Abuse isn't something anyone would want to endure. But unfortunately for Lauren it is something she has to deal with on a daily basis. After the loss of her mother 5 years ago, her father took a turn for the worst. Can she cope with it on her own or...
''Hey Coll I just got a text from Marcus'' Collin comes to me and sits next to me in the kitchen where we were having a late lunch.
Hey Jeff,
Lauren can go home today. I think I asks the doctors again because she has been throwing up since this morning. Can you and Collin come by? If so, can you bring some clothes for me and Lauren?
x-Marcus
''Marcus is probably still in his suit and if Lauren can go home today she also needs something to wear. I will pick out clothes for Marcus and you can go Laurens.'' Collin says.
''No I think I should do Marcus and you Lauren. I don't know what to choose for a girl.''
''Fine.'' Collin sighs.
After Twenty minutes we get in the car and drive to the hospital.
Lauren's POV
I feel really dizzy and I think I might throw up again. I really don't want to throw up again because my stomach is already empty. The only thing I am throwing up is bile.
At that moment the door opens and Jeffrey and Collin walk in.
The greet my with a kiss on the cheek and give Marcus a bag with clothes. Marcus opens the bag to check what is and lays it down on my bed.

''Not that bad. Who chose it?'' He asks.
''I did.'' Jeffrey says with a smile.
''What did you bring for me?'' I ask them

'' You brought her a legging?'' Marcus says with a mad facial expresion.
''Is that what did is? I thought it was just pants.'' Collin says. The guys don't like it when I wear legging because they don't think its appropriate.
'' It's fine.'' I say.
Marcus shakes his head slowly from side to side. He goes to the bathroom to get changed. I lay back down because my head is spinning really fast. I try to relax and close my eyes. The spinning keeps going and I feel like throwing up again. I sit straight up and get the container. I try to get something out but there's really nothing left. Collin slowly rubes his hand over my back. On some spots it hurts and i flinch. He quickly stops and takes the container away from me. I lay back down and fall a sleep.
Collin's POV
She closses her eyes and falls asleep. Marcus comes back and looks at her.
''She just tried to throw up but nothing came out.''
''She hasn't been eating.''
''Should we ask a doctor?''
"Yes we could do that.'' Marcus says to me and we walk into the hallway when we see that standing there. He walks up to us.
''Dad what are you doing here?'' Marcus asks him.
'' I uhmm... I-I come to see our little girl.'' Dad stutters.
''You think that that is a good idea?'' I ask him.
''I-I'm so so sorry. It won't happen again. I swear to you.'' He walks past us and goes in the room.
''Hey my babygirl.'' He gives her a kiss on the head and she wakes up.
''Dad? What are you doing here?'' She asks sleepy.
''I came to see my favorite daughter.''
''I'm your only daughter.'' she laughs.
''That's why you're my favorite.'' They both giggle.
A doctor comes walking in. ''You must be her father.'' the doctor says to dad.
''I am'' He says proudly.
''Well good news, you can go home.''
''Great lets go.'' Lauren says. She already throwing her blanket of.
''Wait not that fast Lauren. Doc. she has been throwing up since this morning.'' Marcus says to the doctor and Lauren looks really mad at him.
''Oh youngman I get your concern but with a concussion it's very likely to do so. She should rest a lot and just eat when you're hungry. But the most important thing is to be hydrated.'' Lauren nods and she tries to climb out of bed. Jeffrey helps her but dad takes over. He hands her the bag with clothing and he leads her to the bathroom.
''Marcus?'' We all react to Lauren but Marcus runs to the bathroom and knocks on the door and asks what is going on.
Lauren's POV
Getting in to my clothes hurts a lot. Just moving my arms hurt at my ribs. I already have the leggings on and a t-shirt. Because the sweater is really big I need to do a lot of movement and it hurts really bad.
''Marcus?'' within seconds he knocks on the door.
''What's wrong?'' I hear the worry in his voice.
''It's nothing bad. But I can't get my sweater on.''
''Can I come in?''
''Yes.'' He walks in and helps me get the sweater and jacket on. He ties my shoes and we walk out.
Marcus is with his car and Collin and Jeffrey are in a car. Dad came walking. Collin and Jeffrey leave together and I ride with dad and Marcus.
Marcus helps me get in the car and we drive away.
''Honey I'm sorry'' Dad says to me.
''Why are you sorry?''
''It wasn't ment to go this far and I promise it won't happen again.'' He says with his sweet voice.
''Dad that's enough.'' Marcus stops dad from talking and turns the radio on.
I'm really confussed. Why is dad apologizing? And why is Marcus acting this way?
