Beaten

Explanations

Soooo sorry for being late! Forgive me! Please:)

*****Sapphire's P.O.V.

After being outside for a while I finally grew the courage to go back inside.

I felt empty, broken and lifeless.

Even my body movements were automatic.

As soon as I walked inside mom was hissing at me. I could tell she was upset but I tuned out the words coming my way. I was tired of hearing the same things over and over again. I was tired of being out down.

I walked passed her and to my room. Once inside I sat down on the floor, not willing to go anywhere near the bed. And i stared to nothing in particular. I hugged my legs to my body wishing I could disappear. And no later HE came in. Dad.

He was mad, more than just mad, he was furious. I flinched at his movements and hugged myself tighter. He was yelling. The same words over again. He looked at me with disgust. Yet i looked at him with so much more. I hated him. So much. I just wanted him to leave. To leave me alone. He grabbed my hair and pulled making me cry out in pain.

But I composed myself and kept quiet. He continued his assault at pulling my hair and yelling. He was moving his hands frantically, he was nervous for some reason. But it only lasted a while before he gained his intimidating composure and walking out.

That's when the silence filled my room. Mom and dad were arguing out in the hallway I could hear their words perfectly clear.

"she's too young, you scarred her!"

"she's NOT my fucking daughter! Jane!"

"but you still loved her as one"

"get the hell out of my way!"

"where are you going!?"

"don't worry about it!"

After that I heard the front spoor slammed closed and mom walk into her room. And for now I was left alone. I was glad for that. But I felt lonely. I wanted someone. But the time that I needed my best friend she was gone. In a coma. Alone as well. Without her mom. And she needed me. But I was stuck here. In this place where no one cared about me.

I hugged myself tighter and sat in silence. I wasn't going to go to bed. Not after what happened.

Minutes passes and I concentrated on my breathing when I heard a soft knock on the door. Immediately I began panicking. What if it was dad?! I tried to keep my breathing steady but the tears kept falling. I wipes them away only to have new ones appear.

The door opened and I started to freak out, only to see Aiden. I calmed down a bit and watched as he got closer.

"hey S..."

When I didn't say anything and sniffed he tensed and immediately made his way towards me in the darkness.

"shhh. It's ok "

But it wasn't not anymore. My life was ruined. Forever. I kept crying and covered my face with my hands embarrassed. Then I felt myself being lifted. Only to end up on Aidens lap.

While I cried with my head on his chest, he kept whispering soothing words. And rubbing circles on my back. And he never let go of me.

He held me until my crying stopped, continued to soothe me and tell me how beautiful I am, he held me tight and told me how much he hated to see me sad.

When my sobs turned into light hiccups, he hugged me and stroked my hair.

"what's wrong S?"

He lifted my chin and made me look at him. He was worried, with so much emotion showing. Worry, hate, confusion, anger and love.
