He Thought He New Me

Chapter 3

By Aaliyah-Faith

A/N: To all those who have reviewed so far thanks a million, you guys are the best. Sorry this chapter is so short it's just I'm meant to be studying so I don't get a lot of time to write. Oh yeah if anyone knows some good Lucas/Haley fanfic's tell me because I love reading them. Same goes for any good websites. Anyway feedback is always encouraged same goes for any suggestions you've got. Thanks, love you guys!

I just can't handle trying to explain the torture and torment that is my life, at the moment it's too much. So, I do the only thing I can think of, I push past him and I run.............

"Haley don't," he shouts.

Before I can react his hand reaches out and grabs my arm. I yelp in pain and he retracts his hand as fast as lightening.

"I'm sorry" he says, "Did I hurt you"

"No Lucas I'm just crying my eyes out for the fun of it" I don't know where all this anger is coming from but the bitter words just flow out of my mouth before I have a chance to stop them.

First the beating and now all these emotions are hitting me; guilt pain, sadness. My body can't cope with the physical and emotional battering that I have just received so it just shuts down and I collapse into a bloody defeated heap on the floor.

I awake to find these bright blue eyes full of concern staring intently at me. My eyes start to well up again and I try to scramble away from him. I gasp at the pain that is coursing through my body because of the sudden movement.

"Haley" I hear him whispering gently. "It's me Lucas, Hales, I'm not going to hurt you, it's just me"

He slides closer to me and wraps his arms around my frail body. I tense up automatically waiting for the first blow, but when I realize none will come I start to relax.

I can hear him whispering soothingly "I got you now no one is going to hurt you anymore. I love you baby, and your safe I'm going to look after you"

For the first time in years I feel safe protected and loved. I allow myself to drift slowly off to a much needed sleep and I feel hope. Hope that everything will be okay.

"Lucas" I murmer "will you please stay with me I don't want to be alone"

He wraps his arms gently around me careful not to hurt me. His scent engulfs me and I feel completely safe and at peace.

Slowly sleep claims me.
