Dime held me as I continued to cry,
"You doing better?" Dime asked as my cried became quite
"Yeah," I responded as I lifted my head and wiped my eyes
"You want to stay in here a little longer while I go check on the boys?" Dime asked as she wiped my cheeks, I nodded, not wanting to see Drew and Tom at the moment,
"Ok, you lay in your bed and I'll go check on them before coming back for you," Dime said as she helped me to the bed
"Thanks, Dime," I whispered as I closed my eyes and fell asleep. I opened my eyes to see the sun shining through my window,
"How long have I been out?" I asked myself as I got out of my bed and moved to the window,
"Wow, the sun looks like it's been up for a while," I said to myself as I smiled, welcoming the sun rays on my face and skin.
"Morning sleeping beauty," a voice came from behind me, I turned to see Drew standing in my doorway,
"Morn
The men looked at us with shock written all over their faces, "You heard the girls leave now," Drew said as he smirked, the men looked at one another before looking back at us, "We aren't leaving," one of the men said as he stepped forward "If you won't leave on your own, then we will make you leave," I said as I pointed a stun gun at them, the men looked upset but stood their ground as they came at us. Drew was the first one to counterattack, Drew punched the closet man and sent him flying before moving onto the next one, Tom followed Drew and fought with two men, Dime and I stood behind them and waited for some men to pass them. Drew and Tom were putting up a good fight but some men were starting to get past them, Dime started hitting them with the bat while I started stunning them with the stun gun before having to move onto a bat as well. "You doing good?" I shouted to Dime as I knocked a guy to the ground with my bat, 
"You good, Tom?" Drew asked as he noticed his friend's pale face, "He's fine," I replied for Tom as I smiled sweetly, Tom nodded as he looked away from me, "If you say so," Drew replied with skepticism. Tom took Dime up to her room as it got later in the day, "I'm gonna put AJ in bed and go to bed as well," Tom said as she grabbed Dime from me, "Don't try anything funny," I whispered in his ear as he picked up Dime, Tom gulped and nodded as he left the living room. "Leave the poor man alone Moony," Drew sighed as he sat down next to me on the couch, "Don't want to," I replied as I got up to move away from him but Drew grabbed me and pulled me back onto the couch. "Can we please talk?" Drew asked as he held me "Talk, talk about what?" I asked trying to push Drew away, "Why won't you admit you like me?" Drew asked as he looked into my eyes "Remember your past and w
As I wiped my tears away Drew and Tom came bursting through the classroom door, "Are you ok?" Drew asked as he came rushing towards me, I moved away from him and nodded, "I'm fine," I answered and walked out the door, pulling Dime with me as I left. People stared at me when I walked by them in the hallway and during classes, they would stare but look away when I would look at them. Lunchtime was finally here and I headed for the cafeteria to grab Dime, who decided to go say hi to Tom before joining me outside to eat; I watched as Dime walked over to Tom's table to say hi but something was wrong, I watched as Tom smiled seeing Dime walking to him and his friends but Tom was the only one smiling while the others glared at her. Dime walked up to the table and bent down to kiss Tom's cheek, "See you later," Dime said as she leaned back up and tried to walk away, keyword tried. Dime was stopped by Nate while Grant walked over to her, Brock walked to To
"We all want to know what happened to Saph and Dime, we really do," Tom started to say as he looked at Dime and me,"Yeah, like we are going to believe that," I sighed as I got up to leave, rolling my eyes at the lies the boys were spilling in front of us."Please Moony, we really do want to know what happened to them. Brock and Grant regret what they've done to Saph and Dime, they really didn't want to do it but they were threatened by their parents," Tom explained as he jumped from his seat to stop me,"How where they threatened?" I asked as I sat back down, thinking maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea to hear what Tom had to say;"Their parents threatened to take away their rights to the companies," Tom explained and I chuckled"That's all?" I asked as I chuckled and Tom nodded,"That's all it took for them to abuse their sister!" I shouted"They could've protected Saph and Dime and made their ow
Dime and I ordered our food first before sitting at a table where we could see the boys from the car, "Ok Dime, how are you doing?" I asked as I sipped on my sprite, "I'm doing better now that I've had some time to think. How are you doing Saph?" Dime asked as she sighed, "I'm still trying to wrap my head around what those boys said," I replied, moving my hands to hold my head, "I completely understand that," Dime agreed as our food was handed to us. Dime and I conversed while eating our food, Dime had chicken tenders and fries with a Reese's concrete mixer, while I had a grilled cheese and cheese curds with an oreo concrete mixer. "So, how are we feeling about the boys' confessions?" Dime asked as she ate a spoonful of her mixer, "I feel very conflicted with the confessions. They hurt us and put us both through hell and then they say how they liked us and they didn't want to hurt us but had to
