“STOP!” Bed bouncing.
Staring at the wall, suddenly hears sniffling, felt tears hit her chest and whimpering out, “You were my girl”, crying, thrust slow and silent listening to him cry.
Morning come, Ella endured a pure night of anguish which lasted since Sebastian was drunk, and agony lasted longer.
Rolled over in Ella’s bed, grabbed his head, saying, “Aw my splitting head”, and looked around.
Put hand over his face saying, “Aw man, I thought, it was just a bad dream, I really did that to Ella”.
Sleeping on the sofa and just fell asleep, very upset and heartbroken over what Sebastian done to her last night. Walking out into the living room holding his head, saw Ella asleep on the couch and tears rolled down his face, quietly said, “Never again pretty baby my days of acting like a monster are over, it’s done”, and headed towards the door.
Turned back tears hitting the floor says, “Aw, just find it in your heart to forgive me for what I done to you”, and walked out.
Went over to apartment one, knocking on the door, opened, and Sebastian said, “Help me to clean up this dreadful person I become, get me help today Shane!” “Done brother, I’ll call finding the best alcohol clinic”, and nodded.
“Go home and get ready Sebastian, I’ll make the call”.
Held his head replies, “Okay, I need to shower”. Walking away, door shuts and saw Seth running down the steps, took one look asked, “Rough night got a hangover, huh”. “Worst night of my life”. Walking up the steps and Seth walked out the front door. Meanwhile, sleeping on the sofa heard the doorbell ringing, sat up glanced at bruises on her arms, walking slowly towards the door opening it, smiling says, “Hi sugar, thought I’d surprise you”.
“You sure did Brenda”. Stepping inside.
“Well I finished Ashley’s cheerleading uniform”, and slightly bending over squinting, noticing asked, “You okay honey?”
Hand against stomach and puzzled look across her face asked, “Ella are you okay?” Crying out, “Oh Brenda!”
Few minutes later, furious, stormed into Sebastian’s apartment and walked over clutter as that place was a complete pigpen.
Hurried into his bedroom, waved hand, mumbled, “Filth, where are Sebastian?” Walking out of the bathroom and swinging at him raging mad.
“Maw come on stop”, popped him right in the face and screamed, “WHAT DID YOU DO!”
“YOU HURT A FEMALE VERY WRONG BOY”,
“I"M GOING TO KILL YOU!”
Brenda went completely crazy at this point, hitting him and screaming, “WHY BOY!”
“HOW COULD YOU!”
“I DID RAISE A PIG”.
“YOU HURT ELLA!”
“I SHOULD CUT IT OFF”.
Slapped him across the face, “You raped her”.
Hysterical and he grabbed hold of her swinging arms, said, “What drunk going to hurt your mother, why not you have gone insane”.
Holding her arms and spit in his face said, “You are filth”.
Hanging his head replied, “I realize this maw”.
“What you done to Ella was truly unbelievable”.
Keeping his head down, and in tears said, “You hurt Ella badly, she barely can walk, no wonder look at you next to that fragile thing, how could you Sebastian!” Slapping him across the face, he shouts, “ENOUGH MAW!”
Waving her hand out said, “Oh I know what I should be doing is pressing charges on you!”
Head down and leaning against the hallway wall looking at him added, “You touched her wrong, how could you have done that, but the bottle made you like this”, stood silently, and she cries out, “What the hell is the matter with you?’
Looking up said, “I know maw the booze controlled me in a horrible way”. “Aw better not let Saul get wind you raped his ex or Seth!”
“Aw come on maw, it was not rape”.
Folding her arms, said, “Oh really, from what I heard Ella begged you to stop!” “You need help boy” and replied, “It’s taken care of maw Shane is taking me to a rehab
clinic”. “Tried that before, obviously it didn’t work”.
“This time it will maw”. Putting hand to her face said, “Aw you need more than that, possibly a shrink to!” “I am gonna get help maw and my days of looking like a monster will remain”, as she had tears he added, “But acting like one will end right now, I’m done after what I did to Ella”.
Swinging her head saying, “Oh yeah after you totally shattered her”, and hanging his head said, “That was my wakeup call”.
