No one could know about this. I don't need the people I love getting hurt. I hurried to find jeans and a cute shirt that would cover the bruises. I got dressed and covered my face with cover-up. Looking the mirror, I could slightly see bruises. But it should be okay. The only reason I was able to see them is because I was looking for them.
I heard a knock on the door. Rocky, my dog started whining. I knew it was Niall. Rocky absolutely loved Niall. My apartment was still a disaster from when my dad was here. Crap! Guess that means that Niall isn’t coming in today. I open the door.
“Hey you.” I say and smile. I stretch up and kiss his cheek.
“Hey.” He replied. He laughed as Rocky jumped on his legs.
“Rocky!” I yelled laughing.
“It’s alright.” He knelt down and scratched Rocky behind the ears.
“Melody?” He stood up and looked at me, concern suddenly flooding his face, “Why is your apartment such a disaster? It’s never that way.” I looked at the ground what was I going to say?
“I uh.. was looking for something earlier...” I ran my hand over my cheek, making sure that my hair was still covering it. He slowly moved his hand toward my face and brushed back my hair.
“Melody! Your cheek is bruised!” Worry exploded from his eyes.
“It’s nothing. I promise.” I said quietly, as I looked at the ground again. Even Rocky looked worried.
“Was is your dad?” He asked softly, lifting my chin up. I shook my head weakly. I couldn’t let him get in danger.
“Don’t lie. I can help. Was it your dad?” That question triggered all the pain, all the fear. I began to cry. He pulled me close and just held me. I looked up.
“Don’t you have a rehearsal to be at?” I asked timidly.
“That can wait. You are more important.”
