"Now I want you to picture the love of your life. Imagine that you have 30 seconds to win her back. One shot, three sentences. What are those three sentences, and who are you saying them to?"
~This Is Us (cried in this episode)

"Lets go." Phoenix Boris said after beating up the last of the boys, he spit out some blood and looked at me with a smirk. I stayed in my corner, feeling a panic attack or something rising.

"T-they touched me." I cried shaking my head. I want Carter. I want Carter. "Where's Carter?!"

Phoenix took a step back and got leveled with me, his eyes look darker now. Way darker. To dark. To much enjoyment behind the violence. "I'm going to take you home, let's go."

"I want Carter!" I screamed covering my eyes, I can't see his eyes. I can't let them convince me to trust him.

I want Carter. I want Carter. I want Carter. I want Carter. I want Carter. "Where's Carter!"

"Don't raise your voice with me, understood?" Phoenix said sternly after he took my face in his hands, making me look at his face. I looked at him through my tears and saw he was serious and worried at the same time. My heart feels like it's getting stabbed one hundred times over.

"Make it stop. Make it stop." I repeated feeling an increasing pain in my chest, stomach and groin. "Make it all stop."

Phoenix pulled me into a hug against my wishes, I felt my body stiffen up in fear but in general. He was warm and hard like my brother and Damian.

"Come on." He said taking off his black leather jacket. I looked up at him confused.

"Why are you being so nice to me?" I asked feeling myself relax immediately. His eyes went back to their soft color, you can see the golden specks. Phoenix smiled down at me, he didn't look like the scary Phoenix like he was when he was beating up people.

"Friends don't let friends get hurt. And we're friends." He said wrapping the jacket around my small body. I felt myself start to cry again but not in fear, in...I don't know.

I don't know how I feel like right. I'm happy? I feel the same warmth I felt with the spider web moment with my brother and Damian.

"Thank you so much." I cried into my chest. Phoenix nodded his head and carried me out of the school. The admins turned their heads, knowing Phoenix's reputation and who my brother was.

"Come on." He said gently laying my body on the seat. I curled up into a ball immediately and closed my eyes. Phoenix buckled my seat belt and closed my door lightly. Within seconds he was in the driver's seat, without a seat belt and driving off. I opened my blue green eyes and looked up at him.

"It's cold." I said feeling my teeth chitter. Phoenix looked over at me with a memorized look. I felt self conscious and suddenly the kid's laughing came to my head. "Stop it."

Phoenix cleared his voice with a nod, turning back to the road. "Sorry, I'm just not use to seeing somebody so beautiful."

I looked at him taken back. "What?"

Beautiful? Me? Who was he talking about? Why was he saying this stuff to me? Who does he think he is?

"You heard what I said." Phoenix said and stopped at the stop light. I still looked at him shocked. The only people who tell me I'm beautiful was Damian and Carter.

"You shouldn't feel the need to lie to me, I know what I look like and I know why these kids pick on me." I said facing away from him. Phoenix sighed and tapped my back. I looked over at him from over my shoulder and saw he was handing me his shirt, I looked up from his out reached hand to his abs.
