Silently Screaming (Kotlc human AAU)

Chapter 9: A good meal

Sophie POV:

"Someone hurry and take a picture."

"They are sooooo cute!"

"Are they dating yet?"

"Guys shut up Sophie's waking up."

My eyes fluttered open to find myself laying down on something really comfortable. Then I felt an arm around me.

I squeaked and immediately fell off the couch. I was holding on to Keefe and he held onto me as we slept.

Then I found all my friends standing there with the biggest smiles on their faces.

"You guys were so cute!" Biana squealed.

"Are they dating?" Adam asked.

I turned beet red.

"No." I mumbled.

Then Keefe started waking up. He sat up and rubbed his eyes.

"Did you sleep well?" Fitz asked with a smirk.

Keefe have a tired smile.

"That was one of the best nights of sleep I have ever had." He said.

Everyone snickered as I turned beet red.

"Why is everyone laughing?" He asked.

Biana handed him her phone. The second he saw the pictures they took, he turned even more red than I was.

"Oh." Was all he said.

"Yeah..." I said slowly, looking down.

"Well at least we slept well." He said quietly, making me smile.

"Sophie." Jacob said walking up to us. "We're hungry."

"I'll make you guys breakfast-" I started before getting cut off.

"No way Sophie!" Biana said. "We are going to get a good meal today since it's Saturday."

My eyes widened.

"Yeah." Dex agreed. "Let's get Dennys."

Everyone else nodded and we immediately left the tree house.

So Dex and Marella became best friends with my brothers. They talked the whole time as we walked to Dennys. I walked with Keefe and talked with him.

"Are you sure your okay?" Keefe asked me.

I looked at him and sighed. "I'm fine.

He turned his head towards me with glassy ice blue eyes.

"Those bruises on your ribs weren't regular bruises done by hand." Keefe said, his voice slightly trembling. "They were done by a bat."

I paled. There was no way...

"How did you know?" I asked.

He sighed and walked slower, making everyone pass us. Then once we were behind everyone, he raised his shirt revealing his perfect ab's and 3 dark blue circles going around his rib cage. My hands instantly shot to my mouth.

"You can't tell anyone I showed you or what I'm about to tell you." He said, pulling his shirt back down. "My parents abused me too. Mom and dad were drug addicts. So they would beat me, and these were from a bat. My parents died a 3 days ago from overdose."

I immediately rushed over and hugged him.

"I'm so sorry." I said.

He hugged me back gently.

"It's okay." He whispered. "Their deaths were for the better."

I pulled away and stared at him. "What?"
