Chapter 10 - Chapter 9

Olivia's POV

While I was daydreaming I accidentally fell asleep and was woken up by my father dragging me down the stairs by my hair again, to make dinner for him and my sister.

Once I was done, I cleaned the kitchen while they ate and eventually made my way back up to my bedroom. I plop down at my desk and begun my homework while my stomach growled. I'm so hungry, I hope my father goes to sleep early so I can sneak a granola bar.

🌷🌷🌷

Just as I closed my homework book, my father opens my door. "You lazy little whore, while you were sleeping, your sister and I were starving!" He snarls at me. I wince at his voice and jump out of my chair. I start backing up into my closet while he continues to walk towards me, taking his belt off.

"Turn around!" He yells, making me flinch. I reluctantly turn around with tears streaming down my cheeks awaiting my cruel fate.

CRACK!! Goes the whip that hits my back that makes me fall to my knees. I accidentally let out a sob at the pain, instantly regretting it.

CRACK!! The whip hits my back with more force then the first, knowing it was because of the sob I let out. My father gets angry when I cry. It fuels his anger.

The whips continue and I nearly let out sobs through the whole thing, but I manage not to. Too scared of my father's punishment. Once he's done and left the room, I lay on the floor of my bedroom, too sore to move. I cry silently to myself wondering how I could be so stupid as to let myself fall asleep so early.

I'm so stupid, so very stupid. What is wrong with me?

🌷🌷🌷

When the morning came the pain subsided a little, enough for me to be able to go to school. God I hope no one attacks me at school. I guess I'll just have to stick to Rosalie's side.

As soon as I got to school I found Rosalie. She questioned me on why I was walking abit weird and why my back posture was abit off so I just told her I slept weird. I don't think she believes me but she let it go.

We are currently underneath the bleachers outside while I chow down on my sandwich, I haven't eaten since yesterday lunch and I'am so hungry. I look up at Rosalie and realise she's squinting her eyes at me. "Why are you looking at me like that?" I ask, not knowing that I just spoke out loud.

"Because I don't belie..... Hold on, di...did you, just talk?" She asks in disbelief. I nod, agreeing to her answer. I can't believe I talked to her either. Maybe I feel safe around her?

"Aahhh" she screams as she tackles me to the ground laughing. My back hits the ground and a blood curdling scream leave my mouth at the pain. I quickly roll onto my side as Rosalie lifts herself off me.

"Olivia, I'm so sorry I didn't mean to hurt you! What's wrong?" She exclaimed, then tries to look where I'm hurt on my back. I'm in to much pain to care whether or not she sees the cuts on my back from my father whipping me.

Rosalie lifts up the back of my shirt to check for any damage and gasps. Obviously from seeing the state of my back. "Who the fuck did this to you?" She yells, while I continue to cry in pain.

She takes her phone out of her pocket and sends someone a text. A few minutes later the school nurse comes running out of the school. "Omg, what happened?!" The nurse asks with a trembling voice.

"I don't know?! She's in too much pain to answer me!" Rosalie shouts at the nurse. The nurse nods and continues to look over my back.

"Come on, help me take her to my office." The nurse tells Rosalie. I cry in pain with every move I make but they eventually get me up on my feet with one of my arms over their shoulders.

Once we reach the nurses office they help me lay on my belly on the bed with my back facing up so the nurse can treat my wounds. Rosalie holds my hand while I scream as the nurse cleans my wounds and puts Betadine on to help with infection. It hurts so much that I ended up passing out.

🌷🌷🌷

As I start to wake from my slumber, my eyes flicker open and I realise I'am encompassed by white comfortable sheets. I'm still on my belly while I run my hand flat against the mattress, savouring how soft it is.

This is the softest bed I have ever slept in. It feels like I'm laying on clouds. My eyes feel heavy and I feel like I could sleep some more, so pull the plush duvet up to my nose and accidentally sniff at the sheets. Hold on. It smells like Rosalie.

"How you feelin?" Rosalie asks out of nowhere scaring the living shit out of me. I hiss as my back stings from me jerking from fright. I didn't realise she was in the room. Hold on where am I? My father is gonna kill me!

I don't wanna move my head to the other side to look at her. I'm scared it will hurt. It's like Rosalie read my mind and walked around to the side of the bed in eyeshot where I could see her. "I'm ti-tired, still." I whisper with a croaky voice.

"Okay." She nods. "Ring this bell if you need me." She says with a soft voice, while putting a bell down on the bedside dresser, close enough for me to reach.

Before she leaves, she bends down and kisses my forehead, making me smile. I've never had a forehead kiss before and I've also never felt this content before either. I think, Rosalie might be the one.

I'll worry about my father after my nap. I have a feeling I'm gonna need this nap from what's to come.
