Reid's Pov:
The thoughts in my mind can't even form words, she threatened my dad to stop hitting me. She did that for me. She knows he's a lawyer who could have put er in prison, but she did that, for me.
I didn't think anybody could or even would care enough to do something like that, for me.
I mean this seventeen-year-old stood up to my grown ass father for me, she kicked his balls in and broke his nose, maybe even his jaw.
I still have to ask where she learnt to do that.
I still don't know why she did or, or what the hell is going to happen now, I mean she's driving to her house, or her dads, I can't wait for that conversation.
I glance over at her in the drivers' seat next to me, her jaw is clenched, she's grinding her teeth down and her eyes pass back and forth over the road like she's thinking. I would give so much to know what she's thinking.
I almost open my mouth to ask but then I see her open her mouth and quickly glance to me.
"Reid, I need you to know something, what I said to your dad, back there, I would have never told the police and ounce of information about what happened, those are your words to use and your story to tell if you decided to, so I'm sorry if it felt like I was forcing something on you."
It takes me a minute to realize the words that came out of her mouth, I snort a laugh "Are you shitting my dick Willy?"
She sends me a confused glare, that is still somehow intimidating.
"That's what you've been thinking about, and are you, apologizing to me?" I say it like it is monumental moment.
She rolls her eyes and for, roughly, the dozenth time today, she bosses me around "Shut the fuck up Reid."
"Also, my dad has no idea I'm coming, because I'm suppose to be at my mom's, also I have to call my mom and tell her I won't be coming home, but I need you to remind me to do that because I'll forget, and I'm not totally sure how my dad might react to you being there, but I doubt he will do more that lecture me for a few minutes." She lists all of this off like it's an Olympic sport, talking a million miles a minute and by the time she's done she's out of breath.
"Ok Willy, breathe, you really don't have to do this, at all, I'm ok on my own, I'll figure something out."
"Yes, Reid yes you will, after you turn eighteen, because until then you will be staying with me, I don't trust you by yourself."
"You don't trust me at all." I mutter.
She pulls the car to a stop outside of her house before I even have the chance to speak or disagree she's out the door and waving for me to follow her.
I grab the backpack I brought with me and follow her to the front door, it's pretty much midnight so I have no idea how or if her dad will respond to the door.
