Healing
(Mentions of abuse, bruises)
When there was a knock on Marie's window at 3 am in the morning, she was pretty scared. She looked outside to see Vance. She opened it quietly and quickly closed it.
"Vance, what's wrong?" She asked, annoyed slightly.
"I'm sorry. But, uh, I didn't know where else to go-"
She turned on the light and gasped, his face had a dark bruise on it.
He sat on her bed and looked at her.
"Are you okay? Who did this? Did you get into another fight?" She asked him.
He didn't reply, and just looked ahead.
"Vance-"
"I'm fine." He snapped, looking at her then back ahead.
"Your dad did this.. didn't he?"
He didn't say anything, and instead just gripped his jeans to where his fists were white. His fists were also bloodied.
"I'll be right back." She said, and went into the bathroom. She grabbed an elastic bandage. And then went into the kitchen, grabbed ice and put it in a bag, put cold water in the bag and then put a towel over the bag.
She went back into her room and got on her knees in front of him, wrapping the bandage around each of his fingers carefully while he held the cold bag to his face.
"Thank you." He said quietly.
"Of course, V. I'm always here for you. You can stay if you want, you can have the bed, because if my mom walks in on us sleeping she'll think something different."
"It's fine, you can take the bed-"
"No. Absolutely not. You take the bed, I'll set up down here."
He sighed and handed her an extra cover, and some pillows.
"Love you." She whispered to him.
"Love you too." He whispered back.
