We parked in front of a massive building and got out of the car. My arm linked with Enzo's and Stefano and Tarra entered first.
When the doors opened, the entire room was filled with many people from all over the world. I could hear different lan...
The rest of the day went by pretty quickly. It was now 8 at night and Tarra's mom Nina told me it was time to go home. I got my stuff and said my goodbyes to everyone.
I was a block away and remembered about the text from Enzo. I shrugged it off and walked past the convenient store when I suddenly felt someone grab my wrist. I grunted in pain as my eyes met those green eyes again.
"What the hell do you want Enzo?"
"Why did you ignore my texts hm?"
"Because I don't have to listen to your bullshit orders. But since we're here now, what do you want?" I crossed my arms and glared at him.
"I need you to come with me-"
"No." I cut him off. He glared at me. I glared back too. Two can play at that game bitch.
"Listen to me-"
"No."
"Ellie-"
"No"
I turned my back and started walking the other way. He didn't follow me. I crossed the street and walked home. I took a deep breathe and walked back into the one place I called hell.
I didn't see anyone or any of the lights on so I assumed my dad was out. I went up to my bedroom and locked the door behind me. My entire room was trashed. I sighed and started picking up my clothes when I heard three loud bangs against my door.
"OPEN THE DOOR YOU BITCH" I flinched. I didn't open the door and tried to ignore it but he eventually punched the whole door down. I backed up as he walked closer to me. He grabbed onto my hair and threw me against the wall.
"First your mother, now your own fucking brother?" He kicked me in the ribs. He punched me in the face a couple of times and started to choke me.
"You ruined this entire family you worthless problem causing bitch" His grip tightened and I felt myself seeing blurry things. His grip loosened and he kicked my stomach at least five more times.
Finally after what seemed like hours, he stopped and left my room. I curled up into a ball and tried not to let out a cry as it would only hurt my stomach even more. I just lay there in silence on the ground until I eventually fell asleep.

When Ellie walked away from me, as much as I hate to say it, I knew I couldn't convince her to come to the ball with me or even tell her about it. Looks like we're going with plan B. I texted Leo.
'Plan B. Fernando and you look after Ellie's house and if you see ANYBODY try to break in, you shoot them.'
'Will do Enzo. Hey do you like this girl or what? Why are we on lookout for her?'
'Just shut the fuck up and do as you're told'
'Jesus alright Mr. Moody pants'
I rolled my eyes and put my phone back in my pocket. I took my car and drove back home. When I got home, Stefano was in my office with some papers.
"You might want to see this." I took the papers out of Stef's hands and went through them. They were photos. Of Ellie. With marks all over her face.
"Where did you get these and who the fuck did this to her?" I threw the photos on the ground.
"We aren't sure exactly who she's staying with but whoever is doing this to her isn't stopping. Fernando told me that they didn't see much or hear much at the house so she could just be getting bullied at school."
Who the hell would bully Ellie? I sighed and nodded.
"I'll check to see if it's Ellie's school doing this and who she's staying with at home whether it's her mom or dad or anybody else." I nodded and Stefano left the room.

I jolted up from the ground and instantly regretted doing that. Fuck me why does everything hurt? I checked my phone and it was 4 in the morning. I got up from the cold floor and went into the bathroom. I looked in the mirror and saw that I had a black eye on my right, another black bruise on my cheekbone, and a scratch mark on my chin and lip. I lifted up my hoodie and saw marks and all sorts of bruises all over. I placed the hoodie back onto my body and brushed my teeth.
I got some concealer and covered up everything on my face but since it didn't do much, I had to cover it up with more foundation. I set everything and tried my best to keep everything covered. That should do it.
I threw my hair into a messy bun and looked for some clothes.

I got my things and my bag as I headed out of the house quietly. Tarra told me she was already here so I hopped straight into her car.
"How are you feeling?"
"I'm okay, just got a headache" I lied. I never want Tarra to find out how bad it is at home. We got to school at around 6:40 and like always, Tarra ordered food. I didn't get anything because I wasn't really hungry.
Most of the school day went by like how it normally does, and I saw Tarra before my last period. Staff said they were going to search her bag so of course me being the best friend, I held onto her cigarettes, lighters, and vapes. Of course I took the vape and kept it in my bag, but I gave back her other stuff at the end of the day.
"You sneaky little witch" Tarra came up from behind me in the hallways. "Okay so one of my friends are having a party at his place and you are coming." My eyes widened.
"HUH? No no no-"
"Yes yes YES" She yelped.
"Come on Tarra it's Monday!!!"
"And?! Just tell your dad that you're spending the night at mine or something!" I stared at her and she gave me the puppy dog eyes.
"Tarra fucking Evans you are so lucky I love you" She clapped her hands. "But I'm going to head home first. Come pick me up at 7 tonight" She nodded and dropped me off at mine. It was way too early for me to be home at this time normally. I just pray dad's either asleep or not home at all.
Well this isn't going to end quite well now is it Tarra Evans?
