Chapter Seven ~ The beauty in you

Andrews POV

It's pouring down rain and I'm now running home with a drenched Astrid in my arms. My little sister is running beside me and let me tell you she is going to be a very sporty kid when she is older because she can run half my speed at the age of six. Anyway, when I get my hands on Astrid's father I'm going to kill him, I mean it, even if I go to jail with him. She is worth it.

By the time I get home, I threw the front door open "Melissa! get me a towel, now!" I yelled.

Aunt Mel ran into the living room where I was standing with a towel draped over her shoulder. She gasps when she sees a fragile and beaten Astrid in my arms looking broken. Out of nowhere, Astrid screams, but the scream wasn't of fear or happiness it was of pain and my heart squeezed at the sound of it.

"Shh, Astrid baby it's going to be okay. Just stay with us kitten please" I pleaded and pulled a piece of wet blonde hair out of her eyes.

"It's her isn't it" Aunt Mel interrupts

"What?"

"She is the one that makes my drew smile and the one that has made my Drew fall in love" she more says to herself than me. But love? no, i can't love her yet I've only known her a week. Is it even possible to love someone in a week? I can't love her yet it will take time, right?

"Yes, it is possible Drew" Aunt Mel said out of know where.

"What?" I ask confused.

"Yes, it is possible for you to full in love in a week. And Drew this girl must be special if you have already have fallen in love with her" Aunt Mel said with a bright smile on her face.

Did I actually say that out loud I'm so stupid?

"Yes Drew you did say that out loud and you are not stupid you maybe silly but not stupid" my Aunt shakes her head still with that bright smile on her face.

"Isn't that the same thing?" she shrugs.

Astrids eyes flicker open slowly and she looks up at me with pain and fear in her eyes "Andrew, I hurt so so much" she screeches out and a few tears escape her delicate green eyes and I unexpectedly bend down and kiss them away, again. I'm being such a girl and is it bad to say I actually like it?

"I know baby. I'm going to take you up to my room and get you in some dry clothes, okay?"

"Hmm" she mumbled with a nod.

"Mel can you maybe call a doctor that can come over in the morning to check up on her," I ask

"OK sweetly, you just take her up to your room okay"

Aunt Mel left the room and went to go call a doctor and I took her up to my room and laid her on my queen-sized bed and went over to my dresser and grabbed a t-shirt that perfectly fits me and it would look like a dress on my Astrid. Aha, why do I keep calling her my Astrid? because you love her idiot, a voice in the back of my head cried.

Astrid yelped when I set her up. But she couldn't sit up alone because she is a bit out of it so I slipped one hand under her drenched white t-shirt to steady her. And the feeling of her skin torching mine sent electric sparks up my arm and it felt really nice.

I lift up her white tank top and lift it over her head and throw the damp shirt on the ground not caring if it put water all over the floor. She had a black sports bra on and she is that skinny you could just see the outline of her big cage and she has a scar straight down the middle of her stomach, it looks like its being there for a while, but I can't be to shore.

I was about to put my shirt up over her head but her voice stopped me "Andrew, take my pants off please" what she said that it made me tense up a little but I recovered quickly and put my shirt back down on the bed. I undo the button on her dark blue ripped at the knees skinny jeans and slid them down and slowly slid it over her swollen ankle. I can feel my buddy harden and I feel really guilty because of it but I'm a teenage boy with lots of hormones, so you can't blame me I'm a growing teenage boy.
