Neglected & Abused, Until I Found You

Chapter 6

He pulled the car over, unbuckled himself, and leaned over. My first reaction was to scream, so I did. He hugged me. He wasn't trying to attack me or rape me, he was hugging. I traced my hands up his arms to his shoulders and hugged him back. He leaned out and said "I am so sorry that all of this happened to you. You don't deserve this." I sat there in silence. All this time I had thought that it was me. I thought I was to blame for what's been going on. Was it me, or was it Stephan? I wasn't sure anymore. Liam grabbed my hand and looked me in the eyes. Everytime he looks at me all I see are his big brown eyes. "Do you want to stay with me until you figure out what you want to do?" I was in such shock, all I could do was nod. He smiled with his big cheesy grin, and my heart melted. We were back on the road, and I had my knees up to my chest. My sleeves were rolled up, I was examining my scars. Apparently, so was Liam. When I noticed him looking, I quickly rolled down my sleeves. He looked hurt. I didn't mention to him that I was cutting myself, just another reason for him to think I'm a mess. But the truth is, I am. My life is shattered into pieces. But, I think Liam might be the one to pick up the pieces and put them back together.
