Foster

Chapter 14

For the next three days, Angel wouldn't speak to me. We were sitting at the breakfast table. "Angel, I'm sorry." I said glancing down at my waffles. She scoffed. Kobe munched on his cereal and turned red. Alyson was off at a friends. Elaine and Robert called and said they'd come back in a few more days. "I just can't believe it. You and Kobe. I'm surprised you guys didn't have sex." Angel said. "What?! No way, I'm a virgin." I said turning red. Angel rolled her eyes. I smacked my hand on the table, making her jump. "I said I am." through clenched teeth. She stabbed her fork in her pancakes and excused her self. I sat there with Kobe. I put my hands on my temples and squeezed my eyes shut. I had this blinding headache and I was furious. I would NEVER have sex with Kobe, let alone anyone at this age. I've never felt so offended in my life. "Give her a while." Kobe said interrupting my thoughts. I looked at him. For the first time, I noticed his face, he smiled at me. Darn, why'd you have to be my brother I thought. "I'm sorry we made out." I said getting up from the table. I tugged my shoes on and left the house. I needed to go on a walk. I didn't really know the area well, but I decided to leave the neighborhood and try to find a park somewhere.

I had an eerie feeling that I was lost. As I was walking a car pulled up to me. Three guys were in it. "Hey sexy." one of them said. I ignored them and kept walking. They followed me. I walked quicker, and the car still followed me. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT?" I said snapping at them. "Aye, lady chill. Where you tryna go? I could take you." the darkest one said. "Leave me the hell alone." I said boldly, truth was I was scared.

"Bitch, get in the car." he said. "I'm not a bitch, and I'm sure as hell not getting in that car. Leave me alone before I call the cops."

The lightest one with an eyebrow piercing came out the car and grabbed me. I tried kicking and screaming. He punched me in the stomach and I grew weak and nearly fell. He started kicking me repeatedly and I felt something crack in my leg. I screamed out in pain. "Dude come on let's go!" The one in the back said. The guy that beat me up got in the car and they drove off. The pain in my leg rose to my thigh. I cried for help. "CAELEN?" I heard someone call my name. I looked up, my neck took control of me and my head fell back down. "OH MY GOD, CAELEN." the voice said. It was Kobe's. "Ow." was all I could say. "Who did this to you?" he asked. "I ...don't know...three...guys." I said trying to speak.

Kobe lifted me up and carried me. "Careful, he ..broke my leg..." I said crying. "Don't worry." Kobe said over and over again cradling my head. That's all I remember before I blacked out.
