Playing The Player

Chapter 4: Like Mother, Like Daughter

As I walked inside it could be heard that there was a bunch of yelling and some screaming. I instantly became scared. Usually when this happens my dad, Clay, is drunk. I slowly approached the stairs. ~

Harry's POV: I had always just played girls off, and dropped them when I got bored, but Kaylynn, Oh my god..... There was something about her..... She was different than all the others.... fragile, you might say, and I was determined to win her trust and her, I am willing to change my player ways just so I can be with her. That beauty..... But the question was HOW I could get to her..... ~End of POV~

I walked up the stairs to his and my Mom's bedroom. I opened the door to see Clay as drunk as hell and my Mom crying. I gained some bravery, took a deep breath, and asked "What is going on in here?!" Clay replied "Kaylynn, go downstairs and stay out of this!" "NO, I will NOT stand here and let you treat my mother like this!!!" I yelled back mad now and a little scared. He looked at me with a glare and answered drunkly, "I SAID STAY OUT OF IT!"  He was now really mad, when he yelled it made me jump, and I spoke a little quieter. "Leave this house and never come back, she has someone much better than you will ever be. And a much better dad at that!" Now I could tell I had really pissed him off, he got closer to me and I trembled but didn't move away. My Mom was the only thing I had, and I was going to protect her. He slammed me up against the wall. If you wanted to know the truth, I was scared as hell but I tried not to show it. He hit me, right across the face leaving a big purple/ black bruise there almost instantly. I winced but didn't cry. I wasn't going to give in or show him weakness. My Mom was trying to pull him off me but wasn't strong enough, I was trapped by him. "Mom! Call Charlie!! Tell her what is going on!! She did as she was told, while he continued to hit me. ~

Charlie's POV: My phone rang whilst I was talking to Liam, it was Kaylynn. I answered. "Hey Kay." "Charlie this is April, Kaylynn told me to call you.... Its Clay!" She sounded panicked. I knew right away was going on. Kaylynn's dad was drunk again and I had to help her. "Okay, I will be there in a minute hang in there! Bye!" I hung up a hint of worry in my voice. "Guys! Kaylynn  is in trouble and we have to help her! The look on Harry's face full of pure worry as he started for the door as fast as possible.
