Chainsmoking your Love

Blind Anger

"Get out here! Get out here now! I'm gonna kill you! I'm gonna fucking kill you" Lori cried

Lincoln, was now completely afraid for his life, the way she was talking told him that there was indeed some truth in her words. Lincoln lowered himself to the ground his back still pressed up against the door. Hot tears rolled down his face as Lori kept threatening his life.

Unforntently, he wasn't strong enough...

Lori had managed to break the door lock and she busted in. Lincoln was now faced with an angry Lori.

"L-Lori Please I-" Lincoln began

He didn't finish his sentence as Lori approached him and the grabbed him by his black sweater and lifted him up.

"YOU LITTLE FUCK! DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'VE DONE!?" Lori cried

"Lori P-Please! I-"

"YOU RUINED ME! RUINED MY LIFE! YOU'VE BEEN RUINING MY LIFE SINCE YOU WERE BORN!" Lori cried "EVERYDAY I HAVE TO LIVE WITH YOU! I'M ALWAYS THERE FOR YOU AND HOW TO YOU REPAY ME!? BY RUINING MY LIFE!"

She then threw Lincoln to her left only to hear a loud crack, she turned to see that Lincoln's head had hit the edge of his shelf and she then looked down to her brother and saw that the right side of his head, his white hair, now was stained with hints of blood, Lincoln was now looking to her. both sadness and hate flowed through his eyes.

Lori had finally realized what she had done and was horrified, "L-Lincoln I'm-"

But before she could finish, Lincoln pushed her to the side causing her to fall on his bed and he ran... he ran so fast out of the door that the older siblings who had to walk home saw him rushing out. They called out to him but Lincoln didn't stop, he ran as far as he could away from the home that didn't care for him... away from the sister that never wanted him.

Lincoln ran, he turned and ran into an apartment complex, he jumped fences before he slipped and landed in a backyard. He landed hard on the ground and yelped in pain. Lincoln lied on the ground. Tears flowed out of his eyes as the realization hit him. He was never loved by his older sister. He was a burden to her... He knew that... but when the words came it hurt. His heart hurt. His head hurt. He just lied on the ground and cried.

"Lincoln?" Came a voice

Lincoln got up quickly and turned to the porch. There he saw a tall girl with red hair and a shirt that showed her midriff. Lincoln knew who she was. This was Becky.

Lincoln sat on the ground as Becky sat on the couch and wrapped his head in bandages.

"and done!" Becky said

Lincoln touched his head, the middle of it was wrapped in bandages

"Thank you, Becky," Lincoln said

"what? not going to call me babushka?" Becky teased

Lincoln heard the slight strain in her voice but shook his head. Becky looked to the poor boy told him to sit next to her on the couch. Lincoln did and Becky looked at him, her eyes trained on the white-haired boy and looked to his eyes. She saw the same look in his eyes when she was a little girl.

"Lincoln? what happened?" Becky asked

Lincoln looked to her and his head went back down in shame

"Lincoln it's ok to tell me... I promise I won't tell a soul" Becky told him

Lincoln continued to keep his head down and sighed. He could hear the sadness in Becky's words but he was still scared to tell her, however, he knew it wouldn't do any good to keep holding it in.

"Lori... she came home early and was mad at me for some reason. She told me that I ruined her life since I was born... she threw me to the side and my head hit my shelf and I ran out of there as soon as possible..." Lincoln said

Becky was horrified and sick to her stomach. She felt as this was her fault. She had fought Lori and told her what she knew and she assumed Lincoln told her.

"L-Lincoln I'm sorry," Becky said

Lincoln looked at her, "it's fine"

"NO, IT'S NOT!" Becky shouted

Lincoln was taken aback from Becky's outburst and looked to see that she had tears in her slowly forming in her eyes, Lincoln didn't know why this had affected her, but he didn't get to ask as Becky brought him into a tight hug. Lincoln didn't know why, but he could tell that she was upset. It hurt him to know that he was somewhat the cause of this.

"Lincoln... I got into a fight with Lori today because Carol told me about what Lori and your family did to you" Becky said

Lincoln's eyes went wide

"If I have known that it would have caused this I would have never-"

But before she could finish she felt Lincoln's arms wrap around her neck and she heard him sob a little.

"It's ok Becky... You didn't know... but thank you..." Lincoln said

Becky wrapped her arms around Lincoln tighter and smiled

"thank you for being caring when My family didn't..." Lincoln sobbed.
