Chapter 11

Bryson Pov

I woke up to the loud sound of the storm that was outside my window.
I mean it was raining,lightning,thundering,and windy.
I looked at my clock on my desk next to t bed to read 3:30am.
I rubbed the sleepiness of my my face off with both my hands.
I sat on the edge of the bed and look outside my window.
All of a sudden I heard a knock on my window.
Huh?
I ran to my window thinking it was a branch.
But I looked and saw it was danni?(let you know Bryson stays in a one story house).
I quickly opened the window and let her in.
I grabbed her from the outside and picked her up to eat her in my room.
I sat her down on my chair in my room and shut the window.
She had a hoodie on and some shorts.
That's all.
I was confused.
I lived 10 minutes away from her so why did she walk all the way over here.
Especially at 3:30 in the morning?
I sat down in a chair across from her.
She had her hoodie on her head.
So I didn't know if she was crying or sad.
But she kept looking down.

Bryson:danni is everything ok??(concerned)

She sniffled.

Danni:no(crying)

I heard her crying.
I took off her hoodie and saw her look at me.
I saw fresh bruises on her face and neck.
Rage filled my body.
The only person that came to my mind was Ronnie.
I stood up.

Bryson:Who did this??(mad)

She couldn't answer me.
All she did was cry.
I started pacing my room.
I didn't know what to do.
I mean it bothered me someone would even think about touching danni.
I punched my wall causing a big hole in the wall.
Danni ran over to me.

Danni:stop please.....I'm ok(crying)

Bryson:ok??YOU HAVE SOMEBODY BEATING ON YOU AND YOUR FINE??(yelling)

As I said that she started crying even more.
She sat down at the end of my bed and hugged her knees.
I felt bad for yelling at her.
But I cared about her too much.
I walked over to her and sat next to her.
I pulled her close to me and let her cry on my chest.

Bryson:in sorry ight??.....just who did this?? Ron??

She shook her head no.
I knew she wasn't gone tell me who did it.
At least not know.
So I ignored the question.

Bryson:come on...

I stood up and took her jacket off.
She had on a sports bra with dry blood on it.
I became more mad at the sight of other bruises.
Some look old but the rest look new.
I ignored it for now.
I took her to my bathroom.
I made her sit down on the counter and I went searching for my first aid kit.
I found it after a couple minutes and started applying rubbing alcohol to her bruises.
She winced at the pain but after while stopped.
I put a bandage over her bruises that was still bleeding.
I walked into my closet and grabbed one of my big t-shirts.
I handed it to her.
I headed for the door so I could let her change.
I closed it and waited for her....

I was laying down on my bed watching tv.
Sponge bob was on.
I looked at my clock to see it was 4:30am.
What was taking her so long?
After a couple seconds the bathroom door opened and she walked out.
She crawled onto my bed and snuggled in my covers under me.
I wrapped my arms around her.
I turned the tv off so she could get some sleep.

Danni:thankyou......

Bryson:I would've done this regardless.....

She looked up at me and smiled.
I pecked her on the lips with mine.
She then went to sleep..
And I did the same...
