Persecute

*Keona*

Why would Harry stand up for me? Why is he going against Adriana? None of this is making any sense at all.

"Thanks for driving me home Zayn." I said once he pulled up to my new foster home.

His face was uneasy, "Mhm."

"Zayn- what's wrong?'

"About two houses down is Adriana's house. At the end of the block is Harry's." He whispered.

"Great." I muttered.

"Sorry, again Keona. They're all just jerks. Please don't hurt yourself over this." His eyes were pleading.

"I won't Zayn," I assured him, "I promise."

I kissed his cheek as a thank you, then waved to him one last time before he drove off. I walked into my new home.

"Ron? Marvel? I'm home!" I called.

"Oh- hey Keona." Ron said from the kitchen.

My nerves kicked in, "W-where is Mar-Marvel."

"Oh, she's at work." He smirked.

"O-oh." I mentally shot myself for stuttering.

"Now," He walked up to me and caressed my cheek, "Let's start what you really came here for."

(The Next Day

*Harry*

I saw Keona walking up to school- looking horrible. Not trying to be mean- she's pale and a bit jumpy. She looks like she's in a lot of pain. I walked up to her, wanting to talk to her. I hope I don't regret this later on...

"Hey Keona." She jumped at my voice- see what I mean? She's acting jumpy.

She looked at me with shock written all over her face, probably not expecting me to talk to her.

"Why-why're yo t-talking to m-m-me?" she stuttered.

"I was just wondering what's wrong. You're pale and look like your in pain."

"Why w-would you s-say that?" She whispered, sitting on a bench.

"You're limping, Keona. And," I moved her sweater a bit off her shoulder, "You have a giant fucking bruise on your neck in the shape of a hand print. What happened?"

She looked down and started sobbing. For the first time in forever (Holy shit- cue the Frozen music) I felt bad for her. I knelt to her level and gently rubbed her cheek- but she flinched. I realized that I was rubbing away makeup, and continued what I was doing. She had another bruise on her cheek. Now I'm just a bit scared.

"Keona- what happened?"

"N-Nothing," She breathed, "I just got a new foster home."

"What did they do to you?" I growled.

"N-nothing."

"Keona." I said a bit softer, "C'mere."

I pulled her by her wrist to the side of the school so we could talk in privacy.

"What happened?" Her face was uneasy, "I promise you. I'm done with Adriana's pranks. I know when to stop- it took me awhile to realize it but I did, right?'"

She took a deep breath and muttered something- then tears ran down her pale cheeks.

"What?" I asked.

"My n-new foster d-dad," She whispered, "He r-raped me."
