The Morticians Daughter

Chapter 10

*Raven's POV*

"Wake up Raven." I heard dad say.

I woke up and saw him standing in the door way of my bedroom. I nodded and went over to my closet. I gathered my clothes and got dressed. Long sleeves again I mean I have no other choice if anyone finds out I'll be dead. If I'm dead I'll be happy. I put on my makeup and walked in to CC's room.

"Hey kiddo." CC said.

"Hey um I was wondering do you have my cigarettes?" I whispered.

"You can have them after school."

"Please I'm out of them."

"What?!"

"Raven I just gave you a pack yesterday."

"Fine. Bye love you." I said walking out.

"Bye guys love you. Bye daddy love you." I said grabbing my bag and then walked out.

I arrived to school and the bullying had already started. A girl walked up to me pushing me on the ground and then kicking me calling me horrible names like EMO freak and a stupid whore. I managed to get up and held back my tears walking to first period. Sitting in the back as usual no one sitting next to me.After school I walked outside and started walking. My ribs were killing me.

"Hey need a ride?" I heard a voice next to me.

I looked over and saw my dad In his car driving beside me. I smiled and nodded walking over to the car. Wincing while I was walking.

"Are you okay?" daddy asked.

"Yea I'm fine."

"Are you sure?"

"Yea it's just my ribs are hurting."

"Why?"

"I got hit with a ball really hard in gym class."

Liar. I don't even go to gym class.

"Okay."

We arrived home shortly and I ran up to CC's room as soon as we got home.

"Hey." I said walking over to his bed.

"Here." he said handing me my cigarettes.

"Thank You." I said kissing his cheek and leaving. It's not weird to kiss your uncles cheek. Is it?

I opened my window and was about to climb out onto the roof when I was stopped.

"Where are you going?" I turned around and saw Uncle Ashley.

"On the roof."

"To do what?" Ashley sounded more concerned.

"Just to sit out there."

"What are these?" he said pulling the cigarettes from out of my hand.

Shit. I'm dead.

"RAVEN!" He shouted.

"Where did you even get these?"

"I got them from CC but please don't tell dad."

"Wait CC has been giving you cigarettes?"

"Yea. Please don't tell dad."

"Sit down." Ashley said pointing to the bed.

"I won't tell him but I want to ask you some questions."

"How long have you been smoking?"

"Since I was 12."

"Raven! that's a long time."

"How many cigarettes do you smoke a day?"

I sighed and then said "8."

"WHAT! Raven that's almost a whole pack."

"I know I'm sorry."

"It's okay kiddo." Ashley said handing me back my cigarettes and leaving.

I took out a cigarette and went out on to the roof. I have to stop more people are finding out and dad might find out too.
