The Car Accident

Chapter Five

I sat there for hours and luckily nobody came in , it was just me and my thoughts. There was a time when Jesse was still in the hospital and I sank down into a dark place drowning in  grief and self pity. There was a big chance Jess would never wake up and both of my parents were dead, what did I have to live for ?

One day I was gonna end it , end everything . that was the day that Jessica woke up and I had to be there for her, I am all she has left .

Me and her spent our days hanging out and going in and out of foster homes and orphanages. I protected her and took care of her putting my social life on hold . The thing that always infuriated me is we never found who crashed into us, it was a hit and run they didn't even have the decency to check to make sure we were alright they just drove off without a care .

My parents death is on their hands , my sister being unable to talk is on their hands, and yet it feels like it's on mine.

Time dwindled away until and it was time to go do the match. I took a deep breath preparing myself , already dressed, I was finally ready. I slipped on the gloves and looked at myself in the mirror, I can do this I told myself and walked outside to the cheering crowd .

People were screaming and yelling, crowding around the ring waiting for the match to start; some patted me on my back on the way there and I grinned, their cheering me on ! I looked at my opponent and automatically knew this was gonna be was going to be easy.

It was a blonde girl with her hair neatly pulled into a braid as her thin body slouched over the rope as she talked to her friends. I smiled to myself ready to win as  I tied my hair in a ponytail and climbed up into the ring waiting to get introduced.

The cheers were deafening when I got introduced but that's not what I was focused on. I was staring at Liam grinning at another girl there bodies close together as she ran her fingers down his arm .

I turned away seeing red I feel bad for the girl fighting me , she's not gonna know what hit her. I narrowed my eyes and blocked the pain in my ribs and everyone out. it was just me and her.

I heard the ring of the bell and I lunged at her and I right hooked her in the jaw and punched again in the same place feeling it crack under my fist .

she tried to punch me aiming for my eye but I dodged her and punched again and again . all I saw was Liam and that girl touching and talking as I kept going . then I heard the sound of her body falling to the ground signaling that I won .

the girl wobbled  back on her feet before passing out collapsing on the ground blood pouring from her nose and mouth .

I looked around people were grinning pumping their fists up in the air chanting" maya maya maya!!"

Liam smiled at me but I could see in his eyes he was anything but happy with me.i was still high on adrenaline as I high fived my teammates heading to the locker room to change . Once I changed I grabbed my stuff and headed to the car walking by cheering fans High-fiving me as I walked out. I was still grinning even as I pulled out of the parking lot.

My phone started to ring Liam's name flashed on the screen the light cutting the darkness in my car.I hesitated before picking it up.

"hello " I said
"we need to talk " he said no joke in his voice. My temper flared up when I remembered him and that girl before my match and I clenched my teeth agreeing with him" I'll meet you at your house "I said and hung up.

I turned around and headed towards his house . My brain filled with thoughts about what I would say to him and what he was going to say to me .

I pulled into the driveway and sat there for a second gathering my courage before taking off my seat belt and walking up to the front door.

I knocked on the door and waited for an answer and after a second knock his brother opened the door and gave me a twisted look "why are you here ?" He asked.

I took a deep breath and using all my inner strength not to punch him I calmly told him that his brother wanted me to come.

"He doesn't want you here slut" he snapped before trying to slam the door in my face. Annoyed I stuck my foot in the door and pushed myself inside glaring at him . "Listen you 15 year old alcoholic , the reason why you can't keep a girlfriend or friends for that matter is because your a disrespectful little asshole who deserves to get some sense knocked into you " I snapped.

His face turned red with anger as he tried to hit me . I grabbed his wrists and pulled him close to me as I felt sobs rack through his body .

This poor kid is hurting bad, I realized and he stopped trying to hit me and cried into my shirt while I made calming noises just like I do to Jess.

he calmed down and I let him go " listen kid drinking and drugs for that matter won't help if you really need help , I recommend throwing yourself into a hobby like I did and use your anger for something good".

he nodded" what did you do ?" He asked I sighed and looked around to make sure that nobody was around .
"Don't tell Liam this ever okay ? "I told him and he nodded promising . "I turned to self harm like cutting and I used to burn myself and even once I tried to kill myself before I started boxing " his eyes widened as I rolled up my sleeves showing him the scars on my arms . " it was bad kid but I'm good now that I have boxing " he nodded in deep thought.

His brother quickly hugged me tightly as Liam came in , his eyes widening as I hugged his crying younger brother. He walked away and I straightened myself out carefully as the pain in my ribs came back. " what was that about ?" He asked , I shook my head refusing to tell him , that was up to his brother .

He motioned to a staircase "follow me " he told me and walked into the basement to have our talk.

As soon as we reached the room he turned to me " listen I understand that you can take care of yourself but would it be so bad if someone was there to help you !" He said and I felt guilty maybe I pushed him away to much.

" Liam I apologize I know you meant well and I wasn't hearing you out " I said and sat down on the couch , his jaw dropped in shock " well okay so we are calling the cops right ? " he said sitting beside me . I shook my head no " no but I have a idea " and whispered it in his ear .

He smirked "that's my little evil mastermind " he said seductively and  carefully pulled me towards him so I was straddling him.

I sexily smiled at him leaning close " are you scared ?" I whispered,  he grinned wrapping an arm around my waist. " I'm terrified" and I bent down and kissed him.

He took my bottom lip with his teeth gently pulling on it sensually .When all of a sudden a loud and sudden bang made us both jump in surprise . he let go of my lip and gently placed me on the couch peering upstairs .

I grew concerned as screaming and yelling commenced upstairs and his little brother literally threw himself down the stairs shutting and locking the door behind him.

He looked at me his eyes serious, putting a finger to my lips when I opened my mouth to ask what's going on.

he pointed to the window and whispered in my ear "we need to leave" I nodded and he pushed me out first . I laid down in the wet grass gritting my teeth as pain erupted in my ribs. i ignored it  pulling his little brother up then helping Liam get up .

We snuck over to my car climbing inside . I turned in the engine as the person in the house clambered outside and I quickly pulled out of the driveway and turned making my tires squeal.

I looked at the two brothers staring at me "I'm not asking questions but you are going to my hotel and staying there" I told them , they both quietly nodded and looked out the window as i drove.

We made it to my room and his brother slept on the pull out bed on the couch and I undressed pulling on Liam's shirt before climbing into bed with him.

He wrapped his arm around my waist putting his leg between mine. "I like you wearing my clothes " he whispered huskily I smirked " I like wearing your clothes" I purred before both of us fell asleep happily dreaming about each other grateful that our stupid fight was over .
