*TW * abuse

   I stood up franticly "d-dad I dont know what you mea-" i was cut of by getting slapped so hard my ear was ringing. He kept hitting me he shoved me so hard i  hit my head on the side of my bed  once i was down on the floor he kicked me in the ribs and evantally left he took his beer he had set on my night stand. and took a look at me crying on the ground. 

  '' you worthless piece of shit'' he left and slammed the door on his way out. i was crying breathing heavily. " i cant do this anymore i sobbed to myself i cant live like this.

I reached for my phone to call sophia i unclocked my phone with shaky hands ''s-oph can i please s-stay the night'' i chocked out

''Yea of course are you okay?'' she said in a concern tone

''y-yea im fine'' i said still crying

i didnt bother packing a bag sophia and i always share clothes anyway. sophia could drive her parents are seperated and her dad lives on a farm so she has a farmers permit.  i anxtioly waited i thought of why my dad is mad at me what did i do wrong im  the one who cooks im the one who cleans he just goes to bars hits me and yells at carson i hate him i hate him so much

I looked out the window and saw soph's car i snuck out my window and ran to her car.  "uhh im so glad to getout of here i hate this stupid house. hey do you think we could stop at carson friends house. i looked at her she had a stunned look on her face. '''what?''  i asked   "y-your face'' she said sypatheticly. she grabbed a box of tissues from the glove conpartment. she poured a little bit of her water on them lifted my chin she gently clean the cuts on my face.

we started driving to carsons friend's house (Aiden) i pulled out my phone and put the directions on he was only a few minutes away.  "turn left on bradly street the first house on the right''. i said to soph.

We pulled in and i hopped out of the car and rang the door bell. A women who was just a few inches taller than me answered. she had blonde hair that went just past her shoulders she looked like she was in her mid thirties she was pretty . ''hey are you hear for Carson'' she asked in a cheerful tone.

''about that so i was wondering if he could maybe stay the rest of the weekend were kinda having some family problems at home. i mean if not i completly understa-''. she cut me off. ''of course he can sweet kid we love having him.'' I smiled thank you so much.  " do you have a safe place to stay dear?. she asked in a concerned tone. Yes im staying at my friends house. I said reassuring her. ''ok good.'' she said releived have a good night. i said and left. Carson and Aiden had been friends for a while his mom over heard Carson telling her son what goes on at his house

i got back into sophia's car there was still one thing on my mind. What did i do to my dad this time he hits me but only when i dont do somthing he likes.

i went on my phone and the first thing i saw was a snap for drew i perked up and opened it it was just picture of him with sun glasses he was just probably doing his streaks but he looked so good doing it.

''uhhggg he so hot'' i said showing soph the snap. she glanced away from the wheel. '' he's alright'' she said. i rolled my eyes. we pulled into sophs driveway her parents wern't home niethers was her brother but i was perfectly fine with that we got up to her room and sat down on her bed.

i felt my phone buzz i looked up at it my self harm tracker app had alerted me.  that will last long i sarcasticlly thought to myself.

A FEW HOURS LATER 

it was about 10 i was tired one weird thing about me is for a teenager i go to bed pretty early. ''im so tired'' i said dramaticly. ''Aww you poor thing'' soph said jokingly. I chuckeld abd nudged her with my hand.

i felt my phone ringing again  i looked and it was an uknown number i answered it.

''Cassie'' a voice said.  ''Carson'' i asked knowing it was him. " yeah its me are you safe your not at home are you?''
''no im at sophs'' i said. 'good just wanted to make sure i dont want dad to hit you again.'' "i alright get some sleep now love ya'' i said. ''Love you too'' he said in a soft tone and hung up.

i felt bad for carson he's way too young to have too worry about that. i wanted to cut that thought away but i didn't have my blade so i just pinched my thigh as hard as i could through my pajama pants. 

and with that i fell asleep
