Chapter 9- Like who?
Holly P.O.V
Sarah and I were still tidying up the costume room. It was packed. We had been talking a lot. She was really nice. I had told her about what happened and she understood.
"Russell is a nice guy like that. He helped me get away from a terrible relationship." She said.
"Really?" I asked.
"Yeah. I once walked in with my ex, Matthew, shouting at me. Russell managed to get him away from me while I'm at work. Any way Russell takes me into his dressing room. He asked me what was happening. I told him that Matthew had been beating me. Russell let me stay over at his for a bit with him and Cerys, I was so grateful.
"Anyway Russell gets threatened by Matthew but he fights back getting him away from me. I'm glad of it. I now have a fiancé."
"What's he called?"
"Brandon." She said with a smile on her face. I smiled back at her. "I'm really grateful. If it wasn't for him I would be stuck in a abusive relationship. He really like to help people."
"Yeah. I'm glad I met him." I said.
"You know he fancies you." She said.
"What?"
"Yeah. It's obvious. The way he wants you to stay with him with him all the time. It's not just that he wants to protect you. He's afraid to let you go."
Realisation hit my mind. He likes me. His eyes clearly show it. He likes me. Me. A girl who isn't anything special.
Jon looks at me like that though. Oh fuck.
"But Jon looks at me like that."
"Oh dear."
"What do I do?"
"I don't know. I have never been in that position."
"I need to go and sort-" I was interrupted by the door opening.
"Hi girls." It was Russell. I couldn't be in this awkward situation anymore. I ran out of the room and ran out of the studio. I could here Russell following me. I then saw Jon approaching the studio.
I turned and ran to the park. I couldn't deal with this. I like them both. I can't have them fighting over me. I need to get as far away as possible.
"Holly." I herd both Jon and Russell shout. They were close. I stopped and turned to face them.
"I know how you two both feel about me. I can't deal with this. I'm ruining your life." I said. Russell and Jon both looked at each other. "Your eyes show it. I have only just realised it."
"Holly!" Russell said looking behind me. I turned to see my step dad.
"Hello killer." My step dad said. His fist then hit the side of my face...
Russell P.O.V
Holly hit the floor. Jon ran to her while I ran to the guy. "You fucker." I said as I hit the side of his face and kicked him in the balls. "Leave her alone. What she done to you?!" He hit the floor.
"She killed her father." He said. I felt tears in my eyes.
"No she didn't. He died of cancer." I said kicking him. Tears were falling from my eyes.
"Russell." Jon shouted. I looked at him. I saw blood near Holly. "Leave him. I've phoned an ambulance."
I turned back to the guy on the floor. "I would run if I were you, unless you want the police after you." I said. The guy got up and ran.
I rushed to Jon and Holly. "She will be fine Russell." Said Jon. I sure hope so.
