Everlasting Love

Chapter 1: Walking Home

Alex's POV:
I was sitting in my room texting my friend Shawn. We have been really close friends since kindergarten and he was like a brother to me, but secretly I've always had a little crush on him.

My older brother, Chase was in the bathroom getting ready to go pick up my parents from the airport. They have been gone all week and it was sort of nice because my dad abused me.

He was always so angry and I don't even know why, but it always had something to do with me. One time I was putting some makeup on and he didn't like that, so he slapped me in the face. The only reason I was putting on makeup was because I had bruises from where he hit me the day before. My mother didn't really care though. She just lets it happen.

Suddenly Chase barged into my room and yelled, "Come on we're going to be late." I got up and we rushed to the car. I knew some how our tardiness was going to be my fault.

-------------

When we arrived at the airport my mom and dad were already waiting. I was so scared to walk over to them, but I toughened up and walked over.

My dad had the meanest look on his face and then and there I knew it was all my fault.

Chase never gets in trouble or abused. My dad loves him, it's just so annoying sometimes.

I started to say sorry, but my dad cut me off. He started whisper screaming at me. He yelled, "Why were you late?" and he only directed it to me even though I was ready way before Chase ever was.

I started to say it was Chase, but then all of a sudden he grabs my phone out of my hand and screamed, "Was it because you were too busy texting Shawn, huh?"

My dad hated Shawn and me, but he loved Chase!

After about a 5 minute discussion about why it was all my fault my dad finally said its time to go home. I said "finally" under my breath and surprisingly my dad heard me. Great.

He yelled at me some more and then said you're walking home! I was going to complain, but I knew it would just back fire on me.

My mom and Chase didn't even say anything. They didn't even try to talk my dad out of making me walk home. I was so pissed at my whole family.

My so called "family" left me here at the airport all alone. I didn't even know where I was going. I didn't even have my phone because my dad took it away. I couldn't even text Shawn. I had nothing.

-------------

It was about a 30 minute walk so I thought I should start heading towards home. I was so mad that I ran out the door and knocked into someone.

I apologized then l got a real good look at him. He had blonde hair and the prettiest of eyes.

I was really embarrassed then because I just made a fool out of myself in front of this really cute boy.

He said, woah there, why are you in such a hurry?" I told him everything that just happened and then all of a sudden he offers me a ride!

I didn't even know who he was for goodness sakes! I didn't even know his name! So I asked him. He said his name was Matthew Espinosa. Then he asked me mine. I replied smiling, "Alexandria Diáz, but people call me Alex.

He then told me I had the prettiest name. I blushed and said thankyou. He then offered me a ride again.

I finally gave in and said yes because I really didn't feel like walking and he seemed nice enough.

He walked me to his car and opened the passenger side door for me like a gentlemen, but as soon as we started driving towards my house I knew my dad was going to be angry about this.
