AN; Enjoy and Review


Shanes POV

We heard the shriek and ran towards it. Michaels was the fastest and reached there first.

He was punching someone in the face.

I looked around and saw Claire she was naked. She only had her underwear on, everything else was in tatters beside her. She was bloody and sobbing. I ran over to her and pulled her in my arms.

"Claire, Claire! I'm here. It's me. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Claire stay awake we're going to get you to the hospital just stay awake."

I pulled of my jumper and put it on her. Eve was besides me pulling on Claire's skirt.
I felt like killing the person who did this to Claire, I wanted to beat them and leave them to die the most slowest painful death. My fists clenched up and my blood was pounding but I had to shake it off. I had to help Claire.

"Michael we need to get Claire to the hospital!" Eve yelled. He came over and saw Claire. He took in her bloody state and knelt down.

"Claire are you awake! You need to stay awake"

I stood up and went over to the kid who was probably Ian. I grabbed him by his hair then said. "I will KILL you" I then smashed his head against a gravestone and went over to Claire.

Michael scooped Claire up in his arms. I looked at him.

"It'll be faster," he said.

We all ran towards his car and he put her in the back. I got in with Claire. I cradled her against my body and she carried on sobbing and shaking.

"Hurry Michael!" I yelled and I felt the car speed up, he was probably breaking all the speed laws by now.

Claire was shaking so hard. She was mumbling something as well.

"What is it Claire?" I asked.

"I'm sorry" she managed to rasp out.

"No, shhh , I'm sorry, I'm so sorry" I pulled her closer to me.

"Sorry Michael and Eve" she rasped out.

"Claire shhh, I'm sorry I yelled at you, don't apologise. Please, just stay awake okay" Michael said.
"Claire, don't ever say sorry to me for that, I'm sorry okay. I love you CB" Eve managed to get out between her sobs.

I looked down at Claire on my lap and she was clutching her stomach, blood was seeping through my jumper I gave her. I leaned back, pulled my T-shirt of, and held it against her stomach.

She hissed in pain and gave out a little whimper.

"Sorry"

I held my top against her stomach.

The car pulled to a stop and Eve and Michael got out. Michael took Claire from my lap and lifted her up. We all ran to the hospital.

After a hole load of yelling and panicking Claire was put in a room and was being tended to by Dr Mills. I refused to leave her side so I was sat in the armchair besides her. Dr Mills had finished his work and Claire had stitches on her arm and stomach. Her face was badly bruised and she had lost a lot of blood. We'd be able to take her home when she wakes up.

It had been about 24 hours and she was still sleeping. I had gotten clean clothes because Michael and Eve had fetched them for me. They stayed on the couch after that and we all waited for Claire.

Claire POV

Claire's eyes slowly started to open. She looked around her and didn't understand where she was.

Memory suddenly flooded back and she gave out a little sob.

She saw Shane asleep in the armchair beside her bed, Claire realised she was in a hospital. She wanted to get up and wake Shane but her body wouldn't let her. She gave out another little sob.

Michael was besides her in a second, she hadn't realised that he and Eve had stayed as well.

"Claire! Oh your awake!" Michael said happily and he went to hug her.

The memory of Ian flooded back to her the second Michael made contact with her skin. Claire started to shriek and shake.

Shane and Eve woke up and came to stand besides Michael. Claire had stopped shaking and was sobbing.

"Claire what's wrong? Are you hurt?" Michael asked. "Did I hurt you?"

"N-no" Claire managed to get out. "It's j-just that " Claire didn't manage to finish her sentence. She didn't know how to say what she was feeling.

Shane went towards Claire to try hold her hand but she shied away.

"Please don't" she said.

"Oh um o-okay" he looked hurt.

"I just d-don't want to be touched" Claire said, her voice was raspy and broken.

"O-okay"

Michael and Eve went back to the couch to cuddle and Shane stayed in the arm chair next to Claire. They would be aloud to go home the next morning.

Shanes POV

It felt horrible to not be able to hold Claire, I wanted to wrap her in my arms and never let her out. I needed her in my arms so I knew she was safe. I needed to protect her and tell her I love her. Tell her I will make sure she never gets hurt ever again. But she didn't let me. She was afraid of everyone. And it was because of that FUCKING BASTARD IAN!

I wanted to kill him so badly! I hope he bleeds to death in that graveyard! I hope some vamp finds his body and drains him until there's nothing left and leaves his lifeless body to rot.

The door opening took my mind away from my thoughts.

Dr Mills entered and looked at the now awaken Claire.

"Hello Claire, I see you're awake. Well you can go home with your friends now. Any signs of dizziness nausea or pains please contact me immediately. But other than that your fine to go. I've got one of the nurses to discharge you so you can feel free to go anytime."

"Thank you Dr Mills" Claire said. She gave a weak smile.

Eve, Michael and I helped Claire up and got her into a wheelchair because her legs had become numb from not moving. We tried not to touch her much because every time we did she would let out a small whimper. It hurt like hell when I heard her whimper.

We wheeled Claire out and were about to leave when the Doctor came to us again.

"Shane can I speak to you for a second" he asked me.

I looked over at Claire, she was in good hands with Michael and Eve so I nodded and followed Dr Mills to a corner.

"I need you to get Claire to tell you what happened to her. It's one of the first steps of recovery. Also I need you to help Claire to tell the police. I'm sure she won't do it on her own. The only way they will prosecute Ian is if Claire tells them he attempted rape on her."

"I'll help her don't worry"

"Shane I really need you to be there for her, some people never tell the police. They suffer in silence, distance themselves from people and then there have been cases where they end there own life. I need you to support her. She refused to see the councillor I suggested to her and I can't force her to it. You have to be there, just make sure she's okay"

"I will I promise" I said and walked back to Claire.

I couldn't believe this, I didn't want Claire to end her life. I was going to help her, but she was already distancing herself from us. She wouldn't let us touch her. I need her to be alive, I love her and some day in the future I want her to be mine forever.

I needed to help Claire to tell the police. Ian needed to be sorted. And if he doesn't go to jail I'll just kill him off myself.

We ran to the car and when I offered to help Claire in but she said she could do it by herself.

Michael looked at me from the rear view mirror giving me a look that told me he had heard what Dr Mills told me.

We got home and Claire didn't say anything to anyone she just got out and went straight in the house. We all followed her but by the time we got in she was upstairs heading towards her room.

"I should go talk to her" I said.

Eve and Michael nodded.

I walked upstairs and towards Claire's room. She had locked her door.

"Claire, please open the door"

Silence. And then a sob.

"Please let me in."

A little sob comes again.

"Claire I need to talk to you about something"

The door unlocks and she stands there. She still in my jumper and her ripped skirt. Her face is streaked with tears.

"I get it Shane, its over between us. I know," she says and she's about to slam the door in my face but I walk into her room.

"What? What are you talking about?"

"You said you needed to talk about something, that's a classic break up line," she said, tears made there way down her cheeks.

"No, I need to talk to you about how you're feeling. I just want to be here for you. I don't want you to lock me out. I love you."

"You still want me? You love me?"

"'Course I do, silly."

"I love you too"

Claire went to take a shower after that she came out looking a lot better. But you could still see the pain in her eyes.
