Today was the day you are moving to Brighton. You are going to miss it here at wales, but you have no choice. The moving van was here yesterday to pick up all the boxes and now you need to drive to the new house. You boyfriend is waiting for you in the car so you need to go now, before he gets mad. 

You get in the car and he starts driving right away, it's a 3 hour 44 minute drive, and you know there won't be much talking. If there is talking, it's usaly a one-sided conversation. You put your earbuds in, and the song "as the world caves in" by Matt Maltese turns on first. You start to relax and eventually, you fall asleep.

You wake up approximately 2 hours later and the first thing you see are the beautiful stars in the night sky. You left at six o'clock so it's probably eight o'clock now. Your boyfriend, Carter sees you awake and starts to talk "when we get to the new house the furniture will be set up already so I want you to make me some food". You just nodded in response and then went back to stargazing, although he wanted more than a nod "use your voice when you respond to me." He said sternly, "yes sir" you said "good" he said.

Once you finally arrived to the house, he was right, everything was already set up for you so you started cooking right away. You made chicken along with rice on the side. You arranged his plate, then yours, you set the dishes at the table and went to his new room. You knocked on the door three times and then said "your food is ready" and then retreated back to the table.

He came out into the hallway and walked into the kitchen and sat down at the island barstools. He sat one barstool away from you. He looked at his plate, then yours. "Why do you have a plate?" "I...just.. thought tha-" "throw it in the garbage, or give it to your stupid cat" he cut you off. "Ok" you said as you got off you seat and set it on the ground for your cat to come and eat. After a minuet or so, your cat ginger showed up and started to eat the food, in the meantime carter just kept eating.

Carter left the island to go sit on the couch, and ginger had eaten all the food on the plate so you took the two plates and threw the remains away and put the dishes in the dishwasher. Carter watch me closely while I did it just to make sure that I wouldn't eat anything left over. "Tomorrow you are getting that office so you can work, right?" He asked "yes" my voice was smaller than his by a lot. "Good, you can clean tonight and work tomorrow" I nodded and then grabbed a broom and a dustpan and started to tidy up the small house. He smiled, then went back to scrolling through his phone.

About two hours later you finished cleaning the house to what you knew he would accept and then went to the bathroom to change your bandages. First you took the bandage off your legs with her was scattered with cuts, then re bandaged them. You covered the bruises on your stomach, ams and shoulder with vitamin k cream to try to help them. Then you re bandaged your neck witch was covered with sort of healing scars from him chocking you for messing things up. After then it was about eleven at night so you went to you room to get some sleep.

When you woke up you started to get ready right away. It was 6:15 a.m. and the owner of the office building, Oscar was giving you a office at 7:00 a.m. and you needed to start going right away. Once you we're ready it was 6:30 a.m. so you hurried out of the house and got into the car, you drove downtown and came to a stop in a carpark where your office building is.

You walked in the front door of the office building at 6:55 so you had a bit of time to waste, so you sat down on a chair in the lobby and scrolled through Twitter, it was a thing you only got to do occasionally because carter didn't like it if you were on your phone.  It was 7:00 when a taller African American man who looked to be in his thirty's came up to you. "Are you y/n l/n?" He asked "yes that's me" you said in a smaller voice "perfect! Why don't you come with me to my office so you can sign some last minute forms and get your office" "sure" you said as you got up and followed the man out the lobby and up through the stairs.


A/N: Have a wonderful day/night and eat, drink, and take care of yourself! Stay safe!
