Hell Bent On Revenge
Hi everyone! I just want to take a minute to say thanks to my readers! I'm hoping this chapter will be easier to write than the last one. I felt so bad while I was writing it!
One more thing… I was re-reading my last chapter and I noticed a few mistakes. I'm so sorry! I'm not sure but I think my Microsoft word did that. I promise that I DO know how to spell and write. I was an excellent English student.
Last thing I promise… this story takes place after the whole Chase thing. Chase's dad left before his mother died. He took Amber and remarried. When their dad died, Amber's stepmother got fed up and left her with the covenant, which she found out about through Chase's and Amber's father. So, Amber does know that Chase is her brother, but they do not/ did not get along at all. That's probably REALLY CONFUSING… but that's my story and I'm sticking to it! ^^
Chapter 3: The Day After
When I woke up, I heard a beeping and low mumbling. When I opened my eyes, I saw my brothers sitting around my bed. When I tried to move, I felt pain. When I tried to speak, no words would come, only tears.
Caleb looked up from my hand that he was holding. He reached up and wiped the tears from my cheek. "Shh. It's over Baby Girl. Nothing like that is ever going to happen again," he promised. I shook my head. Hearing the door open, I looked up. It was Pogue's dad, Garrett.
"Boys," he said, waking the remaining three. He waited until we were all listening. "The doctor said Amber has minor bruising and will be extremely sore for the next few days, but can go home in the morning." My brothers looked up at me.
"Dad, she can't just go back to the dorms. Aaron is there and we don't know if the police have found Korey yet. What if…" Pogue started to argue, but was interrupted whenever Tyler's father Jacub came in.
"Everything has already been taken care of Pogue. Amber is going to be staying at your house for a few days. Nothing is going to happen there," Jacub Simms explained. I listened in silence for a few minutes, then drifted back to sleep.
I had terrible nightmares. Korey's face, a belt, hands… pain. Why couldn't I stop him? I had tried to use but my Powers wouldn't work. Was it because I was afraid? That couldn't be it. I had used before when I was scared, so why did they stop working now?
When I woke up the next morning, Reid and Tyler had their heads resting on their arms at the foot of my bed. Pogue's head was next to my arm, and Caleb was resting his head on his hand on the arm of his chair. The doctor came in and woke them.
"Alright Miss Pope, you are free to go. I have your discharge papers here and Mr. Parry has signed them. I'll have a nurse help you up."
"No. I'll be fine," I tried to convince everyone. The boys knew how I felt; I didn't want anyone to see me. Tyler looked at me.
"Hey Doc. I'll get my mom in here. She can help her," Tyler said and went to get his mother. A few minutes later Lynda Simms walked in.
"Alright boys, out. You can wait in the hall," Mrs. Simms said, shooing out the boys. She walked over to me and helped me out of bed. As I was changing into the clothes she had brought in, she noticed some of my scratches and bruises on my back. I winced as she touched them. "You poor thing. I'm so sorry," she said pulling me into a hug. She held me like that for a few minutes until I could cry no more. She let the boys back in when I was done dressing.
"Pogue, carry her out to Tyler's car. Tyler, drop the boys by Nicky's on the way to Pogue's house so Caleb can get his car and Pogue can get his bike," instructed Mrs. Simms. Pogue carried me out of the hospital and set me in the middle of the back seat of Tyler's car. He and Caleb climbed in next to me. We rode to Nicky's in silence, let the boys out, then continued on to Pogue's.
When we pulled into the long driveway of the Parry manor I started fidgeting. I didn't like being away from my dorm room for large amounts of time. A day or two that's okay, but a week, maybe more?
Pogue got me out of the Hummer and carried me to the guest bedroom. "Caleb is going to your dorm later to get you some clothes and some other things. Do you have anything particular you want him to bring," Pogue asked. I thought for a second, and grabbed a pen and some paper off of the table. "Yeah. Go tell him to give me a few minutes to make a list, okay," I told him. I had just finished writing when Caleb walked in.
"If you forget anything I'm going to pound you… actually, it might be better if I went, just to make sure we get everything," I said looking at the two boys in front of me. They looked back at me surprised.
