*Ann's point of view*
I got into a cab and took a big sigh. Dan had just asked me on a date. I was going on a date with Dan freaking Howell.
When I got home, my father was in the living room. "Where have you been all day?" he asked angrily.
"I've been with a friend," I tried to conceal any sign that I like this said friend.
"Annabel, you don't have any friends, so where were you?"
"I was with my friend. I don't know why that is so hard for you to believe," I replied sort of annoyed.
"Don't you get an attitude with me. I am your father."
"You might be my father, but you're not my dad." I started to walk away.
He grabbed my arm, stopping me dead in my tracks. "We are not done here."
I tried to shake him off. "Get your hands off me."
"We're done when I say we're done." His grip tightened so much that it would leave a mark.
"Stop... please. You're hurting me."
"Does it look like I fucking care? All you've ever done is been an ungrateful little bitch."
"Please..." Tears started welling up in my eyes.
He slapped me. "Stop your crying."
I bit back my tears.
"Now go to your room. I don't want to see you till I leave for work."
I walked away quickly and ran up the stairs. I slammed the door behind me and busted into tears.
I looked down at where he grabbed my arm. It was bright red. His nails had dug into my skin so deep that blood started to flow. It wasn't anything that a band-aid and a jacket couldn't fix.
I crossed over to my mirror and started myself in the face. My eyes were puffy from all that crying. I was still crying. There was a hand print where he had slapped me. I'm sure some concealer could fix it.
I put on a red dress with a black jean jacket. I slipped on some converse and applied enough makeup to hide any sign of my father hitting me and me crying.
I heard my father leave for work and sighed. I looked down at my phone to see that Dan was here. I quickly pulled my hair into a bun and smiled. I told myself that it would be okay if I just forgot about everything that just happened and focused on my date.
I ran down the stairs and opened the front door to see Dan there.
"You look beautiful, Ann. You ready to go?"
"Yeah." I smiled.
"Then let's go." He grabbed my hand, and we went on our little London adventure.
