I Knew You Were Trouble (A Kadison Love Story) *Completed*

Chapter Ten

(Madison's POV)

I looked at Kat, her eyes wide and curious... But also full of fear. "Kat..." I reached forward to hug her, but she pulled back. "You... You killed someone?" She stuttered, moving away from us. I stood up and nodded, and sighed. "We had our reasons though..." "No, Madison. You had no right to take someone's life. I don't care what he did... That's just wrong. This is why I stayed cooped up all those years! I didn't want to be associated with people like you!" She spat with disgust. Ouch. As she walked towards the door, tears began to spill out of my eyes, I needed her to hear me out. "Wait!" I croaked. This must've gotten her attention, because she stopped walking, and slowly turned around. "What?" "You don't know what he did. He hurt Nicolette... He did things to her... Things a girl should never have to go through... Please just tell me this. If you were raped... Wouldn't you want someone to do something to the douchebag that did it to you?" I asked, my eyebrows raising. Kat looked at me, and then sighed. "Yes." "Exactly. And that's exactly what me and Mikey did. I understand we could've handled it better, but we acted in the heat of the moment. We do regret it at times, but at the end of the day, he got what he deserved. We do our best to protect the people we love. And that's what we're going to do for you now. Don't panic, but Keith, Nicolette's ex's brother, was watching you...." I said, her eyes filled with tears, and she began to pace around the room. "What am I going to do? What if he tries to hurt Vinny? My mom? Are they going to be okay? Oh my God. Oh my God..." She stopped in front of me, and buried her face in her hands, crying. Oh my God, my heart. I wrapped my arms around her, and rubbed her back. "Everything will be okay. We'll take care of you, and your family. But, I need to tell you something..." "Yes?" She looked up at me, her eyes curious. I sighed. "You're going to have to come stay here with us. Just for your safety...." I said. She sighed, and closed her eyes tight to hold back tears. Finally, she opened them back up again, and sighed. "Okay. Can you take me home so I can get some clothes?" I nodded, and called up JSTARR so he could drive us there. God, I feel so terrible. She got sucked into my world, and now her life won't ever go back to normal...
