Lina's POV

"YOU GET BACK HERE AND CLEAN THIS MESS" He shouts as he throws a beer bottle at me, just barely missing my head. I bolt out the front door, grabbing my bag in the process. My right cheek still stings from where he hit me and I can feel the bruise forming under my left eye.

I run down the street and up a familiar driveway. Walking up the steps, I knock on the door. It takes a minute for the door to open. "Hel- oh my god Leelee, what did he do to you?" Sean gasps as he pulls me into a giant bear hug.
"Nothing he hasn't done before" I mumble, whilst snuggling into his chest.
"Let's get you inside" He says, gently guiding me to his living room. I sit on the couch and wipe my eyes. "I'll be right back" He says as he walks into the kitchen, returning with an ice pack. He sits next to me and placing the ice pack on my, now badly bruised, eye. I hiss but stay still.
"So, are you gonna tell me at happened?" He asks softly. I give a slight nod,
"S-So I had j-just gotten home a-and I started m-my chores and my d-dad got home before I-I could finish and t-then he got mad at m-me and he hit me so I-I ran out the door and d-down the street and here w-we are" I stutter. Sean envelopes me in another hug and gently strokes my hair. "You're more then welcome to stay here for the night" He smiles softly. I give a slight nod and sniffle again.

"God dammit! How do you keep beating me!" He shouts. I giggle and shrug as I snipe his character from a window. "Gotcha again! I win! 17-3!" I shout, getting up and jumping around. Sean grumbles and crosses his arms, glaring at me.

"Holy baby jesus it's 1 am and we have school tomorrow" I gasp. "Get up fatty, it's time for bed" I say as I pull Sean's arm in an attempt to get him to stand up. He eventually gets up and we head upstairs and into his room. I head to the bathroom and get changed into my pj's.

I walk into Sean's room to see him passed out on the bed. I giggle and jump over him, landing on the other side of the bed. "Move over ye fatty, you're taking up all of the room" I say as I push him off of my side. He grumbles but shuffles over. "Thank you" I mumble as I get comfortable. I turn over and end up face to face with Sean's back. I rest my head on his back, "Night dork" I whisper. "Night Leelee" He mumbles.

I wake up to find my arms wrapped around Sean's waist. I snuggle into his back, "I don't wanna get up yet" I groan. I look over to find Sean still sound asleep. I sit up and lean over him. I whisper in his ear, "Wake up Jackipoo". He jolt upright and ends up falling into the floor. He groans and I giggle. "That's one way to wake someone up" He mumbles, rubbing his forehead. I giggle and grab my phone to check the time. "Dude it's 6 AM, go put your make up on and look pretty for school" I say and earn a groan in response. Shaking my head, I stand up and head towards the bathroom to get changed.

Me and Sean stroll into school 15 minutes before the first bell rings. We say our goodbyes and head to our lockers. I open my locker but immediately have it forced closed. "Well, well, well, look what we have here, the little slut got a beating didn't she" A voice says.
"Go away, Eric" I mumble, reopening my locker to put my books in.
He scoffs,"like I'd ever listen to a slut like you". I don't bother looking up at the demon. "Hey," he growls as he forces my head up,"look at me when I'm talking to you". I rip my head out of his hands and slam my locker. He shoves me to the ground and walks away. Sitting up, I notice everyone is laughing at me. I quickly gather my books and run off to my first class.
  This is gonna be a long day. _______________________________________
