A/N: I know the updates are still slow, I apologize again, I'm working on it. Anyway this chapter takes places a few days after the previous chapter, once again this will be a POV swap. In this one the drama begins when Lucy begins getting worse in secret due to her father's psychological warfare in which he started against her which included signing her up as a tutor without her knowledge.. This chapter is a bit slow, but the next one Tim and Lucy will both find out about the situation her father put them in. Trigger warning, this chapter contains more graphic descriptions of sexual assault, mentions of blood, abuse, and mental illness, including light mention of self harm.
....
This isn't getting any worse, it can't possibly be getting worse, is what Lucy thought to herself that morning as she stared down at the blood in between her legs. She was in PE when it started shooting pain, so of course she got an excuse to use the teacher's bathroom, but now she didn't know what to do, because the blood wasn't period blood and she knew that, she had her period the week before, and this blood was fresh. She was rubbed raw down there from the injury, and her constant scrubbing, the pain she felt was unbearable, but she knew with her mom being out of town she wouldn't receive any form of medical care, so instead she knew she'd have to deal with it, but the pain she was in was almost unbearable, physically every inch of her body ached, or throbbed, and she felt completely exhausted, and she was left wondering how much more of this she could take before she snapped.
He was failing, it didn't matter how hard he tried the information he received in class didn't take, so when the tests came along he failed every single time, Mr. Chen decided on getting him a tutor which was embarrassing enough knowing that some other student would find out about his issues, the humiliation he felt was unbearable. By time he got done forcing himself to pay attention as well as humanly possible, until he was finally relieved with the fact that lunch was next, so he walked to the cafeteria as usual, slightly alarmed by the fact he hadn't seen Lucy since that morning, but then again she was in classes, and he couldn't exactly follow her around, even if he wasn't increasing anxious. He walked over to join his friends, and sister who sat at their usual table which he somehow managed to join after refusing to speak to any of his old friends on the football team, who all stood up for Pierson, after what he did Lucy. "Hey guys." He said, before taking a seat at the table, and seeing that she was in fact not there.
Jackson had known for awhile Lucy wasn't okay, even before what happened she wasn't alright, their sunshine girl had been struggling for awhile, and he knew the signs very well. Jackson sat at his usual table that day alongside his boyfriend Issac, other best friend Genny, Angela, Jack, and Tim who somehow got into their friend group despite the fact he insisted that they were all annoying for the past two years, but apparently finding Lucy the way she was screwed something up with Tim Bradford because he was sitting there nearly having a panic attack because she wasn't there. "What the hell is up with you man?" Jack asked, while glancing over at Tim who was fidgeting with his hands. "He's freaking out because his girlfriend isn't here." Angela answered as she picked at her food. "She's not my girlfriend, I'm just fucking worried about her okay." He answered, and he looked just a terrified as he sounded, and Jackson couldn't help but feel awful for him. It was common knowledge that the Bradford's didn't have the best home life, his dad personally seen Tim's dad assault his wife, or their son multiple times. He remembered when Tim came to school every day with a new injury, and now the wound was wasn't physically, but psychological, and he knew why, Lucy was the only one who didn't understand why Tim was so attached to her. "How about I go check on her for you? I'm sure she just got caught talking to her dad." He answered the anxious blonde boy, it was clear that the guilt he felt was unmatched. Though both Jackson and Genny themselves felt guilty for not noticing anything was wrong, and leaving her that night, but even their guilt was nothing compared to Tim's who found her that night, because the boy nearly had a panic attack over this.
