When every race is run and the day is closing in
I feel the need to hold you, let the night begin
Come softly to me, show me why...

Kimberly got up from the table and walked out of the Young Center, Billy followed her.

That has been a very long boring and extenuating day- Monster no- included- Kimberly was tired and bored, so she and Billy has made a date. Another date, that kept her wishing the day to come to an end. The arrived to a beautiful cabin in the mountain. She held him so thigh that he almost couldn’t breathe. He held her back, and Kissed her. She kissed him softly, and the night begun. He started pulling her clothes out, also did she. The heat in their bodies was much to be kept closed. They had to show each other how much they loved, and that was very much.

You know how to please me
Like nobody can
Someone to believe in
Be my lover, be my friend.

Kimberly kissed Billy’s chest softly. The heat of his body kept her warm. She was comfortable. And she loved him. Billy kissed her hair, she lifted her head and kissed him in the lips. “had I told you how much I love you?” she asked softly, her voice showing the love she felt for her first and only lover. “about a hundred times, just tonight” he joked back. He really liked to be whit Kimberly. She used to listen to him carefully, help him whit his problems, and make him feel special. “well, I’ll never stop telling you that I love you, because I really love you and I always will.” She said smiling. Billy smiled trusting in her. Even when this guy Tommy has came to her life, she hadn’t stopped loving him. And showing him the love she felt for him. “I wonder, why our love is so magic? What’s crossing our hearts right now, in this same moment that makes us feel like we can’t live whitout each other?” Billy said. There’s was a long silence. “ you really feel like you can’t live whitout me?” she asked. “yes.” He answered, holding her closer to his body, he felt comfortable and safe when she was there. “ I really love you.” He continued. “great. I think that’s what make it magic. And maybe that is secret. I don’t know. All I know is that I love you.” She said. Billy Kissed her. “ and all I know is that I love you, and I love you a lot” he said back to her.

I cannot wait to feel the beating of your heart
The days are long and they are just keeping us apart
Come softly to me, show me why...

Kimberly walked by the school corridor still thinking about what has happened between Billy and her the last night. They had loved, she found things about Billy that no one else knows.” He’s georgeus. A male, a real male. A man. A mature teen. A child. He acted like all of it yesterday. We acted liked babies, like adults. And we loved and had fun. I want to see him again. I definitely want to have another secret date whit him.” She tough. Just after she started to concentrate in school, Billy came to her and holding her by her arm took her to a deep lost corridor. They were completely alone. He kissed her passionately. “what’s up?” she asked after his lips left hers. “ I just missed you. I wanted to Kiss you.” He answered. She looked at him and smiled.” We should have another date Tonight” she whispered softly in his ear. “let’s go. Same place, same hour.” He said and left. She walked behind him.

Three months later...
Billy landed in the floor as Kimberly clapped. ”it was amazing.” She said as she approached to Billy and Jason who were practicing martial arts in the youth center. “thanks.” Billy said smiling. “ You are stronger than I tough, Billy.” Jason said. “ you’re so different from how you look.” Jason told him. Billy smiled. “ you don’t know how much” Kimberly whispered looking to Billy whit passion in her eyes. Long day. It was almost 9:00 pm and they were still in the Youth center. “ Billy, we gotta go. It’s almost nine and we live a little far from here.” She told him. Billy grabbed his things and she leaded him outside.
When they arrived their cabin, Kimberly sat on the couch. He walked slowly to her and wrapped his arms around her. “ I love you, Kimberly.” He whispered in her ear. “ make me feel loved, Billy. And, of course, let me love you.” She answered, and their kisses went a little farther this time, like other loving nights.
Again after hours, Kimberly’s head was lying against Billy’s chest. She could felt his heart beating fast. “what’s going on?” she asked. Billy was breathing fast too. “ nothing, it’s just that... I’m tired.” He told her, she wasn’t convinced. “ you’re lying. Come on, tell me. You know you can trust me.” she assured him. He smiled and looked down to her. “all right.” He started to talk. Kimberly sat by his side and put his head on her shoulder and started caressing softly his hair. “it’s just that I found out my mother’s new boyfriend is beating her.” Billy said, burying his face in Kim’s breasts. “beating her?” she asked concerned. Her “Nana Jan”, as she called Billy’s mother, looked pretty happy whit her new boyfriend. “like a punching bag. And mum... she doesn’t want to tell me. To admit it.” He started crying softly. She caressed his head a little more, not wanting to make him stop crying. “ you’ll be ok. But, how’s that you know? I mean, if Nana Jan doesn’t want to admit it, how’s that you know? Is she marked or something?” she asked coldly. After she spoke, she found out that her questions were cruel for Billy. “I’m sorry. I didn’t meant to...” “it’s OK.” He assured him kissing her hand softly. “ I... I saw him beating her. He was drunk. I tried to stop him, but... Lindy didn’t let me go in the room. She said that stay away from him was the wisest to do. I felt so... weak, maybe scared. I felt like a mouse, a mouse who was hiding from his fears. I saw him beating my mom. Then the next morning, he came to table and kissed her like nothing had happened. My mom accepted his kisses, like she had forgiven him. I was... so angry. But Lindy kept me in my senses. Mindy didn’t came down until he left. She was so scared when I went up for her. You had to see my sister. I’m afraid about my mom, about my sister, even about me.” He told her. Then woke up and got dressed. He looked to his watch, then to Kim who was combing her hair. “ he must be in home in about... 45 minutes” He told her. “45 minutes? It’s about 2:30 am. Isn’t he in home?” “no. Kim...” “what?” she looked to him and he took her hands. “thanks for listening to me. And for let me cry. I hate that man.” “how much?” she asked softly as her lips approached to his. “ almost as much as I love you.” He told her and they started kissing. “ I love you. I really, really love you, Billy.” She assured him.

