My Badboy Story

Chapter 5

~~~Avery's P.O.V.~~~

"Okay" I finally give up and say. I take a deep breath.

I can fake a smile
I can force a laugh
I can dance and play the part of that's what you ask
Give you all I am
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human and I crash and I break down
Your words In my head
Knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
Cause I'm only human

I sing Christina Perri's Human. I love that song. When I finish singing I keep my head down not wanting to look at him. It's dead silent, I look up at him waiting for a comment but he just looks at me in awe. "Holy crap! Your amazing! Like really truly amazing! I've never heard a voice like that before. Your knew nickname is no longer kitten it is angel cause that's what you sound like!" I blush and smile at him. Looking in his eyes he slowly starts to lean in. Then we are both startled by my phone ringing.

I grab my phone from my pocket and sit up on the bed. It's my dad... "Hello?" I answer.

"Where are you!? Get your dumbass over here and make dinner for me and your mom, you ungrateful bitch!" He yells into my ear.

"Sorry father, I was working on a project for school. I will be there in a second" I say knowing what is going to happen tonight.

"I don't give a flying fuck what you were doing just get your ass here! Now!" Then the line cuts off. I look over at Jake.

"Sorry I need to go." I quickly grab my stuff and use my crutches to get to my house.

I walk through the front door and straight to the kitchen. I start boiling water and making sauce for spaghetti. As soon as the food is done I set the table for my mother and father. I walk to my parents bedroom and knock. "Dinner is ready" I say quietly. I turn around to go to my bed room. I open the door and can see straight into Jake's room. I'm stepping into my room when I'm yanked back by my hair.

"And where do you think your going!?" My father shouts at me. He pushes me to the ground. "You were fucking late! I'm hungry because you can't do any fucking shit right! I'm too hungry to even deal with you tonight" he kicks me in the stomach the walks downstairs to go eat.

I knew not to be hopeful that I'm done. My mother comes out with a smile on her sadistic face. "Now sweetie you know you can't be coming home late" she sighs "you have left me no choice"

I'm on my feet now and out of the corner of my eye, I see Jake in his room looking at me. Confusion in his eyes quickly turn to fear when he sees what is coming toward me.

My mother swings her bat at me, the force knocking me to the ground. She continues to hit me. I got off easy. I only counted four swings after the first one before she walks away.

I start to crawl in my room completely. I shut the door behind me and lock it. I crawl over to my bed and climb on it. When I see a figure in my room. Jake must have climbed in from his window using the tree in between.

He comes to the bed silently and gently holds me. He makes me feel safe. He holds me and eventually I fall asleep.
