I wish that I could say that everything went swimmingly at that party and that I'm not crammed in an uncomfortable hospital bed but I can't. I went through hell and somehow came out in one piece; sort of. Physically in one piece, because emotionally I'm about as fragile as the leg lamp from A Christmas Story. I have scars from this shitstorm that no one, except those that were there for it, will ever see. My Ex is the human incarnation of Satan and I don't wish his version of hell on anyone. He, as much as I wish I could say he wasn't, is the cause of this mess.

I bet you're wondering what this mess that I've been talking about even is. Well for starters, My Ex crashed my crush's birthday party when he found out I was invited and it all went downhill from there. He is a violent man and that didn't stop when I left him. In fact, I think it got worse. He would berate me into thinking everything was my fault and conditioned me to feel like nothing. The one thing I could take solace in, at least before this all happened, is that he was never physically violent when we were together.

He found out I was invited to, and would be at, the party and wormed his way in like he always does and quickly ruined everything for everyone. I swear I could hear the record scratch and the gears grind as he began to make his presence known. I won't go into great detail about him or the party right now because that's what the rest of this book is for, but I'll introduce you to some of the other, most important characters. You'll need to know about them before this can officially get started.

For starters, my name is Rosalie Marie Winters. I like to think that I'm a pretty great human in general. I will readily admit that I'm probably the most sarcastic and melodramatic person you will ever meet, but I'm not an asshole like some people. I think that by this point you know exactly who I'm referring to. Up next is my sister Gwendolyn Jay Winters. She is a firecracker like no other. I mean she is so high energy that it's hard to keep up with sometimes. I love her with all my heart though.

My best friend in the universe, Alyce Masters is very important to this story and I can't stress enough how much she's helped me in my life. She and I met during Sophomore year of high school and have pretty much been inseparable ever since. She also happens to be the sister to my crush Jackson Masters. Oh god how do I even start on him? He's the main reason that this story ever happened in the first place to be fair. I don't mean this in a bad way because it definitely sounds that way. I'd argue that he is the most important character next to me. Never in a million years did I think I would be in this position, yet here I am.

Jesus Christ, here's the character I've been dreading introducing. My Ex-Boyfriend/the villain of the story: Braedon Jensen. I shudder at just the thought of him and I want to forget I ever dated him. He is the reason I'm sitting here writing this from my hospital room. I never wish bodily harm on anyone but he is a very special exception to that rule. Let's leave it at, 'If I had a glass of water and he was on fire, I would drink it.' I hate him with every fiber of my being.

The other characters will come out of the woodwork as time goes on but these are the ones you'll need to know right off the bat. They play very important parts here in the beginning and I feel really bad for getting any of them involved with my bullshit problems. None of them had to do what they did but I understand why they did those things. The first character that you'll meet is my sister as she comes in right at the beginning of the story. Actually not quite the beginning, but close enough. I'm going to start a little further back than I originally planned because a lot of the story would make no sense without some background.

I think that about covers it for the prologue/introduction for this story. I've given you all I can really give you without negating the need for this book. You know enough of the characters to follow along for now. All I can give you at this point is a warning about how not PG this book is going to get. I'm going to give you every detail that I can remember which will prove to be quite gruesome in my opinion. I have been through hell and back as I mentioned in the beginning of this prologue and that isn't a pretty sight.

I guess it's high time I let you get on the to rest of the story so go ahead and see how all this mess happened. I'll be waiting for you when you return so I'll let you get on your way. No one's stopping you and I already gave you your obligatory warning for things to come so knock yourself out kid. I've done all I can to prepare you.

Hey there guys! So it's been a long stretch since I've written anything. I've been writing this story in a notebook in my spare time and thought 'Why the fuck shouldn't I post it?' I mean it's not great but it's not horrible either. Read it if you want and make sure to vote and comment so I know what you wonderful bunch of minions are thinking lol.

Welp this is your ruthless writer/ruler signing off for now! Imagine me saluting because I don't have emojis on my desktop.

Bye!!
