"Can I talk to you?" Sebastian asked. I just nod.
"Alone." He says. Ryder and Juily walk out. I hear the door close and Sebastian sighs.
"They're abusing you aren't they?" He asks surprisingly calmly.
My head shots up and I look at him shocked. You should've pushed them away when you had the chance. I know. You can't lie now. It's out. I know. Just tell them. No, I will die and they might too. Save their lives. Yeah, right. Do it. By getting myself killed. Technically. No!
"Nichole." I look at him in the eye. Sadness and anger was all I could see.
I shake my head.
"Don't lie." He says.
I shake my head again.
"Nichole, you need to go to the police."
"I CAN'T!" I whimper.
"Yes, you can." He says.
"Believe me. I can't." I say.
"Why?" He asks.
"They watch me. They threatened me. They have friends who work there. They'll win, I'll lose. I'll die, you'll die." I whisper.
"Nichole—" He starts.
"Please I beg you. Don't tell anyone specially the police. Nobody knows except you. Stay quiet about it. Please. You'll get into my problems. Stay out. Okay. I'll fix this." I say.
"So it's true, they do abuse of you?" He asks.
I nod and I clench my fist.
"You can't let them treat you like that." He says.
"I know, but I have no choice." I say.
"Yes you do. Promise me you'll leave that place." He says.
"I can't until I'm 18." I say.
"When do you turn 18?" He asks.
"Two months." I answer.
"That's too much." He says.
"I'll try to stay away as much as possible. I'll go to the police just not right now. Okay." I say.
He nods.
"I won't stay quiet for long." He says.
"Don't tell them or anybody, hell not even Juily knows. Just keep this between us." I say. He nods and walks over to me. He hugs me and I hug him back.
The door opens and Ryder walks in with Juily and Logan behind him.
He coughs and we pull away.
"Stay quiet." I whisper in his ear.
Ryder walks over to me and hands me a cup of water. I take it and drink it all.
"I think I need to head home and rest. I don't want to get in trouble." I say. I feel Sebastian stiffen, he knows what I mean by trouble.
"You should stay here." Sebastian says. I glare at him and he does the same.
"No, I've caused much trouble it's better if I go home. Thank you for everything guys." I smile weakly.
"I'll take you home." Ryder says.
"No it's fine. Can you please take Juily home?" I ask.
"I'll take her." Sebastian speaks up.
"Let me drive you home please." Ryder says. I sigh. Be nice, they're trying to help. Well look where nice got me, now Sebastian knows. True. Just say yes.
