Last time:
I crossed my room locking the door then pressing my ear up to the wall listening for the click of Rivens door. One I heard it I went to my bed and cried uncontrollably. Then there was a slight tapping at my window. I jerked up, it was Helia.
Panic was setting in because if my father found him in here I wasn't sure what he would do. And I surely didn't want to be responsible for someone else getting hurt.
I gritted my teeth as I unlocked the window and lifted it up hoping it wouldn't make a single sound. Fresh cold air hit me strait in the face. "Helia what are you doing here? You need to go like right now! What if you get caught?" I hissed. But the stupid boy just put his hand on my shoulder pushing me farther into my room before silently hopping into my room. My jaw dropped in shock as I look back at my bedroom door, panic-stricken. If my father caught him he would go insane; he didn't like Helia to come and play at our house, he always said it was too loud. Shaking my head in disbelief, I looked back at Helia.
What is he doing? Does he think this is Riven's room not mine? Maybe he just snuck in to the wrong window…
Helia and I didn't get on at all, so I had no idea what he was doing in here now. He seemed to make this ambition to tease the life out of me; he pulled my hair, triped me and the most annoying habit of all was that he called me Angel. He has called me it from the moment we met.
"Helia get out" I franticly whispered. "It's ok" he whispered softly. He wrapped his arms around me pulling me into his chest. Helia knew about my father and the abuse, Riven and I had to beg him not to tell.
I pulled back to look at him, "what are you doing here?" I asked so softly it was barely audible. He sighed pulling me down as he sat on the edge of my bed rocking me gently. "I saw you through the window. Just wanted to make sure you were alright." He whispered back hugging me tightly. I looked back out the window, his room was directly opposite of mine.
After a while the tears slowed but didn't stop. I looked at the clock, I have been crying for over an hour. "I'm ok, you need to go." I whispered trying to push against him. He shook his head firmly. "I'm not leaving until you stop crying" he stated. I soon gave in, I felt safe in his arms, pressing my whole body against his as I sobbed on his chest.
I woke up in the morning sill tightly wrapped in his arms. I gasped looking at the clock. 6:20 a.m. "Helia!" I whispered, shaking him. "Ahh, what mom?" he mumbled with his eyes shut.
My heart leaped to my throat. "Shhh!" I hissed quickly covering his mouth. I cannot believe we feel asleep this is so, so bad. His eyes snapped open, "oh no did I fall asleep?" he whispered wide eyed.
He got up a scampered to the window. "Thanks" I whispered. "No problem Angle" he replied. The thought of my father hurting Helia made my stomach hurt. We were extremely luck to not have been caught
