Chapter 4 “ I knew it.” Justin said as he stormed into the room. Lance immediately stood up off the bed. “ You lying sack of shit.” He said as he moved towards Lance. “ What the hell are you talking about Justin?” Lance asked as Justin took a swing at him. “Oh you know.” Justin said as he punched Lance in the nose. “No I don’t.” Lance replied as Justin punched him again this time in his stomach. “Bull Shit Bass.” Justin said as he pushed Lance up against the wall and began to punch him. “Let go of him Justin.” Shelby cried out. “You want me to let him go fine.” Justin said as he let go causing Lance to fall on to the floor. It was then Justin began to kick him. “Stop, Stop.” Shelby cried out as she pressed the help button. “You need something Miss Lynne?” The nurse asked. “Yes Security and a Dr please.” Shelby said as Justin continued to beat Lance. “ Justin leave him alone.” Shelby said as Justin suddenly stopped and went towards her. “ Don’t you ever tell me to what to do ever.” Justin said as he raised his hand and slapped her it was the security made their way into the room. “ Don’t move sure.” The security guard said as he grabbed Justin and guided him out of the room. “Is he ok?” Shelby asked as the nurse kneeled down by Lance. “ I can’t say.” The nurse replied as Dr walked into the room. He paused for a moment before going out in the hall to call for a stretcher. “Please tell me he’s ok.” Shelby pleaded as two more nurses made their way into the room with a stretcher. They lowered it and with the help of the doctor lifted Lance up on it and whisked him off to another room. “Are you ok Miss?” A nurse asked as she looked at the newly formed bruise. “Yes.” Shelby replied as the nurse checked her pulse and her vital signs. “Let me get you some ice for that bruise then.” The nurse said as she left the room. It was then Shelby began to cry. She knew she had to end it with Justin but how? She was afraid Justin would go psycho and do what he did again but only that time it would be worse. Now the one person she needed was hurt and she was scared for him. She was scared that Justin would hurt him again. “ Here you go Miss.” The nurse said as she handed Shelby the ice pack. She quickly let the room. Shelby took the ice and put it on her face but not before she took her 3-carat diamond engagement ring off and set it on the tray next to her. She didn’t need Justin or his abusive ways. She needed a guy like Lance, a guy that cared about her and loved her more then life its self. She drifted off to sleep again with the ice pack on her face. She drifted off to sleep with thoughts of Lance. Thoughts of what her life would be like if she was with him. Her lfie would be perfect, just perfect. Story Index
