I'd Die For You

Chapter 12: The Truth

*Sarah's POV*

The next morning I woke up from a dream, a nightmare of my mom stabbing my brother over and over again in the stomach. I was glad that I didn't scream out loud like I did in the dream, I heard people out in the living room and I looked to see that it was 12 in the afternoon. I got up and dressed before going out to the living room to see that everyone was there. Roku was sitting on the sofa with Lily, her tiny leg was in a pink cast. Then yesterday events playing in my head before I could let them know that I was out of my room.

*Flash Black*

"Sarah! Sarah, help me please. SARAH!" I heard my brother yelling for help and I ran up to his room. My mom standing there with his hair in her hand, holding him up. Lily was barking and growling at her. "Sarah...." He looked at me, eyes in tears and trying to hold on to my mom's arm so she didn't have him fully hanging by his hair.

"Sarah can't do anything for you Christian. You're a evil boy, not one loves you or care about you. Just take your punishment like a man." She pulled out a knife and I seen her cut into his arms and chest with the blade. He screamed in plan and was cry. He never cried unless losing someone close to him.

"Mom please stop, you're going to get the cops here. Let him go." I begged her to let him go.
"No, he must be punish. You know that Sarah....he's an evil child. He has to go. He can't be here anymore." I seen her push him to the floor and he felt on Lily. The little dog cried in pay and ran into the closet. Christian didn't care about the danger he was in, his head shot up and he looked right at Lily.

"Lily! Come here baby, I'm so sorry, I didn't want to hurt you!" He reached for her but that's why my mom was on him and stabbed the knife four times into his stomach. My brother screamed in pain the first time but after that he was coughing on his own blood.

"Mom stop it! You're going to kill him!" I pushed her away from him and ran to his side, holding him in my arms. "Chris, you have to stay with me. You can't do this to me, not now. I need you little brother. Just keep looking at me." I heard my dad come in the door. "DAD! COME QUICK! MOM'S TRYING TO KILL HIM!" I screamed as loud as I could. My mom was in his bathroom doing who know what.

"Sarah, if anything happens to me. Tell my friends I'm sorry. Tell them I haven't been good to them. They do nothing but stick with me and I'm stupid for not realizing that until I'm at death doors." He pulled a letter out of his pocket and gave it to me. "That's for Roku....she always been there. And please make sure that Lily is okay. I think she's hurt from me falling on her." He was coughing more and closed his eyes.

"Chris? Wake up. CHRIS WAKE NOW!!!!" When he didn't move, I knew he was out cold, that's when my mom came back into the room. "Mom stop this, he needs a hospital now....he's going to die...."

"He's not dead yet." She picked him up, pulled him away from me and started walking to the bathroom. "But don't worry, he will be out soon....forever." I got up and followed her and see that she had the tube full of water. She dropped Chris into the tube and he went under. I screamed as me dad came into the room. He rush over, slamming my mother into the room and grabbing Chris out of the water. He held Chris in his arms and carry him outside.

"Sarah, get towels...." I ran back into the house and got a towel before running back out and putting it on his stomach, trying to stop the blood. Andy's parents were outside and calling for help. My dad left me with Chris and ran in to make sure my mom couldn't get free. I put the note away that was for Roku. I would give it to her after telling her the truth, they all needed to know what happen back in LA. Chris wasn't a bad go, he just has a lot of blame on himself. My mom side of the family hates us and disown her for something he didn't have control over. It wasn't his fault. We were stupid kids and here my brother dying in my arms at 17. The cops and all show up and they rush to help my brother, got him stable enough to get him to the hospital. Andy perants went inside, they took my mom out and that's when Christian's friends show up.

*flash back over*

I was leaning against the wall crying and that fast I felt someone hugging me, when I looked up it was Roku and everyone was looking at me, staring at me. I must have zone out with the flash back that I didn't even see them or hear them. They all looked worry and I sighed a bit.

"I have a lot to tell you all. One, Chris is really sorry that he didn't realize until pasting out that you all were good friends to him. He should have stick with you then push you all away from him. He told me he was stupid about it and he's really sorry for not being a good friend." I walked over and sat down. Lily curl up on my lap and I pet her. "He's going to be happy you're okay and just have a hurt leg." I kissed her head and the phone came back to me, Chris was in a coma and may never wake up again.

"So, the girls told us that you had something you wanted to tell us." Jinxx and everyone sat down. I needed to tell them about what happen.

"This is going to be a long story, I would make it short but there is no way to make it short." I sighed a bit.

"It's fine, anything that we can help with. Just we need to know why things are like this. Why he's in a coma, why he ended up doing everything he did for the last few months." I nodded to them and I started that day.

