Betrayed By Everyone, Loved By Four
Betrayed By Everyone Loved by Four Chapter 62

"Can you call the others?"

Did I really just ask that?

"You... want me to call them?" Leo asked, and I nodded. "Are you sure?"

"I just.. I.. need to feel safe. Safer. I.. just need all of you. Just for tonight. Please." I whispered into him.

"Do you want me to tell them what happened?" Leo asked.

"I don't know." I said honestly.

They would figure it out anyways, and it's not like I'm trying to keep it a secret from them. I'm just afraid of what they'll do when they find out. Leo beat James up pretty badly from what I could hear. The last thing I want is for one of them to go to jail over me. "I'll tell them after they get here. That way you don't have to worry about them going after James."

It's like Leo can read my mind I swear. "Okay." I said.

"I can't promise you that it'll be just for the night Millie." Leo told me honestly. "I can tell them to give you space, but I can't make any promises. You have no idea how much we've all missed you." He said. "I..." I trailed off.

I'm not sure what to say.

In all honesty, I don't want to be away from them anymore. But I'm not ready to just let them all back in my life. Hearing Leo tell me they miss me.. It did things to my heart.

"Do you still want me to call them?" Leo asked.

I took a deep breath.

"Yes." I breathed out.

"Okay. How about you shower while I call them? I'm going to have to tell Caleb something as well princess." Leo warned me.

"Just tell him that I'm here, and we will explain later." I said.

Leo helped me to his shower. He turned the water on for me, and let me know he would be back with some clothes. Then he left me alone.

I stared at myself in the mirror. My lip is split worse than any time Milinda had ever hit me. There's even bruising around the corner of my lip going up my cheek. I sighed, and turned away. Stripping out of my clothes I got in the shower. Leo has an unreasonably large bathroom. Why does one teenage boy need all this shower space? I bet all of us could fit- No, bad Millie.

There was a knock to the door.

"Come in." I called out.

I saw through the glass door that it's Leo. He walked in, and set down a pile of clothes on the counter. I was surprised that he didn't look in my direction at all. "Here are some clothes for you princess. I'm gonna go call the guys now." He said before leaving.

I sighed heavily. These past few weeks have been hard. Today was even worse. I still can't believe that James almost..

Tears filled my eyes.

How am I supposed to go to school, and see him every day? I'm not strong enough for all of this. I can't do it. Maybe I can see about finishing school with some online classes, or something. Sighing again, I finished my shower quickly. My mind is going a mile a minute, and all I want to do is lay down. I'd be lying if I said that I'm not excited to see the guys too.

It's just one night of letting them make me feel better. I'm using them this time. Then, things can go back to the way they have been. Even if I have to ignore them all over again.

I dressed in the black sweatpants, and white T-shirt of Lila's, that Leo got for me. Drying my hair some, I searched for a brush. I was actually surprised to find one.

Once I was done, I took a deep breath, and walked out of the bathroom.

Leo is sitting on his bed. His eyes snapped up to me when I walked out. He stood up, and motioned for me to get comfortable on his bed.

"The guys should be here any min-"

Leo was interrupted by his door being thrown open. I had just crawled into his bed to sit in the corner. Both Leo, and I snapped our eyes to the door. Atlas is standing in the doorway panting. Milo and Oliver crashed into him from behind almost immediately. All three of them just stared at me. My bottom lip started to tremble.

How can it hurt to not have them touch me? How is that even possible? Especially after what just happened to me. I should be replused by any touch.

So, why am I almost in tears just waiting to be wrapped up in them?

"Well, what are all of you waiting for?" Leo asked them. "She called you here to comfort her. Get to it." He ordered.

Oliver was the first to react. He pushed the other two out of his way. Oliver crawled up the bed from the bottom of it. As soon as he reached me he paused. Oliver brought his hand up to my face, and gently brushed my lips with his fingers. I winced slightly when he touched my bruise. A small whimper left my lips.

Oliver wrapped his arms around me, and I melted into him. I'm crying agian, of f*****g course. I really needed this though.

I felt other arms wrap around me. I'm surrounded in comfort. I feel safe. I never want to leave this.

"I don't forgive any of you." I seethed through my tears.

"Okay." Milo whispered.

"A-and this ends tomorrow." I stated.

"Okay." This time it was Leo.

"I-I-I mean it. I-I.. don't want any of you anymore." I said as I clung onto one of them.

"Alright babygirl." Atlas said.

"Stop calling me those stupid names." I whispered.

"No." Leo said.

"I hate all of you so much." I sobbed.

"That's okay angel. You can hate us right now." Oliver said.

I sobbed again.

"Thank you." I whispered.

"You never have to thank us cupcake. We will always be here for you." Milo said.

The guys held me while I sobbed. My eyes are squeezed shut tightly. I just wanted to be lost in them, and I finally am. I clung to whoever I could reach. My back is leaned against someone, maybe more than one body. We are like one giant hug in the middle of Leo's bed. After some time my body started to relax. My sobs died down. Tears still streamed down my face though. Hiccups started to wrack my body.

