The first thing that came in my mind when I saw him was, where the hell is Justin?! Because either my dad saw him and beat the hell out of him, or well.. Justin left me.
"Where have you been?" He gave me a look of disgust, i had to come up with some sort of lie.. "I-I was a-at my f-friend Riley's house.." My dad looked a little shocked when I said friend.
Because, well let's be honest.. My only real friend is Kate and it's been that way for awhile now. He probably knew I was lying because I never said anything about her before.
"Who's Riley, and why were you at HIS house without permission?" He raised his voice when he said 'his'. I laughed a little in my head, but not out loud.
"It-it's a girl, and I m-met her last w-week at s-school.." I trailed off a little at the mention of school..
"Ok well dis I give you damn permission to go to HER house?" He emphasized the word 'her' because I corrected him last time.. "I t-thought you were out of t-town"
Next thing I know I'm on the cold wooden floor, my cheek throbbing. "Bitch!" He screamed at me. He kicked me in the stomach multiple times.
Was it sad to say that I'm used to it? I could barely feel the pain in my stomach anymore,the pain in my heart was much worse. How could Justin just leave like that?
I honestly wasn't paying attention until I felt something burning into my skin, I looked up and winced at what I saw. My dad stuck his cigarette bud into my arm.
I screamed in pain, I felt blackness take over. Soon I was completely out of it all.

I woke up to a sharp pain in my stomach, I lifted my shirt up and saw giant bruises covering my whole body. The memories of last night soon flooded back.
I was still on the floor and my bag was put back in my closet while my clothes were scattered everywhere. I guess someone had another tantrum last night..
I heard my phone vibrate on my desk and I made my way to my desk while crawling. I winced in pain while in the process, I looked through my messages and noticed I had two from Kate and six from Justin.
I looked at Kate's first because I still had some unresolved issues with Justin. He left me and went god knows where while I got a beating! But what hurst the most is that, he promised I wouldn't get hurt anymore.
He promised that I was safe with him, but he broke his promises. Every single one of them!! I was furious at him, my heart was aching just as bad as my stomach, cheek, and arm.
My dad was either at work or on the couch knocked out, I prefer him buried in the ground. (A/N I wouldn't actually ever say that about my dad, it's just the story)
I decided not to think about it anymore, not just the beating but, Justin. I looked at Kate's messages.
Hey, we need to talk!!! -Kate
Helloooo?? Scarlett Marie!! -Kate
I don't know what she could possibly want right now, I quickly replied to her with a simple yet effective, text. (1D moment, sorry...)
What do you wantttt!?!? -Scarlett
I then set my phone on my bed and slowly got up, well at least attempted to get up. The pain was too much so I quickly sat back down. I guess the floor is my bed for the next week.
I jumped when I heard a small 'clink' come from my window. I tuned around and saw Justin in my room, I don't even want to know how he got through that window.
