Totally forgot all about this book😫

"What do you mean he left?" I asked as I angrily turned the corner.

"I don't know Lauren. But all I can tell you is that he's not here, and he stormed out the house saying something about Cassidy."

Oh my god. I huffed placing my hand on my face.

"Alright thanks Tay."

"No problem, just-Lauren."

I hummed waiting for her to say something.

"Promise you'll keep her safe. She's been through so much crap with him-and she doesn't deserve anymore pain." I could hear her sniffing indicating to me that she was crying.

I knew Cassidy and Taylor have always been super close. So she's just worried about her, which I can't blame her.

"Hey, I promise you Taylor. I love her, and I'll do my damn best to keep her as safe as possible."

I sighed as I hung up the phone and continued my way through the store.

I can't believe what Taylor just told me. Chris, Chris for some odd reason left and now everyone is all panicked looking for him. We all know he's only doing it for attention.

Ever since we were younger he's been that way. He doesn't get what he wants, so he acts out for attention. Right now, what he wants he's never getting back again. Ever.

Not that I don't care but really why in the hell should I. He abused my girl in ways no one should ever have to experience.

But I'll try my best to not even think about that now. The last thing I need is to upset Cassidy over something I don't even know yet. She's pregnant and she doesn't need the stress.

All I know is, wherever he is, he just needs to stay far away from my Cassidy.

Walking into the store I quickly grabbed everything on her long list. From the jar of pickles to sour patch kids ice cream. The line was so damn long, it was taking me forever.

I knew Cas was gonna be annoyed, especially if I came back with half melted ice cream. So I decided to text her and let her know.

"Shit. Just great." I mumbled once I realized I had no signal at all.

Maybe 5 minutes later I was in front of the line finally able to check out. Once I did, I grabbed all the bags taking them out to my car.

Getting back into the car my phone instantly started buzzing with messages. Guess I got my signal back.

"What in the hell." I reached in my pocket to grab it.

There was a few text and one missed call from Cassidy.

So I tried dialing her back, but it went straight to voicemail. I frowned wondering why she wasn't answering now.

But then, I got a text.

From Dirtbag:

Damn you just missed me sis. Wish I could have seen you stopped by your house and had a great time.😉

Oh no. No no no no. What the fuck was this sick prick talking about?!

My thoughts automatically went to the worst.. but how couldn't it. What else could he have meant but what he said.

To Dirtbag:

Chris, I swear to god if you laid a finger on her. I will kill you myself.

Not even a second later he text me back.

From Dirtbag:

Good thing it was more than just a finger.😈 talk to you soon sis❤️

I slammed my fists on the stirring wheel. "Fucking bitch!"

I don't remember a thing after that. All I know is I made it home in under 10 minutes. When I got out the car, the first thing I noticed was how the front door was unlocked. I knew for sure I locked it when I left.

"Cassidy!" I shouted as I pushed through the door. It was quiet, a little too quiet. Because usually, I would be able to hear the sound of Cassidy's laughter from upstairs or her talking out loud to herself.

But right now. In this moment, I couldn't hear anything.

Walking up the stairs I looked around in her room but she wasn't there. But I could see that she was, shit was pushed around, and thrown everywhere.

"Oh my god." I mumbled taking in the space.

Chris came in here and took her?! 

That was my first thought and I was about to go fucking ape shit!

But then I started to hear what sounded like a moaning sound. But it was coming from down the hall, in my room.

My heart started pounding fast. At this point I knew it wasn't anything good. I ran down the hall into my room and froze at the site I saw.

Cassidy laying on my bed in a pool of her own blood.

"Oh my god Cassidy, Cassidy can you hear me? Are you ok?" I asked panicked and not sure what to do. I jumped on the bed trying my best to comfort her in some way.

She was beat bad, so bad she couldn't open either of her eyes. Her clothes were torn

"L-Lauren, I think he killed my-"

That's all she said before crying and I looked down to her stomach and saw that she had some bruising forming. Most of her blood was coming from under her. It wasn't a good sign.

As the tears ran down my face I fished for my phone. "Shhh don't worry Cassidy. I'm gonna get you some help."

She didn't say anything, all she did was lay her head back against me.

"God, I'm so so sorry Cassidy. I'm sorry!"

I thought I could protect her from getting hurt. But in end, I still failed.
