A Love To Never Be Forgotten (Leondre Devries fanfiction)

Chapter 28

Chloe's P.O.V

~1 week later~

Lately I've been spacing out; I'm still trying to process what Brooklyn has told; I know it's only one thing that not a lot of people think about, but the news that she said broke me. I have been lied to for so long. At first I thought she was going to show me some pictures, not a bloody adoption certificate.

"Chloe?" Someone  said whilst waving there hand infront of my face getting my attention" Are you okay?" Leondre asks, I simply just nod my head and look down at my hands. "No your not, there is something wrong; and I'm getting very worried for you. Will you..." Leo kept rambling as I started having a flashback.

~Flashback to when Chloe was 13~

The door to my room burst open as I was doing my homework, I screamed as my dad grabbed me by the hair and forced me down the stairs. He pushed me and I missed the last step and fell.

"Get up you worthless child!" He yelled and kicked my leg. Once I was up he started pulling me into the kitchen.

"Dad please stop you're hurting me." I cried out, but he didn't listen so I started to fight back.

He would let go of me for a split second and I would try to run, but as soon as I made it to the door, he would grab my wrist and pull me back. 

"Let her go!" I heard my brother yell from the top of the stairs. Dad chuckled darkly before grabbing my hair and yanking me towards him.

"Oh yea, what are you going to do about it huh, I could kill you so fast if you ever tried to protect this worthless little shit." He said yanking my hair more as he talked, I whimpered every time he yanked on it.

"Come on stop your hurting her, she is your fucking daughter and my little sister, just leave her alone."  Luke said hoping our dad would let go of me but instead he pulled out a pocket knife and pushed it against my stomach. 

He has never done anything like this before, I don't know what to do I was frozen with fear. Luke was standing at the top of the stairs shocked by our dads movement.

"Why are you doing this dad?" I asked my voice full of fear making it hard to speak. He grinned widely at my brother and pulled the knife back. I thought he was finished and would walk away and there wouldn't be as much pain. But the pain increased as he stabbed my thigh.

I scream and fall to the ground, Luke came rushing down the steps coming to my aid. He was so close but he was stopped when a gun was pulled out. 

"Dad please... Just stop. There is n-no reason why y-you should b-be doing t-this." I stutter trying to stop the pain. I cried out in pain when he removed the knife forcefully from my thigh and walked out the door. Once he was gone I was sobbing uncontrollably. 

Luke ran into the kitchen grabbing a few things; there were things slamming or falling to the floor. He came back with keys and a rag; he placed the rag on my leg and and picked me up. 

"Where a-are we g-going?" I ask looking at him. His jaw was clenched and his eyes were glossy.

"We are going to the hospital." He said sternly keeping a good grip on me, making sure I don't fall.

"L-Luke..." I stutter out once he put me in the passenger side of the car. "It hurts." I cried as I held my stomach. He furrowed his eyebrows together because of what I'm saying. I lifted up my hand that was covered in blood; he gasped and ran over to the drivers side.

"Hang in there Chloe; just look at me no matter what." He said as he sped towards the hospital. I grabbed his hand and squeezed it one last time before passing out because I thought I would never see him again, I thought I was dying.

~End Of Flashback~

My head shot up to the sound of glass shattering. My cheeks stained with a mix of wet tears and dry tears. 

"Chloe why are you crying? I have been trying to get your attention for the past 30 minutes." Leondre says taking my hands in his and rubbing the backs softly with his thumbs. "What has been going on with you; you've been spacing out and crying this whole week. Your worrying me." He added and kissed my cheek. "What happened when you went to see your sister Chlo?" He asked.

He was clearly worried and curious, but I'm not ready to tell him yet, I'm not ready to tell anyone yet. At times like this I wish Luke was still here, he was always there for, Brooklyn was always out partying and couldn't take care of me. Luke would know what to say right now, and he would know how to calm me down.

I could feel my anxiety start to kick in, my breathing became uneven and my lungs hurt. Leo let go of my hands and grabbed my face making me look at him in the eyes. 

"Chloe calm down, try to take deep breaths okay." He said calmly then rushing into kitchen. He came back with a glass of water. "Here, I'm going to call your sister to see what she wants me to do." He said and started to call her.

"No don't... I'm okay, I promise." I said reassuring him. He shook his head not believing me. "Really Leo I'm fine don't worry about it okay." 

"No you're not, don't tell me your fine Chloe. I know you and I definitely know you're not okay. You say that when someone asks if you're okay, and you don't ever look at anyone in the eyes when you lie." He said standing up taking my hands in his again. "So I want you to look at me in the eyes and tell you are perfectly fine, not okay, perfectly fine." He added looking down at me.

"I-I'm fine." I whispered tears forming in my eyes again. "No I'm not fine it has been bothering me since I was told and I just don't have the guts to tell anyone." I sobbed into his shirt whilst hugging him. "I'm adopted Leo." I whispered again.
