Chapter Fourteen
Ally's POV
He grabbed my hand, "You do don't you?"
I nodded and looked down at the blanket that was covering me. It was white and thin, I didn't like the way it felt on my legs.
"So you know who it is?"
I nodded again.
"Then you can tell the police," He says.
I thought about it for a second, I could tell the police. Uncle Jeff would go to jail for years. But Alexis...she'd have no dad. She already lost her mom. I don't think I could do that to her. Just take away her last parent. It's just selfish.
I shake my head. "No, I can't."
His eyebrows furrowed. "Why?"
I pull my hand from his. "I just can't."
"Can you tell me then?" He asks.
I thought about it. He'd just tell the police. I shake my head. "No,"
"Ally," He says, then takes a deep breath. "I can't deal with someone just hurting you. Repeatedly."
I look at him for a second, confused. He doesn't notice.
"And if you know who it is and you won't tell everybody well…that…that's just fucked up. And I…" He stands up and turns around. He shakes a little bit. "I don't know what I'll do if I know someone is hurting you and I know I could do something to prevent it."
"Austin, it's complicated. I can't just tell who it is. You'd understand if you were in this position."
"Yeah?" He says. His back was still to me. "But if I were you I'd trust my boyfriend enough to tell him." He starts walking to the door.
"Where are you going?" I ask.
"I'm going to get a nurse. They need to check you out."
He leaves.

After the nurse came and made sure that my brain was properly working, the police came in and talked to me. They asked questions I had to lie about most of it. After they left Alexis ran in, she was going to hug me but I had to remind her about the broken ribs. She nodded then started filling me in about what recently has been happening.
Austin walked in a little bit after her; he stayed back in a chair looking at his phone.
"Oh and Austin…Ally, he is a real keeper." She says. She had a wide smile on her face. "He is really nice and he let me use a lot of his money to buy Sour Patch Kids." She looks over at him. "Isn't that right?"
Austin looked up and smiled. "Yeah, and she ate over half of the thirty bags she bought, leaving me with hardly any."
She shrugged, "I can't help it, and they are good."
I laugh.

It was a week after everything, and it was a Friday weekend. Trish was at work, surprisingly, Dez was busy taking photos for a class and Austin…We hadn't really been talking that much.
Uncle Jeff hasn't came back.
Alexis and I stayed up that night talking like normal girls do.
I had no idea was time it was but I figured it was late. We were both quiet either watching TV or on the computer. We were silent.
"Ally," Alexis says.
"Yeah?"
"D-do, um, you know who did all those things to you?" She asks.
I look over at her. She was looking at the bed's comforter.
"Um, no I-"
She cuts me off and looks at me. "Don't lie to me."
I swallow the water that was rushing to my mouth. That usually means I'm about to throw up. "Okay, then yes I do know."
"Can I ask you another question?"
"Alexis, are you okay?"
She had tears coming up to her eyes and she looked pale. "Well it my dad?"
I felt the blood fall from my face. "Why would you think he did it?"
"B-because he," She stops herself.
I scoot closer to her. "Does he do things to you, Alexis?"
She nods slowly.
"Why haven't you told anybody?" I ask.
She looks at me angrily. "Why haven't you told anybody?!" She screams. "Ally, I'm not stupid. There's been fucking scars on your arms for months. Something it going on."
"I didn't tell anybody because I didn't want to take away your only parent!" I scream back. "Why didn't you tell anybody?!"
"Because I didn't want to believe it!" She screams. She takes a deep breath, she was crying uncontrollably. "I didn't want to believe that my dad could do something like that."
I look down. "How long has he been doing it?"
"Since he got out of jail," She looks at me for a second. "What about you?"
"I don't remember."
I remember being seven years old and him telling me to go for a ride with me. He'd buy me chocolate and sugary drinks. Then he'd tell me to play a game with me. I'd try to fight him telling him that I didn't want to. But I was never good at games, so I'd always lose.
I started crying. "I shouldn't told the police at the hospital."
"We can tell them, together." She said. "I don't think I could by myself."
I nod. "Maybe, but I have to talk to Austin first."

I took a deep breath and walked, more like wobbled with my ankle cast thingy, up to the door. I stood there for a second. My heart was racing, I was sweating and my head hurt a lot.
I raised my good arm up to the door and knocked. I waited for a few seconds. Nobody came to the door. I looked at the driveway, no cars.
I knock harder.
I hear footsteps then the door opens slowly.
Then there stood Austin, I looked up at him and realized how much I missed him. I could tell he just woke up; he was rubbing his eyes and was in an old t-shirt and his underwear.
After a second of looking at me he realized who I was.
"Ally,"
"Hi," I say. I look at the ground then back to his face. "Austin, w-we need to talk about something."
"Okay," He sounded confused. "Come in."
I walk in.
