7. My savor

Rose's pov

Since I was feeling better today Aunt Elizabeth let me go to school.

I did what I would usually do every morning and headed to school. For some reason, Diana went a bit early so today I was walking alone.

I hummed and read a book while walking. Then suddenly I felt someone jump in front of me causing me to bump into them.

"Well well well look who we have here. Hello, doll face" said the figure. I recognized that voice from a mile away Billy Andrews.

"W-what do you want," I said taking a few steps back as he stepped closer.

* warning read at your own risk *

He smirking and stepped even closer.

I kept moving backwards and my back hit a tree. Now I have nowhere to go.

His hand harshly grabbed my wrist and the other on my waist.

"Billy your hurting me!" I yelled struggling to break free because of his strong grip.

I pushed him off causing him to hit the ground.

Then I heard a branch break from behind me and footsteps running toward where we were.

"What's going on?" the person yelled.

The person turned out to be Gilbert. (ofc)

He pushed me behind him. "If you ever lay a hand on her again you'll regret it!" gilbert said pushing Billy.

Billy just smirked and ran away. 

Tears started to fill my eyes as gilbert turned around.

I ran into his arms and hugged him tightly.

I began to sob into his shirt while my other hand scrunched it up.

We stayed there for a few minutes while Gilbert softly whispered sweet things.

We both sat leaning on a tree. Why did it always happen to me?

"Why does it always happen to me?" I said my voice lower than a whisper.

Third-person pov

They sat there completely forgetting about school.

Rose never told Gilbert what happened in the past with her father's friend.

She cried harder as the memories flashed through her mind.

Rose was in her bedroom when she heard her after calling for her.

"Rose! Come down here! I want you to meet someone!"

"Coming father!" she yelled as she ran down the stairs.

When she got to the bottom she saw her father standing with a man.

The man was thin and had pale skin. He had short stubby brown hair.

"Rose, this is Jackson. My friend." Her father said gesturing to the man.

"Hello sir," she said with a kind smile. Instead of getting a smile back, the man had a wicked smirk on her face.

"He'll stay with us for a few days"

They went on as usual and night soon fell.

After sitting at the table for supper Rose felt Jackson's leg rub against hers. That made her feel uncountable but she thought it was an accident.

That night, Rose was just about to go to be when she heard a knock on her door. It was late and she knew her parents were asleep but she didn't think much of it and opened the door.

Jackson walked into Rose's surprise. 

"Oh, Jackson. Did you ne-" she was cut off by him.

She felt a stinging sensation in her cheek.

She could never recover from that night but now it was just made worst.

She just cried harder at the thought into Gilberts shirt.

"Thank you Gilbert," she said her voice shook as she spoke.

"You're a savor"
