why? (lady gaga fanfiction)

1.

"go into your room and into your closet and hide for me okay?" my mom said frantically as she held onto my shoulders
"what? mom, why?" i said looking at her very confused
"i made Jake very angry and-" i rolled my eyes making her stop
"what?" she said
"you shouldve left him, he beats you, sells drugs for a living and is just an asshole mom"
she sighed running her fingers through her hair
"your right, i know that but i made a mistake and its too late to fix it i just-" she was cut off when we heard a car door slam outside
"just go hide where i told you, im sorry i listened to him. im sorry for not fixing things when i couldve-" she paused getting a letter out of her pocket, "here, take this and never let go of it, i love you" she said kissing my forehead
"i love you too" i said with tears threatening to spill
"now go" she said as we saw a figure at the door
i sprinted up the stairs, opened my door and then closed it locking it. i walked over to my closet and went in, i closed the door and sat in the corner staring at the door while holding tightly onto my letter.
i heard the front door slam.
i heard their voices but i couldnt make out what they were saying until they started yelling.
"your a god damn bitch leslie! you dont know how to keep your mouth shut!" i heard jake yell
"they were asking so many questions jake, i didnt know what else to say!" my mother shouted back
"you couldve said anything instead selling me out to the fucking cops!" i head him yell as i heard furniture being thrown
"god dammit leslie what the fuck am i gonna do now?! im not getting arrested because you cant keep your mouth shut!"
"look im sorry, we can run we can-" i heard he said before he interrupted her
"we?! oh no, there is no more we, just me. im not gonna drag you around any longer"
at this point i had my ear pressed against the door as i listened.
"no jake dont what about sam? whats she gonna do without me? look.." i heard her stutter "you can just leave and me and sam wont say a word, you never came home and we don't know where you are okay?"
"speaking of the kid, where is she?" i heard him ask
"she hasnt come home yet" she said quickly
"oh really? then why is her car parked out back?" he asked
"a friend picked her up this morning she-"
"you do remember that i was here this morning right?" he said chuckling "i saw her leave in her car"
there was a pause before he spoke "so wheres the kid leslie?"
"what do you want with her anyway?" she said rasing her voice
"i could sell her to a friend for some money, you know?" i heard him say
"dont you fucking do anything!" i heard her yell "dont you fucking-" she was cut off by a gunshot.
i held my hands over my ears and let my tears fall freely.
he just killed my mother.
i heard footsteps coming up the stairs "hey kid, i know your here" he said slowly
with my hands shaking i pulled my phone out of my pocket.
i went back to my corner and sat down, i unlocked my phone and dialed 9-1-1.
i pressed it against my ear as i heard is footsteps get closer
"cmon kid dont make this hard" he said
"9-1-1 whats your emergency?"
"i-he.. hes in the house-he.. he killed my mom" i whispered
"im sorry, what did you say, he killed your mom?" i heard the lady say
"yes, he shot her, just- hurry and get here" i said
"okay, whats your address honey?"
before i could answer i heard my doorknob jiggle "you in here kid?" i heard him ask
in fear, my phone slipped out of my hand and hit the ground, making a thud.
"fuck" i whispered as i heard him laugh
i heard him begin kicking my door
i heard faint "hello's" from my phone
i pressed my knees against my chest and put my head down as more tears began to fall
as my door opened i heard him pass my closet. "where you at kid? im gonna find you eventually"
i covered my mouth with my hand to stop sobs from escaping.
i heard him walk around my room and then heard another door open which was my restroom.
i looked up and noticed my closet door was unlocked.
i quietly got up and slowly walked over to the door to lock it
as soon as i did i saw the door knob start to turn.
i took a step back and stared at the doorknob. fuck. he found me. i thought
i heard him start pounding on the door as he yelled, "open the fucking door kid. stop being so god damn difficult!"
i kept taking steps back until i hit a wall. at this point i didnt care anymore i slid down the wall, with my hands over my face as i began sobbing uncontrollably.
"open the fucking door!" he yelled repeatedly as he hit it.
after a what felt like forever i heard sirens outside.
i let out a sigh of relief when i heard him start running away.
i heard cops enter the house, but i still didnt move. i stayed in the same spot, staring at my closet door.
i heard footsteps come up the stairs and into my room.
"is anyone in here?" i heard a lady ask
"yeah" i squeaked
i heard her footsteps come to the closet door, she tried to open it but couldn't because i locked it.
"could you open it?" i heard her ask
i couldnt get up, i was terrified.
"im not gonna hurt you-" i heard her start but she was cut off by another lady
"let me" i heard her say
"sweetie?" i heard her say from the door "your safe now its okay, im a cop, i wont hurt you"
i still didnt move.
"please open the door sweetie, let me help you"
slowly i got up and unlocked the door, i didnt open it, just took a step back. slowly i saw the door open reveling the lady.
"hi sweetie" she said looking at me, "why dont you come with me" she said extending her arm
i slowly walked out of my closet with her
she put an arm around my shoulders as we walked downstairs
i stopped once we got close the door. i saw a bunch of people covering my mothers dead body
"sweetheart?" she said making me look at her, she gave me a sad smile "lets go outside" she said
i walked with her towards an ambulance where the checked to make sure i was okay and gave me a blanket.
i sat at the edge of the vehicle as the lady from earlier walked towards me
"im officer Stefani Germanotta" she said sticking out her hand
