Chapter 10:

Gabby's p.o.v:

"Troy," I said as more of a question then statement.

Slowly I removed his shirt, and noticed a few small buries and cuts then my eyes drifted to his abs where I found a single large bruise that looked as though it could kill. Next I caught my self laying on Troy in his bed with my head on his chest. I started to kiss each and every bruise making a trail, then I kissed his skin till I made my way to the large buries where I kissed all around.

Breathing heavily, I looked up into his blue eyes and he took my face in his hand and placed a fiery kiss on my lips. At that moment I felt as though I couldn't go on any longer the person that I loved most was being abused in the same way I had , and it hurt me so badly inside I could cry which I had been doing too much of lately.

"Troy , we have to tell somebody," I cried.

'No baby we can't," he said with blue watery eyes." It's not usally this bad I mean this is the first time he's hurt me this much , besides I can handle it." He went on.

"Is it, because you have been missing practice, because of me," I questioned.

"No baby don't ever want you to think any of this is your fault ever cause it's not,"

His words were soothing, but I knew better what he was saying was'nt true.

"Promise that you won't miss anymore practices," I stated.

"I promise."

Then he looked into my eyes and I could see the hurt in thee hurt in them, I had no idea what to do, and usually he was the one caring for me. He always helps me no I need to help him.

"I love you, "I said truthfully.

"I love you too, more than you will ever know," he replied.

We laid on his bed and just cuddled, I wanted to be close to him always. Suddenly I heard my cell phone ring, groaning I went to go pick it up.

"Hi this is Sharrell we have information on your dog cookie , could you come to the animal hospital ASAP."

"Yeah I'll be right there," I replied with nervousness in my voice I had a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach.
