Chapter 8: The Start of a Lie

Review from chapter 7:

Angels POV

Then he pushed me out from underneath the deck and I was on my back home. Home. I had made it through this. I could fight it. At least I could keep coming back everyday until I came up with someway to stop him. Now I just have to find out what I'm going to tell Jesse and my parents…

Angels POV (On her way back home still thinking)

Maybe I could tell then that I ran into a mailbox. But then how does that explain all then bruises all over my body. I could also tell then that a dog attacked me. But then they'll want to know whose dog it was and then they'll want it doggy arrested or something. I guess I could tell them I tripped and fell down the really big hill in our neighborhood. Then at the end of the hill I ran into a mailbox. Yes, that's what I'll tell them. It could happen, couldn't it?

Jesse POV

Oh my gosh! Finally I see Angel. But what happened to her! "Mr. and Mrs. Davis I see Angel. Come quick! It looks like she's hurt!" I ran outside as fast as my legs could carry me to help my baby. (Yes, that's his nickname for her and she loves that nickname)

"Angel" I cried when I get close enough. I could see the blood dripping down her face and bruises starting to appear along her arms, legs, and on her face. What has happened to my Angel? Who could have done this to her. "What happened Angel? Who did this to you? I said the last part more frantically and protectively. "I'm fine. No body did this to me. Let's wait until we get into the house, that way I can explain it to both you and my parents at the same time." She told me in a soothing voice, trying to calm me down. "Ok, we'll go inside and then you can tell us what happened."

Angels POV

So Jesse and I walked inside, with his arm wrapped around me protectively. I know it! He doesn't believe that nobody hurt me. Now he's going to be in danger. I have to do something. I have to make him believe that no one hurt me. I don't know what I would do if I lost him. As we got inside I saw my parents' faces turn from relief to fear and shock. "Don't worry Mom and Dad. Nobody hurt me." I turned and faced each of them one at a time to make sure they were listening and then continued with my story. "I was on my walk and I fell down the big hill. I then started falling and rolling down the hill, hence the blood and scratches. Then when I got to the bottom of the hill, I ran into a mailbox, hence the bruises, more scratches, and more blood." My parents seemed to accept my 'story', but I could tell that Jesse wasn't sure if I was telling the truth. (A/N: Someone who is truly in love with you can always tell what you are feeling and when you are telling the truth. At least that's what I think.) "Well Angel, lets go and get you cleaned up. Do you still want to watch a movie after that?" At least he's not going to ask me why I'm not telling the truth or what really happened. But I feel so bad for lying to him. But it's for his own good. "Of course I still want to watch a movie." I answered. So Jesse helped me get cleaned up. He helped me clean off all of the blood and scratches. I could see the painful look in his eyes as he preformed each task carefully so he would not hurt me anymore than I was already hurt. I could tell it hurt him to see all of the blood, scrapes, and bruises and not be able to do anything about it. I could tell he also knew that it all didn't come from falling down and running into a mailbox. I sat down on the couch and Jesse wrapped his protective arms around me as we prepared to watch our movie…

(Hey guys!!! OHHH!!! What do you think will happen next? Write me a review and tell me what you think. I also accept criticism. What do you think would be good songs for Angel to sing? I am also going to have a chapter later on that is a memory of Jesse's and Angel. It is were Angel and her softball team do a surprise skit for their boyfriends. By the way, if you guys don't start reviewing more, I'm not going to update. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm evil So please update. I only have like five reviews and I know about 170 people have read my story. SO REVIEW!!!!!! REVIEW, REVIEW, REVIEW!!!!!!!!
