-Chris's POV-

I headed down the dark street, my stomach packed full with my mum's home cooking,
My hoodie zipped up and my hood up so no one will see my face or makeup,
Scranton is a stringent town,
The locals make sure anyone  who is different and or not in their usual normal encounters that they face in the streets get what they deserve.
If I was to show my face I may just get a spit, a kick, a push or a name called at me.
It didn't end in high school like my mum said it would.
I walked down the road in the freezing cold, crossing the street till I noticed someone sitting under the lamppost curled up, and passed out asleep,
I checked my back pocket for change and I put it in her hat that was on the ground when I recognised her face.
I could have recognised her face anywhere,
"Elise?"
I put my hand on her cheek
She shot up awake and looked around.
"Elise what- what are you doing here?"
"I have no m-money, please leave me alone" she said quietly getting up,
"No wait please" I said grabbing her hand,
" I don't know why you bother with me Chris, it was a mistake for me to be here,"
"Hey! I took you in because I knew you needed me"
"Is that what you think?" She shook her head quietly,
"I've been doing just fine on my own thank you very much"
"But I need you too! I need a- a friend okay?! There I said it" she was about to bolt off but I grabbed her arm.
"You already have a friend. I don't see why I'm your choice"
"Listen about before, it didn't mean anything, she didn't mean what she said,"
"I've seen enough to know what is meant to be and what isn't"
She jerked away and my grip loosened.
She stepped back from me,
"And I know when I'm not wanted" her voice darkened.
She walked away,
I grunted and kicked the rubbish bin onto the road.
I decided to get home, it was freezing out.
As I was walking I noticed I was walking a fair distance behind Elise.
I seen a couple of men began to comment on her apearance.
I tried to not clench my fists in anger but I had to do something.
I heard one of them laugh and slap her ass,
Nows my chance.
I ran into the scene and tackled them down, punching him furiously.
"Don't fucking touch her!" I growled pushing them back as they ran away.
She sat on the ground, wide eyed, not able to take in what she had just saw.
I helped her up,
"It's dangerous at night"
She never moved.
"You okay?"
She nodded,
"Come on, I'll take you home,"
"What about-
"Sarah left, we got in a fight a-and- yeah"
"I'm sorry"
We got back into the house and I took off her wet hoodie that had been soaked by the freezing cold rain all day,
She sniffled and shivered,
"Don't worry, I'll fix that"
She chuckled with a tiny smile, still looking down,
I handed her a box of handkerchiefs to blow her nose.
"Thanks," she whispered.
We were caught in the moment when the door swung open,
"I knew it!"
"What are you doing here?" I asked,
"I'm here for my shit!" She said pushing by us and heading up stairs, coming back down with a large bag of clothes and makeup,

"Babe listen I'm sorry please don't do this"
"Fuck you! I hate you! You go fuck her cause that's all you ever do"
Elise gulped.
"I'm not like that don't listen to her"
"Yeah that's all he does! Fucks me and doesn't talk to me!"
"That's a lie! That's what you do!"
"Yeah right"
I went to pull her back but she pushed me into the glass coffee table making it shatter,
My back getting cut up and also my cheek.
She laughed and left.
Elise knelt down,
"No don't, you'll get cut on the glass" I said sadly,
She shook her head and helped me move away from the glass,
I winced and let a tear shed,
She looked at my cut up hands and wiped my tears with her cardigan.
She helped me up, and helped my up the stairs.
she ran some water in the tub,
"Shirt off"
"What- no"
"You did the same to me"
"Your right, sorry"
I stripped to my boxers,and got into the water,
She got out her first aid kit and sterilised a needle and thread,
"Wait hold on have you done this before"
"No"
She stitched my shoulder,
I winced and grunted,
"Almost done"
"Ah this hurts like a bitch"
"What happened to your face" she asked concerned,
I looked down,
"She hit you too?"
I nodded,
" you don't need her, she doesn't deserve you" she said helping me out the tub,
"I know" I sighed
"Go get yourself sorted I'll be downstairs"
She headed down,
I put on some pyjamas and headed downstairs to see Elise cleaning up all of the glass,
"There good as new"
"You didn't have to do that love"
"It's the least I could do"
I put my arm round her,
"Come, you look like you need some rest"
I got in the bed and she stopped,
"You can trust me" I said softly,
She lay in the bed and I pulled the quilt over her,
"Thanks for tonight"
"It's alright"
"Good night Elsie"
"Good night Chris"
We both fell into a deep sleep,
