Pete was just sitting there. Fear ridden, just letting the past events run in his head... "my mom is dead.... my mom is dead and i am stuck with him..." Pete thought to himself. He numbed himself from everything going on. The one thing that scared him is what his dad just did. He attempted to beat him to a pulp. He cringed at the thought...
Pete walked into his house, well was bought to the house by the cops. He looked like he had been crying, something happened. Something not right. "What the hell did you do?" Were the first words out of his mouth. Pete hated him... hate every thing about him. The way he drank, the way everything was his fault. The stench of whiskey filled the dark air. "Shes dead..." Pete mumbled in a kind of way... "Who is dead?" He asked, his voice as cold as ice. Pete just looked up at him, "My mother is dead..." He spat out, which cause the first hit to his face.
"What did you do to her Pete? Stabbed her like i should of?" He said as he grabbed Pete by the shirt collar. "We were driving." Pete said, emotion in his voice. "Oh, you were driving weren't you?" The man spoke as if he was a god. Pete hated it, he always acted like god. But he was no god, he couldn't build one and give it a face. He was a man of nothing.
"I was..." Pete said, fear in his voice. "Well, i guess that means i will be pressing charges wont it?" Then he hit him again, on the back of the head. All he could see was stars, and here a ringing that would haunt him. Pete's father had many ways of hurting him, one was his belt. He would just whip him on the back with it over and over, till it caused scars. Hence why Pete was so self conscious, he never went out during the summer because of it. And that is what his dad did. Beat him with it till he begged for it to stop. And his dad just left him there...
Pete then got up and ran to the hospital, just running. Never wanting to return...
And that thought would haunt him forever. He called one person he needed the most. Lindsay, just hoping she would come... hoping she would come save him.
((okay, blue is obviously my dad and the white text is a flash back, yup)

Lindsay was sitting in her room wacthing the TV. She had her plaid pajama bottoms on and a black tank. She had just gotten back from tanning on the beach, but then the sun set and she came in. She turned her cell phone on awhile ago, but couldn't remeber where in the world she put it. Which happened to be an issue when it began to vibrate. "Grr." she mumbled.
When she finally found it under the cushion of her couch, there was a voice mail. It was Pete. She smiled when she saw the number and flipped it open to call voice mail. When she heard that he was in the hospital, her first thoughts were 'Pete, what did your father do?'. She immediatly threw her hair in a sloppy mess of a bun, if it could even be called that and slid into some black flip-flops that had cherrys on them. She pressed the elevator button. Not fast enough. She ventured down the stairs before hopping into her mini cooper and leaving for the hospital.
--
When she finally reached the hospital, she pulled up into the parking space in the emergency room section and turned the car off. She jumped out and walked as fast as she could to the hospital entrance. She walked to the front desk, "Where can I find Pete Starintino?" she asked with a small huff. The nurse told her and pointed to the direction of the room.
Sure enough, when she reached the room, there was Pete in a hospital bed. "Pete." she said, going over to his side, "What happened?" She looked at how scarred up he was. She had not a doubt it was his father now. But there were some other things that even his father couldn't do.

Pete just shook, not saying anything at first. But feeling a small wave of safety take him over when he saw Lindsay. "My mom... I killed her... killed her." He said in a sad mumble. Pete did not mean to kill his mother, he was driving, she was ill. He crashed... "My dad, he has me now... can't... can't go." He said holding back tears of anger and pain. "He did it again." He said looking at her with a black eye. "He called the cops on me, said i killed perpously... I didn't kill her on purpose... Didn't mean to..." Pete said finally tears streaming down his painful features. Wishing it was all a dream.
"If they catch me they will take me... I'm just going to let them." He said not ever wanting to see his father again, "I wish it was him in the car, i wish he died... i wish he was gone."

"Aww, Pete." she said sitting on the bed next to him and giving him a hug. "It'll be alright. It was an accident. And I will not let you go back to your father." she sighed and looked at Pete. She felt so bad. He had just gone through a lot. She felt tears stream down her face. His mother was the only thing that kept Pete sain. She hugged him again, not planning on letting go anytime soon. She crossed her legs on top the bed and let go from the hug. She looked around and at all the hospital equitment. She hated hospitals. They were only full of misery and....blood. She really didn't like blood all that much. She just tryed to keep off the subject and look at Pete.

When she hugged him he felt safe. Something he hasent felt in the longest time, usualy it was just fear and hate but with her, he felt ,like nothing could touch him. "I need to go back with him... they'll make me." He said wondering what he could do, how he could avoid this man he wish was dead... and he needed his mother, the one person he would do anything for, and he killed her.

