Just trying to be normal

Chapter 27

===============================
"Time to wake up freak" A voice said yanking me up. My eyes shot open being face to face with James

"Hiya" he said with a evil smile "A little birdie told me that your parents don't want me around anymore. I wonder why that is" I struggled against his grip again. I already felt weak and couldn't fight back

"Let's take a little swim, bud" he said dragging me to the toilets. I tried getting away, but I kept struggling "James please. I didn't*tic* say anything! My parents did that*tic* on their own" I lied

He grabbed the back of my collar and kicked the back of my leg to make me fall to my knees. He flushed the toilet before sticking my head in

I couldn't breathe and me struggling against him wasn't helping. He picked me back out "Whats wrong Knoxy? Not going to fight back?" He grabbed my hair and stuck my head back in

This time holding me under till I ran out of breath then pulled me back "Fight back super star! What would your girlfriend think huh?!" He laughed like a mad man "You're weak!"

He put my head  back under and did the same thing before bringing me back up. I was now gasping for air. My eye sight blurry and my head all over the place

"Come on Knox! Fight me! Be the disgusting man you are! Fight for your life!" He yelled, yanking me up to slam me against the stall

"Fight for me not to kill you! I'm not afraid to face prison to kill the scum you are! I want to get caught!" He spat at me.

"Y-you're *tic* crazy" I mumbled trying to catch my breath

He slapped me across the face "Stop ticking and be a man" he said pointing a finger at me

I ticked again so he punched me in the gut "I told you don't tick" he said "Come on superstar! What's the muscles for if you're not gonna use them?" he asked

I ticked again so he punched me even harder. I started throwing up"You know you would think you would listen after the first time. Would you listen if I brought your little play toy into this?" I stood back up and my jaw clenched when he brought up Rainlee

I kicked him in the balls which made him drop to the floor "Don't talk about her like that" I said trying to gain my balance

He launched at me and slammed me into the tile of the showers. He started the water beside me and then yanked me up. He punched me in the face before pulling me under the water. "Let's clean this blood up a little" he said with a smirk

As far as I know I wasn't bleeding. He brought his pocket knife out and cut a slash through my eyebrow. I yelled out and pain and pushed him off of me. "Why couldn't you be normal? This could've been a whole lot easier" he said standing up from when I shoved him

To be honest I was scared. I didn't want to mess up in a way this could end up in me dying "James c-come on. *tic* I am normal. I'm h-human*tic*!" I told him

He punched me repeatedly till I was trying to catch my breath on the floor. I was cold, wet, and just wanted to be left alone. "Get up you good for nothing son of a bitch!" He said kicking my side

I didn't want to fight him back. I knew I could, but I was so tired of getting beaten up. Ever since I was little I had to go through countless beatings that I quit trying to fight back.

I stood up only to be pushed back down "How can she love you? She's probably using you. She wasn't as popular as she is now because of you. No one can love someone so fucked up as you!" He spat as I sat on the shower floor locking down

"Get out before I kill you myself " I heard a voice that I knew all so well. My other half...my brother. I looked up to him and he looked furious

James turned around to be face to face with the face I share with Kenson "Am I supposeed to be scared of you and you're broken sister?" he chuckled

"You don't have to be scared of me, but you have to be scared of them" Kenson said pointing behind him to Dax, Damon, and Tyler the big ass O-linemen who don't fuck around

They dragged him out of the locker room and it was silent. I heard footsteps running over to me after I dropped my head out of exhaustion

"Baby are you ok" I heard her feminine voice say. She checked my face and wiped the blood of my eyebrow. She stood up and turned the water off "Knoxley look at me" she said bringing my face up to hers

"Whatever he said to you isnt true. You are perfect baby and I love you" she told me kissing my hand. Kenson threw a towel at me before dropping down to dress my cut "Why the fuck did you not fight back?!" He yelled at me

"Keni knock it off" Lee said with a stern look "No I won't! Knox he just beat the shit out of you and you just let him! I know you can fight back! Why are you so soft!?" He yelled

"Kenson! Stop it!" Lee yelled at him "I don't want to lose you like I almost have before Knox! I wouldn't be able to survive without you! You should know that!" His voice cracked as he stood back up and turned around. Running his fingers through his hair in frustration

"I'm sorry" I mumbled "You should be! I love you sissy! I want you to be fucking happy! I want you to live your life. Make it pro with me like we always dreamed, marry Lee, have kids— I want to be a fucking uncle Knox! But I can't have those dreams for you! That's you Knox! You have to take care of yourself first!" He yelled as he tried to hold his tears, but failing miserably

Lee wrapped the towel around me and hugged me tightly

"Look at me Sissy" Kenson said in a softer voice. I brought my hazel eyes to his identical eyes. He cupped my face "Please. For me, the love of your life, mom and dad, Kannon and Kailor, your future kids. Stay here. Stay healthy and alive" he said. My lip quivered and I nodded

He opened his arms and I leaped into them "I must love you because you're soaked" he said "That's what he *tic* said" I mumbled. He chuckled as he let go. I wiped my eyes and sniffled

"Let's go home bud" he said helping me up "Can Lee come?" I asked with a pout "Yeah she can" he said

I turned to Lee "Can we *tic* cuddle?" I pouted. She kissed my head and nodded "Anything you want" she smiled

"Anything?" I asked raising my eyebrows. She kissed my nose and grabbed my hand pulling us out of the room and to her car

"So is that*tic* a yes?" I quietly asked her
