Catching Carter

Part 6

Carter's POV-

I learned that the little girls name is Molly. She's very sweet, I believe she is the sweetest girl I have met. Molly was only 3 years old, soon to be 4, and believed that Hunter was her uncle since he has been the one taking care of her since she came down here. I was amazed at the fact that he actually took care of her.

"Mommy" Molly cried out as she walked over to me. I smiled slightly at her before picking her up. I already felt a motherly connection to her. Maybe I was ment to be here, meant to meet her and see the way Hunter can be. "Mommy I don't like it here. Uncle Hunter is always getting hurt. Why is that man hurting him? Why did he hurt you?" Molly asked in a quite voice.

"I don't know sweetie but when he comes back I want you to hide under the stairs okay? Don't come out until he leaves. I don't want you getting hurt." I said to her. She looked at me for a minute before nodding her small head.

"That reminds me. Carter you aren't allowed to talk back to him, yell at him, or disobey him. If you do... you get beaten." Hunter said as he came and sat besides me. I scotched away from him slightly. I watched as he sighed. "I'm not going to hurt you. I never wanted to hurt you." Hunter said as he looked down at the floor.

"Then how do you explain 8th grade?" I asked with anger in my voice.

"I was-" he was interrupted with the door opening at the top of the stairs. I lightly put Molly on the ground and pushed her under the stairs like I had told her to go earlier.

I stared at the stairs as they creaked under his weight. Worry filled me as I didn't know what the hell he had planned or his reasoning for being down here.

"Well. I see your up and behaving." he said with a chuckle. I glared athim as he walked closer to me and Hunter.

"Why are we here?" I asked in a strong voice.

"Well your here because well I've always wanted you but this idiot got in the way" The man sneered at Hunter.

I looked over at Hunter to see him glaring at the man.

"Why did you want me?" I asked slowly.

"Well when I moved into town I saw this ungreatful little girl. She didnt appreciate anything. I decided that I would teach her how to be good but when I came to her house. She had a friend over whosaw me coming and well yada bing she is now here"

"And this girl is me? I was and am not an ungrateful girl." i stated. I watched as his eyes hardened and turned into slits. Shit. Was all i could think to say. '...Carter you are not allowed to talk back to him...' how could I forget so fast?

I watched as he stomped tords me.

"Hunter move your ass. I need to teach her to keep her mouth shut." the man sneered. I watched hunter get ready to stand up to him but I quickly nudged him away. I dont want anyone but me to get hurt for my actions. I saw him give me a nervous look and one full of concern as he moved away. Out of the corner of my eye I could see him moving tords the stairs where Molly was hiding.

My eyes focused back onto the man infront of me. I jumped back when I realised how close he had come.

I watched his sinister eyes stare into mine and slowly trail over my body. I felt disgusted, like his eyes where raping me. I want to scream or runnaway and hide, but I couldnt. He would most likly take his anger out on Molly or/and Hunter and theres no way I can get around this man to them and get all of us up the stairs.

I blinked at him with no emotion in my eyes. I hope I wasnt showing any emotion.

I watched as his shoulders raised in a threatning way. I scootched away from him and slipped off the bed like literaly. My back slamed on to the floor qith a thump.

His booming laughter echoed through the room. I could hear his feet hit the floor as he walked.

I was yanked by my hair up into a standing position. I screamed in agony the pain of every hair being yanked. My scalp was on fire, searing, and burning in pain. I snapped my eyesbopen to aee a fist barreling at me. I threw my arms up to peotect me face only for my body to jerk and the air was knoked out of me. Pain invaded my stomach as I gasped for air.

He yanked on my hair which caused me to whimpear. The yank made my head fly back to look up at him. His head came closer to my face. I could deel his breath on my ear.

"You ungratfull little Bitch" he whispered.

I bared my teath at him.

"Your wrong. Your the ungreatfull son of a b-" I screamed but was cut off when his fist slamed into my jaw. My head swung to the side at the impact while my jaw was onfire and sore. I groaned as the pain increased on the top of my head.

I glared up at the man who thought he was all this and that. Well he is nothing but a fucked up human.

His eyes held only anger unlike before when they had a slight glint to them. His eyes where closed off, hidden almost. Like he had a secret of some sorts.

I glanced at thw scar on the side of his face and knew it had to do with that. I senced him stiffen as if he relized what I was looking at. I looked back to his eyes and saw them filled with pain but the anger came back as fast as it had left.

" dont you ever talk to me like that again!" he shouted as his fist slamed into my temple.

My eyes slamed shut as the impact hit me and I was flung to the floor with the force which sent me into complete and utter darkness.
