"Jude why dont you do the dishes by yourself tonight?" Jason said sternly. Jude nodded quietly standing up, "I'll need Liv's help putting them away."

I paused sending a nervous glance as Jason left the table, sending me a harsh glare when I didnt follow after him. "Just call for me." I whispered kissing Jude's forehead following after Jason.

He quickly threw me down beneath him, covering my mouth with his hand to hold back any noise I could've made.

"You know what to do." He whispered in my ear. I gulped nodding shortly as I began to pull off my shirt.

I watched the window out of the corner of my eyes hoping to see her. Callie promised she would come get us tonight. I lost hope, id though I'd seen two people outside but when I looked back they were gone.

"Eyes over here." He snapped gripping my chin to turn back my face. My eyes locked with his as he watched me with a smirk. "I want more than that Livy." He said dragging his fingers down the strap of my bra.

My mouth fell open slightly. "I-I dont know Jas-" I started but was cut off by his hand tightening around my throat.

"You'll do what I tell you." He said as I struggled to breath. My fingers pryed but his hand wouldn't budge. Finally he dropped his hand. I took in a deep breaths staring up at him in fear. "Take it off."

I bit into my lip holding back tears as I removed the last item covering my top.

As he leaned down to me the doorbell rang, and whoever was there was persisant cause it didnt stop. "Damnit, don't you have ears boy." He shouted standing up.

"You stay here, just like that and well finish when I get back." He said down to me.

I nodded and climbed further back onto the bed, ignoring the silent tears that fell from my eyes. He had always been like this with me, but once Callie was gone and unable to protect me it happened almost every night.

Yelling from outside caught my attention but I didnt want to risk Jason getting made so I stayed in my spot.

I shrieked as the door to the bedroom was thrown open. An older blonde woman and a brunette boy a few years older than me stood in the doorway. "What the fuck?" I shouted using my arms to cover myself.

The pair both stared with side eyes. "Brandon go get Callie." She told the boy.

"Hi, sweetie." She said walking into the room as I quickly got redressed. "I'm Stef and you must be Olivia?" I nodded slowly still confused.

Before she could continue another person busted through the door. "Liv!" Callie shouted as she wrapped her arms around me. "Cal?" I asked shocked squeezing back. "You actually did it."

Stef watched with a small smile. "Alright, why dont you girls come with us and we can talk later."

I gave her a small nod, "Can i just grab something real quick?" Stef gave me an ok and walked out with Callie. I ran to the bathroom and quickly put a turtle neck on under my t-shirt in hopes that they hadnt already seen any of the bruises.

Callie sat in between me and Brandon in the backseat, Jude in my lap.

"Hey Skippy, my brother used to have that backpack." Brandon said earning a grin from Jude. I gave him a small squeeze knowing he didn't do well with new people. "Cool."

Once we got back to their house Callie brought me and Jude to the couch she had been staying on since she got out. "I'm glad you got us." I mumbled into her hair. "Me too "

"Could everyone come down here please?" Stef called up their stairs. Down came three kids, including Brandon, and another woman.

They all walked into the living room with us.

"Guys this is Jude, Callies little brother and Olivia, her younger cousin. They're going to be staying with us for a while." Stef told everyone. My eyes went wide and I looked over to Callie, she only shrugged. "We don't know how long, but we are meeting with Bill soon."

The room fell silent, all eyes on us. "I dont think we got any names." I spoke up quietly.

"Oh, of course. This is Lena my partner, you know Brandon, and the twins, Jesus and Marianna." She said pointing to each.

I sent a smile to the twins, Marianna returned one but Jesus just stared.

"Do you have a bathroom?" I asked Lena after everyone left. "Up the stairs on the right." She said with a smile.

I quickly ran up and shut the door. Moving to the mirror I pulled off my hoodie looking over the marks on my body. I winced as my finger ran across the hand print that had begun to reform on my neck.

"Woah I'm sorry." I heard behind me. I whipped around to see Jesus backing away. He paused staring at me.

I scoffed crossing my arms over myself. "Never seen a girl in a bra before?" His mouth fell open when I caught him. "Please of course I have." He lied. "Really then whats the problem?"

"This." He said walking up to me, his finger rested gently against the bruise on my neck.

My cheeks burned as I quickly pulled my hoodie back on. "What so I have some hickeys." I lied. "You sure? Cause I saw that wasnt the only one and you couldnt lie about the others."

"Look Jesus, I'm perfectly fine. Dont tell anyone okay?" I said softly, turned slightly. I could tell he didnt want to lie so I sent him a reassuring smile. "Fine, but then I want to know what happened. If I'm keeping a secret I want to know why."

I sighed staring down at the floor. "Fine, I guess I'll see you tomorrow." I said backing away. "Bye." He sent me a wink as I walked away.
