Chapter 7
He didn't say anything at first. She pushed him back with full force and started to cry.
"Tell me Johnny, why? Is it because you saw the beatings and the bruises I went through and decided to get back at him. Did my brother tell you to do it? Why did you do it?" She said stepping forward to push him again. He grabbed her by the wrists and held them by her side.
"Stop Sara," he said pulling her into a hug. She cried into his shoulder.
"Let's sit down," he said leading her to the couch. He sat down beside her. He held her hand in his.
"Do you remember that night, Sara? I know it's very hard for you to do that, but it'll help," he said rubbing his thumb across her palm. He kept his eyes at their hands together.
Flashback
"Sara, what did you do?" Jonathan asked Sara as he saw her swollen face.
"I ran into a door. It's nothing," she said trying to put her hand in front of the bruise. He pulled her hand down.
"Sara, first thing is that I know you aren't a colts. You don't run into doors. Who did this?" He said trying not to show his angry at who would do this to his girlfriend by covering it up with a joke.
"Jonathan, leave it," she said using his Christian name. She walked away from him.
"No. I won't," he said getting in front of her. She knew he wouldn't back down. He would kill for her. He was enraged at the person that hurt her. She couldn't tell him it was her father that gave her the bruises.
"It's your father, isn't it? He did this?" He questioned her.
She looked away from him and started to tear up. He knew everything about her. They were meant to be together. He even told her that he would marry her one-day.
He pulled her into his arms and hugged her close. He kissed the top of her head.
"Everything will be ok," he said soothing her.
"No it won't," she said crying.
"Sara, no one will ever hurt you while I'm around." She knew after that day that he was telling her the truth that he would go over the edge for her.
He told her to stay at his house while he sorted things out. He was going to talk with her father. He left right away after he knew she was safe in his home.
He had been gone to long. She wasn't sure but she heard yelling from the distance. She heard shouts and then sirens. She ran as fast as she could to her home. She saw the police cars and ambulances coming in the distance. She ran inside to the kitchen. She stood shocked.
Jonathan was standing over her father's bloody dead body with a knife in his hand dripping blood. When he saw her he turned paler than he was before. She stood shocked. He didn't say anything, but kept his eyes looking at hers. His eyes were glistening from the tears that were falling.
The sirens could be heard from outside. They were right outside now. The police were coming up the stairs every second was becoming an hour when they were looking into each other's eyes. The police arrested him then and there.
"Stop, you can't do this," Sara said screaming with tears falling down her eyes. She ran to Jonathan. Her mother came from the house and held her back. She didn't let her daughter go. Sara couldn't stop crying.
End of Flashback
She nodded her head from the memory.
"I saw you with the knife. You killed him," she said starting to hit his chest. He kept holding her. He wouldn't let go. When her anger was finally gone and she was too tired to hit him, he continued speaking.
"Yes you did see me with the knife, but I didn't kill him," he said gently.
She started to cry again from confusion.
The door to the house was twisting to right and then opened.
