It seems fitting that after the most perfect day Jade starts to have nightmares again.
She had done wrong. She knew she had. What she didn't know, but it had to be something. Probably existing, maybe mom divorcing him, or the fact that she got son. Her father didn't like having a daughter, told her several times that women were useless. He was always mad at her for something. The first blow was to her face, her head snapped to the side. The next one was to her stomach, making her fall. He kicked the shit out of her, sometimes punching her, laughing. Then he pulled out a knife. Jade's eyes widened, he had threatened before, but never actually- her thoughts were cut off abrubtly when he ran the knife down her cheek. It hurt, bad. Then he smirked, a sickening sight, before grabbing her arm. He started to move the knife in her arm, she screamed, and tried to stuggle, but he kened her. "STOP MOVING." he yelled, and she did. Tears started to fall as he kept moving the knife, going for about 3 or 4 hours before stopping and leaving her, lying on the ground, sobbing. With a bloody, very ornate word in her arm.
That word was: 'useless.'
Jade wakes up with a small sob, with Derek Hale looking at her, concern showing in his eyes. Seeing him made her feel a little better, she wraps her arms around him, starting to cry - well sob - and shake. Darkness tints at the edge of her vision, she can barely breath. She knew this feeling well, it was the start of a panic attack. She didn't want to have one, not in front of Derek! But she couldn't control it.
Soon no breath was getting to her, she was shaking harder, she was clinging onto Derek. Derek was hushing and rocking her, and it only takes half an hour for her to calm down and snuggle into Derek's chest. She feels Derek tense, and wonders why. Did she do something? He wasn't tense when she was having her panic attack...or was he? She doesn't question anymore when Derek's hand is gingerly touching her arm, and he's growling low and deep in his chest. Her arm was bare. Her sleeve had rode up, and the word that haunts her dreams and thoughts was on display. And Derek had saw it.
