((Sorry for any swearing))
Your POV:
The trials are over. Thomas, Newt, Minho, Teresa, Frypan, me, everyone, is living. We all lasted long enough to see the world. We all live happy with our families, or alone, or with each other. Newt, my best friend, lives alone because he doesn't have his parents. Or any family.
WICKED found my dad. My mom had the flare and died before the cure. But at least I have my dad.
~~~~
"Hey dad!" I greet as he comes through the door.
"What do you want you little piece of shit!" He yells.
"Dad? What's wrong?" I ask. He never says things like that.
"What's wrong is you! You should've died! Not your mother!" He says throwing a bottle at me. I notice that it was a beer bottle. Luckily I dodged it.
"Dad! Stop you're drunk!" I say on the verge of tears.
"You little piece of shit! You never should've been born! This is all your fault!" He yells as he pulls my hair tightly.
"Dad! Stop! Please your hurting me!" I cry.
"Shut up!" He yells and drags me to the basement.
"Dad please!" I try to pull out of his grip. He throws me down the stairs and comes down.
"I want you to kill yourself so your mother could be happy!" He yelled. He finds a piece of glass and shoves it at me, causing it to stab me.
"Why are you doing this dad! She wouldn't be happy if you killed me," I cried even more.
"That's why I'm making you kill yourself!" He says. He takes off his belt.
"Dad please no!" I say stepping back.
"I said kill yourself!" He yells slashing the belt at me.
~~~~
I finally got enough courage. He slashed his belt again but before it hit me, I grabbed it. I nearly threw him across the room. I didn't even look back when I ran upstairs and out the door.
I had tears streaming down my face. I reached the other side of neighborhood when I bumped into someone.
"Woah, (y/n)! What's wrong?" A familiar voice asks. I look up and see Newt. I hug him tightly.
"My-my dad!" I say. "He came home drunk and.....and he...." I couldn't finish my sentence, I started to cry. Newt wipes my face.
"Let's go to my house, we can talk there," he says. I nod and he leads me down the street. We get to this beautiful white and blue house. He sat me down on the couch. "Now," he says sitting down next to me. "Tell me what happened."
I tell him everything that happened. He shook his head afterwards. I thought he wasn't going to want me for being so weak to my dad. He wipes away my tears.
"It's ok (y/n). I'm here," he says hugging me. "You can live with me."
"R-really?" I ask looking up.
"Really," he says. "I promise I won't hurt you like your dad did, I'll do anything for you not to feel that pain ever again," he says. His British accent made it sweeter.
"Thank you Newt," I say and bury my face in his chest. I feel him pick me up and take me upstairs. He sets me down on a bed.
"Goodnight," he says. "Love," he closes the door.
