Chapter 2-Background

Today,the first day of school.And it's been 2 and a half years since John and I started going out. I am excited. "Why" someone might ask? Because I just had a 'great' summer and now i am going to go back to school.

Whats so good about school? well, I will tell you.School. I love school. People might think I am a nerd but I am not. I loved school for 2 and a half years. Why? because i get to get away from john hitting me. I get to go to school and forget about it. I get to go to math and learn to solve an equation instead of mine. I go to reading and read a romance novel that I wish was my story. I get to go to science and history and not have to worry about saying something wrong and getting hit.Or doing something wrong and getting hit.

Summer was not 'great' but that's what john wants me to say. He knows one of these days that the truth might slip. So He makes it as good as possible.He tries to be as nice as possible. He TRIES. I know he does.He did.

This summer he hit me only 79 times.And gave me 45 bruises, they went away.So far that is a record.I think doing sports did help him get his anger out but now he hit harder, so I think it equals out to last year.

The thing is hiding the bruises is the hardest part.

In the summer, when it was 98 degrees out, I had to wear a long sleeve shirt. Why? because I was talking to some guy,our age, and John thought I was flirting with him. After he told the kid to back off, we went to his house. We went to his room. I tried to tell him I wasn't flirting with him but He hit me twice in the stomach and three times on the arm. When he saw that he left bruises he went to the kitchen and slit his wrist three time. I was so scared that he was going to die of blood loss, so I took him to the hospital. They stitched him up and when they saw the bruises on my arm that had asked what happen but I didn't know what to say. Luckily, John told them i feel down a flight of stairs. But they wanted to call my parent to see if the story was true. My mom rushed to the hospital, to see what had happen and I stuck with John's story. She didn't believe it. She grounded me for 3 months and to break up with John. She thought he was abusing me. And boy was she right. She even pressed charges. I won't testify though I even convinced her that he wasn't abusing me. I loved him and he loved me. I wasn't going to stand by and watch him get locked up. NEVER. Ever since then hiding the bruises was the hardest thing. AND I would never let anyone see them again.

Today was going to be the best day.
