She Don't Tell Me To
"He pushed me and then grabbed my arm," Gwendalyn rolled up her left sleeve to reveal bruises that looked like they had come from fingers. "He is always saying mean things about you and momma and me, but I never do anything back. I just tell him that he's jealous."
Haruka couldn't believe what she was hearing. "I'm gonna…"
Michiru sat there for a moment before she said, "Gwen this isn't acceptable. You should have told us."
"Why? Momma wil…"
"Ruka will…" Michiru paused. "You know what Gwen?"
"No."
"I'll talk to her about this." Michiru said, but she knew that her fiancée was sitting outside the room.
"You would?" Gwendalyn asked.
"Yeah, I will." Michiru saw Haruka walk back downstairs. "Why don't you go and watch television and I tell her."
"Ok." Gwendalyn gave Michiru a hug and said, "Thanks Michiru."
"No problem."
They got up and walked downstairs. Michiru was glad to see that Haruka wasn't waiting for them. So she walked to the kitchen, but before she did she turned around to see Gwendalyn watching television.
When Michiru entered the kitchen, she said, "Haruka what are we going to do?"
Haruka turned around to face Michiru and said, "What am I going to do? "
"You're going to talk to her and then we're going to talk with the school."
"The bruises," Haruka paused, "are they bad?"
"The bruises are not black and blue. They are the normal bruise color."
"That's good, but I'm gonna call Makoto and see if she knows anything." Haruka said as she picked up the phone.
"No, Ruka, you can't do that. If she was telling Makoto this, don't you think that she would have told us? Especially you?"
"I know that, but Gwen…"
"Is fine. You heard what she said."
"Well I would have beaten the crap out of him." Haruka paused. "And I still might."
Michiru walked over and wrapped her arms around Haruka's waist. "You can't do that, Ruka."
"Why not?"
"Because…"
"Momma?"
Haruka looked down and saw her daughter. Michiru broke her hold on her fiancée so that Haruka could pick up Gwendalyn.
"What Gwen?" Haruka asked.
"I'm sorry for not telling you."
"It's ok."
Michiru watched them just talk before she kicked them out of the room so that she could make dinner. When dinner was done, they ate. Then the three of them sat on the couch watching television. Around 11:30 p.m., they decided that they should go to bed.
As Michiru was walking up the stairs to Gwendalyn's room, she was thinking about how she was extremely happy that Gwendalyn had told them was what wrong. She was also trying to figure out why Gwendalyn had told her instead of her mother. Maybe she was beginning to trust Michiru more then before.
"Hey Michiru?" Haruka asked.
"What?"
"What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing. Just that maybe Gwendalyn is beginning to trust me."
"She always trusted you."
"I know, but I just feel that she trusts me more now."
"That maybe true." Haruka paused. "Go tell her goodnight and then come to bed. We have a big day tomorrow."
"Your right." Michiru said as she walked into Gwendalyn's room.
It always amazed Michiru on how Gwendalyn kept her room so clean. She sat down on Gwendalyn's bed and looked at her. After about ten minutes, Michiru got up and kissed Gwendalyn's forehead. "Goodnight Gwen, I love you." Michiru said.
On her way out of the room, she ran right into Haruka. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Michiru said.
"Yes, there is. What is it?"
"Nothing is wrong." Michiru said as she walked to their room.
"Michi, what happened to Gwen isn't your fault."
"What?" Michiru turned around. "How is it not my fault! If I wasn't in this relationship, then Gwen wouldn't be getting teased…" Haruka wrapped her arms around Michiru as she started to cry. "Ruka, I…"
"No, Michi it isn't your fault."
"Why do you keep calling me Michi? You've never done that before."
"I'm sorry, but I like the nickname. Gwen came up with it a long time ago. I just didn't feel comfortable using it until now."
"Oh…"
"You said so yourself that kids are going to pick on her."
"I know, but I didn't think that it was this bad. I feel horrible."
"How do you think I feel?" Haruka paused as she picked Michiru up and laid her on their bed. "I feel just as bad as you do, which is why we are going to Gwen's school tomorrow."
"Ok?" Michiru nodded. "Good. Now go to sleep."
"Where are you going?"
"I'm gonna go and check on Gwen quick."
"Ok. Good night, Ruka."
"Good night, Michi."
Michiru watched her fiancée walk out of their room. So Michiru got up and changed into her pajamas and went back to bed. By the time Haruka came back, Michiru was asleep. Haruka was terrified about tomorrow, but knew that since she had Michiru everything would be fine. Within ten minutes, Haruka was fast asleep too.
A longer chapter, but I think that you guys deserve it. I actually really like this chapter, but that's just me. I think that I covered a lot of information. Thank you to everyone who reviewed. I actually didn't realize how short the last chapter was until everyone kept saying that it was short. Anywho… Let me know what you guys think! Bye!
