"Yeah ? ok " I roll over , I hope he didn't notice the disappointment in my gray eyes , I squeeze my eyes shut trying to hold back tears , I wait patiently for Nathan to leave so I'm taking by surprise when I feel body heat radiating next to me I roll over and I'm staring at Nathan's unruly black hair "Nathan ?" I whisper Nathan rolls over and wipes an tear from my face , I squeeze my eyes shut "I thought you were leaving " I whisper tears rolling down my face , Nathan rests his hand on my check "not now " his breath fans my face " I would never leave you when you need me " he speaks while pushing my curly hair behind my ear , I look into Nathan's brown eyes before I in twine my hands with his I don't know why , I take a deep breath "promise ?" I whisper , Nathan scoots so close that our lips are only an inch apart , "promise " Nathan says to my lips , in that moment I think he's going to kiss me , but Nathan just wraps his arm around me and pulls me so close I can feel his heart beating against my chest , it's different , his touch doesn't make me want to cry , I fall asleep in Nathan's arms thinking a million different things , but the thing that's eating at me is how a part of me wanted to tell Nathan why I tense when he touches me . I want to show him the bruise on my stomach. But most of all I want to tell him what my uncle did to me ....how could I be so vulnerable ?

I ran after him, my vision getting blurry as my tears began to flow. He kept banging on the back window of the car, shouting things I couldn’t get because it was too muffled. I could see his eyes wide with fear and worry, and it made me cry more. But, because I was not born for running, it didn’t take too long for me to get tired. Kai quickly noticed that, the same time I saw those tears that gleamed at the corner of his eyes. “Kai! Don’t leave me! Kai!” I yelled, sobbed as my legs refused to move faster. “KAI, PLEASE! COME BACK! KAI!” For some reason, I knew that that would be the last time I would see him, so I willed myself to continue running even if it would kill me. When I saw him shifting away from the window, I almost lost hope, thinking that he listened to his parents and would really stop befriending me. But then I saw him again. He moved so fast and swift that he managed to open a side window before his parents could stop him. “Please don’t cry, princess! I will come back and find you!” His parents tried again to remove him from the window, but he almost hugged the edges for dear life just so they couldn’t. “YOU HAVE TO PROMISE YOU WILL WAIT FOR ME, RILEY!” “I promise!” A sob escaped from the back of my throat, so I gulped the huge lump that formed in it, and shouted with all the energy left in me, “I WILL WAIT FOR YOU! KELLAN, I PROMISE!” With that, we both stopped. I stopped running; he stopped struggling. And, before his parents could completely close the car window, he threw something at me that almost made me laugh. A candy.
