EXTRA NOTE: The picture to the side is Alison 

I know I left the last chapter at a cliffhanger so here you guys go. enjoy ;)
--------------------

I instantly froze and swallowed. It wasn't Alison unless she looked like a 35 year old man with a stocky build. Jet black hair up in a faux hawk and his face neatly shaven. His cold, grey, almost black eyes were bloodshot, showing that he was intoxicated, again. This man was my father.

"Where the hell have you been, Claire?!" You were suppose to be home almost three fucking hours ago."

I didn't answer him so instead of getting in the car I decided to keep walking to Alison's.

"Answer me you ungrateful bitch!"

I stopped and turned him again.

"First thing, you don't give two shits about me, you abuse your fucking wife and daughter. If Brandon was here," I paused knowing I hit a soft spot, even if he was drunk, "he would be disgusted to call you his father. If you think I'm ungrateful then by tomorrow I will be out of your fucking life. So until then just leave me the fuck alone."

Then the most unimaginable thing happened. A cop car pulled up and the officer in it asked if "this man" was bothering me. I said yes and my father sped off.

The officer then got out of the car, and walked over to me.

"What are you doing out at this time of night walking alone?"

"I was walking to a friends house," I sheepishly replied.

He laughed, "How bout I give you a ride over there?"

"Alright."

I got in the passenger seat of the Dodge Charger that was the police patrol car.

I told him the address to Alison's and we got there in a matter of 10 minutes.

"So..um, thank you, Officer..."

"Please, call me Cole. If you ever need me just call."

He then handed me a card with a 10 digit number scribbled across it.

"Thanks."

I grabbed my bag and slung it over my shoulder, getting out of the vehicle.

"Hey, kid?"

I turned around to face Cole. "Yeah?"

He messed up his blonde hair and met my gaze with his electric blue eyes.

"Stay out of trouble."

I chuckled, "Will do."

********************

I explained the whole situation to Alison and she was speechless.

"You..he...what???" she finally spoke.

I sighed, "My father basically kicked me out."

"Bloody hell, Claire.."

"Maybe I could stay at the local motel for a while until he cools down."

"Oh fucking hell to the no. I am your best friend...your only friend at that and what kind of friend would I be if I let you stay at some crummy motel? You are staying here until we can find a more permanent place. LIKE YOUR HOUSE."

"Alison...I don't want to feel like I'm intruding though"

"This conversation is over. You are staying at my house and that's final." 

I groaned but there was no use arguing with her. Once Alison has a decision, there is no changing it. 

*********************

The next day at lunch Emily and her herd of anorexic pigs were beating up Jesse again. I shyed away and gave him an apologizing look but didn't speak to him like I did when were first met. 

********************

It's been 2 weeks since my father kicked me out and I've managed to avoid both Zale and Jesse. I got up in the middle of the night to get a glass of water and overheard Alison and her mom arguing.

"She can't stay here any longer with your father losing his job." 

"But she has no where else to go," Alison defended me.

"Honey, I'm sorry but she needs to leave."

Alison groaned, "Mom...there's no one left for her."

"Alison Marie, Claire has to go tomorrow or I'm taking away your phone, laptop, and you are grounded for a month. Quit arguing with your mother. My decision is final." 

I swallowed nervously. There was no where else I could go except... No! I couldn't go to him after all this time I've spent avoiding him.

I thought it over in my head. I had no choice. 

Throwing on a pair of sweatpants and a black shirt, I put on my leather jacket and my Chucks. I left a note for Alison.

I overheard you and your mom arguing, don't worry, I understand. I'll find somewhere else to go. It's not your fault I can't stay, I know I've been interfering ever since I got here. I hope you understand why I'm leaving in the middle of the night instead of tomorrow. It'll be easier on everyone. 

~Love, Claire

Time to go to Jesse's...I put my hair up in a messy bun and started to walk. Just my luck, it started to rain. Hard. When I got to Jesse's house I stopped on the front steps thinking through what I would say. I took a deep breath in and then knocked. 

I could hear footsteps inside and the door swung open revealing Jesse. He was wearing a pair of sweatpants and that was it. 

Here goes nothing. "Hey, my dad kicked me out. Can I crash here for the night?"

---------------------------------

I'm going to try and update more often, I've been just really stressed and with all the shitload of homework we've been getting, it's been hard to find time to update. Plus I'm trying to figure how to put my ideas into words. As I'm trying to say, I'm sorry you guys. I'm going to Marquette in March and it's gonna be like a 3 hour drive so I'll try and write on the way there to get ahead on this. I hope you guys liked this chapter and don't forget!