“Bull I have heard that before”, eyebrows high.
“I swear it this time maw, I am done with the bottle ruining my life”.
Walking in saying, “Ready brother”, and Shane saw his mother, said, “Shane make sure he gets the best treatment or he’s disowned”, wiping tears and Sebastian hung his head. Meanwhile, walking into the house looking around, Saul frown asking, “Hey where’s your ma?”
Swung his long blonde hair replied, “I don’t know”, Dylan shrugs when Ashley rushes down the hallway saying, “Ma?”
Standing in the living room jiggling the truck keys heard, “In here daddy” and hurried through the house saw Ashley standing by the doorway pointing said, “Ma is crying”, hears her sobbing said, “I’ll take it from here”.
“Okay dad”, walking away and walks into the bedroom went over to the bed asked, “Hey you okay Ella?”
Pulling the blanket up to her chin replied, “No leave me alone”.
“Fine”, turning around walking towards the door saw him leaving, rose up said, “Saul”, paused says, “Yeah Ella”.
Cries out, “I needed my masked hero last night”.
“What?” Turned around and crying out, “Oh Saul”, rushed back to the bed sat down placing hands onto her shoulders asked, “What happened Ella?”
Shaking her head meaning-no, twisting the blue blanket, “Tell me”.
“No, I cannot”. Staring at her.
“Why not, you can tell me anything”. Brushing her reddish bangs back.
“Not this”.
“That bad huh?” Blanket near her chin replied, “Horrible” and blue eyes big said, “Just tell me Ella”, and tears hitting the blanket says, “Sebastian”.
“What did he do?” Teeth grind.
“He’s really a monster, that’s not your brother anymore, it’s not”, crying, turns red in the face with anger, running fingers through his thick wavy blonde hair asked, “Did he hit you?”
Shaking her head meaning-no, “Aw what the heck happen Ella”. Crying out, “Oh hold me Saul”. Wrapped his arms around her tightly, felt trembling said, “Hey easy there, try to calm down”.
“Just hold me please, don’t let go”, gently his chin rest on top of her head replied, “I never have and never will, but sure wish you’d tell me what happened?”
Head against his broad chest says, “You smell good”.
Slight smile, “Aw I do, huh?”
“Yes”. Held onto him tight.
“Well, your hair smells good, strawberry”.
“My favorite shampoo”.
“I know it’s your favorite, I know everything about you, but wish I knew what happen to you?”
Soft spoken, “It’s so embarrassing”.
“Come again, I didn’t hear you”.
“I’m embarrassed”, and rose one eyebrow high, “Hell no”. Kissed the top of her head says, “Thanks for telling me Ella”.
Eyes large, “I did?” Puzzled frown.
“I just figured it out”.
“Oh Saul”. Held onto him.
“Hey look at me”, looking up, hand placed against her face of tears rolling said, “It will never happen again, I promise”, lay head back against his chest.
Back at the apartment building, leaning against the wall, calmer now talking to Shane watching Sebastian gathering things together says, “Don’t forget your toothbrush”. Flashed it in Shane’s face, la
ughs out, “Get that nasty things away from me”, and eyebrows high said, “Quit, nothing funny about this situation Shane”. Biting on her bottom lip watching Sebastian rush back and forth getting things ready.
Walking out of the bedroom heads turn, noticed Saul charges up grabbing hold of Sebastian slamming him against the wall toothbrush fell to the floor.
Stepping aside fast mumbles, “I knew it!” Watched her son.
Irate, slamming Sebastian wall-to- wall, eyes big Shane saying, “Holy-cow”, watching Saul getting the better of burly Sebastian shouting, “GET THE HELL OFF ME SAUL!”
Kneed him into the groin, Sebastian bending over and kicking him down onto the floor, pointed says, “Aw maw he’s beating the heck out of Sebastian”.
“Yes, I know Shane, I should kick him too, he deserves it, maybe more”, watching Saul smacking his brother in the face shouting, “SWINE WHAT DID YOU DO HUH?” “YOU RAPED ELLA!” Swung a powerful punch directly in Sebastian face rolling over, and eyes huge Shane gasped out, “He done what?”
