11~Nightmares

Everest's POV

"Mike, please, let's just talk about this," My mother said as soft as she possibly could to him, but it seem to enrage him even more.

"Everest, you know what she did!" He shouted loudly at her. "Don't even try to cover up for her, she stole from my wallet! I know she did!" He slurred out his words so bad from all the beer, I could barely even understand him.

"No, Mike, I gave her your ten 'cause she needed it for lunch," she tried to explain. "It's okay."

"I don't believe you!" He shouted. "Now, she has to be punished." He turned to face me, giving me a disgusted look.

"Mike, don't you dare lay a hand on her!" She shouted at him from across the living room. He stormed my way. I shook uncontrollably in this tiny little corner that I was crouched down in, trying to back away as far as I could in the corner, but knowing that there wasn't any room left to back myself into. Tears streamed down my face as I whimpered completely frightened by him. I screamed in horror as he approached even closer, merely inches away from me. I closed my watered eyes tightly, waiting for the pain that would eventually come from his large hands.

Minutes passed, and I didn't feel anything. I then opened one eye, finding myself in another room. I slowly stood up from where I was, realizing that there wasn't the chipped corner behind me anymore. I observed my surroundings, but finding absolutely nothing. I was alone. Completely alone, in utter darkness, not finding a single trace of light anywhere. I looked around confused, still finding nothing, breathing unevenly from the fear.

Then from out of nowhere, I hear someone shouting at me.

"YOU ARE NOTHING BUT WORTHLESS!" A voice, much like my father's, shouted at me. I whipped around, still finding only darkness, a crazed and terrified expression glued to my face.

"I DON'T NEED YOU ANYMORE!" Another voice shouted at me, echoeing through my ears.

I whipped around again, eyes wide, only this time I was twice as much terrified by who it was.

"Harry?" I said in the darkness, in raspy and shaky voice, seeing no sight of Harry, chills running up my spine.

"YOU BROKE OUR PROMISE, EVEREST!" His voice continued, frightening me even more. "LEAVE ME ALONE AND NEVER COME BACK!"

"EVEREST, I NEED YOU!" I heard my mothers voice cry out to me. "PLEASE HELP ME! I NEED YOU! WHY DIDN'T YOU SAVE ME!?"

"Mom? Mom!?" I cried out to her, but again, all I saw was darkness.

Then all of a sudden, random voices that I knew of, coming from all directions, engulfed my eardrums, causing my head to swell.

"YOU'RE STUPID!" "YOU'RE PATHETIC!" "YOU'RE A LOSER!" "YOU CAN'T ACT!" "WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU!?" "YOU BROKE OUR PROMISE!" "I WILL NEVER BE FRIENDS WITH YOU" "I HATE YOU!" "YOU'LL ALWAYS BE ALONE, FOREVER!" "YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING RIGHT!"... and so on. The voices continued to rage on. I recognized most of the voices which mainly came from Harry, Louis, Niall, Nicole, Britne, my mother, and especially -my father. Their loud voices consumed my eardrums, and I couldn't bear it anymore.
