After your little episode, Max decided to take you to the medical tent. When the two of you step inside, you notice no one else is there.

David must be off sending invites.

"You should probably sit down." Max says gesturing to the bed. You go and sit on the edge. He hands you a cup of water, and then sits next to you. "Y/n..what happened back there?" Max is met with silence.

"Max...I'm scared. I don't know what he'll do to me. I mean..look at what he's already done in the past." You lift your arms to show the old scars.

Max holds your wrist and gently kisses the scars. "Y/n, you're safe with me. I won't let him hurt you again. And that's a promise!" You gently smile at the boy with tears flowing from your eyes. You hug the boy and bury your face into the boys neck.

Oh, Max. If only you knew.

It's now 12:50. It's getting closer to 1:00.

I should have fun till then! If today's my last day, then I should spend it with friends.

"Hey Nikki! When do you think your parents are gonna show up?" You say with a fake smile on your face. Nikki doesn't seem to notice. "My mom might get here a little late. I told her I don't want her here long because of what happened last time."

"What happened last time?"
"You don't wanna know." Neil says, appearing from literally no where. "Holy shit Neil! You scared me!" You all laugh until you're interrupted by the sound of the doors opening. It's two men in suits. "Dads!" Erid says running up to the two.

Erids dad's look so cool. But wait, if they're cops or something, maybe I could ask for help. My dad could finally get arrested! I would finally be.....free?

Your face saddens, thinking about the last part.

Where would I even go? I could try to ask Max for help, but his situation with his parents doesn't seem the best either. Maybe I should think this out a bit.

You were in thought for so long, you don't even notice a whole bunch of other adults have shown up. Everyone looks happy, except Harrison's parents who look scared of him for some reason. You glance over and see Preston with his grandma.

"How have you been granny?"
"What?"
"How have you been."
"What? "
"How've you been?"
"Speak up!"
"I SAID HOW HAVE YOU BEEN!"
"How many beans?"

Preston just sighs.

I wonder if that's the reason he's always yelling?
—————————————
It's now 5:00 and still no sign of your father. All the other kids have shown what they've learned at camp, and even Max is helping Harrison with a magic act.

I still don't know how dad's gonna react. I just need to take a walk and clear my head.

You walk away from the stage and head towards the woods. You follow the trail and reach the spot you and Max ran off to. Your face goes red thinking of the memory. You just slightly chuckle and walk towards the lake. You go to the dock and sit. You're sitting with your chin on your knees.

This is calming. The sound of the wind. The water. It's relaxing. I haven't had alone time in a long while.

Snap!

What was that?

"There you are! I've been searching this entire crappy camp for you!" It's your father. You immediately stand up. "What do you want?"
You yell. "What do you mean 'what do I want'? I just want my daughter back." He says with a sick smirk on his face. He takes a step forward and you take a step back.

Crap! I'm trapped. There's no where to run!

"No dad! I'm not leaving! You'll just have to wait until summers over!" Your father stops. "What did you say?"

"Uhh-"

Your father runs toward you and grabs onto your hair. "Oww!" He makes you look at him. "Don't you ever think you can tell me what to do!" You look up at him and spit in his face. He lets go of your hair to wipe his face off. He then grabs your neck and holds you over the water. You try to scratch at his hands, but he doesn't budge.  It's slowly getting harder to breathe. "I want to hear you beg for your life." Your father says holding onto your neck tighter.

I'm not gonna show him that I'm afraid of him!

With the last bit of strength you have left, you kick your father where the sun don't shine. He drops you, and he kneels over holding himself. You crawl away from him and start to cough, trying to catch your breath.

"What the hells wrong with you? Why would you-" your father stops talking when he sees something on his hand. "What is this?" He looks at his hand, and then back at you. Your eyes widen realizing what it is. "Makeup?" He asks. You try to run off but your father grabs your ankle. He starts to pull you closer to him.

"So this is why you left?" He says holding your chin to see your neck. "So you can go and be a slut? And look at the way you're dressed! Begging for all the men's attention!" You try to push your father off you, but he grabs your wrist and pushes it back.

"Oww! Someone help! Max!"
