Typical

Chapter fourty one

My knuckles were shaking, blood dripping down them as Mike fell back, clutching his jaw.

"Shawn"! Willow cupped my hands, not hesitating too push through the crowd and out of the house as fast as possible.

I could feel my chest pounding, rage and anger running through me.

I couldn't see, Everything was blurry.

"C'mon, get in the back" She opened the back door, laying me across the seat.

My head was spinning.

"Shawn what the hell, you.. You hurt yourself. Over me" She shook her head back and fourth, water welling in her sockets.

Her voice cracking as she anxiously found something to wrap my bleeding knuckles in.

"WHAT HAPPENED"???? Ian yelled, running up to the car.

"Just drive" Will ordered, jumping in the passenger seat but looking over the back, holding my hand as he hopped in and started the ignition.

I wanted to punch that asshole again.

I wanted to scream.

I wanted to drink more.

"I didn't.." I tried to speak.

"I didn't fuck anyone will" She nodded, biting the skin on her bottom lip.

"I know Shawn. It's okay"

....

Willows POV-

I watched him sleep, his chest fall up and down as my cheek lay across it.

He'd been passed out for hours now, I just wanted to be with him.

Make sure he was okay.

It didn't matter to me that Shawn lied, I mean.. I wondered why but I cared more about his health then wanting to pick an argument that would lead no where.

"Is he gonna be okay"? Penelope peeked her head through the door of Shawn's room.

I nodded, half smiling.

I'm sure Shawn's had this happen more times than I'd want to know.

"Willow.." She walked in, her head sunk.

I frowned, sitting up.

"Are we ever gonna see daddy again"?

"Why would you want too"? I fumbled out, too harshly.

She blinked.

"I'm sorry.. I mean, I dunno Pen." I wanted to say I hope not but I couldn't. I didn't know, I mean.. Dad wouldn't be smart enough or care enough to file a missing kids report.

I don't even think he's noticed were gone yet.

"I don't want to go back to daddy's. I just want too say.. Goodbye"? She pursed her lips together.

I stood up, going over to kneel by her.

"We can go say goodbye, together okay p"? She nodded, resting her hands in mine.

"Today"?

I nodded almost too quickly.

Finally getting to leave him, and make him know I was leaving.

Already had a weight lifted from my shoulders.

"Where are you going.."? Shawn sat up, raspy voice with bed head.

I smiled.

"Pen go back downstairs and watch some t.v, I'll be down in a sec okay"? She nodded, twirling her feet and running out the door.

I stood up straight, wiping my knees off.

"Um.. My.. My dads" I knew he wouldn't like this.

He wouldn't want us to go.

But this is what I needed.

What me and Pen needed.

"What? No your not.. Fuck my head hurts" He dropped his face in his hands, shaking it back and fourth.

I walked in the bathroom and poured some water before bringing it out to him.

"Drink this.." He took it, chugging it down.

I sat at the end of the bed.

"I have too go Shawn, I didn't want too but I have too"

He shook his head again. Throwing the covers off himself and standing up towards the bathroom.

"Your stupid"

"Probably" I bit my bottom lip, falling backwards and staring at the white roof.

"Your not going. Why the fuck would you even consider it"? I could hear the shower turn on, water smacking against the floor.

I squeezed my eyes shut.

Trying to remember what it was like when mom was around.

Everything was okay.

More than okay.

I missed her.

So much.

"Because Shawn. Me and Penelope need too"

He didn't respond.

Only shut the bathroom door all the way and disappeared behind into another room.

I laid there.

Thinking everything over.

When my mom was alive, for the longest time my family was perfect.

We would go out to eat and to all these family pic nics.

Then, my mom got laid off her job, my dad had to pick up more hours and they started to fight.

Every night.

It jus kept getting worse.

And worse.

".. Shawn" I opened the bathroom door, letting my self into the steam of the air.

Fogged mirrors.

"Hmm" he hummed, under the water.

I peeked the curtain open.

I hadn't seen Shawn's full body before, we'd never gotten to that point but it wasn't like I was a kid and made a big deal out of things.

We were comfortable with each other.

"Can I join"? He pushed his soaking hair back.

"Well obviously"

I left the curtain open.

Letting Shawn see my every move as I lifted the fabric from my body.

My shirt, my bra.

Then my jeans..

Then slowly.

My panties.

"Come on baby girl" He held out his hand as I got myself in.

Pushing our body's together in synch, my chest against his.

I pecked his lips gently.

Water fell between them.

"Shawn"?

"Hmm"? He repeated himself, kissing my forehead over and over again.

"I love you"

I did.

I did love this boy.

He made me so happy, he gave me hope when I didn't have any left.

He brought the Willow I was back.

"Willow"?

"Yeah"?

"I love you too, so much."
