Last Chapter

After Troy had paid the other half of the bill, he got up for them to leave but what he didn't know was that some blood, from one of his gashes on his back, had gone through his shirt. So when he turned around Gabriella took notice of this.

"OH MY GOD TROY YOU'RE BLEEDING!" She exclaimed with real concern.

Currently…

'Great I bled through' Troy thought.

"We have to get you to a bathroom and clean you off."

As Gabi dragged him to the bathroom Troy tried to protest and persuade her that he can do it herself but she would not listen. She started buttoning down his shirt kind of fast until she saw the first bruise and the started going more carefully and noticed more and more.

"Oh my god." She whispered. "Troy where are all theses from."

"Basketball?"

"Don't lie to me. Where are these from?"

"My dad." He said very softly barely understandable.

"YOUR DAD!" She screamed. "Look you have to tell somebody this can't continue. He's really going to hurt you one day."

"No he was just mad at me. Nothing too bad."

"Nothing now. But it can get worse. Trust me. It starts out as nothing and it'll slowly get worse"

"How do you know all this?"

"My brother." She said just as quiet as Troy said my dad.

'WHAT! Your brother abused you!"

"And raped me. "

"Oh my god. I'm so sorry."

"It's not your fault. Can you do something for me though?"

"Yeah sure anything."

"He's coming back. So if I call you and don't talk come over. The key is hidden in the mailbox. And I may need to come over to your house after school sometimes."

"No problem. Anything for you."