"No they won't. You'll see. Even if you have to run from police, your not going back to that man." she said comforting him. She gave him a smile letting him know that everythiung was going to be okay. Her problems seemed so...childish compared to his right now. "You should get some rest. You know you need it." she said.

Pete noded and just layed back on the bed. He just rememberd the days of sleeping untill 3 in the afternoon, sleeping was the only thing that got him away from his problems, letting dreams fill his mind. But tonight was diffrent he couldent even close his eyes, there was to much fear.
"I need to say something to him..." Pete said knowing he just couldent leave. "And what if i the cops come here and get me Linds... i didint mean to kill her... I loved her..." Pete just wanted this nightmare to end...

"I know you did. Your in a hospital bed Pete. They can't just arrest you from here." she said. Maybe that wuld give him the littlest bit of comfort. "Pete, go to sleep. You need sleep. Everything will be okay. I can't promise you that, but what I can promise is that I'm never going to let anyone hurt you." She gave him a slight grin and stood up. She was planning on staying here through the night, althought visitor hours were long over.

Pete looked at Lindsay and gave her a sad smile. He closed his eyes, trying to find a trace of sleep in his mind. He was in peace, a place between sleeping and awake. He didint feel a thing, he could here everything though, but he didint move. He liked the dark sucking him in, he like being numb not needing to know anything...

Lindsay smiled as he fell asleep. She headed for a chair near the window and stared out at the highway. At the cars speeding down. She rested her elbow on the armrest of the chair and then laid her head in her hand. She closed her eyes, but didn't fall asleep. She needed to recount. Okay. She thought about everything that had happened over the past few weeks. Disaster. She sighed and opened her eyes back up. What to do now? There was no way she was getting to sleep at this point.

Pete was now dreaming. It was not a dream, a nightmare, he was in the car agian with his mother. But he was in the back seat watching it all, how he fliped the car, watching her take her last breath. He felt traped he couldent get out of the nightmare.
He was screaming for someone to come and help him, anyone. But his screams were not heard, he saw the scene over.
Pete sat up and grabed his hair, rocking back and forth, "Lindsay..." He said, almost in tears, he was never going to get over this... never.

"Huh?" Pete was obviously having a VERY bad nightmare, because he looked so stressed out. She got up and went back over next to him, "Pete, stop stressing. It was an accident. You didn't mean to kill her. Things happen. Its life." She gave him another hug. "Pete, I know this is tough. I know. I know how it feels to lose a loved one. It will be okay. Your mom wouldn't want you to be like this. She would only want you to be safe. Now try and get some sleep." she said crossing her legs under her. Why was it so hard to help him, comfort him? She really wanted to promise him everything would be fine. But she couldn't. She knew everything would be horrific and unsafe. But she couldn't do anything but give him a hug and tell him that everything would be fine. even though those words gave little comfort. To anyone.

"No it wont... i have come to the conclusion that life is worse then i thought..." He said not angry, not mad... just in a normal tone. "I can't stay here anymore..." He added just wanting to get up and run, run away from everything that was haunting him. Pete looked at Lindsay, she was trying... and he was thanfull. Nothing was going to make the pain go away, he killed her, he would have to live with ti the rest of his life. "I shouldent of drove... she wanted to. For some odd reason i wanted to prove i could... she was sick though... sick everything.
"I should just turn myself in... i have enough guilt to look like it was on pupous." He said doubting every part of himself at that moment, wondering why he disturubed the universe.
then the person he hated most stormed in... it was him... the man who wanted Pete dead. He looked at Lindsay, "Go..." He said, his voice slight with fear and anger.

Lindsay listened and was about to respond when a very angry man stormed in. Pete told her to go. "No." she whispered back. She stood up and stood in front of Pete. She nudged him in the foot, trying to tell him to press the button for medical help. Didn't work. The man approached and Lindsay stood confident in front of his bed. There was no way she was letting him hurt Pete. Even if that meant she would be hurt in the process.

"Oh is this your little girlfriend? She is pretty..." The man Pete hated said in a deranged voice. Pete gave him eyes of the most evil soul. He noticed scissors next to his bed, they used it to cut the stitches. Pete saw his fathers hand move to Lindsays shoulder. "DON'T TOUCH HER!" Pete screamed, and stabbed his dad right in the arm. He jumped off the bed as if there was a fire, and stood in front of Lindsay...
"YOU..." The man said with venom. He started going after Pete, Pete pressed the medical emergency button before he knew it, nurses and doctors saw what was going on, Pete held on to Lindsay.
