" Night, night Lila." I whisper while closing her door.
I put Lila down for a nap because she was really cranky and sleepy.
Everyone in this house is asleep but me.
I walk down the stairs as quietly as possible and turn the tv on. I decide to watch Supernatural. Ugh! Babies leave such a mess.
I get off the couch and pick up Lila's toys and bottles.
"Ding! Ding!" My phone buzzes.
I grab my phone and see that I got a text from Four.
" Can I come over?"
" Sure!" I reply.
I hear someone knocking one door.
I go over to the door and four is standing outside.
" That was fast!" I say.
" Ya. I was already in your drive way."
" Stalk much?" I say lightly hitting his back.
" Ow!" He winces.
" Four our okay?" I ask with concern in my voice.
" No."
" Are you bleeding? Did you get hurt?"
" Ya I got hurt. And I don't know if I'm bleeding or not."
" Come into the kitchen."
" K."
" You have a baby sister?"
" Oh no. Lila is my cousin, but her mom is so busy she practically is."
" Is she here right now?"
" Ya but I just put her down for a nap about a half hour ago."
" Oh oh!"
Once we get into the kitchen I ask Four where his injuries are.
" All over my back." He says gesturing to his back.
" Ok. Take your shirt off please."
" Wait what?!"
" How am I supposed to treat your back if I can't see it."
" Fine."
Four slips off his shirt wincing every few seconds.
" Holy Crap! a Four what the heck happened?" I ask shocked.
" Marcus." Is all he says.
Who the heck is Marcus?
" Who's Marcus?" I ask
" My dad."
Oh my gosh!
" Your dad did this to you?! Was he drunk or is he just weird?"
" He's an abusive parent."
" What about your mom?"
" She died during child birth complications when I was little."
" I'm so sorry Four!"
" It's okay. I'm used to it but this time it hurt a lot more."
" How often do you get beaten?"
" Almost everyday."
Holy crap!
The baby monitor starts to make noises. Lila must be up.
" You should go get your cousin." Four says.
I forgot he was here! Man he looks so hot sitting on my kitchen counter shirtless. Tris! Snap out of it and go get Lila!
" Ya it's 7 so she's probably wants dinner."
