I'm driving to Sky's house. I need advice from Sky, about Hazel

I knock on the door. Nobody answers. It's like nobody lives here beside her. Her mom comes home late and Sam is almost never here

I go in because I know Sky is here. I head upstairs. I go in her room. I forgot to nock

I see Sky curled up, holding a pillow and music playing from her phone. I can't see her face because her hair is covering it.

"You okay" I ask sitting next to her

When she heard my voice she jumped. I quickly grab her into my arms
She starts crying silently. She looks so scared

"What wrong? Are you hurt?" I ask concerned

She says nothing

"Hey, you know you can tell me anything"

A few seconds go by

"I lied. I lied when I said that I don't have truma. I lied when I said said it's because of what happened at the party why it was triggering to kiss Henry. I lied" Sky says with a few voice cracks

She looks so scared

"No one knows this, but before my dad left. My mom used to leave me with him. My brother loved shopping so he would always go with her when she went somewhere and I was left alone, with him" Sky is shaking. "So when they left, my dad would come looking for me in my room" she looks up to me. Our eyes lock "Kai, he would do awful things to me. And when I didn't want to, he would hurt me. I used to hide. When he couldn't find me, he would take his belt and smack it on a bunch of things and it would make loud noises"

She cries in my shoulder, holding me super tight.

"I heard loud noises outside and I just-" Sky says but I cut her off

"Shhh. You don't need to explain anymore than you already did." I say and hold her as tight as I can.

My poor girl.

I feel so guilty for not knowing. That man should pay. He should suffer in endless pain

"I'm here. Every single time your home alone, come to my house okay?"

She nods her head

"Why did you come over?" Sky asks.

She whipes her tears away

"Oh we can talk about it later" I say

"No. Now. Please" Sky begs me

"Fine. Hazel broke up with me"

"What? That fast?" Sky says shocked

"Yeah, she said I'm not as fun as she thought I was" I say while looking down

"Not as fun?"

"She thought I was gonna have sex with her every night when we're together, but I want to actually be in a committed relationship. You're the one who put it in my head" I smile

"I know she's my best friend, but that's messed up what she did. I'm sorry" Sky says, then gives me a hug

I hug her back, then pull away

"But do you think I should've?" I ask

"Should've what?"

"Should've had sex with her every night when I was with her, maybe until she actually wanted to be as committed as I want to be?"

"NO! If she thought you were gonna have sex every night, then she only liked you because she thought you would have sex with her" Sky says

She sounds like a strict mother. She's so adorable.

The only good thing I find out of the break up is that I can think about Sky without feeling guilty

Wait... nevermind. She has a boyfriend.

I put my hands on her cheeks and look her in the eyes
"Look. Your dad isn't coming back okay? I mean he got his karma. He died" I say

She just smiles
