Bruised

Chapter 10

Jaeden P.O.V
Molly won't answer me and I'm starting to get frustrated. I want to yell and make her tell me if he did all of this to her, but I didn't want to scare her. And I couldn't do that to her, she would break down and so would I at the sight.

"Did he do all of this to you?" I asked her with a more calming voice.

She still didn't answer, instead she looked down and tried to cover her body the best that she could. I sighed and helped her dress, hoping that if she felt more comfortable she would talk to me.

*sigh* "Yes, he did do this to me"

I felt my whole body tense when she said that. My knuckles were turning white from holding my hands in a fist for so long. Molly obviously noticed and she rubbed her arm nervously while looking down at the ground. I then calmed myself down, taking a deep breath, and un-tensing my body.

I pulled myself out of my thoughts and hugged Molly. She hugged me back and we stood there for a while before we both pulled away from each other.

"Do you want to watch a movie?" I asked, she nodded her head 'yes' and we went down stairs. "What do you want to watch?" I asked her as she go situated on the couch.

"The Lion King?" She asked

"Too cheesy" I said in a sarcastic tone.

"Oh come on," she pouted at my comment and I sighed. I can't stand it when she makes that face, it's my weakness.

"Alright, we can watch it."

She jumped up and stuck her tongue out at me, knowing that she won the argument. I swear i love this girl...I rolled my eyes and put the movie in, then sat down on the other side of the couch, away from Molly. I honestly just wanted to see what her reaction would be. I could feel her looking at me and pouting, I reached over and sat her down beside me and she cuddled into me, resting her head on my chest. I want her to know how I really feel about her.

                  2 months later

It has been two months since Molly has been at my house, she's really starting to adjust to her new life. We go to doctors appointments every Wednesday to do something about Molly's weight since shes still skinny. I don't know why, but she won't gain weight. We are going to the doctors today and they're going to run some tests on her to figure out why she can't gain weight.

"Are you ready to go?"

She nods slowly and walks past me, not saying anything. I drop it and leave her be.

The whole car ride was silent. We didn't even look at eachother. Molly stared out of the window and I focused on driving. I can tell shes nervous and I am too. *sigh* I just hope she can be helped.

             At the doctors office

We went inside and sat in the waiting room, impatiently waiting for the doctor to call Molly in. After 10 minutes the doctor called her in. He started by checking Molly's weight, 65 pounds, that's 3 pounds she has lost in 1 week. The doctor sighed and sat Molly down on the table, he checked her heart rate, it was normal, reflexes, normal, and blood pressure, also normal. But her weight was the thing I was worried about. He took Molly in and ran some test, I wasn't allowed to come in, so I paced outside the door until she came out. The doctor had a sad look on his face. 'What could be wrong?' I thought to myself. Is she sick? Will she be okay? Was I not feeding her enough? A million thoughts ran through my mind but I was pulled out of them by the doctor calling my name.

"I have very bad news" he said.

"What is it? Tell me."

"I'll take you all back to the room and fill you in on what is happening." He leads me to the room, and Molly is already in here, sitting with her head in her hands. She sits up once I come in and I sit down beside her.

"So, what is going on?" I ask impatiently.

"I have looked over the tests and her weight loss is because of a bad health issue."

"Well, what is it?" I was starting to get frustrated with this doctor.

He pauses.

"She has bulimia..."