I ran to Drew as the fight started to pick up heat. Drew took the first punch that was thrown by a gang member, but Drew threw one right back as soon as he gathered his wits. Even though Drew was outmanned he looked like he could win the fight but, of course, Drew was outmanned and needed help, there was no way Drew would win the fight without help. "Drew!" I screamed as I reached his side, knocking a few guys as I ran to Drew, "What are you doing here?!" Drew screamed as he knocked a guy to the ground, "You can't do this by yourself and no matter how upset I am with you, you need help," I replied while knocking the lights out of the guy attacking me, "But they are after you, you should have left with Tom and AJ," Drew fought back. I understood his reasoning, I mean he wasn't wrong, the gang was after me because they believed Drew was my boyfriend and that kidnapping me would harm him; maybe the gang was right, maybe Drew would
The police lowered their guns while Tony smirked and made his way towards them, Drew, however, was not in for the plan and made an attempt to get me back, "Moony!" Drew screamed as he struggled against the gang members who threw him to the police, "Like Tony said Drew come find us if you want me back," I answered as I walked away with Tony through the crowd of police officers. Tony lead me back to the warehouse they were hiding out in, "Welcome to your new home," Tony announced as he threw his arms open to show off the dump he called home, "I think I like it here," I flirted as I grabbed onto his arm, trying to buy Drew and the police some time to get to the warehouse, "I'm glad you like it," Tony flirted back as he threw his arm around my shoulder, "Shall I show you our room?" Tony whispered into my ear and giggled while nodding my head, but really I wanted to puke and punch him in the face. T
Tony paced while keeping his eyes on me, "You tricked me didn't you!" Tony shouted as he pointed his finger at me, his eyes flaring with anger, "I didn't, please Tony, I really choose you because you were stronger and better than Drew," I pleaded, really trying to convince Tony to keep my plan in action. Tony faltered for a second after my pleading, but he continued his pacing and thought process, "But you came over to me too quickly, there's no way you actually fell for me as you said, there's just no way," Tony mutter under his breath while I watched the blue and red lights flicker outside the window, "Tony," I called out for him as I walked to him and threw my arms around him, facing him away from the window so he couldn't see the police lights outside, "I really did fall for you, you were overpowering Drew, who was pretty strong. You obviously are better suited to protect and care for me," I whispered into his
7 years later "Dime, Saph!" Trish yelled from my room, "Coming!" Dime and I yelled back together as we ran to Trish. Trish laughed as Dime and I stumbled into my room, "These boxes are ready to go," Trish said as she suppressed her laughter, Dime and I nodded as we picked up the boxes Trish pointed to. "Are we actually moving out?" Dime asked as she set the two boxes she was carrying in the bed of the truck, "We are," I said to Dime, knowing she was just amazed by the fact that we were leaving our safe spot, "Come on girls there are more boxes up here!" Dave yelled from the stairs, "We are coming!" I yelled up to him. "Honestly, it's more surprising that we are moving into new houses without each other," I said to Dime as we climbed the stairs, "Well, we tried convening them to let the four of us move into one house, but those two are too stubborn," Dime grumbled a
Drew and Tom were standing in front of our door, "What do you want?" I asked them, getting really annoyed with their antics, "We just want to talk," Tom said as he looked to Dime, "Fine," Dime said as she grabbed Tom and walked to her room. "Can we talk as well?" Drew asks before I can go after Dime and Tom, "Fine, but you have to come to my room. I have to finish packing," I said as I walked away from him, "Sounds good to me," Drew said as he shut the door and jogged after me. We walked past Dime's room to see the door closed "Tch," I clicked my tongue as we passed by; she obviously didn't want me to hear what was being said. Drew entered the room behind me and closed my door, "Why did you close my door?" I asked as I snapped my head around to look at him, "So we can talk without interrupting Dime and Tom, and so you can't try to get rid of me," Drew said as he sm
Dime and I pulled into the apartment parking lot and waited for Dave and Trish. "How are you doing?" Dime asked me, "I'm fine," I answered as I kept an eye out for Dave and Trish, "Are you sure?" Dime asked as she looked at me with worried eyes, "Yes, I'm sure. Dime, even though we went through a lot today, we made big decisions and made it through the day even though there were a ton of obstacles," I answered as I smiled at her; Dime smiled back as Dave and Trish parked next to us, "Shall we?" I asked Dime, "We shall," Dime replied as she got out of the truck. Trish was in the kitchen cooking dinner, she kicked us out, yelling about how w
