Haley's POV
I slowly started to get up. My heads pounding. Where am I? What happened again? I looked around me and saw broken glass from the cabinet, some random objects laying on the floor, and blood all infront of the front door. Oh Crap...
I tried to get up, but I just fell to the ground again. I tried to open my to speak but no sound would come out. This time I tried harder. I stood up, but just when I was about to walk I began to fall. I held onto the counter for help. I slowly walked over to the bathroom.
When I got to the bathroom I stopped infront of the mirror and looked down.
My hands were resting on the sink... I looked at my hands... they had glass in them, I touched one and it stung.
"okay Haley... just in 1 quick motion... 1..." I held onto one of them, "2..." I closed my eyes in pain. "3!" I pulled it out. My hand began turning numb. I did the same thing to the next hand.
"ah... It hurts!" I ran it until cold water. Then quickly took out the first aid kit. I ran it under water again before quickly bandaging my hands up.
I'm still wearing my sweater... I took off my sweater so that I was only wearing my tank top. then I finally looked up into the mirror.
"Oh god..." I felt tears coming out of my eyes.
"i have to get out of here." I put my sweater back on. Put my hood on, and quickly walked outside... or limped. It's a good thing I'm totally numb right now. Or i would be in serious pain. I got into the car. I couldn't go to Chase... or Carrie... or any of my close friends for that matter, they would tell everyone, and tell the police.
I sat in front of the wheel for a minute... then I knew where I had to go.
No ones POV
Brooke was at her house hanging out with Nathan, Peyton, and Lucas.
"Stop it! it's so weird!" Lucas said for the billionth time today.
"No! It's so funny!" Nathan said while crackin up.
"Brookie Brookie you wanna cookie?" Peyton sang again trying to get Brooke to eat a cookie.
Ever since Brooke saw Haley's bruise and scar, and her dad screaming from the house, she couldn't help but wonder if it was her father that gave her the scars. Ugh, she even said before that we weren't friends... She looked up and suddenly a chocolate chip cookie was stuffed into Brooke's mouth.
She started to smile widely and continued to eat it. "Hey B.Davis? What's wrong?" Nathan asked.
"Nothing..." She said quietly and continued to eat her cookie.
"Brooke! You've been like this the whole day! if you were gonna be like this, why did you invite us over?" Lucas asked getting annoyed by her attitude.
"Just mind your own business! while you're at it ask out Peyton for Fuckin God sakes!" Brooke yelled. Suddenly she realized what she said. She buried her head in her arm on the arm rest.
Peyton looked at Lucas wide eyed. She's liked him for a long time... but then she started dating Jake. Now she really liked him... but there was still feelings for Luke.
"Lu--" Brooke started but then the door bell started to ring. Over and over again.
They sat there in silence. all of them were scared to move.
The bell kept ringing though. Finally Brooke and Nathan got really pissed.
"I'm going to see who this fucking person is." Nate said walking to the door.
"Hold on!" Brooke yelled to the person that was outside. "nate! Let me open the door." She said running up behind him stopping him. "Fine."
She opened the door and yelled, "HEY YOU DON'T JUST--" She stopped yelling when she saw her former best friend, on her knees, with out her hood for once. Her hair was mostly dried blood, she had bandages on both her hands, but they were turning red, her face was bruised, and had dried blood on it. And something she has rarely ever seen... She was crying.
"HALEY!" She went and kneeled down to her quickly. Peyton and Lucas heard yelling and came over to them. And were shocked by what was infront of them. Brooke was hugging Haley, one of their enemies, who was crying and looked beaten up. Haley let go of Brooke so that she was looking at her face to face.
"I coudn't go to anyone else... I coudn't take it anymore... i couldn't go to my other friends because they would've told the police... You're the only person I could trust... I'm sorry I lied before... this is all my fault!" With that she clung onto her again.
"Sh..." Brooke said hugging her. "C'mon. Let's get you inside... Nate can you help me?"
"Ok--" "No... it's okay... I can't feel anything... no pain." She got up and Brooke put an arm around her and helped her into the house. Brooke helped her into the bathroom.
"Just stay here okay, I'll get ice and some things to help those wounds..." She whispered to her before leaving the room. She went downstairs to where everyone was.
