I sighed, and watched the customers file out of the shop at closing, glad my shift was over. “Candy, I’m heading out, but first I gotta grab some food for Reggie.” Candy, my supervisor, nodded, and pointed to the bag already on the counter, “Crispixs with peanut butter and milk, all set.” I smiled, and said, “You’re the best Candy.” “Don’t you forget it you imp.” She chuckled, and shooed me with her hand. I laughed, and grabbed the bag, tucking it in my messenger bag. Then I headed out into the shopping center, ignoring the catcalls I got. As I turned onto Main Street, I could feel the wind pick up as I hurried down the busy street. ‘Now I know why I hate it here.’ I thought, turning onto my street. Lights from all the houses spilled through the windows as I tugged on my t-shirt, having taken off my work shirt. My work shirt clung to my chest, and all the guys who hung around my work stared. So I take it off after my shift ends, and stuff it inside my black messenger bag. I walked up my sidewalk, and opened the door. “I’m home.” I yelled, stepping into the entrance. “BELINDA.” I heard, and then Drake and Jacob ran down the stairs, straight into my open arms. I smiled, and hugged them, relishing their affection. I never got this kind of affection from Dan. I mean, I know he’s a singer, and always busy, but when we are together, he never does anything to make me feel special. So when my siblings hugged me or showed any affection, I took it to heart. Anyway, I let go of them, and said, “Where are the others.” “In their rooms.” They chorused, and I ruffled their hair before heading upstairs. Andrew stuck his head out of the room he shared with Drake and Jacob and said, “Hey Belinda.” I nodded, and headed down the hall even farther. Keith stepped into the hallway, and said, “Hey Belinda, Regina and Eden are asleep, Skyla is on the computer in my room.” I nodded, and headed into my room, where sure enough, Regina was curled on her twin bed with Eden. I smiled, and dropped my bag onto my bed, collapsing next to it. Eden began to whine, so I walked over. “Sssh. Auntie’s got you.” I cooed, picking up the toddler. She giggled, and rested her head on my shoulder, smiling. “Wanna come downstairs with me.” She nodded, and I grabbed the bagel bag, bringing it downstairs with us. After I made the cereal, I walked upstairs with it in one hand, Eden in my other arm. When I walked into my room, Regina was awake and talking to Andrew. “Reggie, you have to leave him, he raped you.” Andrew said, and Regina stood up. “I can’t Andy, I just can’t.” “Why not.” “Eden’s here.” I said harshly, walking over to Regina. I gave her the cereal, and put Eden down next to her. Andrew cast a look at Eden, then got off my bed, and left. I smiled, and looked over at Regina, who had tears streaming down her cheeks. I smiled weakly, and sat next to her, hugging her. “Ssh. It’s okay Reggie. I understand.” I cooed, rubbing her back. Eden looked at us confused, before saying, “Mommy.” Regina looked up, and smiled. “Come here baby.” She said, opening her arms. Eden crawled into Regina’s lap, and I smiled. “I’m gonna call Dan.” Regina nodded, and I left the room to use the phone in the kitchen. Andrew was outside shooting hoops with Keith, and I smiled. I picked up the phone, dialing Dan’s number. “Hello.” He said, and my heart soared. “Dan.” I said, hopping onto the counter. “Hey honey.” He said, and I could picture him leaning against his counter, twirling the phone cord. “I was wondering, if you could come pick me up.” “Sure.” He said, and I heard jingling in the background. “I’ll be there in ten.” He said, and hung up. I smiled, and hung up, running to my room. Regina looked up when I came in, and raised one of her eyebrows. “Dan.” I said, walking to our closet. I decided to wear a white miniskirt, pink halter-top that hit above my stomach, and black heels. Then I scrunched my hair, and walked onto the porch. Keith looked up as I walked out. “Going out with Dan.” He said, shooting the ball towards the hoops general direction. It crashed to the ground, and I laughed while nodding. Keith cursed, and I heard loud bass from up the street. Dan’s car pulled up, and I rushed off the porch. He opened the door, and I got in, giving him a quick kiss. He smiled, and kissed me quickly on the lips, holding my hand. I smiled, and put my belt on, bobbing my head in time to the music. Dan drove down the street, pulling onto a small dirt road. I looked at him quizzically, but he only smiled. He put the car in park, and leaned towards me. I smiled, and wrapped my arms around his neck, bringing him in for a kiss. He smiled, and our lips crashed together, me moaning out his name. He pulled away, and said, “Let me make love to you.” I shook my head, and he glared at me. “Get in the backseat.” He growled, and I nodded, crawled into the backseat, lying down. He smiled, and crawled on top of me. He pulled my underwear down, and I started to cry. He slapped me, and said, “Shut up or I’ll give you something to cry about.” I didn’t, and began to shake from fear. He growled, and grabbed my arm, twisting it until I heard a sickening crack. Then he began to kiss my neck in an attempt to calm me down. It didn’t work, so he began to punch me in the stomach. I heard three more cracks before he threw me out of the car. I cried out in extreme pain, and went to get up. But Dan had already driven away. I whimpered in pain, and began to cry as I heard someone walking towards the clearing where I was. "Anyone here." a male voice called, and I sniffed, wiping my eyes with my uninjured arm. "Over here." I whimpered, cursing when it hurt my ribs. A blond figure crashed through the
brush, and I gasped when I saw who it was. "Are you okay?" Nick Carter asked, and I shook my head, gasping for breath. He rushed over and said, "Where does it hurt." I told him, and he gently picked me up, covering me with a jacket. I whimpered, and felt Nick adjust me in his arms. He smiled reassuringly, and said, “I got you.” I smiled, and felt the blackness envelope me.
