I woke up to the beeps from my computer. Ugh! I forgot to log off of my blog. Reluctantly, I opened my eyes to see my room surrounded in darkness. I reached a hand out for my phone and checked the time, 5:45am. I groaned internally and scolded the person on the other end of my blog IM. I grabbed my skull tie blanket that arrived earlier, and walked over to my computer.

*NicTritt requests for a chat with Scarredforlife*

A smile broke across my face as I started to type back.

Scarredforlife: U do realize it's almost 6am?

NicTritt: Yea but this is normal 4 me 2 get up. How r u doing?

Scarredforlife: I'm good, getting used 2 the new surroundings.

NicTritt: I'm glad that u finally got away.

Scarredforlife: Me 2.

NicTritt: Ur friend told ur dad, didn't he?

Scarredforlife: How did u know?

NicTritt: U've been saying for yrs that u were going to talk to him but never did. Ur all talk, no action and u wouldn't do anything to hurt someone, no matter what they have done.

Scarredforlife: How do you know me so well?

NicTritt: Lol. Give me some credit. We have been talking for 5 yrs.

Scarredforlife: Well than yes, my friend told my father.

NicTritt: How did he believe you?

Here, I had to freeze. NicTritt was one of my bloggers that became really protective of me. If I didn't tell him the truth, he would know I was lying. It still scares me how he could know me without even actually knowing me. I decided to suck it up and just be honest. Like my father used to say when I was younger, 'honesty is the best policy.'

Scarredforlife: My step-brother threw me against a wall and I got bruises all down my back. He saw them and that was all the evidence he needed.

NicTritt: WHAT!!! I swear to God that I will kill him if I ever meet him!!!!!

Scarredforlife: Technically, u never met me either. But don't worry, u never will meet him.

NicTritt: I'm sorry. I just don't understand how someone can do that to their own family, blood related or not.

Scarredforlife: It doesn't matter. All that matters is that I got away. Anyways, changing the subject how is the girlfriend drama?

NicTritt: Ugh! Don't remind me. She was hanging all over me today. She even had enough nerve to try and grope me in the middle of class. I plan on breaking up with her tomorrow.

Scarredforlife: I'm surprised you even let it get this far. She doesn't seem like someone you would date.

NicTritt: How would you know what kind of girl I would date?

Scarredforlife: Well...you are a smart guy, so you have to have a girl that you can keep an actual conversation with. I am assuming that you like girls with brown or black hair and they have to have some kind of mystery. What you are doing with a dumb blonde, fake face and body parts, is beyond me.

NicTritt: Wow...you are good. How the hell did you know that?

Scarredforlife: *shrugs shoulders* idk. I guess I just know you better than you know yourself.

NicTritt: Well, it's time to get to school. Ttyl.

Scarredforlife: Bye.

*NicTritt has sighed off*
