Chapter 1
Tris POV
It's been three years since I have meet Peter. It has been three years since my parents dead in a car crash. It's been three years since I had contact with my brother Caleb. I meet Peter a week after my parents died. I was 21 alcoholic and Peter helped me get through it. At first he was nice, sweet, and caring. He was in college to be a lawyer and he helped me stop being an alcoholic. Then after a year I moved in with Peter and finished nursing school. Then everything changed and Peter became overprotective and angry. It was a month after I moved in when Peter first hit me. I was working a late shift at children's hospital and got home late. I always had dinner ready for Peter because he always got home after me. When I walked through the door Peter was pissed. He started yelling I was cheating on him and that I was ungrateful bitch.
Flashback
"Where have you been?" he yelled when I walked through the door.
"I'm sorry I had to stay late. One of my patients was having problems and I had to make sure he was going to be okay" I say telling Peter the truth. A 5 year old boy named Luke was diagnosed with Leukemia and just had his first day of Chemo.
"You are lying you ungrateful bitch" he screams and pushes me against the door.
"I'm not lying. Get off of me" I yell back
"You will learn to treat me with respect you slut" he says and slaps me across the face.
"Now make me dinner or it will be worst" he lets go of me and walks back to our room. When I hear the shower turn on I slide down the door and start to cry.
Flashback over
It has gotten worst over the years. For the first couple of months he would just hit me and yell and call me a bitch or a slut. Then he started beating me with a belt or sometimes anything he could get his hands on. Ever since this has start I moved whatever was left from my parent's death out of the bank and put it in my friend Lynn's bank account. Lynn found out what Peter was doing to me one day at work. One of the kids got sick and threw up all over my shirt and I had to change. I made sure no one was around because I was scared they would see my back but right when I pulled my shirt over my head I heard someone gasp. I told Lynn all that happen and she said that she'll help me. I have been saving a little out of my paycheck each week. Only 5 more paychecks and I can finally escape from Peter. I just pray that Peter won't be in a bad mood when he comes home from work. God never answers my prayers Peter is pissed and that's not good. I am still in pain from last night.
"Bitch where is my food?" he slurs when he walks through the door. He has been drinking this night is not going to end well, but when does it ever.
"On the table" I say trying to keep my actions in tack.
"What the fuck is this? I wanted steak not fucking chicken" he says throwing his knife at me.
"I'm sorry; they didn't have any steak at the store. I thought chicken would be good" I say looking down.
"You will be sorry. Take off your shirt" he says unbuckling his pants. I do as he says and turn around preparing for the belt. I lose track after 20 whips and start to feel myself start to black out. Stay awake Tris, you can't pass out and then bleed everywhere. When he is done beating me, he flips me on my back and I see he has a knife in his hand. He starts to cut me and when I think it's over he stabs the knife into my hip. The pain is unbearable and I let out a scream. He punches me in the face until I can barely see out of my right eye and I feel blood pour down my face.
"Clean yourself up you piece of shit" he says walking into the bedroom. I lay on the floor for what feels like forever until I hear snoring coming from the bedroom. I slow get up and grab a burn phone that I bought I case this ever happened and grabbed any cash I had and 300 dollars I kept hidden in my tampon box. I slowly walk to the door ignoring my screaming back and hip. When I make it to my car I call Lynn.
"Hello?" Lynn says
"Lynn, I need help. It was really bad this time and I don't think I can stay awake long enough to drive to the hospital" I say
"Tris, Oh my fucking god, what did he do?" her voice starts breaking. That's a first Lynn never cries.
"It's bad, can you stay on the phone with me to keep me awake and meet me at the hospital?" I say starting my car.
"Please be careful Tris and I'm on my way. Please promise me if you feel like your gonna pass out pull over and tell me where you are and I'll come get you." She says and I can hear her starting her car.
"I promise" I say and drive fast and I look and see that its 12am. The drive to the hospital feels like it was forever.
"Okay, Lynn I made it and I'm starting to get sleepy" I say pulling into a spot close to the front.
"Tris, I'm 5 minutes away. Please stay awake." She says in a rushed voice
"I'll try Lynn" I whisper. I can feel my eyes start to close and I don't think I can keep them open any longer. I soon as my close I hear Lynn's voice.
"Tris, Oh my god that sick fucking bastard" Lynn cries.
"Yeah" I faintly whisper. My body is screaming in pain and I see black dots.
"Tris, I'm gonna help you out I told Shauna I was here to help a friend and her husband and his friend are ER doctors. They should be here any second" She says grabbing my hand and helping me out the car.
"Lynn! Oh my god what happen to her?" I hear a woman's voice yell.
"Lynn, I don't feel good" I say and then throw up everywhere. But it's not normal throw up there blood everywhere.
"Tris, try to stay awake. Everything will be okay" Lynn cries and I feel another person hold my other side up.
"Zeke! Four! Hurry" I hear what I'm guessing is Shauna yelling. I see two figures running towards us.
"Lynn, what happen?" I hear one man say.
"Zeke now's not the time. Please just help her she just threw up blood everywhere and she is losing too much blood" Lynn cries.
"Okay, I'm gonna go grab a wheelchair. Keep her awake Four and check and see how bad everything is?" Zeke says and runs back inside.
"This may hurt" I hear a deep voice say I'm guessing it's Four's. Four is that a nickname I nod my head which I soon regret because my head feels like it's gonna explode.
"Lynn I'm gonna throw up again" I say and everyone moves out of the way but still keep me up. I throw up more blood and I can hear Four yelling to me to stay awake but I can't. Black dots cloud my vision and I hear Lynn screaming at me.
"sorry" is the last thing I say before everything goes black.
