*beep beep beep* I sighed, another day of torture. I got up from bed and winced when a shooting pain came from my my ribs. Great. There probably broken. I mean I did get a harsh beating last night. I came home late if your wondering. I wal- limp to the bathroom to get ready for school. I mean school isn't that bad but my only friend is on holiday with her family. So school will be boring. So I put on some leggings and a black oversized jumper. It was boiling but there are scars and bruises all over my legs and arms. Which reminds me I have to put some makeup on to cover my face. I have also mastered to walk without limping. It is painful but don't want to raise any suspicions. I get my backpack and phone and head to school.
I slowly got to school and I was 10 minutes late. I went to the office to sign in. "Hi umm I'm late." The lady looked up and smiled. "That's okay Y/N go to the hall there is some guests here today." You nodded and made it to the hall. Oh god. This is gonna be embarrassing. You opened the door and everyone turned to you. You quickly made it to the only seat left. At the front. Omg can today get any worse? You sat down and still felt a pair of eyes on you. Actually multiple. You looked up and saw the marvel cast. Wait. Are they the guests? If I could scream right now I would. I love Marvel. But anyway why were they staring at me? Some random girl next to me leaned over and whispered. "There is a bruise on your neck." Your eyes widened and you felt around your neck. You must of got that when your dad grabbed you from there last night. So here you are sitting at the front with a hand shaped bruise around your neck. What are people gonna think. Why has a 10 year old got that? Ok what do I do? Maybe just pay attention.
"Okay so our guests today are... The marvel cast!" Everyone cheered. Some of them were still looking at you. You felt a bit awkward. "Hi I'm Robert Downey Junior or you can call me RDJ and we are here to see what you guys do so anything you guys would like to say?" He asked the rest of the cast. They shook their heads smiling at us. Although one pair of eyes still stayed on me. Scarlett Johansson. You just smiled at her but it didn't reach your eyes. She smiled back. The principal went back up. "Okay everyone go to your classes."
Before I went to my class I went to the bathroom but I could tell the cast was following me. A bit creepy. I quickened my pace and found the disabled one and locked myself in. Oh god. There just gonna wait out there. I took out some makeup and covered my neck. Ok all good. I unlocked the door hoping they were gone but luck isn't on my side today. They all stared at me expectantly and I just gave a confused glance. "What was on your neck?" RDJ asked getting straight to the point. "There wasn't anything in my neck." You said. They lifted there eyebrows and looked at you. You sighed and shrugged before walking off. Someone grabbed your arm and pulled you back, you looked up to see Chris Evans. "Yes Mr Evans?" He shook his head. "Please call me Chris and are you sure your okay?" You smiled and nodded. He let go of you so you could head to class and to your surprise everyone was still waiting outside.
First you had math. No cast. English. No cast. History. No cast. Drama. All of them. Hopefully we won't be moving much today. I sat down in the circle of chairs and Scarlett took the one next to me. Okay this is gonna be awkward. "Okay class take out your books and write down a scene from a movie you watched recently!" You took out your book and wrote down a scene from the movie Iron Man 2. "You a fan of marvel?" Scarlett asked you. You nodded and muttered a "yes." She smiled and looked over your writing. This was kinda weird not gonna lie. "Okay let's goooo.. Y/N, what movie did you pick to write a scene from?" She asked you and you didn't miss the smiles from the cast when she announced your name. "Iron man 2." You said.
Everyone had their go. The bell rang and it was time for lunch. You were about to leave when the teacher called for you. And guess what. Cast. Still there. You walked over almost wincing at every step but didn't. "Could you please show them around after you finished eating?" You nodded. Then you realised you didn't pack any food and don't have money for lunch so you added "actually we can start now because I'm not that hungry." They looked at you. "Are you sure we can easily wait." Scarlett said to you with a gentle smile. "No it's fine." She nodded her head with a frown.
You started to show them around and you didn't realise that you were limping again. "Are you okay you are limping?" Scarlett asked worriedly. You nodded. "My leg has gone funny, it does that sometimes." You laughed. "Uh-hu." Jeremy Renner said. You finished showing them around and you realised you had a free period. "You can go wherever now since you have seen the whole school." They nodded and walked off except for Scarlett. Not to be rude but like Come on!! "Aren't you going to class?" She asked. "I have a free period." She nodded. "I will stay with you to keep you company" She said. You nodded with a smile. So it was pretty silent as you walked to the cafeteria to get booth. "So what do you do on free periods?" "I just sit on my phone and text my friend, she is in a holiday." She nodded. The bell eventually went and you realised it was a short day so you had to go back to the hellhole. I mean home. I said goodbye to Scarlett and she went to go find the rest of the cast.
When I got home I went inside only to be dragged in by the hair. "WHERE IS MY DINNER SLUT!" You were shaking. "ANSWER ME!" He bellowed. "I haven't made it yet sir!" He shook his head and started beating you. God this hurt so much. "Now you are gonna come with me to my bar because there is someone for you." You nodded. He owned a bar down the street. It was a popular one. He didn't allow you to go there so you were confused to why. "Go cover yourself up we leave in 10!" He ordered with a slap in the face. You quickly scurried over to your room. Well it wasn't much of a room. You had a worn out mattress, and a box to keep your clothes in. You covered yourself up and met your dad outside you room. "Now you will be on your best behaviour okay?" You nodded.
"Ok now go serve Table number 6. They are special. Fucking brat." He muttered and pushed you forward. You walked over and put on the best fake smile you could muster. "What can u get for yous?" The casts jaws dropped. "Y/N what are you doing here?!" You sighed. "My dad owns this bar." Once they say their order with a horrified look you went to get the drinks.
SCARLETTS POV
We all placed our orders and I couldn't help but notice how broken she looked under all that smiles. I'm clearly not the only. "She looked scared?" RDJ asked. "To me she looked a bit angry." Jeremy said. "She looks broken." I stated. They nodded and she came back with our drinks. "Sit down with us Y/N." I said. She shook her head "I can't." i noticed she glanced to where I'm guessing her dad was. The man was staring intently at her. "Please." I said. She sighed. "Let me ask my dad." I nodded but why would she have to ask. I mean he is the one that brought a 10 year old to a bar. I looked over and he was glaring at her. She looked down and nodded. I also noticed when she turned to head to us she had a smile on her face. Weird.
I budged over so she could sit down. "So what was that bruise on your neck and don't tell me there wasn't one cause I saw it." I said sternly. She stayed silent but I noticed tears swelling up in her eyes. "Come here." she leaned into me and I hugged her. I tightened my grip on her to test something. I was right. She winced. I was about to say something but she beat me to it. "He hurts me, he hurts me so bad." she quietly cried. My heart broke for this girl. I decided right then and there she is coming with us. "Anything else happen?" Chris E asked while I pushed strands of hair out her face and stroked her cheek. She shook her head and sobbed. We all teared up. The poor girl, no one should go through this.
Without warning I picked her up and she clung onto me for dear life. I walked over for the man that's her so called father. "I'm taking her." I said to him. "Excuse me?" "I'm taking her, your abusing her so she is mine now." I stated. He just scoffed. "Fine take her she's a bitch anyway." I just gasped and stormed over to the others. "We're leaving." And walked out. I pulled back a bit so I could see her face and she looked at me. "Your coming with my sweetheart!" She smiled a genuine smile. She went back to putting her head on my chest and she fell asleep. The guys soon came out and we headed to the car. "Let's go home". I said.
