Save That-

His blonde hair was all messed up, and I could faintly see a purpleish pinkish bruise on his neck. Like a hickey.

"Your mom told me you were grounded. Why the fuck are you out?"

"Oh, I was just with Bella, she wanted me to help her find-"

"This loser? The one with tattoo's on his face who probably pops xans on a daily? Thought you were better than that, slut."

I turned my head over to Gus and sighed. "I'm sorry to bother you, we'll be leaving now. Thank you for talking to us, we really appreciate it."

He wouldn't look at me, he was burning holes into Adrian's face. I shouldn't have lied to him, he always finds out. "Yeah, come on, whore. Just like your mom, I swear." I kept my head down as he forcefully grabbed my wrist and pulled me out. Bella followed close behind, with her head down too.

"Look, I may not know much, but I sure know that that's not the right way you treat a damn lady." I turned my head towards Gus. Oh no. "It's alright, Gus, don't worry about it."

"Oh, really, Gus? You're gonna tell me how to treat a lady? With all those marks on your face, I can't imagine you can even get one." I stared at Adrian, then I looked over to Bella. I could see all the excitement of meeting Gustav fade into the shallow depths of her torturous mind. That was where I drew the line.

"Come on, bitch." Adrian squeezed my wrist and pulled me, but I jerked it back. I faintly whispered a no, but he didn't hear. He yanked my wrist again, and I yanked it back. "What was that?"

"I said no. I'm not going with you. You've lied to me. You've cheated on me. You call me names. You've hit me. You're toxic. Toxic waste for that matter. I'm gonna go now. You're not coming with. You're gonna get in your own car with you're other slut and leave me alone. Okay? Okay. Goodbye."

"Wait, no, baby... I'm sorry... I didn't mean-"

"Bullshit. I'm done. Leave or I'm calling the police again. I will press charges this time, too."

He scoffed. "Call me when you stop being a bitch. Oh, and Gus, go ahead and let Luca give me your number. I'll need it."

Gus laughed. "Ahahah, no thanks bro, I have nothing against gay people, but I am no homo my guy."

I covered my mouth to keep from laughing. Adrian left, and shock struck me. I looked at Gus, then down at my wrist. It was slowly bruising up. I rubbed it gently, then looked back at Gus. "I'm so sorry about that, I'll just be on my way now."

"Don't worry about it, it's not your fault. I'm glad you stood up for yourself. Anyways, you guys can't leave without hugs. The Peep fans always give the best hugs." Bella smiled wide.

"Oh my god." She hugged him tight, and he laughed, hugging her back. I went for a quick hug, and then we pulled away. "Thank you so much, it's really appreciated. Have a nice rest of the night, Gus."

"You too."

And with that, we drove off.

And in that instant, I had been set free. I had been set free by a stranger who gave me strength by doing absolutely nothing at all.

How strange.
