A/N - of course Jasper's dad is a bigoted ass and uses words I neither use nor condone...

Chapter 37

JPOV

I'm in the barracks but all I can hear and see are my memories.

'Daddy, please! I'm scared'

'No son of mine is a sissy! Get in that fucking pond!'

I see Mama crying. She turns her back and looks away.

Strong hands are on me and suddenly I'm splashing in water. Shocked I breath in water.

It's murky and I can see the legs of the dock but they seem so far away. I break the surface and see Daddy laughing.

I can't breath, I come to the surface again and see Mama reaching for me.

I black out.
