Mom's POV:

"Hello Jerome," I say.

"H-hi Mrs. Hughes," he stutters.

"I will go into Nic's room to see them, ok?" I say. He nods shaking.

I walk through the house. I find the stairs and I walk up them. 'Now which is hers?' I think. 'Ah this one!' I think as I find the door with all the nerdy, geeky stuff on the door. I walk in and Mitch is staring at me. He whispers something to Nic and she goes under the blankets on the bed.

"Mitch," I say.

"What are you doing here!" He demanded.

"I came to take Nic home," I reply.

"She told you she doesn't want to go!" He yelled.

"That's not up to her!" I yell back.

"It is because she is 18!!" Mitch yells.

"M-Mitch I'm s-scared," I hear Nic say from in the bed.

"It's ok I'll protect you," he promises.

Mitch's POV:

"It's ok I'll protect you," I promise.

"PUT YOUR HANDS UP!!" We hear someone yell.

"JEROME!!" Nic screams and runs out of her room.

I get up and follow her. Man I can't thank Jerome enough.

"Thanks G," I say to Jerome.

"It was my pleasure!" Jerome grinned.

"Excuse me is this the woman that was trying to take you?" The cop asks Nic.

I know how she gets around people so I answer for her.

"Yes sir. That is the woman that tried to take her," I answer. I hear Nic's breathing steady.

I see the cop thinking why I answered so I explain, "She doesn't like talking in front of strangers or in big groups."

"Ok thank you for making that clear," the cop answered.

Nic's POV:

Mitch has been my hero so many times over the years.

Mitch walks over to me and hugs me so I calm down.

"Thanks dood," I say.

Then the cops come by with our mother in handcuffs.

"She will be sentenced to 10 years in jail," the cop said.

"Thanks you for taking her out if our lives for awhile," Mitch answers.

"Ya these two will be living without worries for awhile!" Jerome says.

"Alright is there anything we can do for you?" The cops ask.

"Nope that's it, and thanks for everything!" Mitch says.

"If your ever in need of help just give us a call," the cops say walking out the door.

"Will do," we all answer back.

Jerome's POV:

I run over to the cop, "Thanks again, Nic is traumatized by her mother. Before they moved out their mom cut up along her side and broke her left arm and right leg. So thanks!"

"I know what happened," the cop answers.

"You do? How?" I ask stunned.

"I was there," the cop replies getting into his car.

He drove away and left me standing there in awe.

'He was there, when Nic was hurt. Wow didn't see that one coming.' I thought to myself as I walked back inside.
