*3 weeks later*

Brooke:

"Look, I'm fine. Just worry about each other." I hesitate while I put my stuff in my locker in pain.

"This isn't like you...Something is wrong, you asked Miles for some drugs today!!! You don't do drugs!!! Me and Blake don't even do drugs anymore!!! Please stop." Angie begged. Blake went on tour, he is coming back on Saturday.

"I'm fine, I just wanted to try some I guess. And I'm going to try them...just this once, my body aches- I want it to help me feel better."

"What happened to the Brooke I know?" She cried, wiping her tears.

"I'm sorry Angie, but I really don't know....I don't know where she went. I don't know if she will come back." I frowned. She shook her head looking down.

"I know she is in there somewhere. I'm your best friend, please call or text me if you need me. Just let me know when your ready to be the normal you again." She looked at me sad as she walked away, you can hear her sniffles.
-------
"Brooke!" I turned to see Brandon mad. "Why have you been ignoring me for the past 3 weeks!? What did I do wrong!?" He bellowed as he walked towards me.

I shrugged "I can't talk to you. You'll get hurt like I do." I looked into his eyes. Blue. His eyes are blue and upset.

"What do you mean like you do. Who hurts you!?" He yelled grabbing onto my wrist.

"Please. I think of you as a brother, I don't want you to get hurt. You, Angie and Blake are all I have left, I don't want to see you get hurt." I cried. He pulled me into a embrace.

"Shhh...it's okay. As your...brother, I'll do what you want, but if it gets worse, you know to call me okay. I'll be here all the time. Do you want me to drop you off at your house?" He asked slightly smiling but frowning.

"Yes please, that could be safer for me..." I contemplated. He looked at me with curiosity and I shrug. "Okay, let's go Brandon. My body hurts so bad." He frowned seeing my bruises and cuts that I took little effort on covering up.

They are all by Hunter. Only I, Hunter and his 2 friends know that. Today I would be skip a beating. They always find a way to find me on weekdays to beat me. It's horrible, but I remember what Hunter told me the first time.

"Because you don't deserve to live! You don't deserve to be here! You make everything worse you slut! Everyone hates you! Stop trying and kill yourself!"
-----
"Thank you so much." I smile getting off of the car. I can't ever find myself having a real smile for the past 3-4 weeks.

"No problem Brooke. See ya' Monday." He smiled then pulled out of the driveway and drove off to soccer practice. I cook myself a little meal, my mom left after the day I first got beat. She explained everything, I genuinely miss her. She did care for me after all, just chose to never show it. I walk to my room and lay in my bed, I stare at the ceiling. Why me? Why did I have to be the one who met Hunter? There are about 2 million girls who would kill to meet him. So why me? What did I do to deserve a this punishment?

Hunter:
I drove around in my Prius looking for Brooke. I don't know why I beat her. I'm still feel like my chest gets heavy when I think of her and the Ben thing. Is that hurt?But why should I be hurt? It should be the hurt one? It should be her who gets hurt.

She wasn't anywhere. Maybe she was already home.

------

"I'm home from Soccer!" Brandon calls out coming inside the house. I smile at him, he looked happy. "Why are you in such a good mood?" I asked wriggling my eyebrows.

"Because Brooke and me-" I cut him off "Your dating!?!? I thought I told you NO!!!!" I yelled getting up to punch him.

"Calm down you big butt hurt booty boy. We see each other as siblings... so no....and she turned me down..... But she talked to me again. She's fine but she's covered in bruises and cuts, do you know about that?." He looked at me angrily. Oh no, he knows. "Oh, really?" I asked pretending to be surprised.

He just walked off into his room, I'm going to beat the crap out of her on Monday for telling Brandon and for skipping her daily beating.
