Break me free

chapter seven

Harry~

I sat there a while, rocking her as she cried into my shoulder. I pulled away slightly and looked her straight in the eye.

‘’anna, please tell me. I can help you’’ I whispered. She just sighed and looked at me.

Anna~

I knew I was going to have to face my fears and own up to everything. Sighing I took a deep breathe in and paused.

‘’ Last year, I had this boyfriend’’ I gulped, harrys eyes bored into me begging for me to carry on.’’I thought he was nice you know, at the start he’s everything I could have wanted, the perfect boyfriend. My mum and dad loved him like he was their own child, they adored him as much as me. But after around 6 months of the relationship he started to abuse me slightly when I didn’t do things like do his homework or lie to people for him, it wasn’t much really. But he used to hurt me. And then when he figured using violence against me could make me do more, that was exactly what he did, he told me to do things to him, sexual things that I didn’t want to do, of course I refused. No way was I going to but he hurt me harry, he really hurt me. He broke my nose 3 times and I had bruises all over my body. I felt dead, one night at a party we went to I decided to leave early because I wasn’t feeling to good, he offered to drive me. I was to scared to say no so I let him, he put me in his van and we ended up in the middle of nowhere.’’ I paused for breathe, harrys eyes were wide. I guess he could tell what was coming next but I carried on anyway, needing to get it off my chest. ‘’ we were there a while, and all of a sudden other boys and men started to arrive they spoke to me like a piece of dirt saying things like ‘oh so this is your little bit’ and things. They started to try and prise my clothes off me’’ I was crying now, a lot not managing to get my words out, my lip trembled as I carried on. ‘’ I kicked and screamed and begged for them to let go but they wouldn’t they were strong the pinned me down, one of them covered my mouth with their hand, I couldn’t breathe harry. So I bit him, and I bit hard, he hit me. Right across the face and it knocked me out. I woke up in the middle of a field feeling dead, I thought I was dead, I thought it was the end, I had no clothes on and I was battered and bruised everywhere. They raped me harry’’ I whispered, blinking back the tears. He stared at me in horror and pulled me into a huge hug stroking my hair, I pulled back indicating that his wasn’t the end of the story. ‘’ I had a brother back then, an older one. Scott he was called, he was 18 and I was 15, he looked out for me. I was his little princess. He found out what the men had done to me and went out hunting for him, cursing them saying he would kill them, he headed out that Friday night and we didn’t hear from him until Sunday, we were getting worried so dad called the police and because of the power dad has over people they set out searching immediately, we never heard anything until the following Friday when they were about to call off the search, they found his body in the canal, dan my ex had killed him, and it was my fault’’ I wailed, harry looked gobsmacked his face turned white, his eyes sunked. He looked destroyed.

‘’sh’’ he whispered, its okay. Its not your fault anna I promise you. Im here now, I wont let anybody get you again’’ he said moulding me into his body. I nodded into his shoulder, drenching his t shirt with my tears, he didn’t seem to mind though, he just hushed me kissing the top of my head soothingly in an attempt to calm me. My body was shaking and I felt life less. I wanted this to end. I wanted to be broken free. I couldn’t go on like this, maybe harry would save me.
