11. Abusive Love
Sonata's P.O.V
My head hurts, like I just got hit by a car. It's not the first time something like this has happened before. I want to tell them the truth but I can't or I'll get hurt by him. I guess I should probably explain the situation that's going on.
It all started when high school started. Dusk Shine wasn't always like this. He was actually pretty nice to me before this. Every day when it would just be me and him, he hits me. It's not a playful hit either it hurts to the point where I start to cry. If only I could tell someone but I can't or he'll... well it'll be worse than just hitting me. After about a year I got used to the abuse but that doesn't me I enjoy it. Dusk Shine is a good person it's just that he has dad issues and he uses me as his punching bag. Ever since Dusk Shine joined the Self-Defense club in our second year of high school he got even more violent.
If I tell my sister they'll kill him no questions asked. But if I tell someone like Anon then he'll probably do something like that as well. I just want someone, anyone, to just let it stop. I want to be free, free from the abuse, free from Dusk Shine. I try to think of the pros and cons of my time since I've been with Dusk Shine.
The pros of my time with Dusk Shine were that nobody could mess with me. Anyone that tried to do something to me, he would be there to save me. If any boys tried to make their moves on me he would scare them off. Everyone knows not to mess with Dusk Shine or they'll see Dusk Shine at his scariest like I have multiple times. If only he could do that and not hit me in the progress. But that was all I could come up with for pros since we've been together.
All the cons of my time with Dusk Shine were that there was a lot of hitting. Scars, bruises, cuts and more would always occur when he would hit me. He would normally hit me if I "made a mistake or I did something that he didn't like." I would have to hide them or put on some makeup to cover them up, or just lie and say it was an accident and I caused them myself. I don't like it when I have to lie to the others especially my sisters, the others, and Anon. I've known them for so long but I don't want them to find out about my problems with Dusk Shine and me. I think back to one of the first times Dusk Shine started to abuse me.
Before I knew what happened a punch hit me right to the stomach and then a slap to the face. I was on the ground crying, it hurt so much. He was hitting me because I and quote "said something stupid as always." As if hearing Aria call me stupid all the time was bad. I look up and see an angry-looking Dusk Shine look down at me.
"Please stop, I'm sorry it won't happen again." I said shaking in fear that he looked hit me again.
"You always say that but it still happens." Dusk Shine then grabbed me by my hair then he kicked me in the stomach making me want to throw up. "Why does it happen after I tell you to stop!?" Dusk Shine yelled.
"I-I don't know I'll-" I try to finish but I can't because he starts to yell at me again.
"YOU NEVER KNOW!! IT'S ALWAYS THE SAME THING FROM YOU!!! 'I'm sorry it won't happen again, please forgive me." He said as he tried to mimic my voice. "THEN WHY DOESN'T NOTHING CHANGE!?! DO I NEED TO HIT YOU HARDER SO YOU CAN UNDERSTAND OR WILL YOU STOP BEING SO STUPID FOR ONCE IN YOUR SORRY LIFE!?!"
I was shaking like I just saw a ghost. I was scared to death of Dusk Shine. He keeps yelling and yelling at me sometimes hitting me while he was yelling at me. Finally, he stops hitting and yelling at me and I run to the bathroom. As I run up the stairs and get into the bathroom I close the door. I take out my phone and I start to think about who I should call. One of my sisters? No that'll be the end of Dusk Shine once they see him. Maybe Anon or Sunset possibly Flash? No, they don't even know where I am. And plus they'll take too long to get here. I start to dial Ari's number but before I can Dusk Shine walks into the bathroom. How could I be so stupid I forgot to lock the door? Dusk Shine looks at me then he looks at my phone with Ari's number on it.
Without another second he grabs my arm and takes me downstairs again. He throws me against the wall as hard as he could. He then proceeds to threaten me and tells me if I try to do something like that again or if I did do it he would torture me as much as possible to the point where I would wish I was dead. I remember leaving his house that day and going to my room and crying for the rest of the night. It hurt to know that I couldn't tell anyone about what Dusk Shine had done to me.
Just then my vision starts to come back to me as I finish thinking back to that time. As I open my eyes I see my parents, my sisters, Sunset, Twilight, Flash, and Anon all around in the room. I put my hands to my head.
"Uh, what happened?" I say adjusting to the light.
Your P.O.V
Once me and Flash arrived at the hospital we head into the lobby and ask which number Sonata's room is.
"Room 185, third floor." The employee says.
"Thank you." You said.
You and Flash walk into the elevator and head your way to Sonata's room. Once you guys arrive at the room you saw that you weren't the only ones there. Sonata's parents were there as well as her sisters. Sunset and Twilight were also there looking down at Sonata. I look down at Sonata she looks so innocent just laying there. I look back at Sonata's parents her mom is crying into her husband's chest. While Adagio and even Aria look like they were about to cry themselves. I start to zone out but I get taken out of my trance by hearing someone speak up.
"Uh, what happened?" A voice said.
You look back, it was Sonata! She had finally woken up from her little nap. She looks around the room but before she can say another word her mother grabs her and hugs her crying into her. Even Adagio and Aria run up to her and hug her. The doctor comes into the room saying that Sonata just needs rest but she takes her parents out of the room to talk to them in private. You being a nosey person like you are you decide to listen in as well.
"We took a look at her and all those bruises she has on her body. Well, it seems as though someone caused them, it wasn't no accident." The doctor says.
You knew it! All those bruises on her body, someone did make them! But who? You decide to let it go for now and head to Sonata. "How are you doing Sonata?"
"I'm feeling better. Head hurts but other than that I'm fine." Sonata says looking at you with her normal smile.
You smiled. Even after everything that happened, she was still as happy and bright as ever. "That's good."
Her parents and the doctor walked back into the room. Her parents do not look happy one bit.
"You are free to leave, but you must get a lot of rest." The doctor said.
"Okay, thank you very much." Sonata said with a smile.
The doctor only nodded her head as she walks out of the room. Once she leaves the room Sonata's parents look back at her. They had that parent look in their eyes like they found something and you're in trouble. You knew something was about to go down.
"So would you like to tell us about who is hitting you?" Mrs. Dusk says as he looked at Sonata.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Sonata said as she looked away from her father's glance.
"Those bruises all over your body. The doctors say that someone has caused that to you. Who is harming my daughter?!" Mrs. Dusk yelled.
Sonata stays quiet, you knew she heard but she wasn't answering. She starts to shake like she's hyperventilating and then she starts to cry. Her parents look back at all of us.
"I think you should all give us some time, alone." Mr. Dusk looks back at all of you.
You all nod and walk out of the room. Before the door closes you hear Sonata and her parents talking. You wondered if Sonata was going to answer her mother's question. As you head out of the hospital and into Flash's car all you could think of was who was hurting Sonata. Was it someone else or was it your main target, Dusk Shine? You looked out the window as you wondered.
'Who could be the person that was hitting Sonata?'

You’re gonna get hurt by him anyways. So you might as well tell them.
Is she trying to give this man an excuse?
Just tell someone.
She might as well tell them, though.
Come on, tell them.
He does realize you don’t have to be a detective to figure it out, right?

They'll find out. It's all just coming together, soon enough their find out and it'll be intense when they do.

Oh ok
Hmm, I’m not so sure it was ok to already show what happened with Sonata’s pov. Sure it’s obvious but it just takes away the mystery that as we, the anon has(especially with the last line of the chapter) and makes this story feel less of a connection as anon.
But just a thought on that, looking forward to reading the rest and see where it takes us