*flash back Chris age 10*

We were having a family party, everyone was going to be there and it was a warm day in LA. We didn't have school because it was summer. It was around noon time and we were all eatening. We had the party at this park on a bunch. Chris wanted us all to go to this abandoned house that was on the edge of a cliff on this beach. We were talking to our parents and they were okay with us going. Told me to make sure the kids were good. It was me and Chris and our cousin Nick. He was the youngest of my mom's sister's kids. He was only 8 years old, just two years younger then Chris was. He was friends with Matt and Liz too. Everyone knew and loved Nick because he was a good kid. He might have been 8 but he was in the same grade because of all his grades and how smart he was.

His parents told us not to go but our parents were always like 'This is what Christian and Sarah does. they always have fun. Don't worry Nick will be safe with them'. But they were so wrong. We walked up to the house and right a way I could tell that it wasn't too safe.

"Chris, we can't go in there. It looks like it's about ready to fall and I can't let you and Nick get hurt. I would be in so much trouble. Come on boys, let go home." I smile but Chris looked so upset. "Fine, we can go back you have to be really careful."

We all walked into the house and the boys went crazy, running in and out of all the rooms and up the stairs. Chris and Nick went into this one room that looked like it was a baby room. I followed them and they were playing with all the old toys and looking around. See the story behind the house was they were a rich family and they all ended up getting sick and dying. So to stop it from happening, the rest of the family moved away leaving everything behind and abandon the house. The boys were jumping on a old bed but the house started making this weird sound like it was breaking.

"Boys it's time to leave...now...." I pulled them off the bed and walking out of the house. It seem there was a storm coming, one of the worse one ever. When the thunder cracked the house was shaking. "We need to leave now!!!!" We all ran for the door.

We were almost out of the house went we heard Nick scream and looked behind us to see he had felt through the floor and was hanging on for his dear life. "NICK!!!" Chris ran back to him and pulled him up but the house was shaking a lot and the big light that was still hanging was swing back and forward. "Come on, I know you're hurt but we need to get out of here." Chris pulled him up and they started to run. The light what was swinging, crack and felt, it landed on Nick and he was trapped under it. "NICK!!!!" We ran to try and get him out of it but before we could get back into the house. Our parents pulled us out. "No, Nick is in there, he's trapped under a light! You have to get him out!" Chris was freaking out and some of the adults ran in to get him out.

It was a little while but Nick's dad walked out of the house, laying a limp body in his arms. He was crying and he lean down once he was out of the house and holding his son. "The light crush him, every bone in his body. He's dead." My mom's sister came running and screamed when she saw her youngest child dead and she turn to my mom.

"This is your son's fault! You allow him to be so free that it gets my prefect little boy killed! It's funny your daughter is even alive! That kid is evil, he has no control and should be locked away from ever! I disown your whole family!" She was yelling at my mom and I could see my mom breaking in pieces from what her sister was saying. "I don't want your family near us anymore. Nick was the prefect kid and you son got him killed for being while and crazy to do as he wants!"

"That's enough! Chris is only 10, he didn't know this was going to happen. Sarah tried to get the boys out as soon as the storm started. Chris saved him from falling in a hold, he didn't have control over the light! It was just Nick time to go. You can't blame a 10 year old boy for this." My grandmother was mad at her daughter for attacking Chris.

"It wasn't his time to go, if anything Christian has always been trouble. You should have just got rid of him when you found out you would be prego with the brat! I hate you Kim, let you and your family rot in hell for this!" They left soon after that, taking the body of their child with them. I looked over at Chris who was crying and didn't even try to defend himself. He was so hurt and broken by want our aunt said to him.

"Christian dear, don't cry..." My grandmother walked over to him and just hugged him. He was crying even more now.

"It's all my fault, I didn't try everything to save him. I'm sorry grandma, I tried." He looked up at our mother who was just in shock and tears running down her face. "Mommy?" As soon as the word left his mouth, she slapped him and hard across the face.

"Don't talk to me you evil child! This is all your fault! I worked for ever to get my sister to talk to me and you fucking ruin it all!" She slapped him again and my dad pulled her away from us.
"Can you take the kids for the night, Kim and I need to have a talk." My grandmother nodded and she picked up Chris and carrying him as he cried even more from being hit the first time in his life that wasn't from a bully but our own mother. I follow behind her as my parents went home fighting.

"I didn't mean to, it's all my fault, I should have moved faster, I should have been there not him." My grandmother rubbed his back trying to calm him down. That whole night she tried to tell him that it wasn't his fault, that he did everything he could to save his cousin. But what she didn't know the damage was done by his mother and aunt. He blamed himself.

