After my shower, I felt achy because of my cramps. I went to lay down and Heard the door open. My cramps were slowly getting worse and I curl up into a ball. "Kyler, you're pale." Ashton said with concern. "I'm fine." I managed to choke up. I didn't want Ashton to worry about me. Its not like this is my first time being on my period. I let out a loud groan in pain and hear Ashton mumble "you are not fine, Kyler. Scoot over." I didn't fight, just simply did what he said. I feel his strong hands wrap around my waist with his hands rubbing my stomach. I felt a sudden ease but could still feel alittle of the pain. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
~*~ 3 hours later~*~
I wake up to a banging on the front door. It keeps going and causes me to panic. "Ashton, someone is at the door." I wake him up from his slumber. "What?" Ashton asks concerned. "Someone is trying to break into the house. They are banging on the door." I reply with a whisper. Scared shitless. "Stay here. Everything is going to be okay." He said before leaving the room with a bat.
I hear a loud bang and My heart rate picks up its pace. I hear another bang. What if Ashton is down there being murdered? The idea of it scares me. I open the door and see a man beating Ashton. I begin to panic. "Tell me where she is you stupid boy." The voice sounds so familiar. "She isn't here." I see blood all over Ashton's face. The man looks up and I see his face. Its my uncle. He can beat me but not Ashton. I run to the bathroom and find a razor.
I quickly and sneakily go down stairs and come up behind my uncle. I yell "hey" and my uncle turns around. I pull the razor down his face causing blood to come to his surface. He screams out in pain and I get his eye. I find broken glass on the floor and push my uncle to it. He lies there unconscious. I run to Ashton who is half awake. I run and go grab a bag of clothes for both of us, my phone, and Ashton's keys. I help Ashton up and help him walk to his car. I through our stuff in the back and start the car. Pulling out of the drive way I call luke.
"Hey Kyler, Wha-" I cut him off "My uncle is on the search, Ashton is losing so much blood, I am taking him to the hospital. I will explain everything later. Can you get the guys and meet us there?" I say all in one breath. "Yea. We will be there shortly." He says quickly. I hang up and drive as fast as I can.
We arrive at the hospital and I help Ashton walk in. "WE NEED A DOCTOR, PLEASE!!" I scream with a bunch of people rushing my way. "We've got him sweetie. He will be okay." I watch as they take him back to an emergency room. I feel the tears begin to well up in my eyes. They were falling out like a stream. I let out a sob and put my head into my hands. I can't do this. I feel someone's hand being placed on my shoulder. I flinch away until I see who it was. It was Luke with the boys behind them. Nothing but frowns on their faces. "This is all my fault." I cry again.
"Kyler, You can't help the fact that your uncle is a maniac." I hear Michael say. "But I could help by going back, or calling the cops when it happened." I say between sobs. "I don't know how much he knows about who I have met but I can't allow you guys to be in this. I need to run when I have the chance." I say quickly. "Kyler, leaving isn't going to help anything." Luke says. I begin to pace, my mind racing. Am I going crazy? I need to get away. I need to run. But I need to know that Ashton is okay. "Kyler you need to sit down before you explode." Calum says with worry.
"This is all my fault. This is all my fault. This is all my fault. This is all my fault." I kept whispering that Untill I fell asleep in the hard hospital Chairs.
~*~
I was woken up by one of the nurses shaking me lightly. " Hello dear. Your friend is going to be alright but he is pretty banged up. He is asleep right now but if you want to see him you can." I nodded giving her a small smile.
I found my way to room 324 and quietly opened the door. I walked over to Ashton's bed and sat down in the chair. I grabbed his hand bringing it up to my face and lightly kissing it. "I'm so sorry." I whispered.
I think the nurse was being nice when she said he was only a little banged up because looking at him it was worse that I thought. He had a black eye several stitches and bruises on his arms. But that was all I could see without touching him. There probably was more on his torso. I felt warm tears slide down my face.
I let go of his hand and stood up. This was all my fault. I can't do this, I couldn't handle him getting hurt again because of me.
I walked it of the room and up to the nurses desk. I asked for some paper an a pen. I wrote a note to Ash. Folding it up I handed it to the nurse. " Can you please give this to Ashton Irwin when he wakes up." she nodded. "sure dear. Will you be back?" I nodded my head yes. She smiled not know I was lying. I wasn't coming back. I was leaving and going as far away as I could. I can't let my friends be hurt because of me.
No one else can get hurt again because of me.