"okay... I'm sorry Luke Nate can you guys leave? It's probably weird for her to be around guys right now..." She said looking at them with pleading eyes.
"okay." They both said. "But Brooke... Later... can I come over to check up on her? and you?" Nathan asked. "Sure you can." Brooke said, they all started to leave but then Brooke noticed Peyton was heading out the door. "Hey! Peyton no no no you stay here." She grabbed her arm and dragged Peyton back in and shut the door. "I need help. I couldn't have Nathan and Lucas help cause their guys. Can you help me get her better?" Brooke asked.
"Sure, anything for my best friend." Peyton said hitting Brooke on the back lightly. "Okay so I'm totally confused what do I do now?!" Brooke asked Peyton with pleading eyes for help.
"You're really dumb... Brooke" Peyton started laughing then walked to the bathroom where Haley was sitting quietly. she stopped crying now. "Haley Peyton's gonna help us okay?" Brooke said sitting down on the bathtub side that was next to where Haley was on the toilet. She slowly nodded her head. Peyton opened the cabinet mirror and took out a first aid kid, then grabbed a small hand wash towel.
"Okay let's take this--" Peyton unzippered Haley's sweater, "off." She slowly peeled it off of her.
"Haley... can you tell us what happened?" Brooke asked putting Haley's sweater on the edge of the bathtub next to her. She didn't say anything or do anything. She just stared down at her lap. "Okay... actually first... Brooke can you get a big T-shirt?" Peyton asked Brooke.
"Why? Shouldn't you help her with the injuries first?" Brooke asked. "No we need to wash her hair, and wipe off the blood and wash the bacteria away." Peyton answered. "Okay." Brooke left to get a T-shirt. she came back with the t-shirt and shorts then saw that Haley was shaking her head and Peyton kept trying to do something.
"What's going on?" Brooke asked. "She has to take off her clothes so we can wash off everything... but she won't do it! C'mon Haley." Peyton whined.
"Peyton no. She doesn't feel comfortoble like that." Brooke told Peyton. "Haley can you atleast change into these shorts? It'll be easier." Brooke said showing Haley the sophies. Haley nodded her head again. Brooke gave the shorts to her. Haley quickly took off her jeans, and put on her shorts. They looked at her legs. They were purple, and had a lot of scars.
"Okay, now get in the tub." She got up and sat into the tub. Peyton sat on the edge and Brooke sat in it behind haley. They took the disconnecting shower head and started to make warm water come out. "Lean your head back." Brooke said, and Haley did. Peyton poured the water onto it while Brooke washed it out. They didn't use shampoo though because it could hurt her other injuries a lot.
They instructed her until all the blood was washed off, and they could see the bruises and scars clearly. they gave Haley a towel to dry off and made sure she new where the t-shirt was. "Just tell us when you're done okay?" Peyton asked. again she nodded. they left the bathroom and sat down in the kitchen.
"I have a lot of questions that you could answer for me right now." Peyton asked Brooke as they sat down at the island.
"Okay, one, who did this to her?"
"I'm not that sure but... I think it's her father." Brooke said looking down. "What?! How?" She asked again.
"Before, I drove her home... I used to always just invite myself into the house you know? So when she got out of the car I also did, I asked if I could go in. And she said that... her familiy was going through a tough time. I asked if I could help and I said that her parents always thought of me as part of their family... and I found out that... her mom died... a few years ago. And then her dad lost his job. After she said that I suddenly heard this loud voice that sounded like a drunk version of her father yelling, "Where the hell is that bitch." When I heard that... I saw haley's eyes widen... fear and pain was FILLED in them... and she said that I couldn't come in... and she cursed at herself for being late and she told me to hurry up and go... then she ran into the house."
"Oh..."
"Second why won't she talk?" Peyton asked.
Then suddenly the bathroom door opened and Haley took a step out.
"I'm done... there I talked. Can you help me now?" Haley asked. They went towards her to start fixing her up.
So...we're just going to clean her up more, put medicine and bandages on her... then she'll probably fall asleep. Brooke and Peyton both thought.
But little did they know that this night has only started.
