Rylee Girl

The Teeny Tiny Mistake

"Mistakes have the power to turn you into something better than you were before."

I woke up Monday afternoon all sorts of confused. I also woke up to a voicemail from Benjamin singing Gary Allen's "Airplanes" then telling me to give him a call back. I smiled from ear to ear. He is a dork. But a cute one. I went into the kitchen and saw my mom standing at the sink with her back to me. The water was running but she wasn't moving.

"Mom?" I called out, but she didn't answer.

"Mom!" I said louder shaking her on the shoulder making her jump.

"Oh, Rylee girl you scared me." She finally answered.

"Scared you?? You scared me! What's wrong?" I asked frantically. That's when I saw the bruise on her face. I grabbed her chin and turned her face so I could see it better. She hung her head and began to sob.

"Mom!" I gasped wrapping my arms around her as she sobbed into my shoulder. We sank to the floor where I continued to hold my mother as she cried into my arms. When she was finally able to compose herself, I asked her what had happened. She told me that last night at Alex's house she saw a message on his phone from some girl he had met at the club and when my she confronted him about it he back handed her telling her that it was none of her damn business.

"Look... I know he's been horrible to you in the past. But is this the first time that he's ever hit you? Please be honest with me." I asked her sounding like the parent. She shook her head 'no'.

"I'm calling the cops" I said getting off the floor.

"NO!" She screamed at me grabbing my leg to stop me from walking.

"Are you fucking serious mom?! I'm calling them!" I yelled trying to escape her grip.

"Rylee Girl... don't. It'll make things worse. I'm never going to see him again. I promise. Just please... Don't." She begged. I shook her off me and just looked at her.

"You're pathetic." I shook my head and walked back to my room. I could hear her sobbing on the floor again.

"I'm coming over. I can't be here." I texted Piper.

"See you soon" was her reply.

I get to Pipers house and walk into her room. When I opened the door all I saw was Joeys big naked ass with my best friends' little legs coming out from underneath him.

"Ahh!!" I screamed shutting my eyes and slamming the door shut.

I could hear laughter erupting inside the room then about a minute later I hear "Sorry Rylee girl! It's safe now!" Piper yelled from inside the room.

"Joey has pants on?" I yelled back.

"Yes!! Come in!" She laughed.

"You knew I was coming over! What the hell!!" I yelled at them both when I walked back into the room. 

"Sorry we thought we had more time." They both giggled.

"Well... while y'all are over here making babies my mom's getting beat by Alex and not wanting to do anything about it!" I complained.

"Alex hit your mom?" Piper practically screamed.

"I'll fucking kill him." Joey chimed in.

"Yeah. She won't even let me call the cops while she has a visible bruise on her fucking face. I don't know what to do. Why am I having to be the parent here. This is so unfair!" I cried to Piper.

"Your mom is lucky to have you Rylee girl... she'll come to her senses." Piper tried to reassure me.

I'm not so sure but what else can I do.
