but who would date a broken girl? | j.w.d

14

my dad is arrested.

I've been put into a home.

and it's all the boy's fault.

I wouldn't speak to them.

my mother was barley home.

my dad abused me.

I had little love for him in my heart.

he's the only dad im ever going to have.

I knew the boys thought they were helping.

but now I have no parents.

no house.

and...its hit me hard.

as soon as I was pulled to the side and my dad was taken, my heart stopped. my mouth closed. I didn't feel a thing.
"he's gone" brendon whispers.
"how could you!?" I cried out.
"he's the only dad I'll ever have! sure, he hurt me but I love him still!"
"we only wanted to help" tyler mumbled. "I know, but now look!"

josh was speechless. he just sat next to me holding my hand. I took my hand away. he looked over at me with an sad expression. I got up and ran to my room.

I cried and cried as, well, i am alone. Family wise. Scott and Mom haven't spoken to me. They probably stopped caring. The boys don't want me. They put me in this position. No one does. I mean, many people hate me. But why me? Why my life? Why do I have to be stuck in this position?

Josh came in. "I know I'm the last person you want to see right now"
"not really. you meant well" I whispered. he sat down beside me and took hold of my hand.
"look, your a beautiful girl. your funny. your cute. your everything anyone would want. even when someones threatening to kill you, your still kind. it's hard to find those type of people in this world. your one of them. you don't deserve any of your mental health issues or the people who treat you like crap. but know that your loved. brendon, tyler, scott, me... we all love and care for you. I know your pretty upset but I just want you to know your not alone. brendon has an anxiety disorder. I have anxiety. tyler has depression. we're broken people. we can all be there for each other-"

I cut him off by hugging him. he was confused but then slowly wrapped his arms around me. I felt him smile into my neck.

I packed my stuff and the boys helped me. "I promise I'll do whatever I can do to get you out of here" brendon assured me. "is that so?" I ask him. he grinned. "yes!" he gave me a hug and then I had to go.

some lady came and took me to the adoption centre. I cried the whole way there. she tried talking to me but I ignored her.

we made it and she showed me my room. the place was for girls only luckily. I don't hate boys. I get nervous around them that's all. minus tyler, josh and brendon.

I was sharing with a girl called Lainie. she was really pretty and was blonde. she was really funny and kind and quite witty and sharp-tongued.
"stay close to me okay?"
"thats so nice of you" I commented.
"Thanks. But for real, the girls here are nasty!" She says to me.
"My friends are going to try and get me out of here" I shrugged.
"Good luck with that. Who's your friends?" She started to help me unpack my stuff. "Three boys. Brendon, Tyler & Josh" I said to her. "I'm only friends with boys to! Girls cause to much drama!" She rolled her eyes and I giggled.

At least I've made a friend.
