Jonny's pov:
Imani was just standing the tears started to fall from her eyes. Landon looked at me concerned.
"Imani are you ok?" I asked getting up.
She didn't answer me.
"Imani?" I said putting my hand on her shoulder.
That was a mistake. She jumped and started screaming and cry begging me not to hurt her. I back up a little and kept assuring her that I wasn't going to hurt her. She back away in a corner and sat down holding her knees and rocking back and forth,and crying. I look over at Landon he was trying to get out of his bed.
"Landon don't" I say.
"I-i can't watch her like this." He said choking up.
I walk over to her and knelt down in front of her.
"Imani are you okay." I asked very calm.
I slowly lifted my arm,and she immediately flinched.
"Imani I would never hurt you" I whispered.
I slowly wrapped my arm around her, which caused Imani to tremble in fear. I slowly pulled her into my chest.
"I-I'm sorry i-i can't live like this and I won't , D-Donte I-i'm sorry I-I m-made you mad,j-just p-please don't hurt me" She said bawling.
Landon's pov:
"D-Donte p-please don't hurt me" Imani said crying in Jonny's chest.
That shattered me.
I wish I could just hug her and comfort her but I got fucking shot making not being able to be there for her when she needs me the most. Jonny was rocking her back and forth trying every thing he can to calm her down, and it was kind of working I think. I sit there just watching him and I start to feel tears come down.
" I wish that was me" I whisper to myself.
Jonny got up with Imani still in his arms. He slowly walks her over to me.
"He won't hurt either Imani" Jonny whispered to her.
I hold out my arms as Jonny sat her on the bed. I pulled her close to me as she laid down next to me. She buried her face in my chest, she was shaking a little.
"I'm going to head out,I'll be back in a bit" Jonny said giving me a hug. " stay strong love" he said kissing to top of Imani's head, and walked out.