Whenever you’re near me
I give you everything I have
Someone to believe in
When things are good or when they are bad

When Billy and Kimberly arrived to Billy’s house, she had to came down from her car whit him. An ambulance was there and some police cars too. Lindy was talking to a policeman, Billy’s eyes filled whit tears. He walked over to his younger sister. “what happened Lindy?” he asked. Lindy was crying. “it was mom...” she said burying her face in her brother’s chest. He held her strong. Kimberly came to them. “ what happened?” she asked. “something happened to mom, but she hadn’t told me anything else” Billy told her. He started crying while still holding his sister. “I’m scared, Billy.” Lindy told him. “I’m scared too, Lindy.” He told her, holding her stronger. “what happened Lindy?. What happened to Mommy?” he asked, now holding Lindy by her shoulders. “ he beat her again. This time, Mindy tried to stop him, she called the police, when he found out he raped her. I was hidden, then he beat her. And she’s very bad.” Billy bit his lower lip “that son of a bitch.” He whispered. “ he raped a girl, just for calling the police. Lindy, what happened to mom? “ he asked, releasing that Lindy hadn’t answered to his questions. “ He threw her by the stairs handrail. She landed in the dinning room table. The glass shattered... Billy... mom is dead.” She told his brother jumping to his arms as them both started crying. Kimberly started crying too. “ this can’t be happening, first dad, now mom... who else is going to leave?!” he yelled. “ maybe her twin sister.” A policeman told them.” What you mean?” Billy asked looking at the policeman.” I received a call from the hospital. She didn’t made it. Your sister Mindy is dead too.” “Mindy!” Lindy yelled. She has learned from Billy to be easy and calmed, but all her family, except for Billy has died. Kimberly held them for a while. She was amazed by Lindy’s coldness, she was so quiet. She cleared her throat. “ I think you better come to my house tonight. You’ll be more calmed tomorrow morning.” She told them. Billy looked up to her, also did Lindy. “ thanks, Kimberly. You can take Lindy, I want to find out some things. Ok, Lindy? I’ll be there in 10 minutes.” He told them both. “OK. But don’t delay in going.” His 12 years old sister told him. “ I promise.” He assured as he walked to some policeman standing near to them. Kimberly and Lindy went to her house, the house next to the cranston’s. Kimberly’s parents were up, when she came in whit Lindy. “Kimberly Ann, Where the hell were you?” her father asked. “Billy’s mom was killed some time ago, also Mindy. Lindy came whit me, and I want to talk alone to her about what happened to her, and her brother. I feel guilty, and I want to talk to Lindy in my room, so we’ll discuss about this tomorrow, if you don’t mind.” Kimberly said in a deep voice tone, lightly angry. How can they worry about where I was, while police cars and ambulances come to the garden next to them, which is their best friend’s garden?, she tough. She was right about to take Lindy to her room when doorbell rang. Kim went to open when she opened she saw the man that killed Billy’s mother, he was dressing like a policeman, he pushed her from the door, trying to go in. Kimberly kicked him as strong as she could. “ Mom, Call the policeman in the Cranston’s garden!” she yelled. But it was too late, he pushed so hard that she landed in the floor. Her mother came whit policemen to find him trying to rape her while she was defending herself. The policeman took him to a police car, Billy came to Kimberly running, and held her strong. “ you all right?” he asked worried. “ yes. I’m fine, thanks.” She answered as the three of them went to her bed room. That promised to be a very long night, that will mark their lives forever.
