Me Before You(Camren)

Chapter 17

Throughout the day Lauren came and visited me making sure I was okay. God I was so hopelessly in love with this woman and even with the distance for five years nothing will never change that. I knew what I felt was real and I knew she felt it too. The realization of her loving me too was always on my mind. The ignorance of other people bothered me because they don’t know what she and I have been through in the past. Lauren was there for me through everything and now it’s time to return the favor. I can’t believe after I get out of here my home would be with Lauren. She was so pure the kindest person I’ve ever known. Being with Lauren again was the wish I made for the last past year. Honestly now that I have her I promise I would never walk out of her life again.

Later that day Dinah came with Normani and stayed for a few hours just talking about random things. They made me laugh more than I had lately but that’s why we were all so close they got me when nobody else did. They always had my back literally everyone in their inner circle protected me from bullshit my family did to me. Poor little Sofi didn’t even understand why they treated me the way they did. In all honesty I was glad she was oblivious to ever that happened right in front of her. Especially the day my father slapped me across the face.

~Flash Back~

I was so scared to go home after school. The teacher had called my parents about my consistent sleeping in class. Although I couldn’t help it I could never sleep in that house because I was afraid of what my dad would do at any minute. He was scary man defiantly when he was drunk. Anything in his path was his target. I felt bad for my mom but my self-pity was limited because she hasn’t been a mother to me. She let him talk and run over her any types of ways and Sofi was always in the mist of it.

As I walked in to the door I heard the deep voice I was terrified of.

“Karla get your ass in here. I heard him say and I knew he was upset by the shakiness in his voice. Being scared was a major understatement I was fucking petrified of this man who I call my father.

I walked into the room quickly..

“Yes sir” I said shaking standing there looking down not able to look him in the eye.

“Fucking look at me Karla” he said slamming his fist down onto the table. I looked up quickly with tears in my eyes.

“Why the fuck are you crying Karla I haven't done anything to you yet you peice of shit” he said my mom just stood there watching from the other side of the table with a blank face it was like she didn't even care what that man said to me and it pissed me off.

“I got a call from the school today saying you keep sleeping in fucking class stop doing that because if I get a phone call again your gone out of this house and I don't give a shit if you cry because I run this house I pay bills so I have a say in anything I chose to do so. He said standing up pulling me roughly by my arm.

“Owww your hurting me I'm so sorry I won't get another call home I promise. I said crying as her dragged me up the stairs. I already knew what was about to happen and I knew there was nothing I can do to stop him.

“I know you won't because I'm gonna give you a reminder of what the hell will happen to you when I get phone calls home from you teachers. He said throwing me onto the bed and slamming the door behind him. Swiftly unbuckling his belt he pulls in out the hoops with one swoop.

"Oh Please no I'm sorry don't hurt me. I begged crying more openly.

"Karla shut the fuck up! Bend over right now or it's going to be worse for you. He said I just did as he asked bending over before I loud smack came hurling into the room.

"Fuck! Stop please! I yelled and this seemed to piss him off more bringing the next slash on my back. This made me fall over crying harder than ever. Again and again the smacks ranged in the room and all you could hear was my crying and his heavy breathing. After he finished you could see the blood seeping through my shirt and this is how it's always has been.

~End Of Flashback~

The memory brought tears to my eyes without me even noticing it.

"Walz what's wrong why are you crying? Dinah asked moving closer to me.

"What if he tried to look for me Dinah? What if he come back into my life and ruins it again? I said starting to sob and I knew she understood who I was talking about as soon as I said it.

"God no Walz I won't let him near you or hurt you again. I'm here every one is here for you now Walz you'll be okay I promise you. She said and I just nodded put my face more into her shoulder.

"What's going on in here? Omg Can baby are you okay? I heard Lauren say I just looked up at her sadly while Dinah stood up so she could take her place.

"yeah I'm fine I just had a break down that's all. I said shrugging laying my head on her chest.

"Babe if you need to tell me anything you can you know that I won't judge you. I love you Camila so much. She said kissing my forehead.

"I know it was just memories of what my dad did to me. I'm just scared he's gonna come back" I said looking up at her .

"Camz I'm not gonna let him come close to you at all he's looking after Sofia now you will be fine. She said and my heart swelled good I love her so much I thought.

"I want to get custody of Sofi" I said.

"Umm okay how do you plan to do that? She asked raising her eyebrow.

"Well she's my sister if I tell them that I am compatible enough and tell them what my father done to me then I know for sure that Sofi will be mine and I can take care of her" I said smiling.

"Camz I get that but you know you have to be making some type of income that shows you can take care of her and get her things she needs? Lauren said looking down and me. I frowned because she was right I did and I needed to figure out where would I even start.
