I awoke a few hours later staring at a ceiling but it wasn't mine there was soft breathing coming from the floor I groaned trying to remember what happened as I went to sit up
"I wouldn't do that luv" I heard someone mutter as said person stood stepping over the sleeping from and sat on the bed I sighed seeing ville as he pushed me gently back down
"Now want to explain to me who the person was that did this Bam wouldn't tell me anything when we were bringing you here said it was for you to tell" he said laying down next to me as I finally realized I was in Bams room I laughed a little but winced as the nights events came back to me
"You remember Jason right?" I asked he nodded placing one arm under his head sensing a story
"Well about halfway through our second year together he became abusive at first it was just little things like a tap on my arm or something but it eventually turned very serious, he cheated on me with that girl Justine that was there tonight and even had her help him a few times, One night it got really bad he broke 5 ribs, fractured my right arm, busted my knee cap and broke my right ankle, I also wound up with a minor concussion, anyway that night as they left me to pass out I called Bam and he came and got me, we took all my stuff I had at the apartment and I've been living here sense. Though it's technically not like I wasn't before I got into the relationship anyway though." I said looking over at Ville for a minute he had fire in his eyes which could clearly be seen even in the dark I sighed
"And tonight?" he asked his fists clenched
"He cornered me outside and I was well beyond drunk. I screamed but he's got a good right hook and I was on the ground before I could blink, next thing I know he runs off cause Ryan was coming outside" I said staring straight at the ceiling
"That bastard is lucky I don't kill him." I jumped hearing Bams voice laughing a little Ville nodded
"I don't want you two in jail please" I replied back as the weight sifted on the end of the bed I looked over to see Bam
"How bad was I?" I asked knowing there was damage Bam sighed and I knew it had to be bad or at least that I would be under his supervision for a while
"You've got at least 2 broken ribs and some bruised, a bump on your head, and multiple bruises all over and your right ankles swollen again which its probably sprained" he finished I groaned 'Damn ankle' I thought but nodded
"What time is it?" I asked looking around for his clock bam laughed watching me
"You won't find the clock I got pissed at it and now it's in a million pieces" he said laughing hysterically I frowned Ville laughed deeply making the bed shake
"Its 4am luv" he finished looking at his watch I nodded
"I'm going to sleep then" I said going to stand bam shook his head and pushed me back
"I'm taking your room sweetheart" Ville replied I shrugged nodding knowing it was no use to fight both of them I would never win. Ville stood kissing me lightly on the forehead and head out the door as Bam took his spot I sighed and moved a little closer to him
"You ok Ava?" he asked I sighed shocked he used my real name but knew he was worried
"I'm ok, I'm just tired of always looking over my shoulder being afraid he's right there you know, I just want it all to be done with Bam I want to move on with my life not live in constant fear" I said looking up at him he nodded placing a arm around my shoulder I sighed contently
"I know Aves I want you to be happy, to be with someone who knows the real you, who's able to protect you from whatever it is your afraid of someone you feel safe with" he said I was shocked to say the least but smiled
"Thanks Bam Bam" I said yawning a bit he laughed as I drifted off to a sound sleep
~Bams POV~
I woke up to Ava and Ville talking on my bed as I heard Ava describe everything that bastard had done to her over the last 8 months I frowned and sat up not that they noticed "And tonight?" I heard Ville ask as I climbed in a squatting position
"He cornered me outside and I was well beyond drunk. I screamed but he's got a good right hook and I was on the ground before I could blink, next thing I know he runs off cause Ryan was coming outside" Ava said I could see her looking at the ceiling as I stood up
"That bastard is lucky I don't kill him." I said venom clear in my voice
"I don't want you two in jail please" she replied back as I sat on the edge of my king size bed when she asked how her injuries were I sighed knowing I had to tell her and beating myself up that I wasn't there to stop it
"You've got at least 2 broken ribs and some bruised, a bump on your head, and multiple bruises all over and your right ankles swollen again which its probably sprained" I said watching her face carefully for any sign of emotion. She looked around not a second later asking for the time laughing I told her about my anger issue with my alarm clock and Ville told her the time. I gently pushed her back down as she went to get up and go to her room shaking my head
"I'm taking your room sweetheart" Ville replied to her she shrugged and nodded I guess knowing it was no use to fight us both cause she would never win. As Ville stood and left I took his spot next to her and she curled into me more
"You ok Ava?" I asked extremely worried about her
"I'm ok, I'm just tired of always looking over my shoulder being afraid he's right there you know, I just want it all to be done with Bam I want to move on with my life not live in constant fear" This wasn't the answer I was expecting but I nodded moving my arm to around her shoulder
"I know Aves I want you to be happy, to be with someone who knows the real you, who's able to protect you from whatever it is your afraid of someone you feel safe with" I said knowing to her I just sounded like a concerned best friend but to me it meant more
"Thanks Bam Bam" she replied yawning I laughed and watched her drift off to sleep. I laid there just playing with her hair for a while thinking when it dawned on me why I felt so protective of her, why I was beating myself up for not being there when she needed me, why I wanted to kill that bastard ex of hers. Sighing I looked down at her, my partner in crime since diapers she looked so peaceful, moving a stray hair out of her face I whispered
"I want you to be with me Ava Crystal Barron" Sighing I laid back down knowing it would probably never happen but coming to terms that I love my best friend.
