So, me and Austin are in the game room right now. I don't know how I'm still alive right now, I mean, Austin probably doesn't even feel the same about me as I feel about him. I just met him and I already think I have feelings for him. He's just really sweat, talented,

WAIT!

I didn't even here him sing yet.

Me: Hey Austin, can you sing a song? 

Austin: Sorry, what?

Oh my god. Did I really just say that out loud?!?!

"What? I didn't say anything." I said in a worried tone.

Austin: OH yes you did... can you tell me please?

Me: Ummm... I was wondering if you could sing a song, Alex told me you could sing and that you got kinda "famous". I'm sorry if I just made it awkward, you don't have to.

Austin: I can sing for you but just not in here, okay? He said with his amazing smile.

Me and Austin both sat down at 2 of the NASCAR games and raced each other. Neither one of us won because it wasn't exactly the same game. We were having a great time until my phone went off.

It was my brother...

Derek

Me: Hello?

Derek: WERE THE HELL ARE YOU, YOU LITTLE BITCH?!?!?!

Me: I'm just out with some friends

Derek: You better be home in 2 minutes or you don't know what is coming your way.

Right then I hung up and started sprinting out of the Pizza place. There was no way I was going to make it home on time. It was a 8 minute walk from Alex's house to the Pizza Place and Alex lived 4 houses down from my house. There might be a chance if I run as fast as possibly all the way there.

I reached my house and there he was. Standing on the porch.

Derek: Your late

Me: What... please Derek just leave me alone.

Derek: You have 1 minute to hide.

I started running. Running to my best friend's house. Alex. I saw the crew walking back to Alex's house. Something was missing but I don't know what. 

Me: ALEX!!!!!!

Alex: Steph what's wrong? He said as I swung my arms around his neck.

Me: We have to go now please!

We reached his house and we rushed up to his room. He locked the downstairs door and put the couch in front of it. When he came back upstairs he sat next to me on the bed and rapped his arms around me.\

Me: Where's Austin?

Alex: He went looking for you I think.

Me: Alex!!! He's not going to be okay out there! Derek is already out looking for me and he knows I was with Austin and you guys!

All of a sudden we heard someone banging on the door. Alex walked over to the window and looked down to see Austin at the door. He ran down stairs, let him in and placed the couch back in front of the door.

Austin came in the room with a worried look on his face.

Austin: WHAT WAS THAT?!?!

Me: Austin... I let a tear slip, 1 tear turned into balling my eyes out.

Alex led him into another room and explained what happened. Alex knew exactly what to tell him because this has happened before but I have never actually not been beaten by Derek. Usually Derek would just beat me and then go get drunk with his friends and I would come back here to cry.

When Austin returned to the room he instantly gave me a hug. It was the best hug in the world. I really needed that.
