finally had enough ,

Cover up with makeup in the mirror tell yourself, it's never gonna happen again You cry alone and then he swears he loves you. Do you feel like a man when you push her around? Do you feel better now as she falls to the ground? Well I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end as your lies crumble down, a new life she has found. A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect every action in this world will bear a consequence If you wade around forever, you will surely drown I see what's going down. I see the way you go and say you're right again, say you're right again. Heed my lecture.

Nathalie had officially had enough. She was finally tired of the bullshit she was living with in her life... well, that and Eddy had somehow found out that Nathalie was in fact still dating Carter and he made sure to lay on the guilt thick and threatened to lock her in his basement if she didn't. Typically she wouldn't believe him or just threaten to outrun him but then he threatened to get his scary cousin involved and anything related to the thing that was Eddy Monroe had to be frightening. She had to calculate the breakup carefully. The girl just wanted to be free from her abusive relationship, not dead, too. Public would have to be her only option; he wouldn't hurt her in front of a bunch of people, would he? Well, she was counting on that factor when she sent him a text to meet her in front of her house that morning so they could go hang out at the park. That was how she found herself nervous, in the middle of Middletown park in the most crowded place she could find. She shivered slightly and wondered why she hadn't decided to wear a coat because it was considerably colder in New York than it had been in Kansas. Tugging at the bottoms of her sweater sleeves, she turned to look at Carter and started off, voice shaking slightly from the nerves, "Uh, Carter. Look. It's been nice having you here and everything but you lied to me. You're not better, you're the same person you were a year ago, if not worth. I'm not interested in staying in a relationship with someone who is going to hurt me. So I think maybe you should go back to Kansas." Turning on her heel, she went to walk away, thinking that it was a sufficient enough break up on her part. Unfortunately it hadn't been for Carter because he grabbed for her wrist and whipped her back around, "Are you... breaking up with me?" He seethed, twisting her wrist in his large hands with too much force. Her bones were already vulnerable due to the absence of fat on her arms and she could feel the pain in her wrist becoming more and more strong as he applied more force, twisting her wrist even further around. "Yes, now stop--ow fuck. Stop it Carter, you're going to break my wrist," she told him and he finally used the last bit of force needed to snap her wrist in his hands. The crack fell upon her ears and she clenched down hard on her jaw to keep from screaming out. She'd broken bones before, but it didn't change the fact that it hurt more than just about any other pain Carter had inflicted on her. He glared at her and tossed her arm down and she clenched down again as her wrist flopped. "You're such a stupid fucking bitch, Nathalie. You can't break up with me, you need me." And he pulled back and punched her face as hard as he possibly could, "Now come on, we're going back to my place." He took hold of her non-broken wrist and gave a tug, though Nathalie tried resisting, pulling back. "No, I'm not going with you," she told him firmly as he continued to tug and Nathalie looked around at all of the people around her that weren't paying attention to what was going on around them so she decided to test her luck and yelled out, "Help, anyone?" before Carter's spare hand clamped over her mouth.

It was cold outside but Sebastian didn't really mind. This was perfect running weather, New York during Christmas time was truly a beautiful sight to see. Those trusty Beats were on his ears while Drake and other popular rappers blasted and kept him pumped up. The day had started off pretty well and there was nothing like a good run to keep the sentiment going.

Just because he was running doesn't mean he just wore some tattered sweats and no-name trainer. Sebastian took pride in his appearance as always, with fresh Nike Air Maxes that cost over $150 with a Nike sweatshirt and sweatpants to match. It was impossible for him to have a off day. It was impossible for him to not look hot. The flirty glances from women and girls of all ages didn't tell him any different as Seb cut through Middleton Park as the run was coming to an end.

By the time Sebastian got to the middle of the park, he decided to have some water before finishing the rest of the way home. Better safe than sorry. Seb paused his iPod and moved his headphones to his neck before sitting on the nearest empty bench he found. The quick rest allowed him to survey all the people at Middleton. Most of the faces were unfamiliar but he spotted one in the crowd that wasn't foreign at all. Nathalie was there and seemed to be standing by herself but then again, there were a lot of people in his line of view.

Sebastian got up to go talk to her. A conversation with Nattie was never a bad thing, unless she was reprimanding him for being an asshole to other assholes in his opinion(99% of the time the person was ginger and weird, ring any bells?). As he got closer and manuvered around the crowd, it was seen that she was talking to someone. Sebastian didn't recognize the guy but since they were standing pretty close, he decided to not intrude and turn back around. Then he heard the crack and froze in his footsteps. Maybe it was a twig or something.

Then, she called out screaming for help and Sebastian immediately ran back to help Nat. The bastard was pulling her with his hand clamped over her mouth. Seb pulled him off of her and socked him in the nose. All he could see was red. That asshole put his hands on his friend, his Nathalie, his sister he'd never had but always wanted. It was already horrible to lay hands on a woman but touching that one was a definite no-no.

