(Y/N)'s pov
I was sleeping while wearing my headphones when they started to violently shake on my head. I looked at my watch. It read "4:00 AM" in big white letters. I got ready as quietly as I could. When I finished getting ready I looked in the mirror at my outfit. I wore a long sleeved sweater and leggings.
I made my bed and organized everything then turned to grab my backpack. When I went to grab my bag I noticed a note tucked next to it.
"i know you're leaving, we need to talk. -thing1"
I looked at it and rolled my eyes. I grabbed my bag and snuck down the stairs. I made sure to skip the creaky one, ultimately making it down the stairs perfectly silent. I looked at my watch to see 4:30 written across it. When I went to go out the door to wait, I noticed Lymani sitting on the sofa, crying. I wanted to walk by and brush it off but I couldn't.
"Why are you crying, Hazel?" I whispered, a little pissed off.
She just ran up and hugged me. I was confused on her sudden burst of affection.
"Lymani?" I bent down to her level and looked her in her tear filled eyes. She walked over and grabbed my confiscated things off of the counter then brought it over to me. She tugged at the strap of my backpack and I pulled it off. She dropped my things into the mostly empty bag that only had clothing in it. She gave it back to me and reached out for a hug. I hugged her and she whispered in my ear.
"She's going to kill me."
My eyes widened as I pulled away and looked at her. She held up her arm and I saw bruises around her wrists. There were marks everywhere from her clearly being hit. As soon as I opened up my mouth to speak my headphones started vibrating again, this time around my neck. I checked my watch for the time.
"5:00 AM" I whispered to myself. I stood up to walk out, Lymani completely slipping my mind.
"(Y/N), please" She cried at me, her voice still low. I looked then immediately sighed to myself for forgetting her. I shoved a hoodie over her head and handed her some sneakers she had by the door. She grabbed them and I quickly lifted her off the floor and carried her outside. She was crying into my shoulder as I hopped in backseat of Tiana's car.
"Is that Lymani?" Harper asked looking at us. I nodded and sat my sister next to me, still holding her.
"Why'd you bring your sister?" Tiana questioned as she pulled out of the driveway. I shushed her then laid Lymani on my lap. I sang to her for about 10 minutes before she fell asleep. When I noticed Lymani softly snoring into my legs, I started talking to the girls. I didn't want to tell them about what my mother did to me so I just avoided mentioning the sleeping teenager I was caressing.
