His Hazel Eyes

Chapter 7

I've been sitting in the same spot at this picnic table for 6 hours now and no one has come here once.

I put my head in my arms and close my eyes, listening to the soft wind move the leaves in the trees and lightly blowing my hair.

After a couple minutes someone sits down across from me. I move my head to look up and I see Gerard sitting there, he opens his sketch book and writes some words down, rips it out and folds it sliding it to me.

I raise my eyebrow at him grabbing the paper and opening it.

Are you okay?

I look back up at him but he has his head down, so I grab a pencil from my bag and write back.

I'm fine, I simply wright then fold it sliding it back to him. He opens it looks at me then shakes his head writing down something else.

He slides it back to me. I heard what she said to you... I feel my eyes water. I've been trying to forget about that.

Okay. I write sliding it back to him and putting my head back in my arms. I hear him sigh and crumple up the paper,Then the close of his sketch book and just like all the other times, he gets up and leaves me. I put my head in my hands and sob into them, "She was right." I think.

I jump when a pair of arms wrap around my shoulders pulling me against their chest. I look up and see Gerard looking down at me, I just lean my head back against his chest.He smells like coffee and smoke, and a faint sent of liquor... I feel him put his chin onto of my head hugging me a bit tighter so I move my arms around his torso hugging back.

After a little longer I let go and pull back whipping my eyes while looking down. "Sorry..." I say quietly "Don't be, its fine." he says softly.

"Oh, here." he hands me a piece of paper. "What is it?" I ask looking at him, "Our art project." he says and I raise my eye brow "We're doing a project together?" I ask looking over the paper with the mark a location and instructions.

"Yeah, she gave everyone partners." he says "What are we going to do?" I ask sitting it down on the table, "Well it's pretty late, come over to my house on Friday after school and I'll have some ideas for us." he says getting up and grabbing his bag and sketch book.

"Yeah..." I get up and grab my bag feeling sick just thinking about going home. "You okay?" he asks "I- yeah, I'm okay..." I look down at my shoes "Want me to walk with you?" he asks "Well you do live right by me." I shrug and we start to walk.

"I like your hair." he says breaking the silents. "Thanks, your drawings are pretty cool." I say "Yours are too." he says and we stop in front of my house "Well I guess I'll see you later." he says as I look at my house in fear.

There's a big crash sound and yelling then my name is heard. I turn to Gerard "You need to leave, now!" I say, he looks at me worried before handing me a piece of paper "Go!" I shove his arm and he walks into his house.

I look down and see its a number, his number. I walk up to my front door slowly opening it and stopping in to see a really pissed off father.

(This next part is going to be pretty bad if you are sensitive to parent abuse I advise you don't read this part)

"ANSWER ME WHEN I CALL YOU!" he yells

"I-I couldn't. M-my phone b-broke..." I say

"GOD YOUR SUCH A FUCKING IDIOT! WHY DIDN'T I JUST LEAVE YOU AT THE OLD HOUSE!" He yells getting in my face.

"I'm s-sorry..." I say quietly.

"I BET YOU WHERE OUT FUCKING SOME KIDS AT YOUR SCHOOL, BEING THE SLUT YOU ARE!" he yells and I start to shake.

"N-no I was just at the park..." he slams me against the wall and starts to undo my pants.

"NO STOP PLEASE!" I yell trying to push him away but he slaps me and nicks me to the ground.

"PLEASE I'M SORRY! PLEASE DON'T!" I beg. My virginity is the one thing my father hasn't taken from me and I refuse to let him take it.

He rips my shirt open exposing my bra  and very small boobs. "HELP!" I yell hoping someone for some reason might hear.

I start to cry feeling like I'm going to lose the last thing that means so much to me to the man I hate the most.

"HELP!" I yell again but this time someone knocks on are door. My eyes go wide and I try to make as much noise as possible but my father covers my mouth so I bang my feet on the floor.

'Please don't leave, please...' I beg thinking to myself. The person knocks again but this time harder.My dad gets up and I lay there a crying mess. He answers the door and I hear a woman's voice.I sit up and cover myself with my arms, my dad only has the door open to where he has his head sticking out and is talking to the lady.

I stand up still holding my arms over my chest and go to see who it might be. I stand pretty far back until I'm in view and I can see the lady, and two boys.One sees me and my eyes go wide. Gerard! My eyes start to water. Now my dad will try to hurt him!

My dad turns to me opening the door a little more "Do you know them?!" he almost yells.I shake my head, now fearing what he might do to them if I said yes. He walks up to my and slaps me again but this time he gets knocked out right after.

I look at my father on the ground and then someone grabs my arm, yanking me out of my house. I look and see its Gerard.When we get to his house, he takes me down to what I'm guessing is his room in the basement. Still holding my arms over my chest he throws me a shirt to change into an then he heads up stairs.

I quickly change and look down to see its a Blink182 t-shirt and it goes pass my butt. He comes back down shutting the door and paces his room.I sit there shaking. He's going to try to hurt Gerard, and what he'll do to him might be even worse than anything he's done to me.
