She has lived on the cut her whole life with her uncle Jake. Her becoming friends with the pouges was the best thing that could have happened to her. Her past is always going to come back and bite her in the ass no matter how hard she try's to avoid...

She's definitely not okay. She may pretend everything is fucking fine but it's not. She needs help but she won't admit it and I know she never will. She's to independent. The way her uncle treated her and the way she reacted doesn't sit right with me. The look on her face making me sick to my stomach. She never acts that way around anyone. She is known for never backing down, I should know. But she was most certainly backing down in there.
I remember that is how my dad treated me right before he started hitting me. I don't want her to have to go through that. It can change you, I would also know that. I stare at her across the van while she stares out the window watching the blurry trees go by. Her cheeks flushed and her dark hair sticking to her wet lips. Her sweet face missing the smile and light in her eyes she usually has. Her smile has been vacant the last few days and it's really bugging me.
We stop in the wreck parking lot everyone piling out. Rylee waiting until last to follow kie out. She stops at the door where I'm sitting and looks down at me. Her face serious and not wavering a bit. "JJ, don't say shit about my uncle" she mumbles through gritted teeth. Her eyes heavy and red, lips chapped and almost bleeding from her bitting them the whole way here. I glare up at her as she jumps out of the van following the group in. She's going to have to tell me sooner or later weather she likes it or not.
I close the van door making my way in. We find an empty booth towards the back while Kie and Rylee talk to Kie's dad about food. I debate in my head if I should bring up Rylee's encounter with her uncle to John b and pope or not. Deciding not to when I receive a death glare from Ry from across the room. I see Rylee swallow nervously as they make their way back towards the table. "My dad said he would split the check in half and take some from my upcoming check and some from Rylee's" Kie says throwing some menus onto the table and sitting down next to pope.
I look up at Rylee trying to read her reaction. She just sends me a small smile. I stand up letting her sit in between me and John b in the booth. After witnessing the way her uncle freaked out over money I don't know why she didn't tell Kie no about the whole taking money out of her check idea. Kie and pope sit across from us while me John b and Rylee sit on the other side of the booth. I pick up a menu while bitting the inside of my cheek. Rylee leans her head against my shoulder looking at my menu. "I want a small fry" she whispers watching as I flip through the menu. I watch her fingers fiddle in her lap picking at the skin around her fingernails.
She hasn't eat Anything in awhile and all she wants is a small fry. "Are you sure that's all you want?" I ask feeling her nod her head yes against my shoulder. A short waitress makes her way towards our table taking our order and letting us know our food would be this way soon. I ordered a hamburger and onion rings. I hear the bell ring above the door signaling that someone had entered the restaurant. I look over to see the biggest dick to ever exist. Rafe motherfucking Cameron. Along with his group of kook douche bags.
I feel Rylee tense beside me while looking over her shoulder. They sit at a table not to far away from us whispering back and forth while checking out the waitress. I feel my stomach lurch when I think about them coming in here while rylee's working and looking at her like that. My thoughts get cut off by the waitress setting our food down on the table. Pope and Kie are talking about his scholarship that he never seems to shut up about. While John b and Rylee are being awfully quiet. I slide John b's nasty ass oysters towards him watching as Rylee's face scrunches up to match mine.
She watches in disgust as he picks one up. "How the fuck do you eat those?" She asks picking at her fries. "How can you not?" He holds one out in front of her face causing her to push herself backwards into me, her gag reflexes kick in and she coughs into her elbow. He laughs causing kie, me and pope to laugh along with him. He reaches across the table pushing it towards kie knowing that she doesn't like them either. She squeals and pushes herself away from him. I start stuffing my face after John b is done being a toddler and playing with his food.
I notice that Rylee keeps looking over her shoulder towards Rafe and his friends while barely touching her fries. I lean into her close by her ear whispering "What's wrong?" She turns towards me putting on a smile while shaking her head. "Nothing I'm fine" she says rubbing her hands against her legs.

We have been here for awhile. After we ate we have just been hanging around and talking. Rylee has her head laying on John b's lap while her legs are thrown over mine. I watch as he plays with her dark brown hair while laughing at something pope just said. I'm watching them with a scowl on my face. Her blue eyes are closed and she looks so peaceful and relaxed. Yet I feel like I should be the one making her feel that way not him.
I watch as Kie's face falls while watching Rylee sleep. "Do you guys think she's doing okay?" She asks while Fiddling with her fingers. I look down trying to force myself not to mention the encounter in her house with her uncle. She told me not to say anything but I really feel like I should, pouges don't keep secrets. "She has seemed off lately" pope says shaking his head. John b is staring at her while twirling her hair on his finger. "She's just going through some shit right now, we've all been there" John b says while staring down at her. I know he wouldn't be this chill about her acting this way if he knew about her uncle treating her the way he does. "Okay come on we got to get going" I say tapping her thigh and shaking her to wake her up.
She Forces her eyes open and runs her hand through her hair out of her face. Before taking a deep breath and pushing herself up into a sitting position her legs still thrown over me. She pushes her self over me dragging her ass across my crotch making my head fall backwards as I try to gather myself. "I've gotta pee" she says walking off towards the bathroom. I feel my heart beating faster than it should be and my jeans getting a little tighter. I'm still shocked to this day how little of a touch from her can turn me on so fast. Any other girl and it takes so much more.
