I'll Fix You (EDITING)

chapter 18

Eric's POV

She's confusing me,

My brain hurts from just trying to figure out what her deal is,

Everything she does pisses me off,

But I always find myself with her, and feel worse when I'm not.

"You really should slow down with that, your going to get brain freeze." It's not my first warning but I know it won't be my last.

After the whole incident I wanted to walk her to shelter, somewhere warm cause I noticed her shivering, but then she saw this ice cream parlor and just walks in looking mesmerized. I would have pulled her away but she was too focused on the ice cream.

Besides that, I'm trying to be a good friend, and she was feeling bad so I guessed the ice cream would make her feel better.

That was a mistake for sure...

"eeh!!" She sqeaks as the expected begins to happen.

"I warned you." I say not moving to do anything instead I take out my phone to distract me, and to show I didn't care.

"Aren't you uh h-having any?" She says a few seconds after calming down, but I still don't look at her as I reply,

"Will you pay for it?," I ask

"Wh- well- I don't-

"Exactly so shut up and finish up what your doing." She doesn't reply after that.

I know I'm supposed to be trying to be nice to her, but buying her ice cream to stop her from being as sad as she was is as far as I go-

"Sorry bout that." I barely hear him say as sounds become muffled in my ear and my vision blurs.

I knew I was about to loose my temper and blow up but I didn't care, I never did,

He pushed my chair and I was pissed, that was all I could process.

"Eric." I hear her, soft and almost soothing 'almost'.

"It was a-an accident, p-please calm down." I couldn't though.

"Yeah dude, listen to your girlfriend." One of them says.

"Wouldn't that be child abuse though?" The guy who shoved my chair says,

And I see red.

Ari's POV

It happened so fast but I was slow to process it, one second he's up from the chair with him pinning the guy to the ground and doesn't stop hitting him.

I could hear everyone shouting at him to 'stop!!', 'let go!!', but I couldn't move, I was too scared to move. This scene was all too familiar.

Flashback

"Sir stop!!, your hurting him!!." I scream but he doesn't listen.

Then little me decides to run towards them and pull him off but instead the table is turned as he throws me to the ground and focuses all his anger on me.

"This is so that 'hit' you 'slap' learn to stay 'hit' out 'slap' 'slap' of what doesn't concern you 'slap' 'blow' 'kick'."

End of flashback...

I couldn't stop the memory from replaying, so I couldn't move,

Scared pathetic little bitch as usual......

*************

I must be really stupid, dumb and most of all selfish. What was I thinking when I agreed to be his friend? "To help him" huh.