He looked over at the twisted angle of her wrist and hit him again one good time in the jaw., hopefully breaking it before holding him by the neck. "I don't know who the fuck you think you are but don't you ever lay hands on her, look at her, or even breathe her air anymore, got it asshole? I swear I'll kill you." Sebastian wasn't usually violent but family stood up for each other. At least the good ones did.

Nathalie breathed out a sigh of relief when the familiar head of hair popped up into her vision in a flash. Someone was helping her and it was someone she knew. A hushed "Seb" fell from her lips as Carter took a surprised step back when the older boy boy popped up out of no where. She could feel Carter's grasp being ripped off of her and stood there, wide eyed as she observed the scene playing out right before her eyes. Natty didn't know what else to do except for watch as Sebastian hauled off and punched him right in the nose. Sebastian turned to her and she opened her mouth to say something but she wound up letting out a noise of discomfort due to the pain in her wrist. Her eyes started to well up with tears but she didn't want to cry in front of Sebastian because that would be uncool. Before she could stop anything else from happening, Sebastian hit Carter again, the jaw this time, and she winced as her older brother figure grabbed her now -ex- boyfriend by the neck and started yelling at him and I swear I'll kill you. She nursed her broken wrist closer to her body, moving forward so she could try and break up the two. All she needed was for Sebastian to get into trouble for fighting with Carter. Her frame fit between the two bodies as she moved Sebastian's hands away, and actually intercepted a fist being swung from Carter with her good hand, "Carter. I think you've done enough here. You know my parents aren't going to let me not press charges against you this time. Listen, alright? I know deep down inside you're a sweetheart and so calm and caring... but you have problems, Carter. You need help. Some day you're going to want to make someone the happiest woman in the world and you have to be able to control your anger and emotions. I know the Carter that's locked inside by your personal issues, he is the one I fell in love with, remember? Just... go back to Kansas and get help, okay? And leave me out of it. We just weren't meant for each other or it would have worked out." The girl watched a multitude of feelings flash across brown eyes before he nodded, removing his balled fist from the cup of her hand and pressed a kiss into her palm.And with that, he turned and walked away. It was Nathalie's turn to turn around now and she hugged Sebastian in possibly the most awkward way possible because she didn't want to put pressure on her broken wrist. Leaning up onto the tips of her toes she feathered the smallest of kisses onto his cheek and let go of the hug, rubbing at her eyes, trying to ignore the pulsating pain that rippled up her arm and all through her body, "Thanks for saving me, Seb. Who knows what he would have done had you not shown up to be my hero." That was true. Sebastian had came at just the right time and she was forever grateful that her older-brother figure had in fact kept Carter from hurting her any more... or any longer, "I don't know what I'd do without you sometimes, Seb. You're an ass sometimes but I'll make sure to remember this day when I'm giving you a hard time," she managed to grit out before she looked down to her wrist, "but um. I feel like I should probably go get this looked at."

Sebastian attempted to control his temper but couldn't. His anger was consuming him and blood pounded through his ears so all he heard was Help over and over, louder with every hit he took to the other boy. Out of the corner of his eye he could see Nathalie. She probably didn't like watching this but her whimper angered him even more. Who the fuck did this guy think he was? When Seb held the boy by the neck, he could see her eyes becoming glassy. He really did hate to see her in pain.

His eyes widened in alarm when she got in the middle of the fight. Was she stupid? Suicidal even? Just when he thought, Natty was going to take a punch to the face, she caught it. Maybe she did know what she was doing. She started talking and Sebastian smirked in triumph. Surely, Nathalie was going to give this Carter guy a good tongue lashing. Slowly, his face morphed into pure confusion. Sweetheart? Caring? He didn't know it was possible to say those words with a straight face while you looked at your broken wrist. Even so, Nathalie Griggs had sweet talked her attacker.

Death glares were shot at Carter when his kissed her palm and left. Exactly what kind of fucked up relationship was this? Seb's face softened when Natty attempted to hug him the best she could and kissed his cheek. Although he'd prefer her not risking hurting herself further, it was a sweet gesture. Because she was shorter, he kissed her forehead and returned the awkward hug. Even though he was an only child, he felt more like a big brother than he ever had. It was a good feeling. "I'm no hero but I'll always have your back. Even when I question your reaction like that whole self-empowerment speech you gave that guy, I'll still have your back. But seriously, what was up with that?"

Fate brought him to the park at the right time. He could've decided not to break and went around the park's edges. Or he could've left his headphones on, restricting him from hearing Natty's cry for help. Everything that happened to him was a coincidence but for a reason. "Yes, please do remember that the next time you berate me for insulting deserving gingers. And of course you wouldn't know what to do without me. I am pretty awesome." Seb smirked before redirecting his attention to her wrist. "Yes, you should. To the hospital we go." And with that, Sebastian got his stuff off the bench and they began walking out of Middletown Park.
