Die In Her Arms (Matthew Espinosa)

Chapter 2

Felicitys POV

I walked In the door and see my mom.

"Honey? Why are you home so early?"

Just then the phone rang.

She answered and her eyes went wide at me.

They hung up.

"DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR FATHERS GONNA DO?!"

I started crying.

I ran into my room.

I heard my dad walk in furious and drunk as ever.

He got the call too.

"FELICITY!" His voice roared through the house.

I walked downstairs

"Y-yes.." I said.

"Take your shirt off, now!" I did as I was told and he took his belt off.

"Turn around!"

He took his belt and slapped it hard against my back.

Slap

Slap

Slap

Slap

It was slap after slap after slap.

Soon my back became so numb.

The pain was so unbearable.

"NOW GO!" He said finally after 20 minutes of beating.

I walked up the stairs and into my room.

I locked my door.

I took my phone out and called Payton.

"Felicity?"

"P-Payton.." I said choking on words.

"Felicity! What happened?!"

"I need you t-to come over..my dad just left for a business trip and I could really use you"

"I'm on my way."

Payton's POV

I drove over to Felicitys and knocked on the door.

It opened and revealed her mom.

"Hey honey...she's upstairs..."

I nodded and walked up.

I opened the door after she unlocked it.

"What did he do to you?" I asked.

She slowly turned around revealing her bleeding welts.

"He smacked me with a belt..."

I knew he hit her but I never thought he'd go this far.

"Come on, we have to get you in the bath."

She slowly walked towards her bathroom.

She ran the water, she sat first, her shorts got soaked.

I helped her slowly lay back.

She screamed at the pain.

I feel horrible, she was fully layed down, I held her hair so it didn't get the bloody water in it.

She stood up, she stepped out and drained water that looked she was murdered.
