Used && Abused

Chapter Fifteen

Tanya's POV

My mom and dad is gone. So I'm stuck in the house with my five siblings. All I could think about was where is Breanna. She did promise she'd come help me. I'm over here with Jace in my hands trying to get him to stop crying and yelling for Liliana to give Courtney back her toy. The house was in total chaos.

I know your probably confused with all the different names so let me break it down.

Levi- Male and he's 13 years old.

Camden- Male and he's10 years old

Courtney- Female and she's 6 years old.

Liliana- Female and she's 3 years old

Jace- Male and he's 8 months.

They're all my real siblings. Same mama and daddy. But I'm the oldest and I'm sixteen.

I just got tired of trying to calm them down so I just sat on living room couch and pulled out my phone. Watching Fox12 News I saw something caught my eye on TV. I unlocked my phone, cut off the TV, and looked up the news story. I was in complete and utter disbelief.

I hear a knock at the door then the door bell rung. I lay Jace in his playpen then walk to the door. I look out the peephole and see Breanna. When I open the door she gives me a hug and walk over to pick up Jace when she see him laying down.

Breanna: Hey Pokie.

She rubs her nose against his.

Breanna: Jace. Talk to me Jacey. Hey Baby.

She lay him on her lap and began tickling him. He's just laughing and giggling. Liliana and Courtney stopped fighting. Liliana went on to the next toy. I looked at Breanna and just wondered. She looked at me like she knew what I was looking at her for.

Breanna: You got to want to spend time with them. They need and want your love. Interaction is what they need. Face to face connection.

Me: And how did you know this.

Breanna: Well, my mom is a pediatrician.

Me: I guess. Where you been at lately?

Breanna: No where in particular.

I unlock my phone and pass it to her. She look at the picture of the news story then back at me. She sit Jace back in his playpen and sit on the edge of the couch.

Me: Breanna is that Tyler?

Breanna: Yes.

She's crying now and I'm pretty sure I know why.

Me: And are you the 16 year old female victim.

She shakes her head, get up and walk towards the back of the house. And I'm guessing to my room.

Five minutes later I get up and walk to my room. My door was closed. I open the door and see her laying on my bed, curled up, and sobbing.

Me: Breanna?

Breanna: Tanya, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

Me: For what?

She sit up and scoot to the end of the bed. I sit down right next to her and grab her hand.

Breanna: For not telling you. I was afraid you'd judge me.

Me: Breanna. Its okay. When have I ever judged you?? When have I ever? I never have and I'm not going to start now. So talk to me.

By the time we was she was done with her story we was both in tears. I felt bad for my best friend and my Ride or Die. We talked about how she felt after it happened and how she felt now.

Me: Breanna...

I lean in and just hug her. She just needed to be held. I pulled back and looked at her in the eyes.

Me: He's gone now he can't touch you.

I wipe her tears from her eyes and mine too.

Me: Come on. Jace needs you. He's crying for you.

We walk back down stairs and Jace is crawling around on the floor. She pick him up and continue playing with him.

Breanna: Did it just get hot in here to you??

Me: No. Why?

Breanna: I just got hot.

She lift her hoodie from over her head and as she did her shirt rose up with it and I seen the bruise she told me about on her rib. And after a a month and a half it looked like it still hurt.

Me: Breanna he did that?

Breanna: Yeah. I don't hurt. It just stayed this color. *purple/black*

Breanna's POV

I lifted up my shirt to let her see. She came over and traced it with her finger. As she's touching my bruise I felt somebody touch my thigh. I pull my shirt down and turn around and see Levi. My play boyfriend. I give him a hug and feel something get hard against my body.

Me: Hmmm. Hey Boyfriend.

Levi: Hey Bae. I'm guessing you had your shirt up for me.

Me: If you say so.

I pick Jace up and play with him. He's laughing and kicking. He's smart. Jace already know how to say *mumble* his ABC's. I layed him on my lap and he started farting.

Me: Eww. Jacey. Did you use it?

I opened his diapers and scrunched up my face.

Me: He took a dunk. I'll change his diaper.

I took him upstairs to his changing table. And Liliana followed. I changed his diaper with the help of Liliana.

Upstairs I heard the door bell ring and the door open. Then it closed again.

I came back downstairs with a clean Jace and Liliana. They was all sitting at the table eating Pizza. I sat down with them and helped myself. Jace was sitting on my lap. I picked him up and kissed him on the cheek. He turned his head and threw up all over my chest. Everybody at the table started laughing. I got his burpcloth and wiped it off.

Levi got up and wet a towel and tried to come wipe my chest.  I smacked his hand away and took the towel.

Me: Move you creep.

I smiled and he did to.

I actually felt like they were all my real family. I had fun that night. And I wouldn't mind doing it everyday. I enjoyed myself. I was laughing all night. It felt good to leave all the negative aside and focus on the positive.
