Kate

Walking out of Nicole’s hospital room, my heart is racing. I want Daniel to take me I have for a long time now, I don’t make it easy for him. Especially when I have a boyfriend I keep my distance from him because I know when it comes to Daniel I can never say no. It took every fiber in my being to say the words please don’t when all I really wanted was for him to kiss me senseless.

Seven Months Ago

“Katy?” Hearing Daniel call me by my nickname he gave me when I was a little girl made me smile. I lift my head and give him a smile.

“Welcome home. I hope you don’t mind me being here Nicole took me home with her.”

“Of course I don’t mind, you know I like it when you are here.” He slides in his bed with me. He wraps his arms around, me pulls me close to his body and I just relax into his body like I was made to be next to his.

“Are you okay, Katy?” He asked with a concerned tone mixed with anger.

“I am now.” He kisses the top of my head.

“Katy I know the answer but I want you to tell me. Did he hit you?” I sigh heavily why won’t he just let it go.

“Yes Daniel he did.”

“I’m going to fucking kill him.” He tries to get up and I got on top of him and push him back down.

“Damn it Daniel. You are not going to kill him stay away from him.”

“Why are you protecting him?”

“I’m not. I’m protecting you stupid, this is not the time to be killing people when ATF is still in town damn it. I can’t lose you, got it.” He grabs my face and pulls me close to his lips and I shudder. He kisses my cheek, that’s not where I want his lips, but I’m glad he did I still have a boyfriend even though I should’ve left his ass already.

“You will never lose me Katy, get some sleep.” I lay my head on his chest and for the first time in a while I feel safe.

Present Day

I took a cab home and I sigh when I got dropped off. I don’t want to be here anymore I don’t want him anymore. I should’ve ended things the first time he hit me, but I was stupid and let him talk me out of it. I walk in the house before I can react Trent punched me and I fell to the floor holding my face.

“Where the hell have you been?” That’s fucking it. I get up and punched him back.

“I’m done. You are a piece of shit don’t you ever put your fucking hands on me again or I swear it will be the last thing you do.” I storm upstairs then walk into the bathroom someone was in the shower I open it to see a naked woman.

“You got to be fucking kidding me.” I stormed out of the bathroom and his eyes widened in shock.

“You can have her because we are done.” I go into the room and start packing my stuff.

“Where are you going to go Kate? Nobody is going to love you more than me.” I laugh.

“You are that stupid aren’t you? First of all I do have somewhere to go and secondly nobody wants to be loved by you all you do is abuse me. There’s someone that will treat me better he’s been waiting awhile for me and he’s taking me.” Trents face turns red he brings up his hand to hit me again but I was prepared for it this time.

“Do it I dare you!” He takes a step back. I grab my bag and took off. I walk to the Jerome’s house since I know Nicole is at the hospital still. When I was about to knock on the door, Spencer opens the door and his face turns red.

“He’s a dead man.”

“Spencer let it go please. I left him and Nicole is still in the hospital can I stay until they get home?”

“Of course you can. Why can’t I kill him?”

“Because I said so.” He groans. I licked my lips and I winced I can taste the blood. I walk into the bathroom and look into the mirror. My lip was busted open like I thought it was and my face is swollen. Daniel is going to lose his shit. I clean the cut then walk to the kitchen. Spencer hands me an ice pack and I place it on my face. A door slams shut and I practically jumped out of my skin.

“He didn’t make it Spencer.”

“Who didn’t?” I ask.
