Chapter 17: I'll be here for you

Previously in chapter 16...

"Emily? This is the first time you've stopped crying since earlier happened love. Are you ready to talk?"

"Y-yeah I guess."

"Emily, what's been happening?"

"We haven't...We haven't been the same for months. He...he has changed." "What do you mean...he hasn't been the same for months?"

"Well...he become more aggressive with his words...his actions."

"Your wrist...Your wrist about a week ago."

........................................

"Emily? Have you got marks on your body?"

"He would abuse me pretty much every day. Punch, kick, attack, bite. You...You name it. I...I can't do this."

"I hate myself. It's all my fault, it's all down to me. I can't even look at myself in the mirror anymore without thinking that I just want to die, get away from all of this."

Getting up, we pull the blinds back from the window only to find something that will help us all out. Chris in handcuffs. "What? What's going on?"

"Christopher Collins, we are arresting you on suspicion of abusing women.You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to have an attorney present during questioning. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you."

"You killed what was left of the good in me."

***Dynasty's P.O.V***

I'ts been 2 days since everything has happened with Emily. Ever since Chris has been arrested, Emily has not been the same. Shes been depressed, severely. I hate it. One of the worst possible things to encounter is seeing one of the people you love go through so much, feel so much pain and not to be able to help. Not to be able to comfort them because so matter how much or how hard you try, in there eyes nothing will make there emotions form into something better. Too her there is no hope from moving on. Its not like I blame her; I can't understand what she is going through because luckily enough I haven't been through the same thing but I will never stop in trying to make her feel better.

I've been trying to be there for her for the past few days but last night she told me she just wants the day to her self. I'm respecting her wishes but I just have a this horrible thought at the back of my head that she will do something stupid. I'm sure she won't though? I mean... will she?

Ugh I really wish that I wouldn't think about this. She will text me if she needs me, I know she will! She knows that I'm always here for her. Anywhere, anytime, anyplace.

It's the weekend and I'm not doing anything, it seriously sucks. Parents are working, usual story. Ozzie is either asleep or just out with his mates, I cant be bothered to walk to his room and find out. Emily is at home, as we have just been through this and I'm seriously stuck on what to do. I do not, I repeat I do not want to stay at home all day and do nothing but eat because I know that will be what I do if I don't make any plans soon.

I know who to ask! Wait... no I'll seem despereate! Wait... no I won't, it's not like anythings going on is it? Oh forgod sake! I wish I wouldn't talk to myself, it's so weird.
