RE: STACH Short Story Contest #20: Valentine Special- 199 words, a lovely prize pool, everyone wins!

in #writing7 years ago (edited)

Valentine's Day, the day of love, red roses, red decor, red dresses and all the romance in the air. My very first Valentine official outing didn't turn out as planned. I met Felix online, facebook to be precise. We could chat nonstop for hours. He was a really nice person, or so he portrayed. I started crushing on him, so when he asked to see me, I said yes, without thinking.
This was someone I had never met, asking me to meet him in a hotel. I knew it was a risky game I was about to play, but I threw caution in the wind, blinded by my emotions I went ahead to see him.
It was in a Valentine's Day, I made sure I was looking as beautiful as possible. I knew I was going to have fun that day. Nothing felt better than what I was feeling at that moment. I met him at the lobby, after a sumptuous meal, he begged me to follow him home. I hesitated, but agreed eventually. I never saw it coming, he shattered my trust and respect for him, in the most horrible way.
I'd never forget that night.
