Continuing...
Kevin- I'm here to talk to you.
Courtney- What the hell does that mean? You can't be here! You're not even allowed to be this close to me!
Kevin- (his voice is raised) Oh, would you relax already! (walks inside while Courtney is baking up) I can't believe you did this to me Courtney!
Courtney- I had to Kevin! You keep abusing me and I'm freakin sick of it! And you're gonna go back to the slammer, where you belong!
Courtney picks up the phone.
Kevin- Not if I get to you first.
Kevin knocks the phone out of Courtney's hand and starts attacking her. Courtney is freaking out and crying.
Courtney- Damn Kevin...w-would you stop it already!
He has already thrown about five punches at her and the last time, she fell hard on the floor. But, she quickly scrambled up, her body aching, and was trying to run up the stairs. Kevin though, was pulling on her legs while she was trying to run up the stairs.
Courtney- Stop it Kevin! Stop...please!
Finally, with all her strength, Courtney made it up the stairs and got into her room. Once she locked the door behind her, she slid down and started to cry on the floor. After a few minutes passed, Kevin was still pounding on the door and she thought it was going to fall down, she knew who to call and get help: Craig. She dialed his number quickly.
Craig- Hello?
Courtney- Oh...Craig! I'm so glad I caught you! Please...please, help me! K-Kevin's back and he's doing it...again!
Craig- Oh my god. Courtney, I'm going to call the police.
Courtney- Oh please don't! I-I don't want them so involved again.
Craig- Courtney, I have to call them!
Courtney- No! P-Please don't! Get J-Joey...or something, please hurry!
Courtney is crying frantically.
Craig- Alright! I will!
Craig hung up the phone, got Joey to come, and left the house in about 2 minutes. He had to save her. When Sean saw the two of the and asked where they were headed, he wanted to come help as well.
Back at her house, Courtney was stuck listening to Kevin pounding on her door and the door was shaking. She then heard the front door opening and people running up the stairs. She was so exhausted and her body was overwhelmed with pain. And with that, she fell asleep.
It felt like hours that she was asleep but it was only a few minutes. Someone was shaking her.
Joey- Courtney? Are you alright sweetheart?
Courtney- (groggy) Yeah. I'm alright...I think.
Courtney looked around and saw Joey, Manny, Emma, Sean, and Craig sitting around her. There were also two police officers outside of her room.
Manny- Are you sure Court?
Emma- Yeah, you don't look so good.
Courtney then felt a pain in her arm.
Courtney- Ow! My arm really hurts. (tssss sound)
Joey- Craig and Sean, help her up!
Craig and Sean put their arms around a now very bruised Courtney and got her to stand up.
Craig- Are you sure you're okay?
Courtney- No, not really. Ooowww!!
Joey- Alright, we're taking her to the hospital. I'm going to go start the car and you four help her downstairs alright?
Manny, Emma, Sean, and Craig all nodded their heads in response.
Joey- Good. (ran downstairs)
The officers then approached the bunch.
Officer 1- Miss Miller?
Courtney- Yeah?
Officer 2- Once you get examined we're going to have to speak with you and your parents.
Courtney- Oh. Okay.
The four then carried her downstairs and got Courtney into Joey's car. Once at the hospital, as luck would have it, her mom, Dr. Miller, examined her.
Mom- I can't believe this Courtney! He came after you after we left?
Courtney- M-Mom...I didn't know he was coming, promise! When I went to answer the door, there he was and he started to back me into the house and attacked me. (pause) Ooowww!
Mom- Oh honey. I'm so sorry this had to happen again. (pause) Well, it looks like your arm isn't broken but just sprained. You'll just have to wear this splint for a few weeks.
Courtney- I guess that isn't so bad.
Mom- Yeah, but...looks like you're going to get some more bruises.
Courtney looked over her body and found some more black and blue bruises starting to form. She sighed.
A few minutes later, the officers came in.
Officer 1- Are you both Courtney's parents?
Mom and Dad- Yes.
Officer 2- Well we have a few questions for Courtney about the incident. (pause) Courtney, exactly what happened tonight.
