Disclaimer:/ I do not own, Twilight Characters. Though the Emmett in this chapter makes me wish I did.
So its been a while. (Sorry!) I know I know.
But this chapter I have a surprise for one of my reviewers.
Thank you for reviewing jessa76, and rooske01.
So let's get on with the chapter shall we.
Apov
I awoke this morning and I could feel the difference. I wasn't in a saddened mood. I was actually looking forward to seeing a friend.
But then the doubt crept in. What if it was all a facade? What if he was just playing me like a fiddle?
But he, Emmett, he seems different. Almost as if he didn't see the wrong in me. That despite the rumors he still wants to be my friend. Then there came the doubt.
What if around other people he's different from the way he was last night. What if he was going to be just like Ben.
I found myself wanting to run away from the uncertainties. Away from Emmett. I didn't really know him, he could be like everyone else, trying to gain information. But I liked who Emmett was last night. I preferred to keep my illusion of him. To not find out if I'm right or if I'm wrong.
So I had made up my mind I wouldn't approach Emmett or try to make friends with him or his family.
So I avoided them with all my might.
Just as I reached the lunch room I felt a soft yet sure grip on my arm as someone pulled me outside and up to the woods behind the school. It was Emmett.
"Why are you avoiding me?" He asks me.
"Why are you even concerned with me?" I ask and I truly wanted to know why. I guess my illusion was about to be made or broke as of now.
"Why would I not?" It wasn't a question, but a statement as if he was simply just telling me. Yet I felt the need to answer.
"Because I'm damaged, broken, the girl the whole town turns a blind eye to, the girl with no friends to talk to, I'm a liar as they say, and a whore or a slut, in the eyes of everyone including my parents. I'm no one." I flinched as I recalled everything every reason why he shouldn't care about me. It hurt that it was all true.
"Do you honestly think I care what ludicrous things people say or think about you? I told you last night I'm not that type of person. And I understand that your mistreated and you have a lot going on, but your not alone.
" Its just like when people look at me. They see this perfect snotty rich kid, who gets all the girls, and who probably more than likely, plays a defensive position in football. People look at me and that's who they expect me to be. But I'm not.
"I was abused as a child, I have a lot of physical scars as well as mental. From my mother who didn't give a rats ass, and died of overdose. I was given to my father when I was five. I was also beat by my father and his girl had a sick curiosity for young males. My childhood was hell. It didn't stop until I learned to fight back and take control." "I was fifteen before I was finally let out of my families clutches. Going from family member to family member with no change, until then. I was lucky that Carlisle and Esme even thought about adopting a child my age. But I thank god that they did."
"I'm not who people think I am. I'm not a football player, I can't even play football. But I can play doctor like a pro. Comes easy when in a situation like mine had been. I don't get the girls, I've never even willingly touched a being that way. That being said, I don't give a fuck about the lies that these people spread, because I know how that can be. I just want to help you if the help is needed. I didn't get the help I needed until it was to late, and it didn't end very well. I want to be your friend and I want to help you out of your situation. But first you have to admit that you need my help in the first place."
I couldn't stop the tears as they came. He was right and any doubt was severed as I looked up to see Emmett's expression, and for him I broke even more. I couldn't understand how we could be hurt as bad as we are, and by family no less.
My eyes traveled to the surprisingly sunny sky, and a cloud shaped into a star, and I made a wish to it, not even knowing why or for what as I said the words I knew I needed to say.
"I do Emmett. I need your help." I admitted
"We'll help each other."
Empov (in regards to a review by jessa76 for chapter two)
We were in the locker room before lunch and I found myself thinking about Angela. I knew the signs and she wasn't lying. She shouldn't have to live the life she's living. No one should. I lived a similar life, and that life on any level is every kind of wrong. My mind flitted to the way she'd been avoiding me all day.
"Dude just lay off." I hear Jasper say a row of lockers away from me. Him sounding unlike his laid back self meant he was pissed, and Jasper was hardly ever pissed. I went to find him to check out the scene.
"What's the problem?" I inquire as I see Jas chest to chest with some jock.
"She's a fucking attention addict, she thrives on it the lying whore.
"Jasper man shit!" I yelled as his fist collided with the dude's face several times.
I pulled Jas back as quickly as I could. Breathing hard he says to me. "Go ahead and ask him who he's talking about." He panted out.
"Fucking Angela Webfeet. Keep sticking for her she's going to fuck your entire family, and then she's gonna go back to being a needy attention loving whore."
I couldn't stop my reaction to his words. She didn't deserve to be talked about behind her back like this. I snapped I punched him once and I couldn't stop, I punched him and kicked him, I blacked out, it was as if I wasn't in control of my body, my only thoughts were of Angela.
Once Emmett was finally dragged off of Ben, (which took four guys to do so.). The locker room was eerily quiet. Everyone knew their locker talks of Bella were over. Ben to them was a warning as he lay there unconscious and his face bleeding. They left him there a minute after Emmett and Jasper had left.
Ben was found as the freshmen class arrived next shift. He knew not to say anything about what had happened. He learned a valuable lesson about keeping his mouth shut, seeing as his lips were swollen beyond capability of talking. And Emmett went to go find Angela. He knew with the things people were spouting she would need someone to help her and believe in her.
So I hope you enjoyed this Chapter. Sometimes we all just need someone to understand so I figured if Em's gonna be her savior, then he should understand her situation.
Hope you like Ems POV sorry it was so short.
Please please please review.
Love the Amazing XoiCullen💋
