I slowly turn around to see what I can't believe was actually real, I almost cried.. It was Dustin. I screamed and jumped into him and hugged him as tight as I can, enough to know this wasn't a dream and it was all real. I took my headphones out of my ears and stared at him confused, happy and crying. I was still clinging on to him and he just looked at me and laughed in happiness. "What are you doing here? How? When?" I had so many questions. He smiled at me with that same goofy smile and said "I'll explain it all to you at your house, can we go there?" I smirked and agreed. We walked all they way back to my house. The whole time we were walking he just looked at me all happy, he was shy but he tried not to show it which made him even cuter. We finally got to my house I threw my bag on the ground and we both sat in the kitchen across from each other. He looked up at me and said "surprised?" He smiled and giggled while saying that. I was still sorta crying because I was so happy. I ignored his question and said "how? I thought you couldn't be here? Don't you have school? I thought you-" he interrupted me "don't ask, I'm here now, that's all that matters" I smiled and wiped my running mascara from my eyes. "Is this why you called me like 10 times this morning?" I smiled. "Yeah, thanks for answering by the way." He smirked and giggled. I was still shock. "Anyways how have you been, love?" His British accent made me smile so much. "Way better since your actually here now" I giggled. He giggled too.
I heard a pounding on the door behind him.. It's my dad. "Oh god" I said to myself. "Jessa, Is that your father? You told me what he does.. Is he drunk again?" He talked low. "Go upstairs, Dustin, I'll deal with him.." I sighed. "No I can't leave you alone while he just hurts you.." He looked at me. "Please Dustin?!" I sorta shouted but I felt bad. He sighed and ran up the steps. I opened the door. He came in barley could walk his breath smelt like alcohol, it was disgusting. he came over to me and started yelling "WHY THE HELL YOU AINT IN SCHOOL?!" He could barley speak straight. Before I could even say something he grabbed my hair and pulled me to the ground. I was so weak. He soon pinned me against the wall and started punching me. My eye swollen and my face was all bloody. He pulled a gun to my head while I laid on the ground and cried. I'm so worthless, I thought to myself. "Dont fucking leave this house or you'll get it even worse tonight!" He put the gun away and left the house and drove to God knows where.
I was on the ground, laying in the pool of my blood crying and then Dustin came down. I hate for him to see me like this. He sat on the ground looked at me held me and started crying. Soon, he got up and went to get a towel to wipe off my face, he picked me up off the ground and sat me on the table and wrapped a towel around me and cleaned up my face. "Oh my god Jessa, what did he do to you..?" He was still crying a little bit. I was shaking because I was so scared and I was stuttering my words. "He p-put a g-gun to my h-h-head.." I started sobbing again. He wrapped his arms around me. "I'm gonna take you up to your shower, okay? Get cleaned up. I'll wait in your room, if you need anything I'm here now Jessa, remember that." I felt so secure for once. we went upstairs, I went to the shower and got cleaned up while he waited in my room.

I sat in her room still shaking from all that's happened. I felt so bad for her. I loved her so much. I didn't want her to feel this way. I got up from off her bed and decided to look around. I looked at the pictures on her mirror of her family and friends. Her walls covered in band posters. I saw a little pink jewelry box hiding behind her TV. I wondered what was inside there but right before I could look she came out with the towel wrapped around her. I could see her self harm scars all over her wrist and arms. There were so many, but I loved her anyways. I sat her down on the bed and looked at the time. It was 12:30 pm. I gave her her brush and some clothes to put on. I left the room while she got changed and came back in. She was a mess but she was still so beautiful. She had a black eye and a busted lip. But damn she was so beautiful. "How you feeling now, love?" I said to her with a smile. "I feel like shit." She looked up at me, she was trying to hide her wrist. "Darling you'll be fine, lets just lay down and cuddle for awhile." I put her under the covers then I took off my hoodie and shirt and came over there with her. I grabbed onto her tight and brought her as close to me as possible. I locked my fingers with hers. It felt like time stopped and it was just us. I think I actually loved her.. She was really tired from having such a long day, so I kissed her on the cheek and held her tighter. I soon dozed off too..
I hoped you guys like it so far!! I'm trying my hardest! Any suggestions please comment <3 thanks ily!