*end of Flash back*

"It wasn't until he was 14, four years later after that day happen. He was hanging out with his friends and they decided to start a band, that's why he started dating Liz too. It was a good time for him, but not once did is mother left him forever he was a evil child. She would get drunk and beat the should out of him. Blamed him for everything even if it was milk spilled all over the kitchen." I looked at all of them, just staring at me in shock.

"He had not control over that light falling. It could have killed him, or both of them. It just happen to fall as your cousin was running." Jinxx just looked down and I could tell he all were upset, not about what happen but that Chris got the full blame when he could have died too.

"I know, but Chris hid that from everyone. When it came to the day that was the death of Nick, Chris would not go to school because his friends would always share stories and say that whoever left him die should have their ass beat until the day they die. He kept it hidden from them all this time. And it takes moving away from them to find out that Chris was behind the death of his own cousin. He tried to tell them what happen but Matt always been a ass, and Liz was no better. They started threaten him and everything. But then realized there was a bully picking on him on his facebook account. Matt and Liz seen that and toldthem that he was behind killing a 8 year old. It's why they target him. Then my mom goes all nuts and tries to kill him last night. Stabbed him four times in the stomach until he was coughing on his own blood and then dropped him in a tub full of water to watch him stuck in the water since he was out cold. My dad saved him, Andy's parents help us get the people we needed to help but now Chris lays in a room in a coma and may never wake up again...." I sighed and closed my eyes.

"Do we have to worry about this Matt and Liz people?" Ashley was looking at me. He was ready for a fight if he had to.

"I'm sure news got out what happen last night. It's all over facebook and everything, they just don't know he's a lot but in a coma. They probably thing he's dead and I ratherthem think that. But now you all know why he reacted like he did. He don't like letting new people close to them becuase when they find that out, they blame him too. Another rest why we had to move is because my mom's sister kept attacking Chris, and our cousins would beat him up on daily. So we had to move. Was force to move, yes he loved living in the city but when he realized he wouldn't be hurt other then our mom. He liked it here." I smiled. "You really did make him feel welcome here. He feels bad for how he acted. The last thing he told me was to tell you all he was sorry."

"We already forgave him. We knew it had to be something in LA that happen. It's why I came to you about it." Roku smiled. "We just did as he wished but we always did watch out for him.

"I hope he wakes up soon. He can't be out for good. There is no way someone like him can just be out for good. To deal with a lot of things he had and still be willing to make friends or be happy like he was. He's a strong guy, he'll make it out of it. Anyways, we need to get back to working on our music. We only have a few months. Keep us updated on him." Andy smiles and all the boys love. Ella, Alice, Jess and Cambria all went with their boyfriends, but Roku stay behind with me to make sure that I would be okay. She knew I didn't want to go back near my house fith now. So she made sure that I didn't have to go. But I thought it was time to give her the note.

"Hey, before Chris passed out, he told me to give this to you. I don't know what it said but he wanted me to tell all of you sorry, make sure that Lily was okay and make sure you got this. So here. This is the only thing I didn't do yet and even though he should have told you, you all know his story now." I just pet Lily and she was a really sweet dog. Even with her leg in a cast she was a good dog. I watched as Roku read the letter and she was in tears by the end up it. It made me wonder what my brother said to her. "What was it about?"

"A lot, I want to go see him. Can you take me to the hospital? Andy drove your car here so you didn't have to go back to the house. But can you please take me? Your father put all our names on the guest book to visit him." She smiles softly.

"I can take you but I won't be going with you, I can't see my brother in that mess. But I really want to know what the note said. Chris don't write notes, so it has to be something to write you about." I just looked at her.

"Well that's the thing, It's seem he knew your mom was going to come after him last night. He told me that he was going to say sorry to us, that he needed friends because he couldn't take the being alone anymore. He told me that I was always there for him since the first day that we met and that he sorry he didn't stick with me. Pushing me made him realize he could hurt people and it scared him so he tried to keep away. But now that he's needed us, he didn't want to stay away. But he knew his mom was coming and that he wouldn't last the night. It was the day of Nick's death. She hurt him worse on that day. Please, just take me to the hospital...." She was begging me and I could tell there was more to that letter but she didn't want to say what it was.

"Fine let go then." I smiled and we went to my car and driving off. When I got to the hospital, I left her go in alone. I have this feeling that her and Chris were almost the same personality and right now my brother wanted her there with him. He knew that letter would get her to come to him. He needed a friend and that what he got. Roku always was there, he always talked around her even when they weren't hanging out. She is the one that kept my brother going. I smiled as I waited her get out of the car and run into the hospital. I drove back to her house and I waited for everyone to come back. When they did I told them where she was and they smiled and told me 'you know, she really loves and cares for him.'
