I never thought that I would find myself in a situation like this. But here I am, sitting in the corner of my room, tears streaming down my face, my body bruised and aching from the beating I just received from my own father, Ward Cameron. I can't believe he would do something like this to me, his own daughter. But as the latest argument escalated, his temper got the best of him, and now I'm left here, broken and scared.
My name is Y/N Cameron, and I am the girlfriend of JJ Maybank. Our relationship hasn't been easy, with Ward constantly disapproving of our relationship and trying to keep us apart. But tonight, things took a turn for the worse. The argument started off as usual, with Ward yelling at me for seeing JJ behind his back. But this time, he lost control and started hitting me. I cried out in pain, begging him to stop, but he wouldn't listen.
As the blows rained down on me, I screamed out for my brother, Rafe. Sarah, my younger sister, was out with her friends, so Rafe was the only one home. I knew he would come to my rescue, as much as he and Ward didn't get along. But Ward, in a fit of rage, locked Rafe out of the room and continued to assault me.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, Ward stormed out of the room, leaving me alone and trembling on the floor. And that's when Rafe burst through the door, his eyes wide with shock and anger at the sight of me. Without a word, he helped me up and led me downstairs, knowing that we had to get out of the house before Ward came back.
"Y/N, we need to get out of here," Rafe said urgently, his voice filled with concern. "You know I don't want to go to the Chateau, because I hate those Pogues, but it's the only safe place for you right now. They'll take care of you, and I'll come find you, I promise."
I nodded, wiping away my tears as Rafe helped me to my feet. I could barely stand, the pain radiating through my body, but I knew I had to listen to him. Without hesitating, Rafe led me to the back door and pushed me outside, urging me to run to the Chateau as fast as I could.
"Go, Y/N, go now!" Rafe said, his voice urgent as he glanced back at the house, fear in his eyes. "I'll distract him, just run to JJ and stay safe."
I looked at my brother, my heart breaking at the thought of leaving him behind to face the wrath of our father alone. But I knew Rafe was right – I had to get to safety, and JJ was the only one who could protect me from Ward's violent outbursts.
With a final nod to Rafe, I turned and ran as fast as my shaky legs would carry me, tears streaming down my face as I made my way through the dark streets towards the Chateau. Every step sent a jolt of pain through my body, but I pushed through it.
I stumbled into the Chateau, my body trembling with pain and fear. I could feel the bruises and cuts covering my skin, a stark reminder of the abuse I endured at the hands of my father. Tears streamed down my face as I looked around for anyone who could help me.
"Y/N, what happened? Oh my god, are you okay?" JJ rushed over to me, his eyes wide with concern. He wrapped his arms around me, holding me up so I wouldn't collapse. "Sarah, Pope, Kie, get some water and bandages, quick!"
The three dashed off, returning with the supplies as JJ guided me to the couch. I winced as I sat down, the pain radiating through my body. JJ gently started cleaning my wounds, his touch gentle and comforting.
"I can't believe this, Y/N. How long has this been going on?" John B's voice was filled with anger and sadness as he looked at me, his eyes pleading for answers.
I took a shaky breath, trying to calm myself down. "It's been happening for a while now. I tried to hide it, but today it just... it got too much. I had to get out."
JJ's jaw clenched, his fists balling up in anger. "You shouldn't have to go through this, Y/N. You're safe here, I promise. I won't let anyone hurt you."
Tears welled up in my eyes as JJ held me close, his presence a balm to my tortured soul. Sarah sat beside me, her hand on mine, offering silent support. As the Pogues sat on chairs nearby, shocked at the state I was in.
After cleaning and bandaging my wounds, JJ held me in his arms, softly whispering words of comfort. "You're safe now, baby. I won't let anyone hurt you ever again. I love you so much."
I buried my face in his chest, the weight of my pain finally starting to lift. "I love you too, JJ. Thank you for being here for me."
As the night went on, Sarah, JJ and the others took turns keeping watch over me, making sure I was comfortable and safe. JJ held me close, whispering sweet nothings in my ear, soothing my battered soul.
The next morning, as the sun rose over the horizon, JJ looked at me with determination in his eyes. "We need to make sure you never have to go back to that house, Y/N. We'll figure something out, I promise."
Together, we made a plan to ensure my safety and protection, involving the authorities and seeking help from Sarah and John B. JJ stood by my side every step of the way, his unwavering support giving me the strength to fight for my freedom.
Days turned into weeks, and with JJ by my side, I started to heal both physically and emotionally. Rafe also came to visit me frequently much to the Pogues' dismay, but they understood why. The love and care they all showed me helped mend the broken pieces of my heart, and I knew that I was finally safe and free from the abuse of my past.
