the three musketeers

:,)

I'm sitting in front of my window, watching the rain fall and the lighting boom my ears. The moon was shining through my certins making the room a light dark. Blue I don't know. I look down at my wrist. Look at the cuts. when the sound of yelling fills my room. my mom flew into my room getting into my closet and taking all my clothes. " Mom? What are you doing??" I ask my mom. Heading towards her " we are leaving come, on hurry. Get all your stuff!" She says tears filling her eyes. that's when I hear my Dad screaming for my Mom. I can hear shattering of my dad throwing glass everywhere. She opens my window and throws the book bag. " go, I'll meet you outside. Just run" I listen and jumped out the window. not landing it, my leg throbs with pain as I scream. The tears mixing with the rain all over me. the blood on my wrist was dripping. I ran, for what? I don't know but I ran untill I got To Melanie's house. I bang on her door. "Mom the pizz-- Payton?" She eyes me. " what the fuck? Is that blood? your soaking wet! Come inside" she rushes me inside and runs upstairs to get some clothes I guess. " Oh my dear! Payton! What are you doing outside in the rain?" Melanie Mom says. " something happened at home." I say, she gives me an understanding smile. I'm looking around and seeing pictures on the wall of her dad and brother. Who both died 4 months ago. " Hey... um Payton? " I zoned out, and turned to look at Melanie. I didn't really look at her when she opened the door for me But now I see her. Her eyes are bloodshot. And you can see the dry tears on her cheeks. I look down her knuckles are red really red and purple almost bruised . " Are you okay? With me being her?" I asked. " yes..yes.. it's fine, plus my mom would like someone other then the police in our house" she laughs. A fake forced laugh
