Then I wake up...

I'm sweating with the covers off. I start to breath heavy and cry. I pick up my phone and text Ty.

Me: promise you will never hurt me...

He answers about a minute later

Ty: promise! ;) <3 you. Now get some sleep.

Me: Ok, <3 you too. Bye!

Ty: BYE!!!!

I put my phone down and try to think. I think about my dream. "He would never do that , or would he?" I start to sob and then I fall asleep. I am woken up to aunt Karla yelling my name

"HEATHER!"

"W-w-what.." I say sleepily

"Get up!"

"Why?!?"

"School!"

"Why so early, my buss doesn't pick me up until 7:30 and it's 6:00"

"I'm driving you there."

"What!?! Why!?!"

"After what you pulled yesterday. Your lucky I'm letting you out of the house. Now get dressed" she said leaving the room. I get up. Slip on my shorts and my blue and white striped shirt. I apply my makeup, do my hair and run down stairs. I pop in a couple chocolate chip pancakes, slip on my boots and run to the car. After about 5 minutes aunt Karla comes out, She gets in the car and we're off. We don't speak for about 5 minutes and then she speaks up.

"I don't want you to talk to that boy"

"Why?!?"

"He is a bad influence"

"He is not!"

"Then why did you run away yesterday"

"Because I wanted to get to school"

"To see that boy!"

I go silent and so does she then she starts to say "don't see that boy anymore" but I ignore her. My eyes are locked on something on the side walk. As we get closer I see it a person!

"STOP!"

"no, why!"

"Pull over!"

"No"

"STOP THE FREAKING CAR!" She pulls over to the side of the road. I jump out of the car and run to the person. "Where are you going young lady!" Aunt Karla yells from the car. I ignore her, I'm focused on the person. As I get closer I see that the person is covered in blood and bruises. It's a male with a green top on and jean shorts on. His backpack is ripped open and his t-shirt is stained with his blood. His brown hair is covering his face so I walk around him, sit on the ground and push his hair from his face. Then I feel week, I don't know what to do, my body shakes and my eyes start to tear. I'm in shock. The boy I'm looking at, covered in blood and bruises. Is Ty! I almost can't function. But I manage to yell to aunt Karla. "CALL 911!" She picked up her phone and called 911. I can't directly see if Ty is breathing so I put my hand on his neck. He has a pulse. I lay down next to him, I kiss him lightly and stroke his hair. "It's going to be ok. It's going to be ok" I whisper. I lay my head on his chest and I feel him kiss me. I look up to see him smiling. "I know" he struggled to say. I kiss him and lay back down. And then I hear ambulance sirens....
