My Only Wish // Asa Butterfield Fanfiction

Chapter 27

Chapter 27 ~ Asa
I couldn't believe it.
Mom was right.
I was right.

But that didn't matter. Rowan was sobbing, her face drenched in tears and I pulled her close to my chest, trying not to cry myself.

"It's okay Row." I whispered, running my hand down her hair. She was shaking.

"Two years Asa. Two whole years." She could barely speak through her racking sobs, and she coughed, cuddling herself closer to me.

I bit my lip and told myself I had to keep myself together. Two years? And no one had noticed anything? She could have died! I felt my chest fill up with anger. How could you possibly watch your daughter waste away into a twig for two years and do nothing about it? I closed my eyes and held her close, letting her cry it all out.

"Asa, I just...I just want to sleep." She whispered.

"Okay." I said, and watched as she drifted off to sleep in a few minutes.

The house was silent and dark, except for a few occasional murmurs from the TV. I carefully moved her so she was rested on the couch, and then stood up to go to the guest room, so I could be on the same floor.

I felt oddly awake even though it was such a late hour, so I sat down on my bed and put my headphones on.
She needed help.

But she said I couldn't tell anyone.
I stood up and sprinted to my room for my laptop, and as I passed the living room on my way back, I saw her. Her curls sprawled on the pillow, eyes closed and eyelashes fluttering. The TV cast a soft glow on her face and I could see her chest rising and falling. She was so beautiful.

I shut the door to the room as quietly as possible and looked up the ways I could help her.

After about an hour, I felt my eyelids getting heavy. I took one last note and shut my laptop.
I would do all that I could do help.