Trish and Dave grabbed Dime and me as they headed for the parking lot, "Meet you at the apartments?" Dave asked as we stopped in front of my truck, "Sounds good to me," Dime responded as she nodded in agreement, Dime was so ready to get off of the school grounds and go home, and I didn't blame her, "Yes please," I responded; Dave and Trish nodded before saying goodbye and walked to the car they came in. "Let's go, now," Dime said as she opened the passenger door to the truck, "I agree before anything else happens, let's get out of here," I agreed and went to open the driver's door when I was stopped by a hand grabbing the door handle. "We need to talk, Saph," a voice echoed in my ears as the person spoke from behind me, "Great, here we go again," I whispered to myself as I turned around to see the boys standing by my truck looking at Dime and me, Drew was the one who was stopping me fro
"Now without further ado, I hereby announce that this class has graduated!" Mr. Ben shouted with a huge proud smile on his face, then we, students, threw our caps into the air and shouted with happiness. I laughed as I watched my classmates hug one another, I watched as some even cried as they caught their falling caps, and I watched as many laughed and ran to their families in happiness; I looked to Dime and smiled, "Shall we go see 'our parents'," I asked as I nodded to the crowd leaving the bleachers, "We shall," Dime smiled, happy we actually had people to celebrate our graduation with. Dime and I ran towards the bleachers to see Dave and Trish, "Congra..." my mother started to say as she opened her arms for me to run to her and hug her, but I ran past her to Dave and Trish, "Dime!" Dime's mother shouted as she came running to us but we ignored her and ran into Dave and Trish's arms, "Congrats girls!" Dave and Trish
I walked up to my seat noticing my brothers were watching me as I walked up, "What do you want?" I asked as I sat down in my seat, "We just wanted to apologize and ask what your plans are after graduation," Brock said as I sat next to Grant, "I'm not listening to this right now, and I'm not telling you my plans for after graduation," I replied looking forward to the stage, where the teachers and principal were getting ready for the graduation. "Saph, please, we really are just trying to apologize for our past actions," Grant said as he turned to look at me, "I don't care right now I want to get graduation over with and get away from the two of you as fast as possible," I snarled out as I glared at my brothers, who looked away from my glare. "Saph," a voice called out from behind me, I turned to look who was calling my name and shook my head in frustration, "Enough, go away. The ceremony
Tom and Drew walked up to Dime and me with smiles on their faces, "Ready for graduation?" Tom asked as he checked out Dime, his eyes traveling down her body to take in her outfit and how hot she looked, "Oh trust me, we are so ready for graduation," I responded stepping in front of Dime to get Tom's eyes off of her, "Why do you say it like you're about to run away from here?" Drew asked as he checked me out, "Because we are, we are going to a college far from here," I admitted before realizing my mistake, "Ok, get out of our way so we can graduate and get out of here," I said as I grabbed Dime's arm and pulled her away from the boys. "Wait up!" Drew called after us and joined Dime and me as we walked towards the football field, "What do you want now?" I growled out as Tom stepped next to Dime and gave her a small smile, "We are just trying to have a conversation with you two and
Dime and I woke up feeling excited and refreshed, "Ready for Graduation?" Dime shouted from her room as she got out of bed, "Totally, you?" I shouted back as I entered the bathroom before Dime, "Totally, I'm ready to get out of here," Dime admitted as she threw open the door to the bathroom and joined me in it as I brushed my teeth, "However, I'm not ready to face the boys again as well as our entire school," Dime said as she stepped into the shower, "I agree, it's going to be horrible in that sense," I nodded as I washed my face at the sink, "Do you think our parents will show up?" Dime asked as she peeked her head from behind the bathroom curtain, "I'm not sure, I hope they don't," I answered before walking out of the bathroom and back to my room. I shoved on a white crop top before pulling up some red dress pants "Wait, won't your parents be there because of your brothe
Trish and the officer followed Dime and me into our apartment, "Goodness, your parents really did make a mess in your place," Trish said as she looked at the mess around her, "Yeah, sorry, it's usually cleaner than this," I said sheepishly as I rubbed the back of my neck in embarrassment, Trish shook her head and turned to look at me "Oh honey, I believe you. I can't believe your parents would do this," Trish said as she looked at Dime and me apologetically, "How about I start making some food and you guys can talk," Dime offered as she pointed towards the destroyed TV room, "Sounds good to me," Trish and the officer said as they headed towards the room and started picking stuff up. Trish and the officer helped clean up our apartment as they listened to me explain more about my past and listening to what had been happening in the past few months, "Wow, I can't believe that all happened," Trish said as she handed
