ameliahs pov

he has been coming into my room, every night for days. i'm sick of it. he acts like nothing has happened during the day, but then gets drunk again.

i haven't eaten for days. i'm afraid i'm gonna puke it up.

i wanna text matt back but i'm scared he's gonna get angry at me. idk what for but ik hes gonna make me eat. i dont want to.

i also haven't showered. its a bit gross.

i got up out of bed and for forced my self to shower. i turned it on quietly hoping dad wouldn't hear me. i looked at my body in the mirror. it was covered in bruises. i strip and hop in the shower.

why didn't i do this earlier?. it felt so good. the warm water running down my body. i start washing my hair when i hear the door open.

"hey baby? why u showering without me?" "dad please no more, i'm fucking done with you dick wad" before he can get a word out i grab my shampoo bottle and throw it at him.

"YOU LITTLE BITCH!"

i grab a towel and wrap it around my self, proud i didn't let him hurt me again. as i walk past i stomp on his groin and scuttle out of the bathroom.

i run to my room and lock the door. i cant be bothered to pick out an outfit so i just put on my dirty clothes from the past few days and chuck one of matts hoodies on over the top. it smells just like him.

i can hear banging and screaming coming from outside the door. i start shivering, scared that dads gonna get through, but after a moment he stops.

i go onto my phone and see the uncleared notifications from matt. i click on them.

"hey hon" i jumped still scared of him a lil.

"hey dad" he was calm and acted like nothing happened.

"just letting you know i'm going on a small work trip," a wave of relief left my body.

"okay dad, see you soon" "bye honey"

i hear the car pull out of my driveway and his headlights shine through my window. i get the courage to get up and go to the pantry. i open the door and see food. gummy worms which remind me of nick. i grab them with my left hand and see the ring on my finger. tears well in my eyes. what have i done?

i get to my room and grab my phone.

matty 🥰 is facetiming......

i answer and see matts angry face looking at me.

"what the actual fuck ameliah!" "im sorry okay!"

"why didn't you call me back baby? ive been hella worried abt u, i thought you might wanna call off the engagment!"

"im just..." i burst out into tears. "oh no melly! dont cry!"

"i-u-h-m..." i struggled to put words together. idk if i was ready to tell anyone yet. but i feel obliged to tell matt. he is my future husband.

"its okay baby im coming over, can chris and nick come too?" "n-n-no" i stutter, i just want him.

"okay, ill be there soon" he kisses the phone and i hang up wiping my eyes dry.

time skip <3

i hear a knock at the front door. i get up slowly and slug to the door. as soon as i open it he sweeps me up in a giant warm hug. all feels safe. like everything that happened had gone away. but as soon as he let go it all came flooding back and tears rolled down my face again.

matts pov-

"ew u stink? have you showered in the past few days?" "yeah i'm just wearing the same clothes"

"gross, lets get you something clean," i grabbed her hand and dragged her to the bedroom.

i throw her a baggy shirt, some sweatpants and i find my favourite hoodie shoved in the corner.

"hey this is mine!" i pick it up and put it on the bed.

she giggles cutely. i love it when she smiles. i walk out the room and shut the door. "call if you need help baby!"

a few minutes go by and i hear grunting "matty?!" she calls out to me. walk in and realise she looks shockingly pale. "can you help me?" "ofc baby"

I pull her dirty shirt off, revealing green and purple bruises, on her boobs, shoulders and arms. "mels? wha-how?"

"i-i cant-" i scoop her up in a soft hug, trying not to hurt her anymore then she already is.

"who did this to you melly?"

"no."

"its okay if you're not ready baby, just i want to help you"

she nods, i let go of her body. it feels skinnier than usual. "have you eaten any food?"

she shakes her head as i slide her shirt on. i pull down her pants and see more bruises. tears fill my eyes. once she's dressed i lay her down in bed, i lay behind her making her my little spoon.

we doze off together, i keep my arm around her, not too tight tho, i don't want to hurt her.

"dad" she whispers "what did you say baby?"

"dad, it was dad"

i'm gonna fucking kill him.
