Little miss Pace

Chapter 9

"Help?! Somebody?! Just help me, please!" I yelled as I banged on the door loudly.

The door then flew open, I could see Amanda was angry. She had a big knife in her hand making me dash away.

"Why can't you just keep quiet?!" she groaned and she kicked me in my stomach.

"Auw!" I exclaimed and I curled myself into a ball.

I then felt a foot kick me next to my eye, it hurt like bloody hell.

"Stand up!" she demanded but I couldn't, it hurt too much.

"Stand up, you little sh*t!" she then yelled as she pulled me up by my arm pulling my wrist.

"Please, stop, it hurts so much!" I exclaimed but all I got was a punch in my face making me winch in pain.

Then I felt a sharp point getting pressed into my cheek.

It then harshly cut a line into my forehead, making me scream in pain again.

I fell to the ground, covering my forehead with my hands.

I then got a massive kick into my stomach, I quickly covered it in my hands.

I then got a couple of kicks and punches on my face, why must this happen to me?!

"And now, you stay quiet!" she yelled and I quickly nodded.

She then slammed the door behind her when she walked off.

"Lee? I need you, I need your help. I'm hungry, thirsty and mainly, in lots of pain. I need your help, please do something, and hurry." I wispered and I hugged 'doggy' close.

"At least I have doggy here, I am not alone. I know talking to yourself isn't good, but it's the only thing that's keeping me alive here." I mumbled and I slowly tried to stand up, but I failed.

With shaking hands I wiped my hand over the wound on my forehead, it was bleeding pretty bad.

"If I will die here, I just want Lee to know I do love him as my father. I just want his embrace, his soothing voice. Is that too much to ask?! Is it?!" I exclaimed before falling down to the ground sobbing again.

"Why can't you just stay f*cking quiet." a familiar voice yelled and the door slammed open again.

"I-I-I'm just emotional, I miss Lee." I sobbed making her roll her eyes.

I hugged my doggy close, it was the only hold on I had at the moment.

"I see you brought a stuffed animal, it must mean alot to you." she said and she pulled it out of my grip.

She then grabbed a lighter from her pocket, and she set doggy on fire.

You know that feeling when you lose something with alot of memories, it feels like a stab right in the heart.

Why does it hurt so much?!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is probably my last minute on this earth, I can't hold it for any longer.

I carefully layed down on the ground, and I sighed before closing my eyes.

This was it then....

Goodbye world, goodbye Lee, goodbye everything.

A small source of light opened the door, and I saw a cop walking over to me.

"She's hurt, very bad! Call an ambulance!" he yelled before scooping me up from the floor.

My vision was leaving quickly but then I heard it.

"Skyla?!" a low voice yelled, Lee.

"Is she okay?" I then heard him exclain and I opened my eyes lightly.

"Lee? Am I in heaven?" I asked making him chuckle.

"Will she be okay?" he asked and the cop raised his shoulders.

I then heard some loud noises, it was hurting my ears. I think the ambulance had arrived.

I then got placed into the back of it, and when I looked to the right I saw Lee holding onto my hand hoping I wouldn't let go.

"Lee, will I...be okay?" I asked and he sighed.

"A man can only hope." he replied making me smile lightly.

I then tried to close my eyes, but there was someone softly slapping my cheek.

"She needs to keep her eyes open, we can't lose her now." the medical guy said and Lee nodded.

"Skyla, just try to keep your eyes open. How are you feeling?" he asked as he rubbed his tumb on the back of my hand.

"Thirsty, hungry and in lots of pain." I groaned making him seem even more worried.

"Sir, is there a possibility to give her something to eat or drink. She hasn't eaten in three days." Lee said and the guy started searching his pocket.

"We'll be at the hospital in five minutes, when we're there everything's possible." he replied, he did clearly feel very sorry.

"Where does it hurt?" Lee asked and I held my left hand up.

"Why did you let her take custody of me?" I asked weakly making him sigh.

"I did adopt you on her name, I didn't have a choice." he replied as he wiped a strand of hair out of my face.

"Lee, I...I wanna let the sleep take me over. I-I-I'm in way too much pain to deal with at the moment, help me." I wispered but he just kissed my forehead before starting to mumble some songs.

"Just a few more minutes, keep on. I know it hurts, but it's all gonna be okay, I promise." he said with big eyes, I could now clearly see dark circles around his eyes, he hadn't been sleeping much clearly.

"I just can't take it anymore, it all hurts so much, too much." I wispered before I let my eyes fade into darkness, for the last time.
