Just listen

(TWO YEARS LATER)

I rolled to the floor and got up to shut Angela's alarm clock off.

"Angela, class in an hour. Get your but up. Now, come on we can't be late, Doc (our professor) would kill us, he hates it when we interrupt his lecture, not that they make sense."

"Shut up and stop your rambling I'm coming." She lay completely still.

"Unbelievable." I muttered to myself. Then I did what I always did when she didn't get up. It was either cold cup of water or to pull off her blankets and roll her on the floor. "Don't make me wake you up."

"You wouldn't dare.'

"Wanna bet?"

"Okay, okay I'm up stop your grouchiness and have a pop-tart for crying out loud." She said sitting up. At least she was up that was the most I could ask for. I went into the bathroom. I was extremely sore I was trying to figure out how to cover the bruises today. I decided with a light jacket, it was nearing autumn.

Whenever anyone asked me where I got the bruises I would just look at it for a second then shrug my shoulders and say "No clue, door or chair probably." It was true; some of the bruises were from those things. But most of the time … they weren't.

It wasn't his fault. He didn't even realize what he was doing. And I didn't blame him one but. He was a really great guy, and I loved him. I just wasn't sure what was going on and I hated to leave him. He was so alone and confused. I tried breaking up with him, but I always changed my mind. He needed me, and he was innocent.

I scrambled around for my things and attempted to find my homework. As soon as we had gotten dressed and ready, we then headed off to our class. This time we barley made it trough the door and in our desks' before he started his lecture. Barley awake I scrawled note down as fast as I could follow. Every now and then he would pause to let us catch up. He was a good professor, but it was not a good class, it was physics in the morning, not desirable.


After class I met up with my darling Jake for lunch. Tyler had power hour classes during my Wednesday and Friday lunch meeting with Jake, so it was nice and quiet. After lunch we walked through campus just blowing time until our next classes which were in a few hours. Jake saw a change in me and pursued the subject. He was a good friend if he saw something wrong he never gave up. No matter how much you hate it he has to fix you before he lets you leave.

"What's wrong Bella?"

"It's nothing."

"Bella don't lie to me I know when something is wrong. What is it?"

"I can't tell you."

"You can't or you won't tell me?"

"A bit of both, now drop it."

"No, I'm not letting you leave until you tell me, I hate seeing you like this. You have been acting weird all month, what is it." I flinched as he grabbed my shoulder making me face him. His touch was gentle but meaningful and he was touching a new bruise.

He saw me flinch and raised an eyebrow. Dang he sees everything. "What was that about?" I shook my head and tuned away but he grabbed the back of my jacket and reeled me in. he took my arm, and gently pushed up the sleeve. His eye widened. I could tell from that look he knew everything. But he apparently still wanted to hear it from me.

"What happened Bella?"

"I must have fallen."

"Don't feed me that crap Bella I know better. Who did this?"

"No one" And I looked away.

"How long has Tyler been hurting you?" I saw the look in his big amber eyes and I couldn't lie. He knew already and I needed him to know.

"Only a few months, and he doesn't mean it. He tries not to, he fights himself the whole time, and afterwards he begs me to forgive him. He hates doing it, it just happens, its noting, now can we drop it?" I whispered leaning on his shoulder as we walked, hoping no one else would hear.

"I can't let him do this to you Bella, I just can't. You are too good, to have to go through this. I promise I won't let him hurt you."

"Jake…"

"I won't hurt him Bella, I'll just take him to the gym before you guys have your dates and alone time. Maybe he won't hurt you. I'll do everything to save you Bella, I mean it, if he ever hurts you again just come to me, I'll be right there for you." He promised me. It sounded like he was struggling with himself. He wanted to go hit Tyler, but Tyler was a friend of both of us and he knew it would upset me. He didn't want anything to hurt me. I'm glad atleast he felt that way.
