Child of the past

Miss peregrine (as a child) POV.

"Please, Jack please don't. You know I can't help it. It's not my fault. I was born this way," I sob. He continues kicking my stomach, causing me to be winded and bleeding. He believes that woman are hopeless and don't deserve to be ymbrynes. I can take the pain and bruises. I know it can't be helped. If I tell Miss Avocet he'll kill me. My 16 year old brother has threatened to kill me at 11. I let out a cough, spattering the wood floor with crimson.

"Serves you right. You're worthless and silly. I don't even want to know you,"

Miss Peregrine's POV (now)

I wake up hyperventilating, tears streaming. Then I realise I have fallen asleep on the sofa. Bronwyn sits beside me, crying too.

"My love, what is the matter?" I ask her gently.

"You're crying Miss P, I can't bear to see you sad," She answers "You'll be alright though Miss, right?"

"I'm sorry dear. Of course I'll be okay. I just had a bad dream is all," I smile.

Then I see her study my face in fear.

"What's the matter?" I say.

"The rings around your eyes. You must be exhausted. I'm so sorry, Miss. It's all our fault,"

"No dear it is NOT your fault. No one is at fault. Don't ever even think you are a burden to me. Ever. I love you children and I will stop at nothing to protect you to my full abilities," I say honestly,pulling her into a warm hug.

A/n: I'm really sorry that was super short. Xxx
