Sorry I haven't uploaded in a while. My deepest apologies. ~Bre

Elle~

Pulling the front door open, I jumped back as I saw Father stand in the doorway.

"Where were you?" He ordered.

Oh no.

"I-I was having lunch." I stuttered.

"With who?" He snapped.

"N-No one, Father."

"You lie."

Father dragged me into the house, slamming the door, and throwing me to the floor.

"I think the correct answer was that you were eating with Alice." He sneered.

He saw me, Father saw me. Oh god.

"I-I'm sorry." I stuttered.

Father laughed darkly, his face turning into a evil grin.

"I've had enough of you." Father hissed.

Father marched into the kitchen, and grabbed a butcher's knife.

"It's about time you were gone from this world, Elle." Father growled.

I felt my eyes start to tear up.

"Father please, don't do this, I beg of you." I sobbed.

"Too late." Father growled, starting to walk closer to me.

Quickly, I got up and started to run for the back door.

"Get back here, you filthy scum!" He yelled.

I flung open the door, and started to run for the woods. It was starting to get dark, the sun was already behind the trees.

I heard Father trying to catch up to me, but then I heard him yell, "Never come back!"

Still afraid he was coming after me, I kept running, farther and farther away from my home.

After I had been running for a while, I felt something cold fall on my nose. During my escape from Father, I had thrown my coat off me, and my hat had fallen off my head a ways back. Soon enough, snow was coming down like it was raining. I could barely see. Shelter. I have to find shelter. Shivers flowed throughout my body, and my teeth wouldn't stop chattering. Soon enough, I couldn't feel my legs, and I fell. Hypothermia was taking me into its clutches. I tried tucking myself into a ball, but my arms no longer listened to me.

So here I am, laying on the ice cold earth, sprawled out on my side. I closed my eyes, waiting for my death, and as I started falling into a deep sleep, I felt a pair of hands pick me up.

Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe.. let the romance begin!
