(Tamara's POV)
The next morning when I woke up I got out of bed and went to the bathroom i don't know why I did it but I got out mums razor and took out a blade making small €uts I cleaned it up and put a bandage on it I went to my room and pulled on some comfy clothes making sure my hoodie was clean and baggy I then went to the sofa and turned on the tv I watched a film then I saw Lucy come out the bedroom she told me good morning and headed to the kitchen to make breakfast we ate then Lucy did my hair we got in the car and drove to the station after an hour I really needed a toilet I was walking there when I felt a hand cover my mouth and yank me back into a room the hand let me go so I slowly turned around and saw it was Tim he grabbed my opposite arm and made a €ut on it with his pocket knife I winced as the cold metal sliced my skin "tell Lucy this was you because she won't believe you and I'll kill her and you'll be sent to foster care" he warned me as he walked out the room i went into the bathroom and put tissue over the cut I pulled my hoodie sleeve over it and went back to the office the next few weeks Tim did the same thing everyday warning me if I told he'd kill Lucy and I'd be sent away it scared me to think of loosing Lucy so I kept quiet when one day as I was sleeping next to Lucy in her bed I rolled over and buried my head in her chest and snuggled into her but she saw something because she stopped smiling and I saw her go to pull down my sleeve I pulled my arm back "Tamara what is that!"lucy demanded "it's nothing"I said hiding my arms under the blanket

"tam baby show me your not in trouble if you cut okay"Lucy reassured me "it wasn't me I swear"I told her but she asked to see so I just pulled down my sleeves "Tamara we're going to need these checking baby"Lucy told me "what no I can't they'll send to that place for mental people again I don't want to go there i didn't do this I didn't!"I said loudly Lucy just sighed "baby I know you did it these are cuts okay"
she said but I started to cry "it wasn't me!"I yelled at her "baby if it wasn't you who was it"she asked "I can't tell the person said if I told they'd kill you"I said staring at the floor "are you lying?"she asked seriously "no I knew you wouldn't believe me the person said you wouldn't believe me"I said sad
"I believe you baby but who did this to you?"she asked "I can't say"I said scared "baby please I promise we'll be safe okay but I need to know who did this to you"Lucy told me I nodded "it was t-tim"I told Lucy she immediately picked me up and drove us to the station she went in greys office and then she came out we saw tim and Lucy ran over to him slapping him over and over yelling at him he just stared at me angrily before walking off we went to mums office and mum had grey put her in for over time she did some cases and then said "baby I know you didn't do it but your cuts really need checking out okay"I didn't answer I just looked down "if we go will you make sure I don't get sent away"I asked looking up at Lucy
"I will I promise tam"Lucy told me I smiled at her
we got in the car and got to the hospital Lucy talked to the person at the front desk then we sat in the waiting room a doctor called us and we got lead to a room the doctor took a look at my cuts and did some stitches then we were aloud to go home after he bandaged my arms we arrived home and i got in bed with mum she had ordered us pizza and we was eating whilst watching a film i snuggled up to Lucy after finishing my food and started to relax a little we finished the film and I fell asleep.

The next morning i woke up and saw it was dark outside I heard the front door open and i saw tim run towards me and sweep me off my feet and then he shoved me in the back of his car and drove away quickly I started crying "take me back to mum!"I yelled at him "no I need Lucy to understand what it's like loosing you"he said a smile formed on his face
We arrived at an abandoned place he took me to the top floor and there was a mattress blanket pillow and small bits of food "here is your new home for the next few weeks get used to it"he said as he slammed the door shut I pushed the mattress into the corner of the room and pulled the blanket tightly around me as I leant in the corner of the walls I felt safer in the corner
I took the food from the floor and took some bites but decided I should save some incase tim didn't come back I must of fell asleep because when I woke up I was drenched in water it was tim he'd thrown a cup of water over me I just wiped it off my face and moved further into the corner "don't hurt me"I begged moving back and cowering down tim just laughed he got up and left the room slamming the door behind him I was scared he would hurt me but no one would hear my screams for help from up here I sat there alone on the wet mattress I couldn't sleep so I just went to the opposite corner and used the pillow and blanket which thankfully wasn't too wet I started thinking about if lucy found me and what her reaction would be knowing Tim was the one who took me I stopped thinking to myself and settled under the blanket as I slumped more against the wall and fell asleep.
