Chapter 6

Sidney’s POV

 

I walked downstairs after closing the door on her, trying to keep my emotions in check. I couldn’t flip out, that would only make things worse. To my surprise, Marc-Andre, Kris, and Jordan were all still sitting at the kitchen table. Jordan stood up quickly before asking, “Dude, what happened?” He asked.

I sat down at the kitchen table putting my head in my hands. “Okay guys, what I tell you now never, ever, ever, repeat. I don’t think she even knows that I know, my mom called me a told me.

Kris looked at my seriously. “Okay man, we promise.”

I took a deep breath before starting the story. “So, about last year Kylie calls me and is so excited before she’s dating this guy named Brent.” Even saying his name got me mad, but I continued. “According to my dad and mom, he was the sweetest boy ever. He treated her with respect and always looked out for Ky. I even meet him once for a hour, I thought he was great for her. Apparently though, he started to change a couple months in. He started hanging out with the wrong crowd and started doing drugs. Kylie denied it all and kept going out with him.” I paused looking down at my hands, this part was the hardest. “Then, Kylie started coming home with a lot of bruises and cuts, she kept saying it was just from the different sports teams she was on. And my parents believed her, until one night. She was bleeding, had a black eye and a horrible bruise down the side of her face and a lot of other bruises. The worst part is, her clothes were in shreds..” My voice was so tight with anger I could barely get this part out, “he..raped her. Dad says she was in such hysterics that he was considering putting her into the hospital that night. She didn’t get out of bed for four days and my mom had to stay by her side all the time. Then she packed up and came here.” I said sighing, I can’t believe I just told them that.

 

Marc-Andre and Kris were staring at me, their jaws open. Jordan looked absolutely livid though, his face was bright red and his fists were called up. “I can’t believe I didn’t beat that little bastard up right there in the store!” He yelled.

Marc looked at me. “I’m surprised she isn’t a lesbian now.”

 

Next Morning

Kylie’s POV

 

I got up the next morning, feeling incredibly sore. I dressed and walked downstairs to get breakfast. Sidney was reading the newspaper at the breakfast bar and he looked at me carefully. “Are you o-“ he began to ask but I quickly cut him off. “Let’s just forget about last night, kay?”

He looked at me before nodding slowly. “So, I’ll drive you to school again this morning, how does that sound?” He told me.

I let a smirk play on my lips a little, “I thought that yesterday was a one time deal?” I asked innocently.

Siddy shrugged, “The circumstances change.” I grabbed my backpack off the counter, “Well thank you.”

School was normal, boring as usual. I noticed a poster that said soccer tryouts started tomorrow. Lana saw me pause at it, “Hey, do you play?” she asked.

I shrugged, “I guess, I played in some leagues back home, but nothing was too competitive. I mean in Cole Harbour everything is just hockey,hockey,hockey.”

She looked at me, “You should try out!” She exclaimed.

“I’ll embarrass my self..” I said hesitantly.

“No end of question, you’re trying out.” Lana told me. I punched her on the shoulder lightly. “Fine, only if you come over tonight and we can pig out on junk food and read gossip magazines.” She grinned, “Of course, peanut butter covered graham crackers.”

I wrinkled my nose, laughing before I opened my locker and a note fell on the floor.

 

Seeing you last night was great. I can’t wait to see you again Ky ky.
