Title: Help me

CHAPTER 4

Jeff went downstairs and called his dad to come get me. About fifteen minutes later, his dad showed up. They got me and went to Jeff's house. His dad put a splint on my ankle and tried to clean up the cuts, which had started bleeding again. Jeff kept pacing around the room and he was driving me crazy.

Finally I said " Jeff could you stop pacing? You're driving me crazy." "Sorry," he replied "I just can't believe that he hurt you this bad." He sat down next to me and put his arm around me. Then his dad said, "I think you should go to the hospital. A couple of these cuts are pretty deep."

Jeff agreed with him and they took me to the hospital. When the nurse asked what had happened we told her that I fell off my bike. I guess she believed that. Jeff sat with me and held my hand while I got my stitches. I had a lot of stitches, too.

We went back to Jeff's house and his dad said I should stay there for a while. I stayed there for a couple of days and then I went back home. Everything was fine for about a month. Then he started hitting me and he didn't stop. I waited until he left then I picked up the phone and called Jeff.

Jeff answered the phone and I said "Jeff help," before I passed out. Jeff kept yelling my name into the phone. Then he ran outside and told the guys what had happened. They got to my house and tried to open the door but it was locked. Then they decided to go through my window.

They got in and they split up to try and find me. Matt found me and he yelled for the guys that he had found me. Shannon went to go get some paper towels and when he got in the kitchen the whole floor was full of blood. Matt and Jeff tried to stop the bleeding while Shannon called an ambulance. Jeff rode in the ambulance while the rest of the guys called Jeff's dad and told him that they were on their way to the hospital.

At the hospital they said that I had broken my arm, my leg and some ribs. I also had a concussion and some cuts. I was in the hospital for a week. Matt, Jeff, and Shannon would come every day after school. Matt and Jeff's dad would be there everyday trying to find out when I could leave.

After a week in the hospital, they let me go with Matt and Jeff's dad. When I got to their house, I was scared. I didn't let anybody touch me not even Jeff. Jeff was upset that I wasn't letting him come to close but he decided not to push it. He knew that I was really scared so he just kept trying and he didn't take it to far. After about a week I finally let Jeff hold my hand again.

Jeff didn't do anything about it though. He didn't push how far I would go. He knew that I was scared and he wasn't going to make me scared of him so he just let me decide when I was ready to move on a little further.
