When Does It End? Dave X Reader-Insert

Chapter 16

A/N: Last chapter was a little bit of a ride. So, the summery is, Reader-chan's father was drunk, said some shit, threw her around, and forced himself on her. The police were called by Bro, Dave broke in, the police showed up, and took the father away.

Dave helps me out of the truck, and leads me into the police department. The female officer is there, and greets me. She leads us down a few hallways and into an interrogation room. She and I go in alone, and instead of sitting on one side, she pulls a chair next to me. She turns on a recorder on the table, and reads me my rights.

She starts asking me questions, mostly about today. What happened before they got there, what seemed to trigger him, etc. I answered quietly, but tried to be loud enough for the record. I knew it was important that they heard what I said. I tried to be truthful as I could. She probed into the timeline, and I started crying. I managed to tell her that he'd been hitting me for a long time.

She told me thank you, she has what she needs for now. She leads me back out to the hallway, back to the brothers, and asks Dave to follow her. Bro sits with me, holding me to his chest.

He speaks softly to me, "Dave told me what he saw. I'm sorry, [Y/N]. We'll be here for ya."

I nod in response and lean into him. Dave comes back out and switches with Bro. Soon, Bro comes back out. We're told we can go, and advised we go to the hospital to get treated and make sure I don't have a concussion.

We go, go to the hospital, and go through the procedure there. I don't have a concussion, but I do get some cuts treated properly. The rest of the day goes by, and the next, and I have a court date to testify against my father.

I'm given an attorney, who I meet a few days before court. We go over what we can, before my emotions get the better of me. Court comes and goes, my father is found guilty, and is sentenced to prison for 35 years with no probation.

Before I know it, he's gone. The legal processes are done. Dave and Bro helped me pack up what little stuff I wanted to keep, and sold everything else, including the house. The money from it was put aside for me to spend and save. Bro helped me move into an apartment in the same building as the brothers, just a few floors below them. I only needed enough room to live, so I settled for a cozy studio apartment. I bought a proper bed, a couch, a new dresser, and a bookshelf and desk.

Days passed, and I went back to school. I focused on my studies, only because I was so close and I didn't need to worry too much about money just yet. Dave and I helped each other study at night, and we grew closer and closer. He became my support, without a moments hesitation. He jokes around a lot, and proclaims himself my knight.

A/N: This chapter is short, and I pretty much just pulled it out of my ass, but I wanted this little time skip. The next chapter will take place a couple months in the future, which leaves room for Reader-Chan to heal a bit from the traumatic events. And thank you for all the reads and votes!! I appreciate every single one of you for reading my story, even though it started to turn to shit towards the end haha. I definitely slacked on the content. But again, thank you so much!!!