Arms folded, rose one eyebrow high said, “Told you he needs more Shane”, and lunged down onto him, swinging repeated punches at Sebastian blocking his head. Slung Shane against the wall knocking Brenda down and yelling, “He’s mine I’ll finish this!”
On the floor, scoots over to his mother asking, “You okay maw?” ‘Yes just knocked the wind out of me”, and breathing heavily out, “He really done that to Ella?” Hand places onto Shane’s knee replied, “Yes son last night, poor Ella’s in such pain because of that rotten son of mine”.
Jumps up, rushing grabbing hold of Saul slung him into the wall, jumping down onto Sebastian and swinging lightning fast punches shouting, “AW I SHOULD BURY YOU”.
Sitting on the floor, leans her head back against the wall letting her sons fight and sure did, when Sebastian had enough saw Shane fly by, mumbled, “Oh lord here we go”, brought her knees up into her chest, hearing glass breaking mumbles, “Good grief, I’ll never quit smoking”.
Heard Shane shouting, “SINNER!” Hears Sebastian yelling, “I WAS DRUNK!” Yelling, “YOU WERE WRONG!”
“Actually, I need one now”, and saw Shawn with Stanley rushing by added, “Well this could be good or might turn out worse”, felt the floor vibrating and listening to much confusion.
“AW HE RAPED ELLA!”
“WHAT?” Eyebrows high, saying, “Think it’s going to turn worse”.
Brenda words exactly and jumping up when police officers enter handcuffing Sebastian. There was a felony warrant out for his arrest, because hours earlier before he forced himself on Ella.
Trashed a bar seriously injured two males are in the hospital even hit a cop car speeding off leaving the scene.
In addition, Sebastian’s uncle could try all he wanted to get his nephew off the hook once again.
This time one of Brenda’s boys was going to the state prison for one year, and the Wiley family was completely devastated, but knew this would definitely clean up Sebastian’s act.
Three months pass, Ella had not spoken to Shane since their magical night together. One morning working on a roof with his brothers was rather down, Stanley sure noticed. During lunch break, Stanley asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Aw, I done something”.
Biting into the apple asked, “What did you do and with who?”
Wiping a plum off says, “Pinky swear you’ll never speak a word to anyone”. “You know I won’t”
“Yeah Stan I do know you were always cool”.
Eating the apple replied, “Thanks you always were to”.
Eyes large says, “Not Stewart”.
“Yeah I know”.
“Heck, I never got along with him”.
“I don’t think none of us did Shane”.
“No, I fought with him the most”.
“Yeah every other day, why?”
“Aw he stole my girl Polly”.
Choked on the apple asked, “He did?”
“Yeah, I caught Polly rolling in the hay with Stewart one day”.
“Woe, I never knew”.
“I disliked that brother”.
“Think he will ever come home?”
“Aw, I hope not Stan”.
“Wonder if maw hears from him?”
“She does, they talk long distance he knew about paw, but never come home”. “Guess he won’t, huh?”
“Good, he’s still got a beating coming from me over stealing my girl”.
Laughing and noticing, “What’s so funny Stan?”
“Aw Stewart stole a few of Saul’s girlfriends, remember, that one big fight on the front lawn?”
“Oh yeah, he was worse than Saul, walking Casanova”.
Laughing out, “Saul whipped his ass”.
“Sure did Stan and badly”.
Shaking his head Shane added, “Hope he stays away, I know it’s sad to say, but if Stewart is still the same he might go after our women”.
Eyes big, saw and patted Stanley’s shoulder, “Aw don’t fret little brother ever since Stew joined the Navy he’s not returned”.
“Enough talk about that brother, I want to know why the sudden gloom Shane.” Whispering, “I slept with Ella”, nearly choking on the apple, “You did?” “Yeah was great it’s been three years not sleeping with a woman it felt so good”. “Why you upset if it was so great”.
“She just blew me off completely”.
“Wonder what happened”.
“I don’t know sure would like more moments together”.
Smirking, when Saul comes walking up saying, “Uh, lunch break is over y’all”, and Shane with Stanley got back to work.
