Save me from myself

School

WARNING. STOP READING WHEN I SAY IF YOU DON'T LIKE READING ABUSE.

Cassia's POV

I slammed my hand down on my alarm clock and sighed. Another day in hell. I swung my legs out the bed and stood up. I grabbed a towel from the rack and jumped in the shower. After I climbed out I looked into my wardrobe for something suitable to wear. I pulled out my skinny jeans and the Jack Wills hoodie that Austin had brought be for my birthday, and a plain white, long sleeved t-shirt. I quickly changed, stuffing my hoodie in my bag and looked at my self in the mirror. Subconsciously picking out my flaws, thighs are too big, feet to big, teeth too crooked, too many spots, ugly face. The list could go on for ever. I sighed and quickly raked a brush through my dull blonde hair that used to shine so bright. I sighed once more before silently going down stairs and set out breakfast for Jack and grabbing my bag. Just as I was about to leave Austin came down the stairs, sleep still in his eyes. "Did you have breakfast?" He asked. Daring me with his eyes to lie. I sighed and grabbed an apple. I took a bite and replied sarcastically "happy now?" I didn't wait for an answer before walking out and started walking to hell aka school. I plugged in my head phones to my iPhone 4, curtesy of the inheritance money from my parents. I pressed shuffle and stuffed my phone back in my pocket as I started the long walk to school.

I looked up to see I'd arrived at school. I walked through the gates with my head down, ignoring the abusive comments. I walked up to my locker and opened it just to be soaked with ice cold water. Everybody around be started laughing and some had even recorded it. I sighed and took my now slightly damp books from my locker before going to the bathroom to change. I'm glad I put my hoodie in my bag. I left the bathroom and went straight to my home room and sat in the back left corner as usual, away from everyone else. I put my head on the desk and started doodling in my notepad, ignoring the other students who started to trickle into the classroom as the bell rang. Mrs Kingsley walked into the room and started to take the register. "Miss Brown" she said sharply. "Here Miss" I mumbled in reply before tuning back out. I awoke from my day dream as the shrill sound of the bell echoed around the classroom. I stood quickly and darted out of the room. I hurried across to the bathrooms to hide for the next ten minutes. Once I was pretty sure everybody was in class I left the bathroom and walked round to the back of the school. I chucked my bag over the fence before climbing it myself. I didn't do this all the time. Just most of it. I wandered away from the school and found myself in the town centre. I went into Starbucks. The one thing I did allow my self. It was just too good to resist. I ordered my usual, double chocolate chip frappachino and slid into a booth near the back. I finished the last mouthful of my drink before leaving to do a bit of shopping. First on the list was hollister. I have a job which pays well and I don't have anything to spend it on so the money just piles up. I also have loads of money from my inheritance. My parents were kinda rich. I was just leaving hollister when I slammed into someone. I went stumbling backwards and was just about to fall when the person I bumbef into caught me. "Thanks" I mumbled, not bothering to look up. The stranger pulled me closer and whispered into my ear "shouldn't you be at school?" I looked up at the face and rolled my eyes as I saw just who almost knocked me over. It was the famous Ky Jackson. How cliché is that? "Ah, but so should you" I whispered back. "You've got me there" Ky laughed and pulled away. I smiled up at him. "Wanna go grab some lunch?" he asked. "Uh- um- I've already eaten..." I stuttered not looking at his face. "Cass, tell me the truth" he said softly. I glared up at him. "Why can't somebody just believe me when I say something?! I'm not totally and completely fucked up! Sometimes I have good days, and you know what? Today just happens to be one of those days!" I stormed off in the opposite direction. It wasn't his fault. I knew that. But I was just sick of everybody thinking I'm lying. I may have been lying this time but I don't always. But still. Nobody ever fucking believes me.

I walked along the ever familiar street I lived on and down to the house at the end of the street. Yeah we were that house. I opened the door to find Austin stood at the bottom of the stairs with his arms crossed. Shit. {I was going to leave it here but I'm not that mean lol} "So... how was school?" he asked, far too innocently if you asked me. "Fine" I replied slowly, shooting him a questioning look. "Really? well that interesting as I got a phone call from the principal earlier on saying that a teacher had seen you climbing the fence after period one. Is this true?" he replied. Do I lie or do I tell the truth. Lie. "Well they must have made a mistake because that definitely wasn't me" I shrugged and slid round Austin into the kitchen. "Ok, I believe you, I was just checking", He called after me. I immediately ran at him and wrapped him in a massive hug. I tried to say love you but it came out as a muffled mess as my face was buried in his shirt. Why did I have to be so damn fucking short! He laughed. "May I ask why you are suddenly telling me you love me?" I pulled away and said "because you believed me" before walking back into the kitchen to prepare tonight's meal. Macaroni cheese.

The door to my room flung open and an angry Jack stormed into my room. I glanced at the clock. 18:21. Shit. I'd fallen asleep and hadn't taken out the dinner or done any of my chores.
{ STOP READING IF YOU DON'T LIKE ABUSE. CARRY ON WHEN YOU FIND A MESSAGE SAYING YOU CAN CARRY ON READING}
He grabbed me by my hair and staged me to the top of the stairs. He threw me effortlessly down the stairs and laughed when I screamed because I smacked my head against the wall. Austin's door shook. Jack had locked him in. Jack slowly started down the stairs, grinning evilly at me. I scrambled to my feet and made a dash for the front door but in seconds I felt Jacks hot breath on the back of my neck. "You shouldn't have done that" he whispered before pulling into the kitchen and closing the door. He slammed me against the wall and punched me over and over again in th face. As he let go I slid to the floor. Big mistake. I felt his foot connect to my stomach as I curled into a ball. All I could feel was the sharp, repeated pain of his foot connecting with my body. I lay on the floor, breathing heavily as the torture finally stopped. Or so I thought. The next thing I knew I was being dragged back up to my feet and a knife being plunged into my stomach. I gasped as the blood started seeping out of the wound. Jack let go of the knife and laughed at my pain before walking out of the room. I started to lose consciousness, but faintly in the background I could've sworn I heard wood splintering.
