Away From Home (Dalton Rapattoni Fanfic)

*rape trigger warning*

Dalton’s pov

I saw her in the corner curled up in a ball sobbing. I put my hand on her shoulder to tell her I was there but just screamed. She looked at me and cried harder then put her arms around my neck. I picked her up and sat on her bed with her in my lap. I sat there swaying telling her I was there and she was safe. After she was mostly calm I sat her next to me as she cuddled into my side. Her still taking short breaths and a few tears coming down her face. "Skylen what happened?" "I'm not a virgin" "there's nothing wrong with that" "it's more complicated than that." I gave her a look saying to continue. "I wasn't suppose to move to move here til October 20th. After my family moved. It was August 22nd when it happened. I was walking home from the mall the same way I always do and suddenly I was dragged into an ally" she started to cry again. "Shh it's ok. It’s ok. You don't have to tell me the rest I get it. Its ok. Im here. I’ll protect you. I won’t let anyone hurt you ever again. Ok? Never again." I pulled her closer and ran my fingers through her long dirty blonde hair.
I can't believe this happened to her. Why would someone ever want to do such a thing to a 16 year old girl? Just a teenager. My emotions right now are everywhere. I'm mad at the douchebag who did this. I feel guilty for not being able to protect her. I feel happy I'm holding her in my arms. I feel sad that she's crying. I didn't want to make her talk about but I needed to know who all knew. "Sky, who all knows?" I ask in soft voice so she feels safe. "No one." she said "I was living with my brother and sister in-law. I didn't want to bother them. My friends we're stressing over school and moving I didn't want to distract them." "why didn't you call your mom?" "I knew she would try to fly down but I knew she didn't have the money. Instead I decided to get away as soon as possible. I bought a flight for the night after the concert." her grip around my waist got tighter and she buried her face in my shirt. "It replays in head every night. I always wake up in the middle of night crying. Unable to control. I'm scared Dalton. I'm scared." she said as she cried into my shirt. I've never seen her cry before. She acts so tough. "Shh it's ok. It's ok to cry. You didn't wake up last night." I said as I rubbed her back gently. "Last night was the first time I hadn't had that dream ever since the day it happened. I felt safe with you. I don't know why. I've only known you for 2 weeks." I smiled at the thought that she trusted me already. Her tears stopped and she yawned. "15" I said. She looked up at me confused. "My first kiss was at 15." she giggled her adorable giggle. "When was yours? And the cute 5 year old ones don't count." "haha fine. What time is it, 5?" I nodded. "About 5 hours ago." I bent my head down and kissed her head.  We continued to talk till about 8PM. "Ok kid. I have to go work." she looked up at me and said "OK" I got up and walked to her door. I was about to open it then 2 arms swung around me. I turned around and she moved her arms from around my waist to around my neck. I hugged her back and said into her ear "text me if anything happens ok?" I could feel her head nod in my neck and she whispered "grazie" I smiled and replied "prego."

I was recording and writing a few things in the studio and I decided to text Skylen at about 11.

To kid: hey how's it going?
From kid: so far so good. Thanks :)
To kid: ok text me if you need
From kid: I'm tired imma try and sleep. Gnight love ya
To kid: gnight

I put my phone down and continued to write my new song. Oh my god she said love ya. No don't over think this Dalton. She probably says that to everyone.

I was leaving the studio about 3am and I got a text from Skylen.

From kid: hey
To kid: hey what's wrong?
From kid: woke up. R u still busy?
To kid: just finished. U ok?
From kid: um not really. Can u come over?
To kid: on my way.
From kid: there's a key under the mat just walk in quietly.

I got to Skylens house and found the key. I walked into her bedroom seeing her on the bed holding her knees to her chest breathing heavily.
"Hey Sky what's up?" I asked in a whisper to make sure not to wake up the twins in the next room. She just shook her head. I walked over to her bed. I kicked off my shoes and sat down next to her and pulled her into hug. After a minute or 2 she hugged me back. "How about we go down stairs and walk a movie?" I ask thinking maybe that will help. She nodded and we got out of bed and walked to the living room. I looked through her movies and realized she doesn't have Mean Girls. Who doesn't have Mean Girls? "Dude you don't have Mean Girls." "I know it sucks my dad hates it so he won’t let us buy it."  "lame." I continued to look and found Pitch Perfect. I put it in the DVD player then sat on the couch next to Skylen. She cuddled into my side and I wrapped my arm around her. A few minutes later she was asleep. A peaceful sleep. She had a smile on her face like she was actually having a good dream. Few minutes later I as well fell asleep.

Mary's pov
I woke up and went downstairs to get some breakfast. I walked passed the couch then stopped and walked back a few steps. Now that is adorable. I saw Dalton and Skylen cuddling on the couch. I pulled out my phone and took a picture. I posted it on twitter with the caption "I ship it. #skyton." I tagged Dalton and Skylen and within minutes #skyton was trending. I went to the kitchen to make some breakfast and I hear from the living. "Who keeps blowing up my phone?" it was Dalton. He looked at the tagged picture.

Skylens pov
I woke up in Dalton’s arm and him saying "ohh no. oh no. oh no. oh no." "Dalton what's wrong?" I ask "look at Twitter." I get my phone and saw that Mary posted a picture of me and Dalton on the couch. "MARY!!!" I yelled. "Yes?" she responded. "Take it down!" "even if I did #shyton is trending. All nobodies ship it." I looked at the comments and they were all nice. Not what I was expecting. "She's so pretty" "#jelly" "couple goals." all were so nice. Then I kept reading "fat"  "slut" "you don’t deserve him" "bet she can’t even sing" suddenly my phone was taken out my hand. I looked up to see Dalton looking at the comments. "Don't read these. People are stupid. The Nobodies can be mean sometimes." he wiped away a tear I didn't know was coming down my face. "Yeah I know." I said. "Come here." he took a selfie with me and posted it on twitter and instagram and Facebook.

@Daltonrapattoni: @Skylenjones is one of my best friends. Nothing more, nothing less. I was comforting a friend that's it.

Just a friend. Nothing more. Those words hurt but I knew the problem would be taken care of. I think right there it really hit me that I'm not going to date Dalton. And I should go on some dates. I'm out of highschool and I don't start college til the summer. I don't want a boyfriend though. I want Dalton. Maybe I should get a job? I should have thought about life after high school.

Writing that hurt but I knew if I left it alone Skylen would get unwanted attention.

A/n supper crappy chapter forgive me.
