What is love?

Flashbacks

I wake up about ten minutes after I fainted. I hear sirens alarming I try to stand up but I can't. My legs feel like they are pinned to the ground and I'm shaking all over. My head feels heavy and I noticed a few freshly cut cuts on my arms and legs. I here people come in through the front door. "Where's the girl!" I police officer yells. "Cuff 'em" the same police officer yells. I hear a bunch of people heading my way I try to turn my head but it feels to heavy. Doors burst open. "Callista!" Martinus yells. He runs over to my side and starts balling. "Please don't leave me!" He whispers over and over again. "You are the greatest best friend that I've ever had! Please don't leave me!" I didn't know what the hell he was talking about. "Leave him?" I'm not that banged up. I managed to turn my head and looked at my arms. They were all bloody. I could barley see my arm. "Excuse me young sir if you want her to be okay we need you to leave her side for just a moment." The medic said. "I won't go far" he whispered. And I was glad he said that even if he was scared I still felt safe and after that I blacked out.
*a few days later*
I woke up to the sound of a machine beeping. Beep, beep, beep it kept going on and on and on. I didn't open my eyes, I didn't want to. But eventually I got tired of my eyes being closed so I opened them just a little bit. When I saw that no one was in the room I looked around and then I saw a mirror. I pulled a lot of tubes going into my arms out and walked over to the mirror. My legs were super wobbly but I managed to get over there. I almost screamed. I was cut and bruised head to toe. I counted how many cuts I had on my arms, I had thirteen on each arm and about twenty on each leg. On my face both my cheekbones were bruised and I had a cut on my lip and a gash above my eyebrow. I had a few tiny cut here and there but then I I noticed how bad my arms were they were deeper than ever before and I lost so much blood so that's why I kept fainting and all that shit. Sat back down on the bed and crossed my arms. I didn't want anyone to see them but then I looked in the corner in the room and got up and walked over to my clothes. I had been wearing a pink tank top, a gray sweater, and some blue jean shorts.

But now my shorts were soaked with blood and so were my sweater and my shirt. My shirt was cut at the ribs and waist and my sweater was cut at the end of the sleeves and then I think that man who was abusing me for no reason decided to take it off because it was easier to abuse me that way. "Ms. Jenson what are you doing out of your bed?" Someone asked me. I turned around as fast as I could and my eyes immediately swelled up with tears. "I- I'm s-s-sorry" I said slowly walking back to my bed. My voice was all cracky not just because I was about to cry because of what I have experienced. "Now Ms. Jenson why did you get up from your bed?" The doctor asked me. "B-Because I want-ed t-to s-s-see myself i-in the m-mirro-r" I said while stuttering. "Well I'd like to ask you not to do that these fluids need to go into your body" she instructed. I just rolled my eyes and looked away as she put them back in. "Now i'd like to tell you what happened while you see asleep. Okay?" She asked. I just nodded. "Alright so you fainted after that young boy.... Martinus?" She asked, I just nodded. "Alright so when Martinus left your side you just fainted and there was blood everywhere and it was very scary and very serious so we had to bring you to the hospital Martinus comes here everyday after school to see you and I he seems to care very much for you" she said while smirking. I did a faint smile cause that's all I could do. "As if for your father he was the one who was seriously cutting you as if for the other man was just there for when he captured you and when you were awake" I frowned. "S-so wh-where is my d-dad and s-sisters?" I asked. "Your dad as if right now is in jail and your sisters are staying with the Gunnarsen's" she said. "And m-my mom?" I asked. "She is in jail too because she also abused you." I just nodded I never thought this would ever get this involved. "W-where will I g-go?" I asked. "You will be staying with the Gunnarsen's as if right now." She said. Then all of a sudden my head started hurting and I flashed back to when I was little. It was my parents and me and my older sister Camryn. We were swinging on a playground and our parents were all happy I barely noticed them at all. We were all laughing and then both my parents said those words most parents say to their kids "I love you!" Then all of a sudden it turned black. I flashed back to a few years later. My parents were yelling at each other. Me. Camryn, an Cara were all in my room cuddling with each other and the yelling just grew and grew until it stopped everything stopped and then it became white. It was my brothers funeral. My brother was at war and he was shot. My dad was sadder than ever and then that's when the abuse started. It was his funeral and my dad was kneeling down with his hand on his coffin and his head was hanging down and he was crying. I went over to comfort him but he snapped at me. "Leave me alone you worthless piece of shit!" He yelled and then I fell back into the darkness and then I came back to the night was attacked. It was after I blacked out. Martinus was standing there in fear but he was still very brave looking. "What the hell do you think you are doing!!!" He yelled. The guy threw a punch but he dodged it. "Leave her alone!" He yelled. Throwing a punch which hit him square in the mouth. "If you hurt her you will never see light again bitch!" He yelled
Throwing another punch. The man picked him up and through him in to the ground. He took a knife out of his pocket and rolled up Martinus's sleeve and started cutting him. Then he punched and kicked him until Martinus blacked out. Everything started to fade and was back in reality and then out of no where I started to cry.
