Silence is Deadly {ON HOLD}

(3) First Aid Kit

Matt stumbles in while muttering swear words. A dirty blonde curl falls while he makes a big bang while jumping through the window.

"Oh shit sorry." Matt mutters some more words under his breath that i can't make out.

"You spoiled bitch what did you do!" I hear loud bangs coming from the kitchen. Bloody hell.

"Matt hide in the shower, no matter what do not come out okay?" This isn't good. If he finds out what she does i'm screwed. He'll just look at me like a piece of glass that can shatter into a million pieces at any moment now. The door swings open with a very upset women with dilating eyes. "Sorry mam i just tripped and fell, please forgive me." A cruel chuckle escapes from between her yellow teeth and i flinch.

"Oh you poor little girl, come, sit," i sit on the ground aware of what's going to happen next. "You little selfish spoiled selfish bitch." She then swings her leg back and then forward quickly. She kicks me in the stomach and i cry out in pain. For a crack head she sure can kick.

*Flash back*

I run around the yard giggling because mommy is tickling me!

"You'll never catch me Mommy and Daddy!" I trip into the bright green grass that smells just lovely! I feel big hands grab me and tickle me.

"Oh i got you! Oh you're so big!" I get lifted into the bright blue sky. "You're getting too big for Daddy!"

"Never!" I giggle. He brings me down to his chest and hugs me. I love Daddy's hugs, he puts me down and i look around. I see a white ball and run to it as fast as i can! "Mommy, Mommy play with me!" I kick the ball as hard as i can and i fall, i still can see mommy and she kicks the ball over the house! "Woah mommy teach me to do that! Teach me! Teach me! Pleaseeee" Mommy laughs.

"Okay hunny, wait until you're," she brings her hand to her chin like she's thinking, " until you're 10, that's 5 years love"

*end of flashback*

I miss them. A lot. Im brought back when she kicks me again. And than four more times after that. She kicked me in the face once and four times in the ribs. I feel a wetness on my forehead. She spat on me. "You're such a bitch. Why did i ever have you." She turns around and slams the bathroom door. I start to bawl my eyes out. Not because of the pain in my ribs and face but because of her words. I hear the cream shower curtain open.

"Oh love, come here." His soothing voice helps calm me down. He places me into his lap, cradling me. "Take deep breaths my love, deep breaths."

After I calm down he picks me up princess style and carries me to my bed. He sets me down gently under my gray covers. "I'm going to grab the first aid kit okay?" I nod. I look up at my ceiling. Why, why did she change? I miss her. Matt walks in with the first aid kit in his right hand and some whiskey in his left. I take in his composure, his face is freshly shaven, his face looks emotionless and like he hasn't slept in a few days. His dirty blonde hair is messy like he's been pulling on it, and his shirt is a light grey with a green and black flannel falling loosely. How does Matt put up with me?

"I'm sorry." Is the only thing I can manage to say to him with my shaky, scratchy voice. I start to feel salty tears run down my face. He runs over to the bed and gets under the covers and pulls me to lay on his chest, I feel everytime he takes in a breath, i hear his soothing heartbeat.
