Abuse, Pain, Love, and Fame (Mindless Behavior Love Story)

Chapter 5

Amber's pov~

It turns out it took them a lot less than 10 minutes to get ready to go, and in 7 we were pulling off.

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Zoey asked, looking behind us to see the Black car they were all in following us.

"No." I said, truthfully. I wasn't sure if this was a good thing to do at all, But Kate's my best friend and I know how much she loves them, so I figured I better give her some good in her life seeing as though I know what she goes through.

I love Kate (not in a homo way, But as my sister). I wish she would just let me help her, But she's made it Very clear I'm not allowed to do anything. She argues that it's for her safety, But I know it's really for mine.

One time before she randomly passed out, she let it slip that she could take the pain of him finding out because she was used to it, But she wouldn't be able to live with herself if anything had happened to me. I cried myself to sleep that night, knowing my best friend was in pain, and she would endure more of it just to protect me.

"Amber?" I turned to find Zoey looking at me like she was confused.

"What's up?" I asked, then I subconsciously wiped the tears from my eyes that I didn't know were there.

"She's gonna be alright." She said, then gave me a quick hug before leaving out the car. I didn't even realize that I had already made it to her house.

I was about to pull off, But then I looked out my rear view mirror and saw one of the guys getting out of their car and walking towards mine. I felt my breathing start to get heavier when I realized it was None other than Princeton himself.

Great

Just great

Now he's definitely gonna ask you about what happened on the beach.

"Is it OK if I ride with you?" He asked.

I wanted to just say no, But since I couldnt think of a good enough reason to give him on why he couldn't, I reluctantly gave in.

I pulled off, and it was quiet in the car other than the faint noises of the radio that I wouldn't dare cut off. If I did, maybe that might make him think that I want to talk, when I really don't.

Every once and a while I had to look back to make sure Kate was still breathing. I had to look hard, her breathing was Very soft, But once I saw her chest move, I turned back around and continued driving.

After almost hitting a speeding minivan trying to do this, I decided it was to dangerous to keep going on like that.

"Hey Prince, would it be to much to ask if you could keep an eye on her while I drive?" I asked him, trying to make sure I put my turning signal on before passing this one particularly slow moving Ford truck.

He nodded his head, then turned around so that he could easily see her from the front seat. It was silent for about 5 minutes, then I heard him speak.

"How long have you two known each other?" He asked, then made a movement to gently brush some hair out of her face with his hand.

Since I was so busy trying to come up with a better excuse for what happened on the beach, I wasn't expecting this kind of question.

"What?" I found myself asking.

"How Did you two meet?" He rephrased it, and I had to let it register in my mind.

OK, so he's asking about how you and Kate met. Nothing bad in that, right? Just a harmless question. So tell him.  

"Well, it was the first day of kindergarten …"

~FLASHBACK~

"OK Amber, it's time for you to go to school." My mom told me.

"OK! Bye mommy! Bye daddy!" I kissed them both on the cheek, then ran off.

"She took that better than I thought." I heard my dad whisper to my mom, and they both laughed as I walked off.

I eventually found a lot of different kids to play with.

And then Kate came.

~FLASHBACK OVER~

Now this is where the problems came in. He can't know about what really happened.

So what really happened is then Kate came, and she was clinging on to her mom for dear life, crying.

I was going to go up to her and offer her some comfort, But instead, this is what I saw:

Her dad came out of nowhere, eyes red like a bulls. He came and pulled her away from her mom, pushed Kate hard on the ground, then dragged her mom to the car and punched her face, knocking her out, before driving off. I went and helped Kate inside, helped Cleaning her up, and we've been best friends even since.

"And?" He asked, looking back at me, waiting for an answer.

"I went to her and made it easier for her to go in." I told him simply. I hated lying to him, even if I don't know him all that well, But I love Kate and respect her and her secret more.

"OK." Was all he said. It got quiet again, and out of my rear view mirror I could see him gently stroking Kate's face and hair.

How cute.

"OK, we're here." I said, putting the car into park, and getting out. He beat me out, and already had Kate in his arms by the time I step foot outside of my car. I saw Prod Roc and Ray get out of their car, and I sighed a breath as I got my house key out and put it into the keyhole.

Here we go…