Eventually the bodies surrounding me started to pull away. Panic rushed through me. I'm not ready to leave this cacoon yet.

My eyes flew open, and my hands reached out to grip onto them.

"Relax angel, I'm just going to get you some water." Oliver told me.

He's the only one moving from me, but it's still too much. I need them all right here. I gripped onto Oliver's shirt, so that he can't make it much further.

"No I *hiccup* need you *hiccup* here *hiccup*" I said.

"Babgirl, you need a dri-" Atlas tried, but I stopped him.

"I *hiccup* don't want *hiccup* a drink *hiccup*" I whined out.

I sound like a five year old throwing a tantrum. I'm not sure what's wrong with me honestly. I've been ignoring these guys for weeks. They chea.. well they lied to me. I wanted nothing to do with them yesterday.

So, why am I clinging onto every single one of them like my life depends on it now?

It's like I can't breathe without all of them surrounding me right now. Not one of them is allowed to leave me. Not right now.

It might just be the trauma of almost being raped, but I need them.

"What happened to her?" Milo asked Leo.

I looked up to see that I'm sitting in Milo's lap. Atlas is wrapped around our right, Leo to our left. Oliver was in front of me. He still is, he's just half off the bed with my hand gripping his green T-shirt.

Leo looked down at me. "I didn't get a chance to tell them yet, obviously."

I looked at all of them again.

"You don't have to talk about it Millie. I can take them in the other room an-" Leo started to say.

"No!" I jumped at my own shout. "Please. I.. I don't want to be alone. Please don't leave me." I begged.

"I can tell them later then." Leo said. "Or, you can tell us all now." He suggested. "I know it's probably hard to talk about it princess, but I barely understand what happened. I only heard you screaming, and came running." "Screaming?" Atlas asked. "What the fuck happened?"

I sighed, and looked at Oliver.

"You have to stay." I demanded.

Oliver nodded, and moved back in front of me. Finally, I was wrapped up in them again. I stared off at the wall as I spoke.

"James asked to talk to me. I didn't want to at first, but then Leo walked in. I knew you were going to try to talk to me, and I just couldn't. So, I told James we could talk. When he offered to take me home I only agreed so that Leo wouldn't wait for me." I winced. "That was my first mistake."

I took in a shakey breath. "We walked to the park, but it was late, and no one was around. He cornered me, and..." I trailed off as a sob tore through me. "He told me that if I could give it to four other guys I could give it to him too." I seethed through my tears. "I told him no, to stop, that I didn't want this." I squeezed my eyes shut.

"All he did was hit me. He.. He was so close to.. to.." I couldn't even finish. "Leo got there just in time." I finished.

Everyone was quiet for a moment. I could feel them shift slightly. Then I heard Leo speak.

"I beat the shit out of him. He could barely stand by the time we left."

"James is just asking for us to kill him." Atlas stated dangerously.

I pulled back from Oliver to whip my head at Atlas.

"You can't do anything. None of you. I don't want you guys going to jail." I stated.

"Then you need to tell the police." Oliver countered.

"I.. can't. They won't believe me. I have no proof other than Leo, who broke it up. All that would do, is out our relationship, and get Leo thrown in jail for assault." I stated.

"You should let us talk with our fathers." Milo suggested.

I shook my head. "No."

"Millie-" Oliver said my name so softly.

"I'll think about it okay?" I said.

"Okay." Leo said. "That's fine."

We were all silent for a few minutes. I leaned back into Milo. Atlas threw an arm over me, and Leo did the same. Oliver grabbed my legs, and pulled them into his lap.

It was a peaceful moment, until more thoughts started to swarm my head.

"How am I supposed to go to school now?"

I didn't realize I had said it out loud, until it was too late.

"I already told you, you will never be alone Millie. He will not touch you." Leo said.

"I don't know how I'm supposed to even see his face again.." I whispered.

"You have at least one of us in every class." Oliver offered. "You won't ever be alone. We can walk you to your other classes, just like we used to."

I scoffed. "I told you this was just for tonight." I said.

"And I told you that they weren't going to listen to that." Leo said.

"Oliver's new girlfriend Evie, and Lila can walk me to, and from classes." I said.

"Evie is not my girlfriend." Oliver stated.

"I told you that she's gay princess." Leo said.

"Yeah, well, you guys say a lot of things that turn out to be lies." I stated.

I pushed on Milo's chest until he was laying back. Then I rolled onto my side on top of him. My head rested on his chest, and I shut my eyes.

"None of you better stop touching me." I ordered.

"Fine, princess, but morning will come. Our talk is not over yet." Leo whispered.

I scoffed, but it came out more as a breath. I'm just so tired. All I want to do is snuggle with them, and sleep until I can't wake up. Leo's words echoed in my head as I drifted off to sleep.
