Charlie's POV
Night timeOne year ago...
That's how long it's been since Phantom R has disappeared. Back then everything was okay (well not really seeing as a thief was on the loose) I even starting patching things up with father.but it was a lost cause.he's starting going to the bar more,and comes home every night way past drunk.And that wasn't the worst part.oh no,the worst part was what he did to me.
He became angry at me constantly,blaming ME for everything thats happened.moms death,him being fired,and the entirety of Phantom R. He started hitting me,starving me,and...and...
He touched me
I became his punching bag,and he did things to me.I've been failing school recently because I've had to always clean up after his late party's with his friends.My whole life is a train wreck,im emotionally,verbally,physically, and sexualy abused by my own father.when I go outside I have to put up the happy act as my father calls it and pretend like nothing is wrong,when in reality everything is wrong.
And I've finally decided that I cant go through this anymore,and to end it,permanently.And here I am,on the top of the eifeil tower ready to commit suicide.I'm crying as I make my way over the gate and ready to jump.and my last words "I'm finally going to do something right". Then I jumped of
Then I realized how much of an idiot I am.I frantically swung around in the air,desperate to grab something to hold on for dear life " I'm not ready for this"I say seeing as no mental preparation can help me for what's to come.I can't die yet,but it's too late.I see the ground getting closer and braced my self.When I hit something it didn't feel like ground at all,but I didn't dare open my eyes thinking that this is what death is like.your pulled into believing your safe,and then your dead.
"Miss,are you okay?" I here.out of curiosity I open my eyes to see a red haired 16 year old boy looking at me with concern in those brown eyes.I look down to see I am in his arms and that he just saved my life.if this was any other moment,I would have smacked him in the face for holding on to me,but I almost died and was grateful but very scarred.I responded by crying into his shoulder."don't worry,your okay now,just let it all out"he said.the word comforted me and 10 minutes later I was done crying.
"Th..Thank you ..." "Raphael" he said with a slight smile."nice to meet you Raphael,my names Charlotte but I prefer charlie."I said.I noticed I was still in his arms and he seemed to notice too.blushing I pulled away from his embrace."Charlie what happened?"rather than telling the truth i told him I wasn't paying attention and fell of the tower.it started raining and I dreaded having to go home."hey you seem pretty cold. here,have my sweater"he said.I quickly put on the clothing and asked "why did who help a person you didn't even know". His answer?" Because you seemed like a person in need.and your not a stranger anymore,your my friend now."
Friend. It's been awhile since I even thought of one,and yet Raphael already considers me his friend.
