Part Two.

                                                                             Part Two

                                                                        

                                                                                30 Minutes Later..

We pull into the driveway of a simple ordinary home. 

Austin Carlile lives here? Lead singer of Of Mice and Men? Woah. I thought to myself. He parks the car and walks around to the passenger side to open my door. 

"Thank you." I quietly say, still shocked that all of this is actually happening. We walk up to the front door and he lifts up a potted plant, pulling a set of keys out. After unlocking the door, we step inside. Locking the door behind him, he switches on the light. 

"I never did catch your name." He says as he removes his jacket and hangs it up. 

"Hayley." He smiles at me and I can't help but smile back. 

"That's a beautiful name. What do you say we get you cleaned up then have some dinner?" I nod my head and he leads me to the bathroom. 

"I'll get you a towel and some clothes you can throw on." I stand their awkardly as he exits the bathroom. Seconds later he returns with a towel swung over his shoulder and a baggy t-shirt that looks to be at least three times my size. After showing me how to work the shower, he leaves the bathroom, shutting the door behind him. I let out a huge sigh and slouch back against the door, with my head in my hands. 

"What the hell is going on right now? I'm in Austin Carliles bathroom. This can't be real." I whisper to myself. Shaking my head in an attempt to clear my thoughts, I stand back up and begin to remove my torn clothes, piece by piece. I examine the most recent cuts on my wrists and thighs. 

"C'mon Hayley, just one quick slice and it'll all be over. Nobody would care anyway. You're a worthless piece of shit, a skank, a waste of flesh."  I shake my head again. I'm not letting the voices win this time. 

I start the shower and step in, letting the warm water consume me. After washing my hair and my body, I flinch as I wash over the marks on my face. The cuts aren't too bad, only a few minor ones, but it still stung. 

I shut off the water and wrap the towel around my body. Using Austins hairbrush, I brush through my tangled hair. 

"You ok in there?" Austin yells through the bathroom door. I can hear the worry in his voice. Throwing on the shirt he gave me and my sweatshirt so he doesn't see the cuts, I open the door and smile at him.

"Thank you so much. I feel a lot better." He grins. 

"Well I hope you like burgers and chips." I giggle and he smiles again. We head into the kitchen and he looks at me, puzzled.

"You know, you can take your jacket off. It is pretty warm in here and judging by the steam that followed you out of the bathroom, you must have had a hot shower." I shake my head and reassure him that I'm ok. He continues to look at me with a confused look on his face but says no more and sits my plate in front of me. My mouth waters as I dig in. I didn't realize how hungry I was. 

After finishing our meal, we begin to learn more about one another.

"So, how old are you?" I get it, he's starting off with some light stuff. 

"19." There's an awkward silence after that. I know what he's about to ask.

"Hayley.. Who was that guy? What did he do to you? Why were you running from him?" I stare at the floor, debating on if I should tell him. There's no point in hiding it anymore. Besides, Austin deserves to know. I sigh, trying to figure out where to begin.

"It's okay.. I'm here for you." He takes me hand and squeezes it again.

"My mom met him about 7 years ago at a bar in Ohio. They hooked up and she decided to bring him home that very night. After my mom passed out drunk, he decided he'd come into my room and test his luck with me." I can feel the tears coming. This is the first time I've ever spoken about it. 

"Ever since that night, he has molested me, raped me, beat me, and has called me every name in the book. Well tonight.. I finally fought back. I struggled for a good hour and he didn't seem to like it too much. He took a pair of scissors and managed to slice my face up a little bit, he attempted to knock me out, but I just fought through it. I wasn't going to let him do that to me again.."

I see the hurt in Austins eyes, the anger. 

"Oh Hayley.." He stands up and pulls me into a hug. I let the tears out and buried my face into his neck.

"Shh. It's ok, I won't let anyone hurt you ever again. I promise." He says softly, stroking my hair.

"I promise." He whispers. Amazingly, I believed him.
