We got to aunt Janes house and she said lux I had to share until Lux room was dry from the painted.it was around 8:00 and lux was yawning up a storm so I tucked her into bed and when I came just Michael was sitting on the couch watching the walking dead. I smiled and looked him just thinking maybe just maybe this will be our new start.
*micheals p.o.v*
I watched as Alex put lux to bed and than she finished putting lux down she stood there looking at me maybe she was thinking I'm not sure of what but what I am sure of is I want to get to know her.
Alex's p.o.v
I saw Michael staring at me and I guess he saw me Because he patted down on the couch next to him I sighed and walked over to him and sat down next to him we sat there for a couple minutes before Michael spoke up "so Alex how old are" I giggled just by the fake British accent he was trying to do "well Michael I am 17 years old" he looked at my check than down to my neck I guess I didn't hide them good enough
Micheals p.o.v
I looked into her beautiful gray green eyes than I took notice to her check and her neck they were both bruised I put my hand on her cheek and I lightly rubbed my fingers over her bruised cheek I watched her eyes fill up with tears "are you okay" was all I asked she looked at me and shook her head no "I'm not I've watched my dad beat my mom I've felt his hands on me in all the wrong ways around my throat against my cheek I've listened to him scream at my sister for leaving her jacket on a chair Michael a stupid chair Michael he's raped me I've never told anyone not even my mum my aunt doesn't know just the man who stole the one thing I could never get back the one thing I wanted to give to the love of my life fuck I'm not even sure if I believe in love anymore" she spoke with tears pouring out her eyes now I pulled her into my arms "Alex please don't cry I know I haven't known you for more than a day but I'll promise you I'll protect you, I'll protect lux I'll make sure no one touches the way you don't want to be touched I make sure you never get hurt again" she nodded her yes and than she grabbed my hand and nodded her head again and said "I'll be okay" sounding like she's trying to convince herself more than anyone else she brought my hand up to her lips and kissed my hand softly and than my cheek and said she's gonna go to bed and i promised I'll be here in the morning I watched as she walked up stairs than I asked myself is she the one I sure as hell hope so. I don't care if she was raped she can still be my princess she can be my rock her and lux they can be my rock all I need to know is that she's safe her and lux.
