1949 Pt2 - Sofia's Deciever
TW//Assault
Winter had settled in Copperdale, but despite the cold Hezekiah and Anabelle often enjoyed the occasional sneakaway. "We should get back."
Kye groaned, "Let them cook their own dinner."
"You're supposed to be preparing for your dad talk with Mathias."
Hezekiah and Anabelle returned from the lakeside gazebo. Mathias joined them for dinner and then he and Kye had a talk.
"Aren't you cold?"
"No. How did the talk go?"
"Eh, Just the typical dad stuff. I just told him how amazing you were and now we're solid."
"What 'typical dad stuff'?"
"You know like, 'what are your intentions with my daughter?' 'I got a shotgun in the closet if you hurt her.' That kind of stuff."
"He doesn't have a shotgun."
"They usually don't."
"But he said yes?" Mathias shrugged, "I guess we're official now"
He took a step toward her and her heart raced as he planted his hand on the fence near her head, "You know, a lot of teens nowadays start woohooing when they go steady."
She twirled her butterfly ring with her thumb, "I...still want to wait. I like just making out with you."
He leaned closer, "Yeah? I like that too but usually those things are meant to lead to other things." He put his hand on her face tilting her face up towards him.
She pushed him away. "Are you crazy? My parents bedroom is right there. We could get caught!"
"Sounds thrilling."
He placed his hand on her hip and pulled her closer. "Relax, your parents were playing a game with Stefan. Your dad trusts me now...why don't you."
"I trust you...I'm just scared."
"Of what?"
"Won't it hurt?"
"Only for a moment and then," He pressed closer, "pure ecstasy."
He pushed her back against the fence again and for a moment she stopped breathing. He smirked, "You're a fool to think you don't want this."
"I do want it...I'm just not ready yet"
"It's not healthy to keep it all pent up." He leaned in closer and she lost her train of thought
Suddenly he stepped away from her. "Don't worry, I'd never actually do anything with your parents right here. Your dad might not have a gun but I've seen him angry, I'd rather not have that chat."
Sofia nodded.
"How bout we go to the Carnaval again this weekend.
"Okay."
That weekend Kye and Anabelle sat out on the water watching the lights from the Carnaval. "I'm surprised you said yes."
"Me too. But she's your daughter. She'll only be more determined if we say no."
"She'll have her heart broken."
"Yep and we'll be here when she does."
She wrapped her arm around him and looked into his eyes. "When'd you get so wise?"
"If I recall, It was about the time you shattered my heart into a million pieces."
"Which time."
"Hmm I forget. Sofia's a Mizrahi, a broken heart won't destroy her and she won't be alone"
Hezekiah was right about one thing, Sofia was strong but that night would set her on a path that would test her Mizrahi resiliance.
"I'm so glad we're finally getting to come here"
"Is there something specific you wanted to try?"
"The ferris wheel! I heard the view is stunning"
Mathias laughed. "Sure if you would rather look at the scenery."
"What do you mean?"
"The view may be stunning but that's not generally why people ride the ferris wheel."
She looked at him blankly.
"You know...private cart no way to get interrupted."
"Oh! I knew that!"
He bought the tickets at the booth and they headed onto the Ferris Wheel. The view was stunning and the makeout session didn't disappoint. Mathias was feeling pretty good by the time they got off the ride.
"Shall we get some ice cream next?"
"Yes please!"
They got some ice cream and Sofia insisted they ride the Love Carts but Mathias was bored. "Maybe you'll like the Haunted House, that's exciting." "I hate Haunted Houses. Let's skip it." "Well what else do you want to do?" "I know a nice private place around the corner."
He took her down an alley behind the Haunted House to a table tucked back near some sheds. "I'm so nervous."
"You don't have to be nervous. Like I said, it'll only hurt for a moment."
She nodded and touched his chest tentatively. "What if I'm not good at it?"
"Then we keep practicing." She nodded and finally got up the courage to lay her hand on his chest. "That's it, now move lower."
She hesitated and leaned forward. "Can I kiss you instead?"
He sighed, "Fine. But you better not chicken out on me."
"I won't. I promise."
He pulled her closer and she dipped down to kiss his neck. "What are you doing?"
"Kissing you."
"I don't know what that is but it's not kissing."
She tried harder but it just made him angry,
"Just stop you're ruining the mood."
"I'm sorry, I told you I'm nervous."
He tilted her head for a proper kiss but Sofia already felt humiliated. Her eye caught the ring on her finger and her father's words came back. She deserved better than this. She pictured her dad walking her down the aisle and knew Mathias couldn't be at the end
"We should stop"
Mathias flipped her onto the table angrily. "What do you mean stop? You promised you wouldn't chicken out. I don't like broken promises, Sofia"
"I'm sorry, I...I just don't think-"
"What? Do I not fit your perfect image?"
"You're scaring me"
"And you're really pissing me off"
Sofia tried to push him off her but he grabbed her and yanked her closer. "No, Sofia. Enough of your games. I'm not playing anymore. I've waited way to long to have you bail on my now."
"Mathias wait. Stop. Please."
But he was already tearing at her clothes.
"I leapt through so many hoops for you, even put on a show for your dad and it still wasn't enough for you. Well tonight I'm getting what's due me."
Terror paralyzed her, her mind shutting down as he kissed her brutally and then moved lower. She didn't remember much after that.
