Josh's P.O.V

"Okay...here I go. It all started when I was 3. I have an older brother name Jacob who is 3 years older than me, so he's 20. Anyways, at the time we had parents. But they did drugs. They knew what they were doing but they couldn't stop. So they put us up for adoption so they could go to Rehab. I was confused but Jacob, he was pretty mature for his age, so he knew what was going on. Well we were sent to this family, the one I'm living with now, and at first they were great! Until I hit 13 and Jacob was 16. They started harassing us and being abusive. It wasn't that bad because Jacob always told them off for us. Then he graduated and left for College. Luckily he's in downtown. Well they started abusing me even more and that was when I was 16. So last year. At first it wasn't that bad, just a few bruises. But today...today was bad. I have never been 10 minutes late and well you see what happened. But before I would always go to the guys place but their parents got suspicious so now I'm here. And I'm grateful you're letting me stay," I said. Alisha stayed quiet the whole time. She smiles when I'm done.

"I'm sorry you've had a rough past.I hope you work through it. And you're welcomed here anytime," she says.

Wow. I never knew a person could be so nice!

Alisha's P.O.V

Wow, his life was almost like mine! I sigh and get up.

"Well its uh getting late, we better get to bed," he nods. I was a about to walk to the door but Josh grabbed my hand.

"Where are you going?" he ask.

"Um...I'm getting some pillows and blankets for my bed..." I say. He shakes his head.

"Um no. Your bed is already ready," Josh says pointing at the bed.

"Yeah that's where you're sleeping," I say.

"And you!" he says. I look at him confused and then my eyes went wide.

"Oh no Mr. Bad Boy! We are not doing--" but he cut me off.

"Chill Princess! We are just sleeping side by side together!" he says. I sigh, no point in arguing. I get in beside Josh and snuggle with my teddy bear.

"Um don't you want to take of your makeup?" Josh asks.

"Um its all off," I say. He looks at my face.

"Holly shi-sheez, your face is flawless!" he says. I giggle.

"Thanks!" I say. And then I fall into a load of darkness...

----------

You think you're so innocent? Well you're not! You are big, at and ugly! I can't believe I was stupid enough to call you my friend. No my best friend! I just needed a girl best friend but now I don't. So you can run along Loser! I don't need you anymore!

"Stacey? STACEY?"

"She isn't here sweety! She's probably dead by now! Your turn!"

"You're stupid, ugly, crazy and we are ashamed to call you our daughter!"

I jolt up gasping for air. I'm sweating all over! My head throbbed and I felt a few tears come down. I wipe them away and silently scolding me for almost letting all the tears out. Josh wakes up to see me breathing heavily and I look like a mess. I sobbed.

"Hey? What's wrong?" he says stroking my hair.

Open up to him! Do what Danger told you! My heart tells me me. I sigh.

"Its time I open up to you. At this point you're the close's thing to a friend as I have..." I say.

"Hey! You don't have to tell me anything! Not if you aren't ready" he says softly. I shake my head.
