Bell POV
I got off the bus and walked to the porch. Today I wasn't hearing yells I was hearing glass break. I unlocked the door and ran inside to the basement. My dad was crying and throwing beer bottles into the wall. He threw a beer bottle next to my leg and shard of glass entered my sensitive skin. "DAD STOP LOOK WHAT YOU DID!" I screamed pointing at my leg that was now gushing blood. He sunk down to the ground and continued crying.
I walked over to him and grabbed his chin "Dad look at me stop this isn't okay. You have two daughters who need you and we can't take care of you 24/7"Ever since our mom died when you looked into my dad eyes there was no color. He had no more happiness. He completely lost himself it was like both parents were dead but one had the physical appearance. I didn't have a car but I knew who did. I called Scott and told him everything that happened. He pulled up in the driveway and ran inside I was sitting on the couch now because walking was to much and I felt really dizzy. Scott ran into the living room and picked me up like a baby. He put me in the back seat and elevated my foot.
I looked down and it was disgusting. I had three big pieces of glass wedged into my foot. I couldn't feel it which I knew wasn't a good thing but I was glad it was numb because it would have been excruciating. Scott stopped at the hospital and picked me up again. He looked down at me and smiled "Don't worry Bell everything's gonna be okay" it all sounded slurred. Things were starting to get blurry and my heart started racing. I thought I was gonna faint and that's exactly what happened everything went black.
Scott POV
How could her dad do something like this? Who would ever throw a beer bottle at their daughter. Bells leg looked horrible the nurses told me she had three pieces of glass in her leg and that the doctor was doing the stitches now. I waited in the waiting room since they wouldn't let me inside her room.1 hour later
I was looking through my phone and that's when a beautiful girl with long black curly hair tapped my shoulders. I stood up and grabbed her into a tight hug. I looked down and saw three cuts with stitches and it didn't look nearly as bad as it did. We filled out some paperwork and left the hospital. In the car I grabbed her hand tight.
"Bell I don't think you should go back there" she looked down at the floor "Scott I have to my sisters there" "I know but do you have any other family you can stay with until your dads stable" she looked at me with sad eyes "My dad is the only parent I have left and I feel like if I leave him I have no one left" I expected her to be crying but throughout this horrible experience not one tear had escaped her eyes the whole time. I realized how much she's actually been through and how brave she was. "He's the only person left to take care of me" I squeezed her hand "I'll take care of you so if anything is ever wrong call me and I'll be here as soon as possible okay?" She smiled "okay." I kissed her temple and she walked into her house.
