not just the pictures, but some of the stories I’d shared about my childhood, how I’d confided in him about my difficulties making friends, my sexual kinks. Hell, I’d sent him fucking voice notes of me singing. I didn’t sing for anyone.

The idea of Tristan walking around with all that knowledge made me sick with shame. I’d willingly let him walk me home after he’d been the one to attack me, meanwhile he knew he’d left a permanent mark on my body.

I couldn’t care about my lectures or classes, or even care much about food at this point. My ghostly hands found their way towards the little tin box I kept tucked away in my underwear drawer that hadn’t been touched for a while. Overtaken by a trancelike desire to match the pain in my chest, I took out a razor, sat on the floor and got to work.

Tears mixed with blood, but I made sure to keep the red lines shallow enough that I wouldn’t need to go to the hospital. I’d expected relief to flood my body as the razor pinched my skin, but only guilt remained. It was my punishment for thinking that my past actions wouldn’t catch up to me.

While I’d been yearning for my lover to come back, Tristan had lost a father- the man who was supposed to protect him. Even though he’d hurt me in more ways than I could imagine, Tristan’s actions made sense.

Weakness claimed my body and bound me to my bed. I don’t know how long I lay there, but it was long enough for me to turn the hatred from myself towards the person who had started it all.

Mark.

He should be the one dealing with all this. Not me, not even Tristan. But he was off living his life while we had to deal with all the bullshit he’d put us through.

Claire’s words echoed around my head.

Abuse

You were a kid

He took advantage of you.

I’d wanted, no, needed, to be in control, even if it was an illusion. I hadn’t wanted to believe that I was vulnerable or stupid enough to be taken advantage of. Tristan’s callous words and vile actions had sent me down a dark hole that I knew I didn’t deserve to be trapped in.
