Scarred.

  'Nobody needs to know, do they Scar?' I heard him say with his ugly, raspy voice. All I could do was let the painful tears stream down my face. He held me in a headlock as he held the familiar rag up to cover my mouth and nose.

'This, this is why I married your whore ass mother, hahaha' I heard that ugly voice once again, before everything went dark.

    "NO, GET AWAY FROM ME!" I screamed as I jerked wide awake crying hysterically in my bed. These horrid memories replay in my head every night. Those grimy hands, that disgusting voice that made me want to vomit every time I heard it. Ugh.

I look at my clock and its 5:23 A.M. Great, it's Monday. Another dreadful day in that hell hole. I wish I could just lie in bed and hide from this world forever, but since that's not an option I decide to just get up.

I toss the blanket off of myself and step out of bed, walk over to the dresser I have, grab my towel, and head straight to the bathroom to take a shower. As I walk into my bathroom I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror, and sigh.

'I am such a disappointment' I think to myself.

I turn on my shower to a warm setting, undress myself and hop in. Instantly I feel a sharp stinging sensation on my arms and legs. I don't even need to look down at those red marks. I don't need to re-live my 'mistakes'.

I wash my hair and think about just how fucking PERFECT my life is. After I wash the conditioner out of my hair, I get out, dry myself,walk back out into my room, and lock the door.

  What to wear, What to wear. I'm obviously gonna be judged and criticized on it anyways, so I don't even care anymore. I decide to put on tan colored skinny jeans,a tribal print hoodie, and tan vans. I put my hair in a pony tail and apply foundation and mascara, waterproof of course. Right when I finish I hear my moms voice.

"SCARLETT, I MADE YOU SOME OATMEAL! I'M ABOUT TO LEAVE, SEE YOU LATER TONIGHT HUN, BYE!"

" BYE MOM!" I yell back.

What doesn't she understand about making me food. I don't need to eat anything, I'm already fat enough. Whatever, nobody understands.

I run to the corner of my room and grab my school bag. I take my phone off of the charger and look at the time its 6:54 A.M. I need to get going! Considering I live 3 minutes away driving, but since my moms gone and my stepfather Rick is a total dick, I guess I'm walking. Again. It's only a 10 minute walk, though so its not to bad.

I run down the stairs, and see the son of the devil sitting at the table.

"Hey, my gorgeous girl" Rick says disgustingly.

'Ugh' I grunt back.

As I'm ready to head out the door, I feel a tight grip around my wrist.

"What did you just say?" Rick growled.

"I said... UGH, now back the fuck up and leave me alone, or il be late and il have to tell them why." I smiled, and he let go, and walked away angrily.

Looks like I won this round.

I walk out the door and slam it on the way out. It's fall so its pretty chilly. I try to walk a little faster.

I eventually get to the school, but then... I hear...

Them.
