Beaten (LT FanFic)(Editing)

Chapter 6: Hurt

Skylar -

I woke up in a not so familiar place . I looked down to see a giant black T-shirt on me and tattooed arms around my waist . I carefully turned around to see Lau sleeping peacefully , holding me as close to him as possible . I pushed myself closer to him and started playing in his hair . He stirred and I felt him pull me even closer before opening his eyes . He turned over and got a mint before speaking . I guess he doesn't like the morning breath feeling .

"Hey belle ." He greeted . He kissed my forehead and sat us up . I know I have a lot of explaining to do . I don't have to come up with a lie because this time , it's true . "If you want to know why I was acting the way I was was because I uhh .. Saw the person who killed my father come in and uh .. Do this ( slides thumb across neck ) ." Its true though ... Daryl did kill our father . I try not to think about it because I think it's too good to be true .

One day , Daryl and my father were arguing . My father pointed his finger at Daryl for smoking weed in our house , and Daryl got mad . He and my dad ended up fist fighting with my dad winning . Daryl being careless , cracked a vase over my dad's head making him stumble back and fall down the stairs . He ended up breaking his neck . My mom was horrified , angry and scared . She didn't know what to do . Daryl didn't even have a single drop of remorse on his face or in his actions . That's why my mother left , to get away from her so call son . She thinks I left because I was forced my a gun to my head the day after he first beat me . It was the scariest moment in my whole entire life .

I didn't realize I was crying until he wiped my tears away . He looked in my eyes and lifted my chin . "Hey , is okay , he no going to kill my baby you hear me ?" He whispered to me as leaned his forehead on mine . I uttered a small yes as he caressed my cheeks with both thumbs . I leaned back and got up to go to the bathroom . I walked in , did my business , washed my hands and came back out .

"You limping belle ." Lau said as he walked up to me to get a better look . I had to think quick . "( cough , cough ) When you umm dragged me out of IHOP , my heel bent to the right and hurt my ankle ." Even though my ankle was killing me , that's not why . When Daryl took advantage of me and threw me in my room , I landed on my ankle then my side . My nose still hurts from being cracked by his knuckles last night too .

"Oh I sorry belle . Here allow me ." He apologized , then swept me off my feet . I giggled as he looked down at me and pulled me closer to him . "I'll never let go ." He whispered to me . I blushed as we made our way downstairs . He held me in his lap . "What do you want to do bebe ?" Lau asked , occupied with my hair . "I don't know ... Let's watch TV ." I suggested . He simply pressed a button on the remote , and the TV came on . He laid down , so he was holding me with my back to him and our legs tangled .

I can't be live he's still holding me . I mean , I knew he said he won't let him get me , but ... I didn't expect him to be so protective . Its not that I don't like it , which I do , it's just that I've never had anyone to actually hold me . To care for me as much as Lau does . I really hope Daryl doesn't do anything stupid to mess up the rest of my day .

I turned around to see Lau really into the TV show that was on . I scooted up a little so I was directly in his face . He smiled and gave me a tender and sweet kiss on the lips . I love Lau's kisses . He's all about being soft and gentle . He knows how to take care of me even though it's only been a few days since we met . I still can't believe God just sent him my way . I finally have something to look forward to each and everyday . Just as long as Daryl doesn't change up anything .
