Abuse & Detailed scenes of drug use ‼️

My head throbs painfully as my father slams me down onto the ground. I groan, my body hitting the floor with a loud thud. My brothers aren't home, leaving me unprotected and alone. I barely register what my father is screaming at him as he repeatedly kicks his foot into my stomach.

I asked Ezra to drop me off at the end of the street, but he didn't listen so now I have to face the consequences. I don't blame him, he couldn't have known. So I take the hits without a struggle, knowing it'll be over much sooner if I stop resisting.

When he's done, I lay on the ground completely still. My head hurts and I feel something warm dripping down my cheek. I weakly life my hand before pulling it back.

Blood. So much blood. It's everywhere, my fingertips coated in the crimson liquid and my mouth flooding with the metallic taste. I can faintly hear a door slam open and 4 sets of footsteps rush towards me. My brothers.

Ivan, my oldest brother, crouches down in front of me and barks some orders at the others. My father must've left. I feel my head being lifted and places on Ivan's lap, making me slightly whine in pain.

Ivan quietly hushes me, calling out to the second oldest, Alex, to hurry up. I don't know what Alex should hurry up with, but I feel myself getting really drowsy. "Blair, stay awake I swear to God." Ivan grunts, looking up again to yell at Alex some more.

Alex sits down next to us a minute later, bandages and cloth's with warm water on them to clean the cuts on my face, back and stomach. My two youngest brothers, Damien and Dmitri get send upstairs because Ivan didn't want them seeing me like this even though they're older then I am.

Alex quietly cleans the blood off of me, and I feel grateful for my brothers as Ivan bandages the worst cuts before lifting me off the ground and supporting my head as he brings me close to him.

"What happened, Blair?" He breathes, carefully carrying me up the stairs. "Remember that guy from the cafe I told you about?" I ask quietly. "He dropped me off at home 'cuz I missed my bus and he opened the door of the car for me but our father saw that so he beat me up and called me a whore." I sum it up quickly, my voice slightly wavering.

They both don't answer me but I can feel the anger radiating off of them, Ivan's hands tightening around me ever so slightly before loosening them again.

"Don't let his words get to you, Blair." Alex says before Ivan lays me down on my bed. Alex tucks me in even though I'm 23, kissing my forehead before they both leave.

My whole body is aching and my head is still throbbing, and I know I promised my brothers I would try to stop. But I can't. I take the baggie out of the wallet hidden in my bedside table, opening it and hesitantly taking out a few tabs. LSD.

I test them and place them on my tongue carefully, feeling the effects getting to me.

My head might just hurt even more than yesterday, I groan as I sit up. I look at the mirror right in front of my bed and look at myself, my hair tangled and damp from sweat as I try to push it out of my face. Dark eye bags under my eyes, looking even more dark in contrast to my pale skin.

I groan and fall back into my bed and close my eyes again, I don't have work until 9 pm tonight as I'm working the night shift so I have enough time to meet up with my best friend and recover from my come down.

I stand up after laying down and scrolling to TikTok for two hours straight, walking closer to the mirror to inspect the damage on my face. A cut cheek bone and a dark blue bruise right underneath my left eye. I see not much swelling has appeared on my face so I cake on a layer of foundation and do the rest of my make-up, applying fake lashes to top the look.

I dress myself, a tight fitted white shirt with a low cut, exposing some of my cleavage. A mini skirt with Gucci tights. I layer them with furry gray leg warmers right on top. Mary Jane's on my feet and a Ushanka on my head to match my leg warmers.

I look at myself in the mirror, making sure my back and stomach are fully covered before walking downstairs and sitting down at the table besides Dmitri. Dmitri is the youngest of all my brothers, being twenty-five. But I swear deep inside he's still 16 as he wraps his arm around my shoulders and drags me closer to him.

I groan as he kisses the side of my head, playfully tickling my side making a laugh bubble up to the surface.

After eating breakfast with my father still nowhere to be seen, I stand up and wave to my brothers, saying my goodbyes before walking outside to Amaline's car. She is my best friend, she has been for years.

I climb into the passenger's seat, turning up the radio when I hear Happier Than Ever by Billie Eilish blasting from the speakers. We both start singing, well more yelling, along with the lyrics. My throat feels sore by the time we're done. We both lean back in our seats as the wind plays with my hair through the open window as we race down the freeway.

"You're mad hot today, Blair." Amaline says, looking over at me as we speed past fields filled with flowers and high grasses until we reach our spot.

We sit down on one of big rocks surrounding a big, clear watered lake.
We found this spot years ago, and we started going here whenever we hung out.

Water plants are covering the first few feet of water and draped over some of the rocks, water lilies decorating the middle of the lake with ducks and swans floating around them.

The atmosphere is calm and quiet, only the sounds of crickets around us and the soft whistle of the wind.

We sit here for hours, talking and laughing before rain starts falling from the sky. We both stand up and fly back into the car as quickly as we can while laughing.

With Amaline I'm the happiest, best version of myself. And I truly hope this feeling never leaves me as we peacefully drive back to her place as rises the moon by Liana Flores fills the comfortable silence.
