Mist Falls

Chapter 4: Welcome Home Screams

"Winter, Winter I told you I would find you little sugar," Ryan says spitting on my face as he holds me down.

"Please, please stop," I beg as hot, fat tears roll down my face as I hear my mother screaming from inside the house as Ryan's brothers laugh.

"Now, now sugar its ok, I will make you feel great," he whispers licking my ear.

I feel so sick but I can't move, can't even make my body sick he lifts up off my back and runs the knife down my top ripping it from my back before setting the cold blade down near my shoulder blades.

"Not to good for me now huh, sugar," he says, I scream as he slowly runs the knife down my back like it is butter.

He dose it over and over until I can't scream anymore I can still hear my mum in the house screaming my name but my throat is roar my back is soaked with blood and I know I'm dyeing as he pulls my jeans down and throws them into the pool, I watch as the blood leaks away from my pants into the water.

I'm so tried and I keep slipping in and out I have no idea what's happening either that or I block it out but I'm glad my mind and my body have simply stopped trying and my heart beats are sluggish this will be over soon it will.

I don't hear mum anymore as Ryan wraps his hands around my neck and stopping the air flow he slows and stops his weight lifting off me I can hardly feel my heart anymore.

"Is the mother dead?" I hear Ryan's voice drift in and out.

"Yep is she?" someone asks and I feel a hard kick to my ribs but it does not hurt anymore.

"Yea throw her in the pool and lets go!" Ryan's shouts as he walks away.

But they don't do what he says they lay down on my back as more pain comes back and I scream in head begging silently for it all to stop as I scream and scream and scream.

"Winter wake up!" I can hear Mikes voice pulling me back to the living, reaching it to pain into the darkness.

I open my eyes and look into the worried green eyes of my brothers who is holding my arms, as I fight him off as soon as I realise its Mike the fight leaves me and the screams stop.

"Hurts so much," I whisper and roll on to my side as the pain slides down my back like icy fingers.

"I know, I know, do you want some pain killers," Mike says moving the hair from face.

"Is she ok?" I hear a soft voice ask from the doorway my eyes flick to the source of the voice.

He's not quite as tall as Mike he has soft looking brown hair that falls into his face as he looks down into my eyes,I see worry and pity stare back at me but it is a look I have seen many times and no longer bothers me anymore. He eyes are brown and very puppy like but he's strong and fit like a swimmer but a little bigger he smiles softy at me as I look back at Mike.

"Yes," I whisper at Mike as I pull back inside of myself he sees the change and huffs out a breath before pulling the pills out of his pocket and handing them to me.

I swallow them no water needed anymore and lay back down away from them, I just need to be alone if I'm alone I'm ok no one can hurt me there is nothing left to hurt.

"Winter you have to eat," Mike says softly but there is hardness to his voice.

"No Mike not now," I whisper and close my eyes, wishing I had any form of sleeping pills but there are a few left but I may need them if I can't get any more.
