Let me be the one to save you.

***Michelle's pov***

The bell rang, time for lunch. I'm gonna go sit with Jaimy, Gerard and Frank. Mikey, Ray and Kate will probably be there too. I feel really guilty for ignoring them the last week, Jaimy must be pissed. We normally hang out all the time and I hadn't even talked to her. I don't think I feel like telling the whole story again though, I hope they won't ask too many questions. It was easy telling everything to Frank, but that's probably because he's a really good listener. And well, I was crying my eyes out at the end so I don't think it's a good idea to do that all over again.

I walked over to their table. Gerard noticed me first and waved happily at me, I gave him a big smile back. He was about to say something, when Jaimy saw me. “MICHELLE!” She basically attacked me. She almost hugged me to death. When I was finally able to breath again, she suddenly looked very angrily at me. “I missed you, you little fuck!” She screamed. “Uh, missed you too..” “Why didn't you talk to us? Are you alright? What was wrong? Are you even-” Gerard interrupted her. “Jesus Jaim, can't you do this another time?” He walked over to me and gave me a hug. “We all missed you. Now sit down and have fun with us, before Jaimy opens her mouth again.” He said. Jaimy punched his arm and Gerard kissed her. “Get a room!” Frank said. I sat down and said hi to Frank, Ray, Mikey and Kate. I noticed Mikey had his arm around Kate's shoulders, the things you miss when you ignore everyone for more than a week.

“It was fun yesterday, wasn't it?” Frank said with his mouth stuffed with food. “It really was, thanks again.” I said with a smile. Jaimy's eyes widened. “WHAT? So you hung out with Frank but not with me?!” Oh god. Frank laughed. “Duh I'm hotter than you.” He said. I rolled my eyes. “No seriously Jaim, I kinda forced her you know, yesterday when I told you guys I was going to talk to her. And you should be happy, look I totally cured her! She's smiling and looking all pretty again!” Was he serious? Where did that come from? “Well, she doesn't look like a zombie anymore, right!” He then added. I gave him a sarcastic look. “Well thanks Frank.” Jaimy looked confused at me. “Well anyway, we're hanging out this afternoon Michelle! Let's go to your house after school.”

*** Later that evening ***
I came home from Jaimy's house and saw that nobody was home. I guess mom was still at Jason's. I looked for some food and found a pizza which I threw in the oven. When it was done, I grabbed the pizza, sat on the couch and watched some TV. I hadn't been able to chill like this for some time now, it's really peaceful not having my drunk mom and Jason around. I hope she stays there a little longer. I felt my phone buzzing in my pocket and pulled it out. I had a text from Frank. It read: “Hey, I'm bored. Wanna hang out?” I sent him a text back saying he could come over. He answered that he would bring 2 guitars with him.

I was still watching TV when I heard the door bell ring a little later. Wow, Frank has gotten here quite fast. I stood up and opened the door. But it wasn't Frank. It was Jason, and he was alone. “Hey sugar.” He said. I tried to slam the door in his face but he put his foot between the door so I couldn't close it. He pushed me away and walked inside. “Are you alone, sugar?” I didn't answer him. I was terrified. I tried to run to the door but he picked me up and slammed me against a wall. He put one hand on either sides of my head making it hard for me to escape from him. He leaned in and aggressively pressed his lips on mine, he stuck his tongue into my mouth and I couldn't do anything about it. I tried to push him away or kick him but he was a lot stronger than me. He grabbed my butt and I screamed at him telling him to fuck off. He only laughed at my screaming and now tried to unbutton my jeans. I gave him a good kick that made him stop for a few seconds. When he was about to pull my pants down, I heard someone walk in. “MICHELLE!” I heard a familiar voice scream. I couldn't see who it was, but as soon as he/she saw us, he ran to us and pushed Jason away from me. It was Frank. Ofcourse, we were supposed to hang out.

When Jason saw who had pushed him, he punched Frank in the face. I screamed and I was crying loudly. Frank pushed Jason down at the ground and sat on top of him punching him back. I quickly pulled out my phone and showed it to Jason. “If you don't walk out now as quickly as you can, then I will call the cops now. GO!” Frank stood up, roughly pulled Jason up and basically threw him out of the house. When he was gone I ran over to Frank, hugged him as tightly as I could and cried. “T-thank you s-so much.” I said in between sobs. He just held me close to him, not saying anything.

He lifted me up and placed me on the couch. He was silent for a couple minutes, I was still crying. Then he spoke up. “I'm not going to let you stay here alone anymore. Until your mother comes back, you're staying with me.” I shook my head. “N-no, you don't have t-to. And what about your p-parents?” He looked me in the eyes. I noticed he had tears in his eyes. “I'm not going to let that guy hurt you again. Ever.” I totally forgot that Jason had punched Frank really hard. I quickly walked to the kitchen and wrapped some ice in a towel. I walked back and put it against his face. “Thanks. If you don't want to stay with me, I'll just stay here. You can choose.” I didn't want Frank to be here if my mom, with or without Jason, comes home. My crying had stopped a little. “Are you s-sure your m-mom will be okay with me staying over at y-your house? And wouldn't it be really w-weird. I can ask J-jaimy too” I said. “My mom won't mind. I just want you to be safe. You could stay at Jaimy but that would mean you would have to tell her everything, you know that right?” He was right. “I will stay with you.” He nodded. I hugged him and thanked him again for saving me. I was still shaking. I had to fought back the urge to walk to the bathroom and throw up when I thought back of Jason sticking his tongue into my mouth. Frank was totally absent, I didn't see any emotion in his face at all. He just held me and said nothing anymore.

Notes

So, Frank is Michelle's saviour and is going to let her stay with him.
Let's just hope that Jason won't find a way to get to Michelle again.
