Scarred Heart (TØP Adoption)

We all scream cause we're terrified...

Josh's POV

"Josh look. I love you man, but one of our daughters is lying, and we both believe our own. How do we settle this?"

"I don't know."

"Why do you believe Ken?" Tyler asked.

"I promised I wouldn't say. It's her secret to tell, not mine. Why do you believe Sky so much?"

"Because look at the facts, Josh. Sky has the bruise."

"And Ken was the one wincing in pain since yesterday afternoon." I shot back. "Where is Sky?"

"She went out with friends, I think."

Ken's POV

I heard a knock at the door. I regretted answering it as soon as I did. There was Skylar.

"Hey, bitch. Josh believes your side. Why?"

"I don't know." That answer got me a punch in the face.

"LIAR!" she pushed me down and kicked me a few times. Soon, she saw what was under my shirt. "What do we have here?" She pulled my shirt all the way up. "Awe. Looks like you weren't kidding when you said that you were abused. You know, I could put more scars on this without any charge. On the house. Would you like that?" before I could say anything, she went over to the kitchen and found a knife. She started cutting right then and there. I screamed in pain. "If you tell anyone about this, I will make you wish you were dead. Josh and Tyler are mine. My dads. And besides, why can't I do what other's have done?" then she walked out, leaving me in a small puddle of my own blood and tears.

I soon got up and cleaned my wounds before I cleaned up the puddle. It took a while, but I got most of the blood stain off the wood.

Josh soon texted me to walk over to Tyler's house. I did what I was told. They were yelling at each other until they heard the door close.

They turned towards me, anger left their faces and was replaced by concern. I didn't understand until I remembered that I forgot to put make-up on to cover the multiple bruises on my face.

"Ken, what happened? Are you okay?" Josh asked as he walked over to me. I simply nodded, not trusting my words. All of a sudden, I heard Sky's voice behind me.

"Hey dad. Hey Josh. Hey Ken, what happened?" she asked, trying to hide her amusement from my pain. I simply started shaking again. Josh saw and bent down.

"Ken. It's alright. Just listen to my voice. Everything's alright. They aren't here." He kept talking low, helping me not go into a flashback. I slowly calm down. "Can you tell me what happened?" I shook my head rapidly. "Okay. Okay. Okay. Calm down. I'm right here. Nothing's going to hurt you while I'm here." He wiped tears I didn't know I had shed. I nod and hug him. He just hugged me, stroking his thumb against my skull, calming me down more.

I soon pull apart from him and look at him.

"Everything's going to be alright." I nod and we look over to a Tyler and Sky talking.

"I think she's just doing this for attention, because of yesterday." I overheard Sky talking.

"Sky, take off your make-up."

"What?"

"You heard me."

"Fine." she walked off. Tyler came towards me.

"I'm sorry, Ken" Before i could try to reply, Sky came back, but she made the bruise on the other eye. Tyler took one look at her and back at me. "I'm so sorry. I should have at least not have jumped to conclusions, or just have taken Sky's word."

"It's okay. I forgive you." I said, quietly.

"What?" Sky almost screamed.

"Miss innocent, the bruise is on the wrong side." Josh said, smirking.

I'm doing a band one shot book, and I added a TØP story, for the end of the era. Check it out, if you wanna.
