You Are My Muse(Luke Hemmings Fan Fiction)

Chapter 11: Leave Me

I harshly brush my shoulder against his and run out the door.

"Sam! Sam! Sam-wait!" a voice kept echoing behind me, but I still ran.

"Wait! Stop!" I didnt want to.

A firm grip wrapped around my waist and spun me causing me to fall straight onto the ground.

"LET GO OF ME CALUM" I hissed but didnt let go. I pushed him but didnt budge

"STOP RESISTING DAMN IT"

"Calum I dont need this right now! Just leave me alone!"

"Shut up Sam! You cant just keep running away from people like that! What if you get hurt?" Calum still yelled at me but I refused to listen

"Good" I mutter.

"FUCK SAM"

"FUCK OFF CALUM. Just stop okay?! I'm done with Luke, I'm done with everybody. Alright? Just- Just leave me the fuck alone, alright? I'll see all of you in school. It's bad enough that I have to go back to that little shit place, but this whole Steven shit is getting on my nerves and I cant deal with it right now" Calum released his grip from me and I watched as his face softened with pitty. 

"Just forget this ever happened alright? It's not a big deal and I dont want it to be." without another word I got to my feet and walked home thinking I would be safe there.  

Wrong.

I stepped inside to see my mother holding a beer bottle in one hand and a cigarette in the other. She looked like a terrible mess and I didnt know what to say. I thought she had stopped drinking.

"Sam where the fuck have you been?" she yelled. "Get upstairs to your room right now!" I flinched at her words. My mom is back. I stood at the door  

and She came charging at me, cornering me. I looked down at my fee not wanting to look at her.  

She forcefully lifted my face and I could smell alcohol from her mouth.  

"I said get the fuck upstairs!" she raised her had and slapped me hard on the face.  

I ran from her, running into my room shutting the door but that didnt stop her from following me.  

She cursed at me, "WHY ARE YOU SLAMMING DOORS AND RUNNING FROM ME?" she barged in and swung her hand into my face repeatedly. I felt weak, I backed up and hit my back on the dresser. Once again, she swung.  

But missed.  

Her face started to get red and she swung her beer bottle against the wall causing it to break everywhere. "You're worthless." not another word coming from her, she attacked me with the bottle, cutting my arms with it. After a few more hits in the ribs, arms and face, I blacked out.

I woke up the next morning on the floor next to broken glass. I picked up my phone as it beeped. It was a message from Sarah. I unlocked my phone and realized that her text wasnt the only message I had gotten last night. 8 missed calls and 10 messages from Luke. 6 missed calls from Ashton and 8 messages. 4 calls from Sarah and 6 messages. 2 calls from Calum and 9 messages. 10 calls from Michael and 3 messages. Wow.

I look at the time and realized that I had 30 minutes to get to school. I jump from the floor and quickly got myself ready. I took a last look in the mirror touching my face lightly, running my hand over the black eye I had. My make up covered most of the bruising but you can still see it if you look close enough.

I made it just in time for class. I ran my way in but quickly halted when I got into class. Of course my friends sat in their usual seats. I was unsure if I should sit with them or not but I ended up doing so. I took my spot next to Calum and shoved my head into my arms.

"where were you last night?" Calum whispers.

I didnt answer. It was better that way

"we were worried about you" he said leaning closer to me.

"Ms. Jameswell," my head shot up as the teacher called me. "Head up please!" he instructed. He turned back to the board and I bury my face into my hands.

"Are you alright?" Calum wasnt getting the hint that I didnt want to talk.

I turn my head toward him and look at him expressionless.

He squinted his eyes and looked at me closely. "Why do you have a bruise?"

The teacher turned around and yelled at Calum. "Mr. Hood! Do you want a detention?"  

Calum went silent and the lesson continued.

Thats how it was through out the day of school. I avoided everybody during lunch and ended up sitting by myself outside. 

Towards the end of final class, Calum again, was sitting next to me, like he always does in each of my classes. I caught Luke staring at me. I looked at him quickly and paid closer attention as the maths teacher was explaining fractions.  

I couldnt focus because of Calums constant foot tapping. "would you stop that" i mutter. He stopped then looked at me, carefully.

"tell me what happened last night." he took his finger and ran it across my arm, noticing my sleeves were rolled up, exposing my bruises.

"none of your buisness" i said as I drop down my arms to my lap.

"Quit being ridiculous, I'm trying to help"

"i dont NEED your help" i said a little too loudly.

**

Later on that day I went straight home. My mom wasnt home, thank God. She was probably fucking around with a dude like always. At least shes barely home.

I lay myself on the couch letting my aching body unfold itself. I fell fast asleep but was awoken by a knock, followed by the door bell ringing. I made my way cautiously toward the door, thinking it was the police who had somehow found out about my bruises because somebody at school snitched. I held my breath as I opened the door.

"What are you doing here?"

"I just wanted to see if you were okay.." Michael said as he scratched the back of his neck

"Well I'm fine," I almost shut the door on him but his hand stopped it

"You're not fine, I know you're not. Stop telling me lies"
