Here It Comes
Part 5
Lindsey remebered waking up in Matt's mom's car, being drivien home. Matt had told her another adult came and found them and called his mom. Lindsey looked wided eyed at him, he shook his head lightly and mouthed "I didn't tell her." Lindsey noded, but stopped sundenly because it hurt her neck too musch. Matt frowned and looked at her pleadingly, but Lindsey shook her head again, despite th pain. Matt sighed and looked down, they didn't talk at all on the ride home. Lindsey didn't know what to say, and Matt didn't want anything to slip out. When the car stpped outside her house Lindsey looked up at Matt with tears in her eyes. "Bye Linsey." He said quietly as he gave her a hug. "Bye,"she said back,"Thanks for the ride home." She closed the car door and her father came running outside. He picked her up, turned and thanked Matt's mom, and walked into the house. Her placed her down on the floor. His faced turned birght red, and he beagne to shake. "NEVER, ever do that again!" He yelled," You made Lynn drive all the way over here! You horrible child!" Lindsey winced as he hit her across the face with his hand," Get upstairs, and into your room!" Lindsey hesitated for a moment. "NOW!" He kicked her in the back as she crawled to the stairs. She walked up them slowly, than ran into her room.

A tear rolled down Lindey's cheek as she thought about that day and all Matt had done for her. She laid her head down in her hands and sat on her computer chair. I have to get that out of my mind, she thought, I know! I'll go on the computer! She leand down and turned on the computer. She hadn't checked her e-mail in a while, so she decided to do that. She barley ever got an e-mail, but she opened up MSN anyway. A little bleep, surprised her, a message poped up saying she had one unread mail message. She opened it, and to her surprise it was from Matt. It read:
Hey Linds!! I was goind through my picture folders and found these and thought of you. I sent 4 I think, anyway, hope you like em! Matt
She opened up the attachment, and sure enough there were four pictures. The first one was her and Matt sitting in his apple tree together at his birthday party. He and Lindsey were eating apples and laughing. But if you ooked closely you could see some cuts and bruises on Lindsey's face. The second one there class picture. Matt had told everyone to put up bunny ears, and sure enough everyone did. Lindsey laughed so hard when they got that picture back. The third was Matt and Lindsey in a canoe that they were trying to tip. They tried and tried, but they were to small, so Matt's dad came it tipped it for them while they were in it. The last was a face shot of Matt and Lindsey eating popsicles in his backyard. Matt had purpe lips and a stain on his shirt. He also had a black eye to match it. Lindsey rembered that earier that day (of the picture), the school bully was giving her a hard time. Matt came up and told him to buzz off and leave her alone. The angry buy had beaten him up, but when the teachers finally pulled him off Matt, he was smiling at Lindsey. She rembered how safe she felt whenever she was around him after that.
Lindsey sat there crying, the message had been sent the day before Matt fell off her fence. She placed her hand over her mouth and shook her head. "Why him?" she sobbed," WHY him?! He hasn't done anything!!!" She was screaming now, she stood up and threw her muddy shoes at the wall. She fell to the floor shaking. At this point she was histerical, screaming and kicking the wall. Soon she quieted down. "All, he wnated to do was help me..." she cried,"I need him so much, why can't, he, be...left...alone?..."
