It's really soon, but here's the next chapter
"Tell me Alex…Please" Jay said. Alex looked into his blue eyes, and hers started to tear
"No…" Alex said. She turned away as a tear fell
"Alex, tell me…please" Jay said. Alex went up to him and hugged him
"My father's a drunk…He hits me…I can't stop him Jay. And neither can you" Alex said
"Lexy…We have to get you out…Soon…Please" Jay said. He held her, and he wasn't going to let go
"Jay…The way it seems, I don't know how soon I can get out" Alex said. She wasn't about to lose her only place to stay because of abuse
Jay seemed to be thinking the same thing "You can stay here Lexy…No one would mind, really" Jay said
"How are we going to get me out of my house…My mother needs me"
"We need to get her out too" Jay said
"I'm home" Alex said. Jay was there with her, and she quietly made her way to her room. She shut her door, and got a bag out and started packing
Jay sat on her bed "Make sure you take everything"
"I will" Alex said
There was a knock on the door. Jay answered it, and was pushed aside by a man
"What dad" Alex said
"You are not going…I thought you loved me" he said
"I don't, and I am not going to stay here and get hurt" Alex said. She walked out of her apartment, and they went to Jay's house
"Are you comfortable enough" Jay asked Alex
They came back to Jay's house, where they put Alex into a spare bedroom. It was a small room, but Alex didn't care
"Thanks for this. I can't believe he'd say something like that" Alex said. She sat on her bed
"Don't you worry. Good night" Jay said, and closed her door
Alex woke up, and looked at the clock. 1:34 it read. She couldn't sleep so she went down the hallway and knocked on the door of Jay's room
"W-who is it" Jay said. Alex came in and sat on his bed
"What are you doing here" Jay said. He ran his fingers through her hair
"I couldn't sleep" Alex said
Jay pulled her to him "Oh…I see"
Alex lied down next to him "Can I stay here"
"Sure" he said
