Beep beep beep Destiny rolled over and pushed the snooze button on her alarm she awoke to a girl next to her then she realized it was Ashton. But she now realized it looked like she had a big red mark around her throat she didn't notice it because it was usually covered by a ribbon. She nudged Ashton and said "what happened to your neck said Destiny"? Ashton replied with "a couple weeks ago dad put a rope around my next and choked me because I accidentally broke a plate when I was washing the dishes he said I needed to be punished".
"Oh my god that's horrible" said Destiny. "I know" said Ashton "the doctor said it will be a scar for a little while" said Ashton. "How did u hide it from your mom" said Destiny? "I didn't I told her but she didn't believe me said Ashton". "She finally listened when one of her friends said that my dad told her husband that he raped me and abused me while my mom was at work and then she pressed charges on him" said Ashton. I feel so bad for you said Ashton I wish I could of helped. "I do to but you couldn't, and I was sworn not to tell about anything he did to me he said if I did he would kill me, I was so scared that I didn't tell anyone" said Ashton.
Well I'm here for you Ashton said Destiny. Thanks said Ashton. Then Ashton looked out the window then said can I stay here with you for awhile because it will take awhile for my mom and my dad to go to court and he's staying with her until then and I just do t want to be there said Ashton. Sure said Destiny you stay as long as you want said Ashton. Then Ashton walked over to Destiny and gave her a hug Destiny hugged her back then Ashton started to cry "it was so horrible he raped me beat me and other stuff I feel so bad he broke my arm to when I was littler because I said no or something, he told my mom I fell off the swing, but I didn't he broke it" said Ashton. Destiny held her tighter and said "Its ok your safe now he can't hurt you said Destiny and I'll protect you if he comes near you I'll beat the fuck out of him Ok" said Destiny. "Thank you" said Ashton.
Destiny and Ashton hugged for a little while longer then they both went into the bathroom their were to bathtubs they both got into take a shower then Ashton fell to the ground and said owe then Destiny got out and said "oh my god are you ok" said Destiny? Ashton said "yeah its just he broke one of my ribs like a week ago and the surgery scar hurts". "Oh ok" said Destiny. The. the two finished their showers got dressed and got on the bus they sat toghethor and listened to music all the way to school. When they got to the school the principle how are girls doing they responded with good then they headed for class. Finally the final bell rang then they both got on the bus and listened to music when they got him Destiny said "are you okay" Ashton. Ashton replied with a "yeah I'm just cold and a little worried". "Why are you worried" said Destiny. Ashton said "because if my parents don't get a divorce I might have to visit him" "but if I do can I just live here with you" said Ashton. Then Destiny put her arm around her and said "sure".
In Destiny's head she was thinking finally I have a friend.
Someone I can trust then she went back to reality.
