You & I | n.h

Chapter 1

~Alexandra's POV~
        Today was the day I was going to call Harry; my older brother. He left for X-Factor 4 years ago and we lost contact with each other, he didn't have the time to talk to me. He soon became this huge star in a band called One Direction. But anyways, today is the day I decided that enough was enough. My life was perfect until about two years ago our Mum got married again to a guy named Phil. Phil seemed nice, but after a few weeks, he stole our money to start smoking, drinking and doing drugs. After a couple of months, she left me with him. She left me all alone with the step-father that would soon abuse me. He touched me, made me do things that I didn't want to do. At one point, I was his sex slave, he wanted to sell me to men. One night, a man came to the house, £500 to take my viriginity. That night was one of the worst nights of my life, he beat me up, then he raped me. Yes, I was raped, why? just so my stepfather could have money to buy drugs. My life sucks. Atleast that's one way to put it. That night was the night I decided to cut myself, it was a way to release the pain.

        I started on my hips, it was the only place people wouldn't see, then once there was no space left, I started cutting my thighs, and then moved on to my wrists. It's an easy way to relieve the pain I feel, I still do cut, I don't think I will ever be able to stop, he made me lose respect for myself, he ruined my life and I had no one left. I still remember about two years ago, when the abusing started. One day I got home from school and...

        I opened the front door and saw Phil, he was sitting on the couch snorting cocaine up his nose, he turned and saw me staring ad asked "what do you want, you useless bitch?" He said to me when I was staring at him. I ran up the stairs, only to find him following me. When I reach my room door, he has me pinned up against it.

        "Next time you stare at me like, i'll make sure you go blind for the rest of your life. Have some respect you slut" he whispered in my face. His breath smelled like alcohol; a smell I condemned. My mom opened her room door and screamed at Phil; "What's wrong with you? She didn't do anything" mom said.

        Phil turned around to face her and gave her a thundering slap across her face saying "You shut the fucking hell up bitch, you'll be next" Phil replied. I don't think my mom expected that. She thought Phil was an innocent man; now she's going to see what he's like; a lying bastard.
