Broken And Alone (Up for adoption)

Part 16

Mitch

I felt myself waking up but kept my eyes shut. As I became more coherent I started to hear people talking. It took a minute to realize where I am. I am in the hospital. I think I am on Scott... I rubbed my face carefully on what was beneath me. It was firm and warm and I felt a hand move to my back.
It has to be Scott.
I focused on listening to what he was saying.
"I have never seen something so horrible in my life." He said rubbing my back so gently it was as if they where not there. "He is so bad guys... His whole body is covered in bruises. He has burn marks and cuts..." He paused and I heard him take a deep breath. His chest was moving up and down slowly. "His back and legs had whip marks all over them. They said they looked like they were from a belt, a rope and possibly even a small chain."
"This sounds like some sadistic horror story..." I heard Kristin say.
"Is there anything else they found?" Kevin.
"They said it was clear he had been... raped... Many times. He also is..." I felt a warm tear fall onto me.
"He is what, Scott?"
"He's hurting himself too... His arms are covered in cuts that were self inflicted."
"No... Mitch wouldn't do that... He promised me he would never do that again..." Kirstie said quietly
"He's done this before...?" Scott sounded alarmed.
"He started doing it in high school... I was the only one who found out and I made him stop. He promised he would never ever do it again..." She said.
Scott shifted me and my head was resting on his shoulder. I yawned and stretched before opening my eyes.
Everyone was a wet eyed mess.
"Good morning Mitchie..." Scott said. "How'd you sleep?"
"Good" I said, even though he haunted my dreams.
Scott was about to say something when I suddenly felt very cold and my whole body started trembling. My mouth tasted like blood and it felt like someone had electrocuted me. I heard Scott scream before the blackness took over.

Scott

I held Mitch in my arms when suddenly his eyes became wide and unfocused. His eyes rolled back and his body started convulsing
"Mitch!" I screamed holding him so he didn't fall off the bed. Nurses came running in and took Mitch from me, yelling at us to leave the room.
"No! He needs me!" I cried ask was being drug from the room by Kevin and Avi.
Once we were outside I stood outside looking at the chaos from the window.
They grabbed the EAD and I heard someone yell clear. A nurse noticed me standing there and shut the blinds. I collapsed and started crying. Just when he was starting to get better...
I felt everyone's arms around me and I leaned against someone (Kevin's) chest and sobbed.
"We need you to follow me." A nurse said. She lead us to a small closed room.
I took a seat and she told us we could stay here as long as we needed.
I folded my arms on the table and laid my head on them.
"He just woke up... He was finally getting better..." I mumbled.
I felt Kirst rub my back.

In about 3 hours we were sitting in Mitch's room again. The doctor told us that he had a seizure.
I was lying beside Mitch, hugging him close.
Suddenly I heard his voice and it broke my heart.
"Am I aloud to come home Scott...?"
"Not yet Mitchie, they need you to stay for a few more days to make sure you are okay." I said. He started crying slightly.
"I meant... come home... To you..." He said looking up to meet my eyes.
He thought I was going to send him back to Travis... He asked if he was aloud to stay at our home...
I felt my heart shatter into a million pieces.
"Of course you can Mitch... I will never let Travis hurt you again." I said.
He held up a pinky.
"Promise...?" He said in a quiet voice.
I looped my pinky with his. "I promise."
He sighed happily and leaned into me.
Kirstie and Avi and Kevin came back about 30 minutes later with Starbucks for me and Mitch.
As we sipped our warm drinks there was a knock at the door.
"Good news! Mitch, they said you can go home tonight. We Just need to check you over one more time." She said with a bright smile.
Mitch squealed adorably and hugged me.
The nurse left and everyone was talking about how happy we are for Mitch to come back.
"Are you sure I can come home... With you...?" He asked.
Everyone looked at him.
"Of course!" I said.

Mitch

Scott and Avi lifted me and moved me into a wheel chair.
I thanked the doctor and Scott wheeled me to the car. He lifted me and set me in the passenger seat and Kevin folded my wheel chair and put it in the trunk.
When we got home they wheeled me into the living room and Wyatt jumped on my lap, purring and rubbing himself into my chest.
They said I need to use the wheel chair for a few days.
They all agreed to stay with us until I could walk and do things on my own again.

-----2 weeks later-----

"Mitch! Do you want to watch a movie with me?" Scott asked from my doorway.
"No thanks Scott." I said looking up from my phone.
He frowned.
"alright. Well I will be out there is you want to join me..." He said before walking away.
I looked back on my phone.
I was on Twitter talking to some fans when I got a message from a blocked number.

'Oh Mitchie
Did you really think it would be that easy?
You will be mine again soon, pet.
And this time I won't let you get away.'

I threw my phone and clasped a hand over my mouth as I received multiple photos of me and Scott over the past two weeks.
Us leaving the hospital.
Us at the store.
At the park.
Him pushing my wheel chair.
And the last one was the window of our apartment, where you could see me looking out...
"Scott!" I screamed.
