The girl in the shadows: Cameron Dallas

Chapter 42

Chapter 42

  Caroline's POV

  The flight back to Chicago was heart breaking.
  The entire flight I was just thinking about what could have been.

  My phone was ringing nonstop, so I eventually turned it off.
  I was supposed to land in 10 minutes and I still didn't know what I was going to do.

  I was seriously considering not going back to my foster parents house.
I had enough money now to stay in a hotel for a couple of weeks, but all to soon my money would be gone.

    Half and hour later and I'm standing in front of a house I've grown to absolutely hate.

  Slowly I turned the handle and stepped in the doorway. The house was dead silent.
  I walked in and almost dropped my suitcase. My foster dad was sitting on the couch just staring at a blank TV screen.

There was no emotion on his face at all. I was about to head upstairs when his head jerked to look at me.

  Hatred flamed up in his eyes.
He stood up and charged at me. Before I had a chance to even scream he pushed me against the wall with his hands around my neck.

  "This is all your fault!! My wife left me because of you!" He spat in my face.

  My vision was slowly fading. Finally he let go and I fell to the floor coughing.
  He kicked me one good time before storming out of the house.

It took every ounce of energy I had to  get to my feet and walk to the door.
   I'm pretty sure I looked like I just was hit by a car.

  I was walking to Samantha's house, hoping her parents were there.
   There was bruises from his hands wrapped around my neck and my lips was busted open and bleeding.

The pain in my stomach was almost unbearable.
  Finally I made it to her house and her little sister was in the front yard playing.

When she saw me her face went from pure joy to terror.
  She grabbed my hand a led me through the house the kitchen where I could hear everyone talking and laughing.

  "Daddy!" She yelled when we reached the kitchen.
    He looked from her then up to me and instantly jumped up.

"Someone call 911 now"
That was the last thing I remembered before falling to the floor.
 

   Nash's POV

Tomorrow.
  Tomorrow was the next flight to Chicago and I was pissed.
  
We were all in the ballroom sitting in a circle on the stage waiting.

  For what i don't know. All of our phones were in front of us with an extension cord with chargers plugged in.

   The first one to ring was Samantha's.

"Dad?!" She yelled.

  I could slowly see her emotions change from worry to anger to tears running down here face.

She said a few more things then hung up.

We were all waiting for her to say something. Anything.

"Caroline is in the hospital, her foster dad almost killed her and now she's um...."

She started crying really hard. It took her a while to regain her composure.

"She's in a coma" she finally said and I could feel my heart drop to the floor.
