One Secrete Revealed

*Aella*

It's been a few months now since I started spending time with Axel. Life has started slowing down to a normal routine of going to school, getting picked up by Axel or if he showed up to school getting a ride from him to his house, then going home and getting the shit beat out of me usually. It's getting harder to hide the cuts and bruises though...and that's what scares me. I don't want Axel to find out, if he did I think it would kill me.

Axel didn't let Ryan get away with bruising my jaw and got him stuck in a hospital with a broken legs, a fractured wrist, and a broken rib. Let's just say no one has messed with me since, and have kept their distance from me, which is exactly what I like. He and I have grown closer and I find myself wanting to be with him more and more.

As I sat on my bed finishing up some last minute homework I heard my window open. Axel crawled in making me panic. Carl was home and if he came in and found Axel here I wouldn't walk for a week (literally...) "What the fuck are you doing here?!?!?" He shrugged,

"I wanted to be here" I groaned in annoyance,

"Just keep it down...Carl is home"

"Carl? Is that your uncle?" I nodded and he sat across from me on the bed,

"Why not just call him uncle"

'Because he is a piece of shit who I don't see as my family!'

Sighing I pulled my hair back,

"It's a long story" he shrugged getting up and heading to my door, "where the fuck are you going!" I stood up in an instant.

"Food" I groaned in annoyance,

"You can't just go get fucking food!" Axel frowned,

"I'm hungry" I felt like slapping him,

"Fine I'll get you food just stay here dammit" he laid back on my bed as I quietly left to get him something to eat.

'I swear sometimes he's such a pain'

just as I was about to open the fridge something pulled my hair forcing me back and hitting the counter. I winced in pain as I looked up at Carl, dammit...

He held a bottle of beer in his hands that was almost empty, shit he was drunk. He smiled down at me with a face that scared me,

"What makes you think I'm letting you eat?" I looked at the floor quietly. He grabbed me by the throat lifting me up slightly, "Answer me!!!" He screamed. I prayed to god Axel didn't hear him. He threw me back against the corner of the marble counter my back jolting in pain.

'No please not now not with him here'

He wasn't done, as he started dragging me toward the stairs,

he threw me down the steps and Unstrapped the belt around his waist using it as a whip. He started slashing my body and pounding me into the concrete without giving me a chance to breath. I felt my vision blur as he slammed my head down and I felt blood run down the side of my head and bleed though my clothes. Just as I felt myself lose consciousness I saw Axel standing on the stairs looking at us with pure anger and hate,

"No... Axel go..."darkness took me as the pain became too much. Carl didn't seem to notice him as he kept kicking and whipping me.
