As I start to come to, all the pain from the earlier assault came rushing back. Giving into the pain I gave out a husky groan. As if on cue, the familier beautiful voice speaks up "Are you feeling better? Where do you hurt?" I try to sit up, but the instant I barely start moving up a shock of pain waved through my body. With that I let out a loder groan "Ugh!" As soon as I got flat on my back once again, I found myself looking up to that beautiful face. He looked at me with sadden eyes and said "I guess everywhere. Sorry I didn't find you sooner." I give out a half laugh, half sigh "It's ok. I've been harssed by them before. It's just never went this far." As I explain more of the story, I see the concern bloom more in his eyes. When I finally brought the story to a close he asked "Why the hell did you let it go on for so long?"

I blinked trying to take in what he just said. I asked "What?"
He repiled "I know that you were feeling down after losing your friends, but why would you just take the abuse?"
I lay there stunned. Never has anyone told me I could choose to stand up for myself. I stuttered "W-well I-I didn't...I-I mean I.."
I struggled to find the words. His stern look softened into a calming understanding look. He came up and gently warped his arms around my aching body. As if it was magic, my pain just flew away. I start to sit up but only to find this boy say "You need to rest. By the way my name's Kurt. Kurt Portter."
"Kurt Portter." I echoed. Kurt gave out a little snicker "Yeah. So what's your name?" It took me a bit to register what I've been asked. Something about his name was familier. "Oh...um.. Kyle James." His calming expression turned into a delighful surprise "Kyle James? Your dad's Rodger James right?" I nodded in agreement and asked "How do you know my dad?"
He said "My mom's dating him."

My mouth dropped. Kurt Portter was the son of my dad's girlfriend, Makenize Portter. I just couldn't believe it. Kurt chuckled "Hard to believe huh?" I just nod in astonishment. He continues "Well I think you should get some sleep. I'll stay here until you wake up, okay?" I mutter "Okay." But I didn't want to sleep. All I wanted to do is to just talk to Kurt some more. But I did what I was told and found myself drifting to sleep, thinking 'I knew something would happen today.'
