Stay With Me

Chapter 26

Today was great. Sun was out and it was so beautiful. Maybe I can go for a walk today or maybe the beach with.... I froze.

Cameron.

I turned still confused as I looked around my room. I jumped as a loud bang hit against my door.

I stood there wondering what the fuck was going on. "Leah!" His voice yelled out. I walked towards the door nervous, but I still wanted to know what was wrong.

I stopped dead in my tracks as his fist connected with the door again. Why was he so determined to get inside?

I wasn't a nervous anymore, I was petrified as he kept making things on the wall crashed to the floor.

"Open the door Leah!" I stood there with my heart pounding in my chest.

What was I supposed to do right now? The door wasn't going to hold him and that's what scared me. What would I face once the door was taking off the hinges by him?

"Open the fucking door or I will break it down! You know that and once it is....Whatever I do to you will be your fault" he roared.

Tears started to form in my eyes as I repeated his words. Would he really hurt me? Did I piss him off?

"Cam? I don't know what I did but, I'm sorry. Just calm down -" "I swear on your life, If you don't open the door in five seconds...five fucking seconds I will-" I busted out crying as I stood there looking at the door.

"Why are you acting like this? Why are you so mad at me? I can't open the door until you calm down. We can talk it out just stop yelling and calm down. Please" I begged.

Silence.

I took a breath trying to calm my nerves and wiped the tears away. He listened?

I started walking towards the door again when it flew open make me scream backing up. His blood shot hard green eyes instantly locked on my frightened ones as he stumbled walking.

"I said five fucking seconds now, I could give two shits and about your crying" "C-" "Shut up!" He screamed lunging for me as I ran to the other side of the room so happy he was drunk. I don't think I could stand a chance if he was sober.

Run out, Go to a neighbors house!

I was pulled by the back of my shirt and thrown back to the ground roughly. I cried as pain shot through me and I tried as fast as I could to get up.

He was watching me carefully as he walked towards the door. I winced finally standing up and started backing up towards the wall as he smiled and slammed the door closed.

I jumped slightly opening my eyes. Oh my gosh. I was okay I kept repeating looking at the ceiling. I took a deep breath and looked to the side and nearly jumped falling out of the bed seeing him.

I forgot I was at his house of course. He didn't even seem phased by movements at all. He was fast asleep.

I was fine now but that dream was....Scary. It felt real. But I believed with all my heart that Cameron would never hurt me. So why was I on edge?

Because as much as I didn't want to believe it, there was a chance that it could happen. He was already losing his temper and snapping at people but could it get that worse to where he was ready to hurt me physically? I didn't want to find that out.

I laid there thinking and watching him sleep till I heard footsteps. Mike. I quickly slipped out of the bed quietly putting my jeans on and walked out of the room towards the steps. I know he was upset. His house was destroyed by his son.

I went up the steps and found him in the living room and he froze as he saw me. "Morning" I mumbled with a small smile as he looked at me surprised. "Morning... How are you?" He asked trying to cover up his sadness and shock.

"I'm fine- listen-" "Julia told me" he said sitting on the couch. I nodded unsure what to say. "He calm down though -" "He did. But what if he didn't?" He asked and I looked at the floor still unsure. "What if he hurt you?" My thoughts instantly flash to the dream sending a shiver up my spine.

He took a deep breath "I love my son but, this can't continue and you know it too" I nodded agreeing. "He needs help" "Yes, somehow. He's getting worse and I fear that if he continues, he'll hurt what he loves the most. You" He whispered looking down.

I bit my lip thinking. Was there a chance I would be harmed by him? "I need to figure out a way to make him agree to get help" he said thinking.

"I'll talk to him" I said getting up.
