Haven's POV (Haven Above ^)
Chapter 1 - Why Haven?
I stare quietly out the window. Chewing on my bottom lip. Watching as the moving truck pulled up outside. Today was the day, today I turned 18. My two older brothers, they're twins, Noah and Keaton, they're 21, climbed out. After years of abuse I can finally get away from my mother. The boys tried getting custody of me multiple times but the judge refused.
I watch as Noah opens the bay door, and Keaton grabs the first box, loading it on. I grab our fathers ashes and folded up flag. Yes, ashes. Our dad died when I was 15. He was a Marine. He deployed to Afghanistan, a fellow Marine was in trouble so he stayed behind to pull him out of the truck, the truck exploded and they were gone. It's been three years and it stills like yesterday that his command was here informing us of his death.
Our mom cheated on dad when I was 8. We caught her and told dad, who divorced her a year after. He was able to take us kids and the car. When he died, we were forced back into her care.
As soon as Noah and Keaton graduated they joined the police academy, and were immediately hired onto our local department after. They recently got loaned out to the DEA for an assignment. Which is why we're moving, the assignment is 3 hours away and they don't want to leave me behind. They're going undercover in a gang in San Diego. Who would suspect twins as cops, which is why the DEA snatched them as soon as they could.
"Sis! Get your stuff from your room, now! We're running on a time frame." I rolled my eyes at Noah's bossy tone. Giving him a look with raised brows. He knew speaking to me like that would only make me do a task slower. "Haven, just go get your stuff and quit pushing his buttons.." I smile at Keaton who was shaking his head in amusement. "Okay bubba." Keaton has and always will hold that nickname. Growing up the way we did, we really only had each other, it's what made us close.
Surprisingly, it only took us three hours to get all of our stuff loaded up, I quickly check my room to make sure that I got everything I needed. The door slams shut making me jump and flip around. Coming eye to eye with my so called mother and her 'friend'. A smirk later on both of their faces. "W-what are you doing?" My mother quickly walked to me, her hand making contact with my cheek. "Shut up little bitch. Okay baby, I'll watch the door, you have fun. Just like what we promised." I held my stinging cheek as realization hit. He started to approach me, I open my mouth to scream for Noah, for Keaton, for anyone. His mouth covered mine, and he started an assault on my lips as tears streamed down my face.
Trying to push him off me with no avail, he yanked my sweats down and I began to thrash around harder, trying to get away from him. His hand wrapped around my throat, squeezing. Running out of air and seeing black dots, unable to fight back. This animal takes my virginity, before my brothers even realize they're here. So
much for them protecting me from now on.(Noah)
The bay door slams closed as I place a lock on it. Preparing the now full uhaul for the trip ahead of us. "Yo, Noah, where's Haven?" I frown, now thinking of it, I haven't seen her in awhile. I look around catching sight of the broken down grayish car in the back. Mom. Shit, no. Running inside I hear sobs coming from upstairs. Following the sound upstairs and to Haven's room. I pulled my pistol from it holster on my hip. Quickly opening her door, Keaton on my heels.
"Don't move. Put your hands up. Now." My eyes catch Havens seats on one side of the room and he on the other, hunches over in a fetal position. Blood all over her. That's when I saw red. This fucker took my little sisters innocence. I holster my weapon before my fist made contact with his face. I could see Keaton helping Haven in the corner of my eye. Sliding her pants on and taking his hoodie off, sliding it onto her. He grabbed his cuffs, cuffing the man who just received blows to his face.
Tears overwhelmed my eyes as I walked towards Haven. "I am so sorry Haven. I wasn't here when you needed me." Wrapping my arms around her and just holding her. Before pulling away and yanking the piece of shit up off the floor. "Keaton, grab her keys and take her to the ER they need to examine her. I'm taking him to the station. He's lucky I didn't kill him."
I throw him into the back of the cruiser and sped to the station, Haven is pretty much the stations little sister. They won't go easy on him. Throwing him into a cell I walk to the chiefs office. "You have a new guy in the cell, his names Sam Harley, he just raped Haven, she's at the hospital I'll bring her by afterwards for a statement and her hospital forms to add to the case. But I have to get to the hospital now, I'm gonna have jake take me. Here is the cruiser keys. I won't be needing them for a while." I set the keys down and walk out, heading to the hospital.
The automatic doors opened us up to the ER. My eyes quickly find Keaton. "How's she doing?" He shrugs, his eyes showing no emotion. "They're giving her the rape kit, they want to make sure she's not pregnant or didn't catch anything. How did the guys take it?" My eyes watch the busy nurses, flitting around the halls. " they don't actually know-" I heard a commotion coming down the hall, Keaton smiled softly. "Now they do." Almost the whole crew was here, they sat down without a word, waiting with us.
"Family for Haven Sumner?" Everyone stood up but only Keaton and I approached the doctor. "Haven is doing okay. Some of the vaginal wall was torn so it will be a huge miracle if she can get pregnant in the future. So far all the test have came back negative, be there are some cultures that will take a little and she needs to do testing at 2, 4, and 8 months to be sure. When's she's released she'll be given plan B please make sure to follow the directions for it to work correctly. All in all she's going to be okay. I'd refer her to get a grief counselor as soon as possible, it'll help her." We shake his hand and before long she walks out of the room stopping shocked at the full waiting room, for her.
My arms were already pulling her into a tight hug, noticing the slight jump from her when it happened. "I'm never letting you go again, I should've been by your side and because I wasn't, this happened." She pushed me back and grabbed my hands, meeting my eyes. "Noah, this wasn't your fault, I promise, I don't blame you and you shouldn't blame yourself." She smiled sadly at everyone, looking scared that they might try to approach her. I gave them a look over her head telling them to be chill about it. I look at my baby sister. She's such a strong woman now. Why would the world need to hurt her as much as it has.
