Jake!!! Why must it be him and not Tristen. All the memories started flooding back to me and I began to cry. Then not a moment to soon I felt a familiar shock in my face. I realized his hand made contact with my cheek and I instantly feel to the ground. I laid there for a moment until my wrists were grabbed to pull me up. Then again another slap to the face. But this time I didn't fall to the ground, I just stood there ready to take another blow. And soon enough another blow hit my face. I kept hearing him cuss under his breath. Another blow and this time I fell to the ground. He tried to grab my wrists but I pulled them away to quickly. Now I felt pain in my stomach and soon enough I had realized he was non-stopping kicking my ribs. Pain was shooting through my entire body. The sad part was that I was letting him do this to me. And the saddest part is that there was no one here to help.
Where was my knight-in-shining armor. Blow after blow to my ribs had me thinking I had no savior. No one to protect me from danger. No one to keep me warm at night. And no one to help me right now. He kept saying, "Your mine!" or he would say, "You filthy whore, trying to run from me!" More tears started running down my face and when he had realized I was crying he grabbed my wrists and pick me up off of the ground. He told me, "You think you can run from me! Well think again baby because I'm not going anywhere! You have always been mine and you always be mine. Be smart in this response when I ask you do you understand?" What else was I supposed to say so I just nodded. I felt anger in his eyes and I was soon ready for another blow to my face.
"Just hit me already! Because that is all you do to girls! You abuse them and don't even-" There another blow to the face. And I was beginning to become unconscious. My eyes began to open and close. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Tristen but there was no Jake. I heard Tristen's gentle words, "Come on Kyndall, stay awake for a little while longer." But I couldn't stay awake. No matter how hard I tried I just couldn't. And then when I heard sirens in the background I soon let darkness take over me.
Beep....Beep....Beep....Beep....Beep
"Wake up Kyndall. Please, you can't go!" Words that sounded so familiar but I couldn't make out who they were coming from. "Please wake up Kyndall!" I was trying so hard to open my eyes but they wouldn't budge. I felt someone squeeze my hand and then I remember everything that happened. I was taking blow after blow to my face. Then getting kicks in the ribs from Jake. Then the last thing I could remember was seeing Tristen's face before I blacked out. "Please Kydnall!" I felt another squeeze and I was now trying the hardest I could to open my eyes. Eventually was able to open my eyes and noticed my surroundings. It was only Tristen in the room with me. His head was down in his hands. Noticed that he was holding my hand so I gave his hand a squeeze and his eyes instantly shot up to mine. I was still wondering why he was here.
"Oh my god Kyndall!! You're awake thank goodness. I couldn't stop-" I pulled my hand away from his and his face instantly turned into a frown. I feel bad now but I had to many thoughts running through my mind and they need answers.
"Why are you here Tristen? I didn't ask you to be here. Nobody has ever been there for me and why should I expect someone to here for me now. Please I'm fine Tristen, see." I gave him a not so convincing smile and continued talking, "I don't need anybody's pity and I certainly don't need yours." Somewhere in that conversation I realized tears were coming down my face and I let them fall.
His eyes were held with sadness and I couldn't help but feel guilty about it. I am the one who caused him this pain. Pain came upon me and after knowing what I had just said I looked down. I didn't want him to see me like this. "Look at me Kyndall." I couldn't look at him. His eyes would hold so much pain. "Please Kyndall look at me." Desperation is what his voice held. I just couldn't look at him not like this.
"I'm sorry Tristen I can't look at you. I'm to ugly for your liking and besides I caused you so much pain already. I couldn't deal with you being in more pain." Hurt I felt hurt in my words.
He lifed my chin and made me look at him. But once I saw those eyes I immediately looked away. "Kyndall...." I slowly made eye contact with him. "Kyndall I don't know who the guy was that beat you up like this. But I will find him and I will kill him." I tenses up a little when he said he would kill him but I nodded to let him know to continue. "I don't know what is happening to me Kyndall but I fell like I've known you for my whole life. I don't know what would have happened if you didn't wake up. I just couldn't live with my-"
I put my hand on his cheek. "Look at me Tristen." His gaze instantly went to my eyes. "Don't kill him, okay. He wants this... he wants me. He will never stop until he has me. And he will kill anybody who gets in his way. So please don't kill him. I know he did this to me but I watch him die." Tears started to come down my face. He grabbed my hand placed it on my lap.
"You don't understand. I just can't watch you waste your life away for him." Hurt and sadness was in his words. He got up and started walking to the door.
I tried to grab his hand but I failed and fell on my butt. "Kyndall what are you doing??" He lifted me up and hugged me.
"No you don't understand Tristen. I have to watch my life like this. This is what he wants and he will always win. You have to let me go. Even though we aren't together you have to let me go." Tears pouring now. He didn't know what to say. But when he finally did I stopped him. "Just kiss me already!"
He didn't even hesitate. He pushed me up against the wall. Passion I believe that was everything that was on this kiss. I had to kiss him back there was no other option. He soon backed away and I felt empty. He held my face in his hands. He looked at me with lust and said, "Kyndall I have to go." And he just walked out the door but before he left he stood in the doorway and gave me a smirk. I guess that is what Tristen does.
