True Colours

Chapter 6

'So... you ok? seem a bit shaken up'. He asks in a soothing voice. I feel a tight knot in my throught, small trickles of salty tears drift down my face. 'Hey, it's ok, you can talk to me about what ever it is, i'll help you sort it,' his voice is so soothing I can just hug him right now! He gently wipes away my tears with his soft, lucious muscly hands. 'I..He...Errrmm...'. I stutter, Im lost for words, how on earth can I tell him, just thinking about it makes me want to be SICK. 'When ever your ready', he smiles whilst I gaze into his dark blue eyes. 'Well, my dad...' its all I can say without bursting into a fresh wave of tears. He puts a warm arm around me and I flinch, 'GET OFF OF ME' I yell, and nearly knock him back. 'Sorry I didnt mean that... it's just, after HE touched me I just feel awkward being around a guy. I apologise in a panick, so i've told him and I can see rage fill his face. I've never seen him so angry, I cant help but wonder why he cares so much.

'I know this must be hard for you, but theres a need to say this, YOUR DADS A FUCKING LIFE FUCKER, MEN LIKE HIM DESERVE TO ROT IN HELL', im taken aback by his voice, he sounds so enraged. I sink down onto the sofa, he kneels down in front of me and places his hand on my knee, 'You need to speak to someone, you cant let him carry on like this'. His soft talk makes my organs melt inside. 'Who Jay?' 'I mean my mums a TOTAL BITCH, she never even bothers to ask how I am', and then there's Hayley who's too young to understand ANYTHING'. 'You can get help from someone else.. like them uhmm... councellors!'. He says in a hurried tone. 'I know what my dad has done if unforgiveable, but he could get done for that, and although I may not need him my family does'.

He looks to the ground, and then up at me. 'Listen, your beutiful, and I just want you to know that im here if you need me'. I look at him for a few seconds and then smile and place my hand on his, 'Thanks Jay, listen im gonna go now or else my parents would only flip', ' Oh yh course, just call for me whenever'. He walks me to the door and before he opens it he places a soft kiss on my cheek. I blush and my gaze falls to the floor, as I walk out I feel care free.

I cant face going home so I jaunt over to the local park. I buy myself a strawberry crush and my brain tingles fron the coldness that fills up inside me. Joggers run past me in a gaze and I see a rabbit hop p from under the ground and then it quickly scurries back to safety. It begins to get a bit breezy even though its a warm summers day. So I get myself together put on a faint smile and travel back home hoping for everything that has happened to dissapear.

'Hello dear,' my mum says in a rather pleasant tone, 'Hey mum, need any help scrapping up dinner', I say back excitedly. I mean I didn't actually leave on a good note but things seem to be going smooth. 'No that's fine, Hayley's set the table so why dont you just go and join them at the table', she gives me a smile and my heart leaps with joy! I sit down at the table and smile over at Hayley, she seems pleased to see a smile upon my face and babbles away about how amazing her day was. I dont even bother to look over at my father, but I feel a hand sneak up my skirt, I choke on a sip of water i've taken and he rushes down next to me, 'are you ok sweetie?' He asks in such an innocent voice. Hayley slips off her chair to help my mum in the kitchen and he grasps my hair and yanks be back. 'Tonights going to be one to remember... babe', he strides over back to his chair. Tears sting my eyes but I dont want to ruin anyones happiness so I plant that fake smile back on my face and join in with all the chatter. The dinner smells so good, but his words make me feel sick and I can barely eat. 'Eat up hun', says mum. I smile back politely and as I glance up my eyes meet my fathers, and he grins in a digusting way. What should I be expecting?
