The Boy Trapped

Chapter 8

Colette's POV
"I'd rather hang out with my boyfriend then be around drunk and high kids."

"Oh come on!"

"Tara please stop. I don't want to go."

Nyxon put his arm around me.

"Okay. Okay fine."

"Y-you can go. I-it's fine."

"Nah. I'm fine with staying with you."

Tara rolled her eyes.

"Ugh. You used to like going to parties."

"I don't anymore. I enjoy spending time with Nyx."

I took out my phone and saw what time it was.

"We should get going. The ice cream shop closes in an hour."

"Are you guys 5? You're seriously going to get ice cream instead of going to a party?"

"We're leaving."

I grabbed Nyxon's hand and we started walking to my car.

"I-I'm so sorry about her."

"I-it's fine. A-are your friends normally like that?"

"No."

After we got our ice cream, we sat outside and started eating.

"I honestly have no idea what's gotten into Tara."

"Don't worry. It's okay."

After we ate, we got back in my car. I dropped him off at his house. In the morning, I woke up when I heard screaming. I jumped up. I ran out of my room. I followed the screaming to the kitchen. I saw my dad doing something, I swore he'd never do. He was on top of my brother.

"STOP! GET OFF!"

I sat blood all over my brother's upper body. I started crying. Something was telling me to run but, I was too scared to. I fell to my knees. My dad looked over his shoulder. He stood up.

"D-daddy? W-what are you doing?"

He started walking towards me. I slowly stood up.

"COLE RUN! RUN!"

I stood up and started running. I ran up to my room. I shut the door and locked it. I used my body to hold the door. I started hyperventilating. I felt the door breaking. I held my breath and shut my eyes.

Run!

Cole run!

Go to Nyxon!

I ran and grabbed my phone. I opened my bedroom window and climbed out it. My dad grabbed my shirt. He pulled me back into my room. He threw me onto my bed.

"D-daddy stop! I-I won't tell anyone!"

He ripped off my clothes. I started kicking him.

"STOP! HELP! HELP! KYLE! HELP!

My dad scanned my body. He put the knife underneath my chin. He started touching me all over my body.

"P-please s-stop. Y-you're scaring me."

He slapped me. He slammed the knife into my chest. I screamed. He twisted the knife then pulled it out. He threw my phone across the room. He opened my bedroom window and jumped out of it. My alarm for school started going off.

No.

I can't miss today.

I can't.

He'll worry.

Especially since...I didn't tell him why, I'm not going to be in school.

He lost Masie.

He can't lose me.

That'll ruin him.

He seems happier now.

If I die...

His heart will break....

He'll die..

NO!

I managed to stand up. I collapsed. I started army crawling to my phone. I felt my body failing. My eyes shut right as I grabbed my phone.

Fuck...

I'm dying.

I'm sorry Nyxon.

I love you.

"KY?! COLE?!"

Sienna?

"SIENNA!"

I heard my sister running up the stairs. She screamed once she got to my room. She ran over to me.

"What happened?!"

"D-daddy snapped."

"What?!"
