Haunted (Under Construction)

Happy Places (part 1)

Hello my wonderful reader! befor you read this just let me warn you...

THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS A "NOT-SO-HAPPY" CHAPTER

if things like this desturb you then I understand and you do not have to read it.

Thats why I put the "not-so-happy" part in BOLD so you can just skip it! See isn't that better! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I stood there frozen, unable to move. I cold feel that Jericho was still parked out side the house, and would most likely not leave until he knee I was alright. Cathy stood in front of me with her arms crossed glaring at me. 

"where hell have you been." She demanded. 

"I was studying. I went to the library. I swear." I told them. Ben came forward and grabbed me by the hair. I shrieked but I refuse to cry. 

"Shut the hell up and tell the truth!" He yelled in my ear. 

"I- I'm not. You all we watching TV and I didn't want to bug you so I just- I just left." I said. I could feel his anger. I could also hear his- their thought. To be honest what they were thinking was scaring me shit-less. They weren't planing on letting me walk away.

"You fucking liar!" And with that his large hand made contact with my face. The next thing I knew was I was thrown against the wall and my head made contact with a picture frame. I let out a blood curdling shriek. I fell to the floor and reached for the back of my head. I pulled my hand away and stared in horror ar my red covered hand. I looked up to see that all three of them were walking towards me. My eyes widened when I heard their thoughts and realized what was going to happen. 

"Please no!" I yelled. Terrance's lips pulled back into a cruel and wicked smile. I let out another cry of pain when I felt the first blow. I curled up into a ball and hugged my knees as I tried to protect my self from unneeded harm. I did the only thing I could. I thought of my happy place, and right now my only happy place was Jericho. I could see his smile as the sun shined down on him. Just the thought of him seamed to ease the tremendous pain all over my body from their repetitive kicks. I took a deep breath as I could feel my contiousness slipping away from me. I was then engulfed in a dark dreamless rest. 

Jericho

I watched as she fadded into the rain ad out of my sight. As soon as she was out of sight I let down my strong front. I punched the steering wheel and cussed. 

"Dammit! Dammit to hell!" I yelled. I rested my head on the steering wheel. My wolf whimpered for his mate, and I didn't blame him. I knew I shouldn't have let her go in three, but what choice did I have? It was just like she said, " the consequences of not going would be greater." I wanted to go in there and grab her so I can take her far far away from them.

I composed my self and went to turn my keys but stopped when I felt a sharp pain on the back of my head. Followed by a loud shriek. I could recognize that voice anywhere. Avery! I unbuckled my seat belt and reached for the door. 

No! I heard my wolf yell. 

What? I asked him in shock. 

Don't go! If you go they'll take her away from us... or worse. he told me. I rested my head on the steering wheel once more. I let the tears fall this time. I didn't hold them back. I could feel her pain and hear her cries, yet I couldn't help her. Instead of helping her- saving her- I was stuck on the side lines just waiting for her to tell me she's alright. That was all I could do, just wait for her. I thought about her smile, her timid manor, her eyes , all of her. 

I sat there for what seamed like forever until the pain stopped. I let out a sigh of relief. but then I only begin to worry more when I couldn't hear her anymore. It was like she there any more. I started to panic. What happened to her? What if she was't alright? 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

okay so just to confirm this is PART 1 of CHAPTER 16. I know It's short! But I had to in order to benefit the plot development. (I hope that makes sense..) 

So yes, there will be a second upload soon. 

also... as far as my little "I don't know who Jericho is" melt down i think I found him. Look up Eian Scully :) 

And more importantly if you didn't read the "not-so-happy" part then let me summarise it for you:

Avery comes home -> she gets yelled at -> gets beaten up -> thinks of Jericho as her "happy place" -> and then passes out from pain/ blood loss.  

Okay! hope that help! talk to you next upload! :D
