Katie

I hopped into my fathers truck and looked towards the house. I frowned a little when I saw him walk out of the house. He had on his boots and that million dollar smile (I hate to admit that). But mine quickly faded when I saw a beer in his hand and a cigarette in his other. He promised me he would stop almost a week ago.

"Hey dad you ready to go to the mall with me?" I winked at him.

"Only for you darling." He smiled back.

I scoffed and put on my seat belt. We started driving into town blaring our music and I pretended to not be upset.

My phone went off.

Blake: Hey can u pick me up from my house?

Me: Ya be there in a sec. And I need to talk to u.

"Hey daad?" I dragged out the word dad.

He sighed, "Yes darling?"

"Can we pick up Blake really quick?" I said closing my eyes. You see Blake is my best friend and my dad hates him. He thinks that we're going to end up dating or something but I don't know. I mean I like Blake but it would be weird, dating him.

I was snapped out of my thoughts , "I guess we could." My dad let out a sarcastic sigh.

Thanks dad, I needed that right now. I thought to myself but I only said thank you out loud. I am kind of mad at my dad right now. Last night he came home drunk and he reeked of smoke. He usually hits me at least twice every night but last night for the first time he tried to sexually touch me. I was astonished at the action. He never went that far. I fought the tears I felt welling up in my eyes back. We pulled into Blake's driveway.

Me: We're here.

I saw Blake walking outside and I immediately got out and hugged him. He was surprised at first but then hugged me back. My dad awkwardly cleared his throat. Blake quickly pulled back and his cheeks turned slightly pink. I giggled and climbed into the bed of the truck with Blake.

As soon as my dad started the engine I turned to Blake, tears forming slightly in my eyes. Blake looked at me laughing but his face fell as soon as he saw my eyes. He hugged me without saying anything. I felt these amazing sparks along my chest and body but I ignored them.

I sobbed harder into his chest and he held me tighter. I stopped sobbing and tried to catch my breath. I looked up at Blake and he had pain in his beautiful ocean blue eyes. I watched his gorgeous black hair spin slightly in the breeze as we stopped at a stop sign.

"What happened." He said sternly.

"Last night my father tried to rape me I think but I wasn't going to let him take it that far." I said looking down at my hands.

I looked back up and Blake was shaking with rage. Blake was seventeen and could easily kick my "dads" ass. Note the sarcasm as I say dad. I looked into his eyes once more and saw anger, hatred, and passion.