"Amber, I don't think you should go. It might be…" Pogue started.
"Look, I'm not going to sit around and be pitied. I have had enough of that. I'm going to prove that I'm strong and I can take the worst and bounce back. Now are you coming or what Caleb," I said walking out the door. The boys looked at each other skeptically.
"Fine but we are ALL going," Caleb said as we reached the bottom of the stairs. Reid and Tyler hopped up from their chairs and walked out the front door with us. We climbed into the Hummer and headed off toward Spencer's.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
We pulled into the student parking lot and Reid turned down his death metal music. "Are you sure you are ready for this Amber," he asked.
"I'm as ready as I'll ever be," I answered smirking. Tyler parked and we all hopped out and went to the girl's section of the dorms. When we walked into the building, every eye that we passed looked our way. Heads turned away and whispers started. I rolled my eyes and hung my head. Tyler and Reid grabbed my hands, and I felt stronger.
I pulled out my key and walked into my dorm, yes, this was home. Reid got my swim bag and started stuffing things in it. I grabbed my overnight bag out of my closet, and pulled out my list.
Hairbrush? Check. Staightener? Check. Makeup? Check. Toothbrush? Check. Diary? Check. Pictures of me and the boys? I grabbed some of my favorites, Check. School books? Check. Covenant Necklace the boys gave me for my 13th birthday, the one like we all had? Check. Cell charger? Check.
"Okay, are we ready to go," I asked looking at the boys who already had my clothes packed. "Just waiting on you," Reid said. We walked out, and were almost to the end of the hall when…
"Well, look girls. If it isn't Miss Whore herself," Kira laughed to the girls behind her. They however didn't laugh. In fact, they didn't look amused at all. They were looking at me apologetically. "Just wait until I tell everyone how you tried to take on four guys at once. You'll look like such a slut." Kira laughed. I looked down again.
"Kira, you know that's not what happened! If I even hear that you tried to start that rumor, you will have ALL of us to deal with," Tyler said. The girls behind Kira walked over to us and shook their heads in agreement. Kira smirked and rolled her eyes. "Whatever," she said and stomped away.
"Wow, Baby Boy grew a pair," Reid joked. "Yeah, shut up Reid," Tyler said. I looked up at the girls in front of me and mouthed 'thank you'. They looked at me and nodded, then walked away. We walked out to Tyler's Hummer and threw my things in the back. When we turned around, Aaron was standing right behind us. Pogue pushed me behind him and the boys formed a wall between me and Aaron.
"Just so you know Assholes, the cops couldn't charge me with anything, so I'm free. I'll be seeing you at school Amber, he laughed then walked away. I sat there clinging to Pogue's jacket, trying to hide my horror from my brothers and the rest of the world. Pogue turned around and pulled me in his arms. We stood like that for a few minutes before Caleb spoke. "Don't worry about it Amber. You have all of your classes with all of us. We are always with you so Aaron wouldn't be stupid enough to try anything." We climbed in the car and headed back to the Parry estate. All along the way, the boys were making plans to deal with Aaron in school, and the scenery that I had seen hundreds of times over the years seemed like the most interesting thing in the world as I tuned them out and starred at it.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
More nightmares that night. Pain, screams. I really hoped this didn't turn into a nightly thing. I looked at the room around me. The boys had decided to stay the night at Pogue's. Where would I be without my guardian angels? I was glad they were there. I was proud to be a member of the Covenant. I was proud to be the Daughter of Ipswich. I was glad I had them in every class. School was going to be a living hell tomorrow.
+End Chapter 3+
Okay so this was slightly easier to write. I hope everyone else likes it. I wish I had big brothers like the Sons. The only big brother I ever had was like a stepbrother/ dad's girlfriend's son. He was 14 and I was about 7 and he used to beat me up every chance he got. His big sister even wrapped a belt around my neck. Oh well… that was then and this is now. Thank God!
Hope everyone liked it. I hope to have more chapters soon. I graduated high school so there's more time, and I quit my job because of this bitch I worked with. I didn't get paid enough to put up with her BS!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry! I'll leave you in peace! Have a great day!!!
