I held his arm but Andrew just dragged me the entire way. He only stopped when he got to the first porch steps of Kyr's house. I knew what was going to happen but I couldn't stop him. Andrew had anger and rage in his eyes, not the soft sweet clear blue I love and his perfect pink lips were pressed into a thin line. Andrew knocked on the door but didn't hold me at all, I held on to him and tried to pull him back but he's much bigger than me so it wasn't even a nudge. I knew who was still living at home and going to open that door. Kyr would be upstairs studying but Jamie would be on the couch watching TV before he left for his job at the McDonalds in town, that didn't pay much and apparently hires pot heads.
The door opened and Jamie stood in the doorway, he didn't look much different from that time, only shorter hair, a scruffy beard and a dazed look had done over the years to match. I hid behind Andrew, clutching his shirt, scared. Andrew noticed and caught on that it was Jamie at the door. "Can I help you?" Jamie asked, not noticing me behind Andrew. Andrew just scoffed at him and swung. Jamie stumbled back but was back to his feet in no time and punched Andrew back. It went into a full out fight as I moved away and Kyr came downstairs to check on the noise. She looked over at me, scared and crying.
"Rey?" She said and went over to hug me. "Rey, what's going on?" she asked me, petting my hair. "Why is Andy beating up my brother?" she asked shocked. I looked over and Andrew stepped on Jamie with his long gazelle legs, holding him down on the ground.
"Your brother here is the reason Remains doesn't want to speak." Andrew told Kyr, still holding down Jamie.
"What does he mean Rey?" Kyr asked, I couldn't think of what to say but Jamie had already taken that chance.
"I don't what the fuck you are talking about, you freak." he spat at Andrew, getting out of his grip.
"You raped my girlfriend, you mother fucker!" Andrew said threw his teeth and grabbed Jamie by his shirt and pushed him. Jamie just chuckled.
"Hey, she was hot even when she was a just an eight grader." Jamie said laughed, the anger boiling up in Andrew and he pounced again. Jamie went back at him and ended up with Andrew on the ground bleeding, Jamie held him down and chuckled. "A little emo slut needs a emo faggot like you to protect her, doesn't she." he muttered. I was now not sad or scared I was angry. How dare he call Andrew a 'faggot'. I gritted my teeth together as Jamie was about to punch Andrew. I yelled.
"Stop!" everyone paused and I could hear police sirens coming close. Kyr looked at me in amazement and shock.
"You spoke. I am so glad to hear your voice again." she hugged me close, I was about to say something when I was cut off by police cars pulling up and telling us to haul. The current scene was Jamie on top of a bleeding Andrew so the police assumed it was Jamie who did the fighting and let Andrew go. Andrew told them what happened and the officer took Jamie away for assault and rape charges, while some EMTs fixed up Andrew. He had a broken nose and two broken ribs but as he says he couldn't feel them. I sat next to Andrew in the ambulance. Just waiting for one of the officer to say we can go. Andrew held my hand as we watched two officers drag Jamie passed us and toward the car but as he was being dragged passed us he yelled at me.
"You did this! I will get you for this and make sure you never speak again." the officer took Jamie and pulled him away and put him into the police car. Andrew held my hand tight as I sob a soft cry.
"Andrew." I whispered.
"Remains, don't worry. I will never let anything happen to you. You are to valuable. I will protect you always." He said kissing the top of my head and showing off that gorgeous smile of his.
"I love you, Andrew." I whispered, placing my head in his chest.
"I love you more than anything, ReyRey." Andrew whispered into my hair and pulled me close pressing his lips to mine. I lightly cupped his cheek with my hand trying not to hurt him while his hand moved to my lower back. Andrew started singing to me softly trying to calm me in his angelic voice, "This love will set you free from thoughts of yesterday." Andrew smiled at me, "Remains you really are beautiful." Even in the worst situation Andrew's kisses and smile can just make it all the most better. I am deeply in love with this boy and never want to let go. My celebrity crush turned into my real life knight in shinning armor -my knight in black war paint- Who I never believed in a million years would really love me. I am so happy. I may just be remains right now but with Andrew's help I will slowly put myself back together. That's love for ya.
