Chapter 2: Tell me what to do

*Alice Pov*

Jasper didn't come to school today. That worried me.

I knew he was hiding something yesterday, I just didn't know what.

I knew first hand how bad his dad was, I witnessed it when I followed him home. It was bad, he could barely move without being in pain, and that was my fault. I shuddered remembering the pain he was in. I can't take it anymore. If he wont tell anyone I will.

After school I went to talk to my dad, he could help. He was a doctor after all, so he has to help. Unfortunately he wasn't home. Mom said there was an emergency at the hospital. She said if I really needed to talk to him I could go there. So I went to find him.

When I got to the hospital I waited in his office. It was a while before he came so I decided to read one of his many books.

After a while ha came in, he looked surprised to see me. "Alice? what are you doing here?" he asked, "I really need to talk to you, and it can't wait... well, it can't wait much longer" I rephrased that because it had been an hour and a half since I actually got to the hospital. "Oh ok. well what do you need to talk about?" he asked, he sat on the leather couch and motioned me to sit next to him. I got up and sat next to him, he put his arm around me and waited for me to tell him everything. I didn't want to actually tell him, so I made something up.

"Well umm. My friend, has a boyfriend, and he is abused at home. But he won't tell anyone, and if I- I mean, my friend, tries to help he won't let her. And she is worried because he didn't show up at school today. I just don't know what to do to help her" I said, I looked at him and by the look on his face I knew he could see behind my story.

"well Alice, if your 'friend' really wanted to help her boyfriend she should tell someone. He may be angry at first but in the end he will thank her." He said, I nodded.

I looked at him. "it's Jasper" I whispered, he froze. I never told him my boyfriends name, I'm not even sure he knew I had a boyfriend he worked so much. "Jasper Whitlock?" he asked, something in his voice didn't sound right. "Yes.. why?" I asked warily.

He looked at me with a sad look and I knew. "Where is he? What happened?" I asked, I got up and headed to the door, if he was here I have to find him. "Alice wait. you can't go see him." he said, I turned on him. "I have to! He is my boyfriend he needs someone, he needs me!" I yelled, my dad put his hands on my shoulders.

"Alice he is in a coma. in ICU" he said.

At those words, my world came crashing down.

My Jasper.

My entire life.

I knew then I would do whatever it takes to keep him away from the monster he is supposed to call his dad, even if he hated me for it.

I had to.

He would do the same for me.
