As we head inside, I feel my sister wanting answers after hearing what y/n just said to me, infront of everyone, my thought is how did she know? She had no right to saying it out loud in front of everyone! She could of just spoken to me alone, I know I would of lied to her but that's a different story.

As I head up the stairs to go to y/n room I feel MK hand grab mine, I turn and look to see her and Ashley looking at me concerned.
"Is it true" MK asks softly
"What" i reply
"Has he been abusing you" she says looking at me trying find an answer on my face, I don't even hesitate I just shake my head no as I say "no he would never" and I leave and head into y/n room closing the door behind me and crying

Why am I still lying to everyone when y/n already said it, why am I still protecting him after all he does is beat and rape me day in and day out.
I'm crying on y/n bed and hugging the pillow.

Few minutes pass and I hear y/n bedroom door open and close, I don't move from the bed I can already feel that it's her that just entered her room, I feel the bed dip down lightly by the end of my feet and here y/n let out a deep breath

"Lizzie" she says with a shaky voice
I don't answer because I personally don't want this conversation to happen.
"Okay just listen, look I know he's been abusing you, I knew something was going on but didn't know what untill this morning when I woke up and went to cuddle you from behind while you was asleep, but I notice your sweater was rised up showing the deep marks and bruises he's left on you, I know I shouldn't of just said it infront of everyone and should of spoken to you first but I didn't wanna see you leave with him, I don't wanna see you go through that you don't deserve it.." she pauses and I hear her sniffle, her voice was breaking while talking, I slowly move sitting up on the bed and notice y/n crying, I crawl over to her and pulling her into a hug, as I hug her tears streaming down my cheeks in a sign of relief that I don't have to go back to him, and she here with me.

Y/n slowly pulls away from the hug, still with her arms around me
"I know you feel worthless and like nothing, but I can promise you that is not true, I also don't wanna see you gone through what I went through and" I cut y/n up "y/n please I'm fine, but I'm grateful to have you in my life, you're so caring and sweet you've got a heart of gold, but I don't understand what you mean by 'what I went through'" I see y/n face drop in colour realising that she never told me what she been through, she only told my sister, and I can't be like oh yeah I know I found out yesterday before the film.
"Um, that doesn't matter, what matters is that your safe" she say stumbling on her words with a small smile

"Y/n it matters to me" I say placing my hand on her cheek and making her look at me
"Just forget I said anything" y/n says getting off the bed, I get off also and pull her back towards me
"Y/n so hiding from me, talk to me" all I want is for her to open up to me like she does with my sister
"Lizzie please just drop it, all that matters is your safe" she says placing her hands on my cheeks
"Just answer one thing for me" I ask and she looks at me and nods
"Why are you and your mom not talking" I say, knowing she won't like the fact I asked, y/n looks at me shocked like how do I know kinda thing
"Just because something from the past repeated itself again" she says letting go of me and walking into the bathroom and I follow
"Y/n don't push me away" I say
"Lizzie I'm not, I just need a toilet" she say and I move backwards away from the door so she can shut it, I notice she didn't lock it normal she would, I sit back on y/n bed and my mind going wild.

I hear a knock on y/n door and then my sisters enter the room, Mk sits on the other side of the bed next to me while Ashley sits at the end of the bed.

"Look we know you don't wanna talk about it but we need to know what's been going on" MK says putting her arm around me pulling me into a hug
"There nothing to talk about I say"
"Lizzie, just be honest with us and not lie" ash says looking at me concerned.

Just as I went to talk y/n came out of the bathroom and noticed my sisters in here,
"I can give you guys some privacy if you like" she said as she walking the other end of her room
"No you can stay" Ashley said and looking at y/n
"Okay" she said and leans back on her desk in the room, I notice Ashley looking at y/n a few times and y/n doing the same

"Are you two dating" I say out of no where
"Who" MK says looking confused
"Ashley and y/n" I say
"Haha really..." y/n started to say before Ashley cut her up "no we're not dating, we're just close, I'm there for y/n when she had some tough times while you've been pushing everyone away, and not even messaging anyone back, so when she needed you I was there for her" Ashley says
"Ash stop" y/n says pissed
"Are you kidding me, I shut you all fucking out because I was scared because he was beating me day in and day out, constantly raping me and hurting me, I've I received a text from one he would look at it and then hit me I couldn't do fucking anything" I say crying and angry

"He's been what" y/n says angry and moves away from the desk, "I'm going kill him" she says
"Y/n no" I say getting off the bed and stop her from leaving her room
"Please don't leave me" I say with tears running down my face, y/n emotions change, she hugs me tight
"I won't leave you, I got you, you're safe" she whispers in my ear as she holding me and I'm holding her tight sobbing