A few days pass, standing on the rooftop, and furious, Saul was raving on even kicking things, when a metal bucket hit Shawn in the back he said, “What the heck brother you just dumped a brand new box of nails too”.
Smirking asked. “You’re not mad about the bucket” and waving hand says, “No, Seth, more upset about the mess he just made”.
Hands to his head replied, “Can you believe that bull”, and his brothers all looked at him, curious, Saul said, “Pregnant!” Picking up the nails with Seth helping him, Shawn said, “You got a chick pregnant brother?”
“No not me, someone got my ex-wife pregnant”, eyes huge, few ready to pop out and asked, “Ella is pregnant?”
“Yeah, she sure is Shawn”, picking up nails asked, “Upset ya, huh?”
Squatting down replied, “Ah, little bit”.
Held the filled box of nails again said, “Aw, you still hold a torch for Ella?” Hanging his head, stood up, went near Seth and said, “Well congrats again little brother”.
“Wish it was mine, but we have not spoken in months so this one is not my child”. Looked at Saul, said, “Cannot be Sebastian, because he still has three months to go in the pen”.
“Hey you are divorced maybe she met another man not named Wiley”. “Nah, it’s a Wiley Shawn”.
Suddenly, choking and quickly Stanley patted Shane on the back, as he really was choking.
Noticing, watched when a pickle flew out of his mouth and breathing hard Shane said, “Aw thanks Stan you saved my life”.
Aggravated, walked over by Shane and said, “Aw brother do you have a clue who the daddy is?”
Pointing Seth asked, “Shane why would he know?”
Close in Shane’s face that stared back not replying and throwing his hands up Saul said, “Aw let’s just get back to work, she’s not my girl no more, obviously never was”, as Seth hung his head and Shane looked faint.
However, Saul remembered the night he caught Shane and Ella out to dinner as he now had a good idea who daddy might be.
Later that night, stood on the front porch knocking on the door and standing on the other side saying, “Oh Shane, just go away please” , hung her head.
Stood with his hands tucked in his baggy blue jean pockets said, “No I cannot, because I know Ella”.
“You know what”.
Hanging his head, leaning against the door replied, “My sixth!”
The door opened, saw her stomach and said, “It is true”.
Crying, “Oh I wasn’t going to keep it, but god I just couldn’t do that even though this is really bad” and cried very heavily.
Rapidly, grabbed her into his arms holding her tightly said, “Aw I feared I must have done something or I am a bad lover that you broke it off so fast”.
Looked up at him, said, “You were amazing, sure surprised me”.
Eyes large, asked, “I was?” Looked puzzled.
Slight smile replied, “I get embarrassed talking about this stuff, especially to a man, but I don’t think I ever felt oral pleasure like that or that long, wow”.
“Told you my favorite thing to do”. Grins.
“Yes I found out”. Held her grinning, added. “Aw, I like the way women wiggle like spaghetti”. Slight smile.
In his arms snug asked, “What do we do about our baby?”
“Keep it of course”.
“Yes I know, but don’t want no one to find out it’s yours, they just can’t”. “Don’t worry Ella it will work out”.
“Not if everyone finds out I slept with another brother”.
“The baby is mine right?”
Pulling back, “What”, and hands up says, “Aw just asking”.
“Yes you’re the daddy”, rolled eyes barely noticed since Shane now had long bangs and asked, “Not happy about the news?”
“Want to know something Ella”.
Shaking her head, “Yes”.
“I never wanted kids, swore I would never have them and I end up with the most”. “So is that bad Shane?”
“Far from, I’m the luckiest man to have those wonderful children in my life”. Touching her stomach says, “One more”, and placed his hand against her stomach, “I am very happy”.
A few days later.
Shane was questioned by Stanley, if Ella was pregnant? Told him, “Yes” and knew his secret was safe with that brother.
One week pass, it was Stanley’s son Jared’s fourteenth birthday and wanted to have his party held at the bowling alley, the Wiley’s rent four lanes to bowl. Brenda surprised when she saw that Shawn brought Jennifer.
Pizza ordered and Brenda brought the large birthday cake as the grandchildren were into bowling and competing as a few squabbled.
