“Please stop!” toi sob as another kick is delivered to your stomach causing toi to gag.

“Shut up toi little bitch.” A soc mutters as he slaps toi across the face.

“I didn’t do anything!” toi choke on your tears.

The only response is a another slap.

Pain rockets through your body.

His hands reach straight for your throat, squeezing the life out of you, slowly.

And then his hands are suddenly off your neck.

toi gasp for air, taking in huge gulps.

toi feel a strong hand on your back. toi automatically want to flinch, thinking its another soc, but toi know who’s touch it is.

“Darry,” toi gasp.

“Baby, are toi hurt?” He says, looking toi over.

“A couple bruises.” toi shrug.

“A couple?” He almost laughs. “You look pretty bad.”

“Is… Is it alright?” Suddenly concerned for your safety.

“It’s fine. I knocked him out. He won’t bother toi again. I swear.” He says, putting his hand on your cheek, and wiping away your tear with his thumb.

“You promise?”

“Baby, I swore to toi It’d never happen again.”

“Thanks for saving me.”

“Why wouldn’t I?” He smiles at you.
