Chapter 9

Sophia's POV ~"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?" I heard a familiar voice yell that sent shivers down my spine... Its was Ryan. I jumped under my covers and started to cry. Dylan got up and put his shorts back on."Why are you even in here?" Dylan yelled."D-dyl-Dylan dont!" I chocked on my words. I was terrified. I knew what Ryan was capable of an if he hurt Dylan badly i would feel to blame and i know if you could make it so Dylan couldnt fight back... That i would be really screwed."Shut up Soph! Lets see if Dylan here can handle himself." Ryan yelled at me."Dont talk to her like that! Now answer my question. Why did you even come in here?" Dylan said."Really Soph? This kid over me your joking me... but, I was told to come get Sophia and YOU.... To come down for dinner because Soph wasnt answering her phone." Ryan said walking closer to me. "Get away from her Ryan. Your only here because you've been threatening her. Dont make it worse on yourself. Go downstairs and tell them we'll be there in a minute." Dylan said. Ryan stopped moving and looked at Dylan. "If you have any common sense you should leave." Dylan said. Ryan didnt say anything else and walked out of the room downstairs. I was crying, Dylan ran over to me and wrapped his arms around me. I was terrified of Ryan... I was shaking, i thought he was gonna hit me in front of Dylan or worse... Rape me. "Shhh.... Soph its okay i promise i wont let him do anything to you." Dylan said. He got my shirt and slid it on me just so i was covered and held me in his lap and rocked me back and forth. I laid my face on his chest. "I dont want to go down there Dylan. I thought he was gonna hit me again, right here in front of you..." I whispered. "I know you dont but its the right thin to do... And he's not gonna lay a hand on you unless he has a death wish." Dylan said and i giggled. "I'll head on down, change and come down when your ready." Dylan said."Okay..." I said. He kissed my cheek, got up threw on his shirt and went downstairs. I closed my door and locked it. I put on my panties and shorts, i took my shirt back off to put my bra on and then put my shirt back on. I brushed through my hair and braided it to the side. I decided not to put make up on because it was gonna be a long emotional night. Something about Ryan has been really off lately... See when we first started dating it was like dating my best friend. After a while he started acting weird. Then he got mean and abusive and started cheating and hes been the same ever since. I pulled myself together and went down stairs. Everyone was already sitting, i saw my seat was between Dylan and Ryan... Like who fucking planned that!?!? "Hey everyone" I said and everyone said hi. I sat down and looked at Dylan and he grabbed my hand and pulled it on his lap and smiled, i faintly smiled back. I was very uncomfortable next to Ryan. The adults were in their own convo and us kids were being quiet until Ryan opened his mouth."Why him over me?" Ryan said."Lets not talk about this now, my sister is here and everything." I said."No, i want to know why were you going to sleep with him when you've only known him for like only almost 2 weeks." Ryan said."Ryan! My sister." I huffed."I want to know." He demanded. "I didnt leave you for him so i dont understand your problem. I broke up with you for a reason and then i just met Dylan like you said 2 weeks ago but at least he knows how to treat a girl." I said."This kid is an asshole Soph." Ryan said."No hes not! Shut up your such and asshole!" I whisper yelled. I wasnt expecting what happened next. Ryan backed up a little and slapped me across the face, right in front of everyone. It hurt like hell because i hadnt been hit im a while. When i was more consistently it didnt hurt as bad..."ARE YOU OUT OF YOU FUCKING MIND?!?!" Dylan yelled as he got up. My mom ran over to me to see if i was okay. I started to feel dizzy and light headed an like i was gonna pass out."Ryan? What the hell is wrong with you lately!?" Ryan's dad yelled. I stood up an ran to my room crying, my mom followed me.Dylan's POV ~I lost it... I totally lost it. I jumped up and ran over to Ryan and punched him in the face. He punched back an hit me in the face and by my eye but i got a good punch in and knocked him down. I stood there beating the shit out of him as his dad yelled and mom watched in shock. I felt 4 hands trying to pull me off of Ryan. Im guessing his and Sophia's dad."TELL THEM!" I screamed at him."NO!" Ryan yelled back. I held back and punched him square in the face."TELL THEM NOW OR I WILL!" I yelled."FINE! I BEAT SOPHIA! I USE TO PHYSICALLY ABUSE HER!" Ryan yelled and i stopped hitting him."WHAT?!?!" Ryan mom said. "Besides now i havent touched her since we broke up!" Ryan scrambled for his words. Ryan's dad came over to us and pulled me off Ryan and dragged him outside. We could hear yelling but couldnt really make out what they were saying. I went to sit in the living room. It took everything in me to beat the shit out of him, he's a pretty big kid. I sat down and Sophia's dad came in to check on me."You okay Dylan? He hit you pretty hard." Sophia's dad said."Yeah i'll be fine... Probably just a black eye no big deal." I said."Thank you for standing up for my daughter." He said."I-i love your daughter Mr. Johnson... I truely do" i said looking from the ground to him."I know you do, i know you mean it too. Your not just saying that, you mean it." He said and i shook my head. "What happens now?" I asked"Well all this stuff needs to be reported along with everything else and im gonna talk to Heather, i want a restraining order against him. (He paused) I just dont know how we didnt know what was happening..." "She told me i was the only one who knew, not even Gracie knows." I said."I'll handle everything down here, you can go check on her. You should ice that by the way." He said, i smiled and went upstairs.I could hear crying while i was walking up the stairs. I walked into Soph's room and Tara was next to her rubbing her back and Heather across from her. She was holding an ice pack on her cheek. She looked up when i walked in the room. I could see the pain in her eyes. She jumped off the bed and ran towards me. I met her half way across the room because she was staggering as she tried to walk, and she collapsed into my arms. She grasped to my shirt putting her head on my chest and continued crying. I picked her up and brought her over to the bed. I felt so bad i couldnt stop this from happening but it just wasnt possible."Im sorry Soph, there was nothing i could do..." I whispered and held her tighter."Its okay its not your fault dont think that." Sophia whispered back and then looked at me. "Dylan your eye!" She screamed and took her ice pack off her cheek and put it next to my eye. You could see his hand print on her face... Thats how hard he hit her."I'll be fine Soph. Keep the ice on you cheek." I said placing the ice back on her cheek. She leaned on me and i held her. "Im gonna go down an see whats happening. Come on Tara go to your room, give them some privacy." Heather said an they both left. I couldnt stand to see her cry anymore. It killed me on the inside. I still cant believe what just happened. I wanted to try and make her laugh so i told her what happened."So just to let you know i beat the shit out of Ryan." I said."Good!" She laughed and pecked my lips."How does tour head feel?" I asked."It hurts.... Probably a concision, wouldnt be the first time." Soph said."Sophia thats not good." I said."I know but i'll be fine trust me." Soph said.After a while both of Sophia's parents came up into the room. They both took a seat and the door was closed. They wanted to talk about everything."Umm... Well, we are placing a restraining order against him. Also they are taking him to be drug tested and if its positive then they are going to send him to therapy and rehab." Mr. Johnson said."Why did you never tell us Soph?" Her mom asked."Two reasons. One i was afraid what he would do if i told and two because i didnt want everyone knowing and just i didnt want to talk about it." Soph said. "Ok well im gonna get you both more ice." Heather said and left to get ice from the kitchen. She came back and gave us each a bag of ice. "Rest up you two." They both said and left. Sophia and i both laid down. She laid with her head on my arm right next to me. I had my one arm wrapped around her keeping her close."I love you." I said."I love you too." She said and we both went to sleep and stayed home from school the next day.__________________________Who wasnt expecting that? Huh? Tell me watcha think! Hope ya like it!!
