She wanted to be happy she really did. She would anything and give anything to be happy but she couldn't she just couldn't. She could never have the two things she wants most in this world. Luke and her Freedom. She will never be free as long as her father is alive. She will never be free and she will never be able to get away along as her father still had control over her. She hated that about her life. She would give anything for her freedom. She was nervous to have said what she said in the Time Capsule about Luke and her Father. She was really wishing she hadn't said what she said. If someone saw that she could be in a lot of trouble for saying something like that on there. She was scared that a principal was going to watch it but she knew that it was against the rules of the times capsules so she knew that they wouldn't do that.
She looked over at Luke heard what he said and looked down to see the bruise that was showing. She remembered that bruise but she remembered ever bruise that she has on her body. She remembers ever mark she ever put on her body purposely. She remembered ever time that her father hit her or beat on her. The bruise that he saw was the other night and it was because she had laughed in his pressence over something that she had saw on Tv. He didn't like that she sounded like her mother and he took a beer bottle that was near him and broke in on her back. He had actually craved into her back with the broken glass. If she had lifted her shirt more then they would have been seen. They would seen and she would have to explain and that was something she wasn't looking forward to. "Yea you know I can't stop fighting." She said really fast and not sound sincere at all. She started fiddling with her camera changing the look and stuff with it hoping that Luke hadn't caught that mix up when she didn't sound like she meant what she was saying.

for some reason Luke's head told him something was wrong, with the way she answered him to the way she began to 'fix' her camera. "Eden...you sure everything's alright? you know im here for you...so if you wanna talk we can...you know me" he said with a soft voice but held a serious tone. it was almost as if she held a deep secret she was too afraid to let out...

She looked up at him and saw how sincere he was being but she just couldn't tell him. He would go into overprotective mode which is something that he did very often when a guy would talk to her or such. He was like an older brother overprotective. She loved that about him because most of the guys just wanted to get into her pants she could read in it on their faces and she was glad to have Luke. She just wasn't sure taht she could have him help with this. Luke was the tough guy that thought that he could take on anything and she was worried that he could get hurt.
She looked at him and smiled. "Its fine I can handle it Luke." He said. She just didn't want to see Luke get hurt she couldn't handle something like that. She cared about Luke to much. She smiled her most convincing smile. "If it gets out of hand I will tell you I promise Luke." She said walking over. "What do you want to do now?" She asked him resting her head on his shoulder.

She nodded her head and wrapped an arm around his waist and hugged him tigthly. She was shaking slightly tears were gathering in her eyes threatening to fall down her cheeks. She was scared about what could happen. She didn't want to see something happen to Luke if she told him. She knew that Luke would do that. "I promise" She whispered to him.
She looked around the Courtyard to see how many people who were there and there weren't anyone there. She sighed and looked down. She thought about what she said in the Time caspule and she was scared if he ever saw that. She sighed thinking that he wouldn't even be able to see that. She wasn't sure how she felt. He had alway been so kind to her. She sighed and rested her head back on his shoulder.

with his arms still wrapped around her, Luke felt her body shake in his grip. "Eden...tell me whats going on...please" he asked in soft voice. "i can tell because your shaking...dont like to me and say everythings alright..." he gave a slight sigh. "we can get through it together alright?"

She looked up at him tears gathering in her eyes. She sighed and looked down. She couldn't lie to him. She thought about what she could tell him. It wouldn't be complete lie. It just wouldn't be the complete truth. She pulled up at her shirt some to show the full bruise that was on the side of her stomach. It looked exactly like a fist print. She let a tear or two fall down her cheeks. She didn't know how to start so she just spilled it out
"My dad a few nights ago had a little to much to drink and he got angry at me because my camera had been busted and he punched me in the side. Its nothing to bad though it just hurt a lot when he did it. He swore he wouldn't do it again through." She said to him. That actually had been the truth she just didn't show him the other side of her stomach where 3 bruised ribs where from where he had kicked her on that side of her stomach.

Luke's jaw dropped slightly at the stroy being told to him. he chuckled to himself as he looked down at the ground and just stood there shaking his head "he can't do that...even if it was the first time...its going to be the only time once im through with him!" Luke's voice went serious as he gave an angry look and backed away from her as he was going to settle it now...not later. Luke began to walk away from Eden and to his car where he would drive to her home and fight her dad

Eden looked down when he chuckled some. She wondered why he was chuckling was her father hurting her something funny. She sighed but was shocked from what she heard him say and then from him getting up. She watched him start for his car but she had to stop him she couldn't let him go through with this her father would kill him. He was a Master Gungery Sergeant in the Us Marine Coor. He's retired now but he still had his fighting and training technics which is how he was able to hit her in places were people couldn't see.
She jumped up and ran after him. "LUKE! Please don't this it was it won't happen again he swore it wouldn't happen please don't. Please don't I dont' want to see anything happen to you Luke please." She said holding his arm and looking him in the eyes pleading with him to not go to his car and to her house. "Please he's not home now anyways he's at work. I am pretty sure he said he had a case today so he is in the courthouse. If you go there you will get arrested. Luke please I don't want you to get arrested. She looked him in the eyes trying to get him to listen. "Please Luke." She whispered out on the verge of tears.

Luke was halfway to his car until he felt her grip around his arm. turning to face her, he saw the look in her eyes. "so your telling me that this was the first and only time?" he asked looking into her eyes as he was getting angry knowing that Eden was being hurt and Luke didnt know what to do

She looked into his eyes and she cursed herself for this. She cursed herself for telling him anything at all. She was a bitch she was a big flipping bitch but she had to protect this secret. She couldn't let Luke know that there had been more times she couldn't let him know that this has been going on since she was about 10 or 11 years old. She knew he wouldn't understand even though he would do this to her he was still her father and he had his good days as well. He had days when he was the father he was suppose to be. He had days when he would hug her and tell her he loves her. She couldn't lose that if she lost that she would have to go live with someone else and she couldn't do that.
She looked him straight in his eyes and nodded her head. "Yes this was the first and only time." She said complete confidence and no lie in her eyes or voice. Even the toughest person wouldn't have been able to figure out that she was lying. She hated herself for lying to him but she had to she had to protect him. Her father would have murdered him if Luke had gone to his office. Hopefully today would be a good day and she would have her father that she was suppose to have. "So what do you want to do now?" She asked him the sparkle back in her blue eyes.

She shrugged her shoulders to. She thought about what they could do. She tried to think of something. She sighed and looked down. "We could play tag" She said laughing and tagged him running away. She couldn't help but giggle from this. She remembered in Middle school when they would play that game together just them and his best friend Ethan. She had to admit that Ethan was very good looking and she couldn't help but feel attracted to him. But he would never be interested in her so she didn't tell anyone how she felt as well.

She could feel his presence behind her and she ran away from him giggling some. Something about Luke whether it would be that protective side of him or the side that made her happy but something about Luke made her giggle. She didn't understand it but something about Luke made her giggle. Truthfully she wouldn't be caught dead giggling for pretty much anyone else. She only ever giggled when she was around Luke, Craig and Jerry. Everyone else got a laugh but she didn't giggle.
She liked running around and she had a belt on today one of her three studded belts white. She dodged Luke here and there. She was getting tired and she knew that it would only be a matter of time before Luke caught her.