Courtney- Well, we had just gotten home from dinner when my mom and dad got called into work for a while. After they had left, I decided to watch some TV. Soon, there was a knock at the door and it was...Kevin. He started to back me into the house and I told him he was going back to the slammer when I picked up the phone. He knocked it away from me and started to attack me. After I fell to the floor one time, I managed to get up to my room. Then I called Craig and told him to get help. I must have fallen asleep since before I knew it, Craig and a few others were sitting around me.
Officer 1- Thank you Courtney. (pause) Well, I can tell you that Kevin will be returned to Vancouver where he'll be put on probation. His parents have not been home the whole time he has been here so he will also be in police custody. He will NOT be able to reach you again.
Officer 2- We can promise you that.
Dad- Thank you both very much.
Officer 1- No problem. Just doing our jobs. (I know, that was kinda cheesy)
Then, the two officers left.
Courtney- Well, I'm glad that's over with.
Mom- I sure hope so sweetie. I sure hope so. (pause) Courtney, listen to me. (pause) Don't ever get involved with a guy like him again. Do you understand? The second you notice a guy trying to hurt you like Kevin did, you tell us right away. I do not want a repeat of all this horrible trouble we went through.
Courtney straightens up and takes what her mom said seriously.
Courtney- Mom...dad...I promise. Trust me, I REALLY do not want to get hurt again. I know see that this is serious stuff.
Dad- Good. Well, we better get back to work so we'll see you in the morning.
Mom- Bye sweetie. (kisses her forehead)
Courtney- Bye.
A few moments later, Manny, Craig, Sean, and Emma walk in.
All- Hey.
Courtney- Hi guys.
Emma- How are you doing?
Courtney- I've been better. (pause) Listen, guys...can we just keep this to ourselves? I-I really don't want this being a big thing around school.
Manny- You got it. It'll be our secret.
Courtney- (chuckles) Thanks guys.
Sean- Hey, no problem.
Craig is staring into her eyes.
Craig- Yeah, no problem.
Sean sees this and distracts the girls to get them out of the room.
Sean- Oh...come on girls, let's go see...uh...about stuff.
Manny- (looks confused) Uh...okay?
Emma catches on a gives her a look.
Manny- Oh....yeah, let's go see about...stuff.
Courtney- Okay.....bye guys.
Manny, Sean, and Emma are smirking at her.
All- Bye!
Courtney- I wonder what that was all about.
Craig- Same here.
Awkward silence.
Craig- So...um...I'm glad you called, you know after being in danger and all.
Courtney- (looks at him funny) Yeah...
Pause.
Craig- Well, I'm just glad he didn't hurt you too badly.
Courtney- Yeah, me too.
Craig then decides to forgive Courtney because after he helped her, he realized she was THE ONE for him.
Craig- Listen, Courtney. I'm sorry for being a jerk. We weren't technically a couple and I realized that you were just trying to figure out your true feelings. Can you forgive me?
Courtney- Hmm. I'll have to think about it. (pause) Yes!
Craig laughs.
Craig- Great. And there's one thing I have to ask you.
(Attention! Fluff-iness ahead!)
Courtney- (chuckles) What's that?
Craig- Will you be my girlfriend, Courtney?
Courtney- Of course I will, Craig. (pause) You're probably the best solution to helping me get over my...uh...incident.
Craig- I hope I'm THAT guy.
They both smile at each other.
Craig- Well, there's only one way to seal the deal.
Courtney- Oh yeah? What's that?
Craig smiles, leans over her hospital bed, and kisses her. Very romantic. When they pull away, all Courtney can do is smile.
Courtney- Well, I know that you're not going to turn into an abusive freak of a boyfriend.
Craig straightens up and gets serious.
Craig- I won't EVER do that. Promise.
Courtney- Thanks Craig. I always knew you were the one.
He smiles, leans in, and kisses her again. Aww!!!
Okay well, please continue reading cause there's like 2 or 3 more chapters! Good stuff will be included! And please take into account what Courtney's mom said. I really don't want anybody reading this to be in the same situation and get seriously hurt!!
Kevin- I'm here to talk to you.
Courtney- What the hell does that mean? You can't be here! You're not even allowed to be this close to me!
