Elena's P.O.V.

I was frozen. I couldn't believe what I was seeing in front of me. Greg was literally just yelling at her earlier at the table and now they're kissing. Why?

I could feel tears building up in my eyes and I wasn't even sure why. Greg is just so horrible to me but yet I felt so hurt and betrayed. How could he do this to me?

I stared sobbing uncontrollably. I could feel eyes on me but no one even came over to check on me or see if I was okay.

I have no idea how long I was there but everything just seemed to stand still.

Greg looked in my direction and frowned. Even from across the room I could see his eyes turn into ice.

He quickly hopped out of the water and stormed over to me. "What the fuck are you doing here?!" He yelled yanking me by my hair. "Did I fucking tell you that you could leave the room?!" I didn't know what to say. I couldn't speak.

Before I could think I crumpled to the floor feeling a sharp sting to my cheek. Greg stood above me pointing his finger in my face. "You're always doing shit that pisses me off!"

I screamed feeling his bare foot connect with my stomach. At that moment everything seemed to go in slow motion. Pain erupted throughout my entire body.

I couldn't keep track of all the hits that were coming.

One after the next.

No one stepped in and no one stopped him.

After awhile everything turned blurry and I blacked out.

I groaned as my eyes fluttered open. My head felt like it was it was full of bricks and I couldn't feel my body. Everything just felt so heavy.

I looked around and almost smiled seeing that I was in my own room. I missed my pink walls and my fluffy blankets.

The previous events flooded my mind and I suddenly felt afraid. Greg hit me in front of everyone and didn't even care. I didn't even know what I did wrong.

I sat up groaning as I pulled the pile of blankets over my body. I frowned seeing that I was in a new set of clothes. Did Greg change me?

I jumped hearing my door open. Greg stepped in with a serious expression. He slowly made his way over to me and shook his head. "So... I see you're awake."

I didn't say anything.

"You've been out for about a day and a half. I was worried about you."

I furrowed my eyebrows. A day and a half??

I was about to speak but Greg beat me to it. "Look I know I got out of hand and I know I broke my promise to you. So for that I'm sorry. I was a bit harsh out there." I shook my head, "you promised me Greg. You promised me that you wouldn't hit me anymore. I did everything you told me to do but you never came back. I waited for you a-and I did listen to you..." I started crying. "I listened to you and I did go to the room and I did put on Spongebob. B-But you took a long time a-and I didn't know where you were... I'm so sorry... I t-thought you would want to meet at the pool so I went there to find you... I-I didn't-" I couldn't finish my sentence. My body shook as loud lobs escaped my throat. I felt so broken. I did everything he told me to do. I always do but it's never enough.

I felt the bed dip beside me. Greg scooped me into his lap and sighed rocking us back and forth.

It didn't comfort me.

I didn't know how long I was crying but Greg held me the entire time. He didn't say or do anything, he just continued to rock me.

After awhile I couldn't cry anymore and I felt drained. I just wanted to go back to sleep
