I stand up and walk by the stairs and look down.
"Hello?" I call out again "Who's there?"
I walk downstairs and I find Derek by the island table reading the mail.
"What do you want Derek?" I ask
"you're my girlfriend aren't you?" I sigh.
"Well what the fuck. If I call out you respond do t make me think you're a serial killler." I say
"Don't give me that attitude" He snaps "and maybe lock the door next time stupid"
"Don't call me stupid" I say
"And why not?"
"Because it's rude" I state obviously, Derek stands up and walks over to me. I brace myself and there it is ... he back hands me. I push him back.
"stop it" I say "everytime you come here you always do this, what did I ever do to you!?" I half scream.
"hah! You're fucking funny!" He half screams back "Why do you always have to be a fucking asshole and do this?!" He tosses a piece of mail over. Its a bill from the therapist.
"Because you need help!" I say
"NO I DONT" He screams
"Yes you do!" I scream back "everytime you come here you always find something to freak out about! Whether it's because the milks almost gone or I forgot to wash your damn socks! You have anger problems!" He grabs my hair and pushes me back. He grabs my thin arms and drags me upstairs. This time when he pushes me its onto the bed.
I kick at him and try to push him away but he's to strong.
Then I blackout
-
The next morning I'm half naked. Shit shit shit. I get up and get dressed. I grab a trophy that's on the shelf and slowly check the bathroom and then slowly walk downstairs. I don't see or hear anyone. He's gone. I run to the door and lock it.
I go upstairs to the bath room and look in the mirror my cheek is bruised and there's bruises where his hands were on my arms.
All I do all day is sit by my window and watch the passing cars and reading trying to figure out what I was gonna tell everyone. Thats it. I won't tell anyone. Simple. I go to the bathroom and take a shower. When I'm done its 7 PM, well I wasted my weekend. I decide to go to bed early. I wake up to the door opening. I grab a trophy and walk downstairs. I wasn't taking a risk. I look around and then look into the kitchen.
"Summer?" I jump like ten feet into the air
"Haylie, you scared the shit out of me"
"Are you okay?" She examined my face
"Yeah I'm fine"
"What happened to your face?"
"I ran into the wall trying to go to the bathroom" I fake laugh "I'm dumb" She doesn't believe me but she does t say anything else
"What time is it?" I ask
"12" she said "why?"
"I just woke up, I went to bed at 7" she looks at me oddly
"7? isn't that a bit early?" I shrug
"I was tired." I yawn "I'm going to go back to bed"
"Alright" she hesitantly says "night, I'll wake you in the morning"
"Alrighty, night babes" I laugh and go upstairs. I set my trophy on the shelf and plop on my bed. I curl up in my blanket and fall back to sleep.
-
"Wakes time for eggs and bakey?" I laugh and sit up
"Nice try" I laugh again,
"I tried" she shrugged and went downstairs.
"Wait did you actually cook?"
"Psh! You're funny" I laugh and shake my head. I stand up and go to the bathroom. The bruises are pretty noticeable so I put lots of cover up on the hand prints and a little on my face, they would know Derek did something if they saw the hand prints. I did my makeup and put on my black ripped skinny jeans, and I threw a red flannel over my Sleeping With Sirens shirt.
I throw on my vans and rush downstairs. I grab my bag and pull Hahlie along locking the door. "Waitttttt it's only 7:20 we still have 40 minutes." Haylie says.
"I knowwww" I go to the 5th floor and walk to George's room and knock. Haylie just looks confused. He opens the door.
"Hey George" I smile "how are you?"
He smiles back "I'm good, thank you again so much" He says
"George this is Haylie, Haylie this is George" She smiles and greets him politely. I hand him 20 dollars to get food and he tries to tell me he's okay and that I don't have to but I insist.
"Summer I appreciate everything you're doing for me"
"Anytime bud" I say and his eyes seem to light up. He thanks me again and me and Haylie walk to the elevator.
"What was that?" she asked
"I saw him on the street outside the apartment window and I felt bad so I asked Ashtonf or 50 bucks and I have like 50 so I payed for a couple nights in a room and the r he rest of them pitched in so he could stay there a little longer. I wanna see if I can get him a job somewhere. Maybe I can ask Paul if he could use extra help." Haylie is speechless
"summer... Oh my god you are perfect and sweet and I don't see how anyone would hate you" She smiles and hugs me I hug back.
We get into her car and drive to the studio, but first we stop at dunkin donuts for an ice coffee. When we get to the studio Paul greets us at the door and walks down the hall with us.
"Paul" I look up at him while continuing to walk
"Yeah?" He asks
"Do you have any spots for someone to work? Like for money?" I ask
"Maybe, I'd have to check why?" he asks
I explain to him everything that happened with George and all he does is smile the entire time.
"I definitely could find a spot, and I'll see if the boss could pay him a tiny bit extra." We walk into the studio area and everyone looks up "you're a good person Summer" Everyone raises an eyebrow.
Then Aleisha walks in, not paying attention, and talking on the phone and bumps into me on purpose making me spill my drink all over my bag and me, my arms and hands are sticky now.
"Shit" I say.
"Oh, oops" then she walks over and sits next to Luke who looks astonished.
"I'll be right back" I throw away the rest of my drink and go to the bathroom. I wipe off my arms and hand and Haylie walks in with an extra shirt.
"Thanks" She smiles at me
"Anytime" I change out of my sleeping with sirens shirt into a vans one she had. Then I notice the makeup rubbed off my arms a little so I just fixed it a little. It was a little noticeable but not to bad I took my notebook out of my bag and it's covered in coffee.
"Fuck!" I scream. "what the fuck is her problem!?"
"Jeez Summer calm down" Haylie says "I know you're pissed but I've never seen you snap like this.. are you sure youre okay?"
"Yes I'm fine" I take a deep breath "lets go" I walk out of the bathroom and down the hall to the studio area. Everyone stares at me.
"What?!" I snap
"Sheesh someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today" Aleisha mumbles
Haylie grabs my arm lightly "Summer" I slap her hand away and set my stuff on the table. "I'm fine, lets just get to work"
