Saved by the bad boy

Chapter 3

     "Daddy catch me before I fall!" My little five year old self scream jumping into his arms that were open to catch me.

     "Sweetheart, I love you but you have to be careful you could have fell and hurt your head" he cooed staring at me his eyes filled with love while slowly putting me down, a gentle smile graizing his lips.

       "Daddy can I jump one more time just once and I'll stop I promise" I asked a pout on my lips, he nodded his head yes and right when I jumped off......

      "You little whore why the hell did you go to sleep last night I fucking told you I had to talk to you and you already knew I was in a bad mood! Going to bed just made it worse you stupid little bitch maybe if I hit you even harder it will knock some god damn sence it that ugly head of yours!?" With that she sent an ugly right hook towards my face hitting me so hard I could feel my cheek swelling and taste a metallic liquid in my mouth that I'm so used to now.

Glancing at the alarm clock it read 6:50am how the hell did she remember, my train off thought was ended when a left hook came to my face again which hurt worse from the rings on her fingers.

Remembering the new neighbors I bit my lip to stop from screaming when I felt the usual little needles like pain from Christina gripping me by my hair to only be thrown onto my hard cold wooden floor face first. Turning my head to my door I was met by a sneaker to my eye, I couldn't help but scream out in pain hoping I didn't wake up the neighbors!

     She crouched down "now maybe you will be smart and wait like I said you pathetic excuse for a girl, don't bother going anywhere today I don't need no trouble because of your face looking like that." With that she walked out of my room I could hear her and Shelby downstairs before they left about five minutes later.

     Laying on my floor I could only cry, why is my life so messed up? I don't want to live this way anymore what if I run away, they won't know or care I wouldnt have to come back it would be perfect! My thoughts were stopped when I heard a light tapping coming from my window I believe, getting off the floor I dried my tears and walked over looking through the curtains I couldn't see anything beings it was dark.

     Moving the curtains I opened the window to be met with a sleep laced voice "could you be quiet it's only seven I don't feel like taking my sister to daycare and your gonna wake up my mom who will make me so shut your mouth thanks!" And with that the window across from mine was slammed shut, leaving me confused. Beings I wasn't allowed to go out today and most likely tomorrow I curled up and went to sleep for another hour till I had to get up and began making pancakes.

       Nicks p.o.v.

      After being rudely woken up by next door I laid in bed staring at the ceiling till I decided I mind as well get up and take Molly for a walk since no one else will. The weather was so hot after our walk, I grabbed a water bottle and went in the backyard looking over it was like neighbor's pool was taunting me!

Glancing at there house nobody should be home I stripped my shirt off beings I was already in shorts jumped the fence and took a running start towards the diving board jumping straight into the cooling water.

    Doing laps in the pool I heard the door sliding open and slowly turned around. I could feel my jaw drop open slightly and the guilt start to creep up on me when taking a look at the face I saw just last night covered with bruises and shocked as well! Jumping out of the pool I started to walk to Emily I think mom said that was her name last night, after getting home mom gave me a whole conversation about "the nice girl nextdoor" and how I should get to know the neighbors.

A few steps away I stopped when I noticed she took a step back and when she did she said with fear in her eyes "get out of my yard, I told you that last night also so why don't you just leave already? Thanks!"

Then she slammed the back door shut again and with that I walked back to my yard just wondering was that why I heard screams this morning.

Why the hell did I feel the need to protect her, what is wrong with me right now, maybe I'm still kinda messed up from that fight last night..
