Beginnings and Endings

Honesty (edited)

Ellie's Point Of View

I continued walking, ignoring Niall even asked that question.

The rain had let up a lot, it wasn't pouring anymore but the air was still thin.

"Ellie, please don't do that." I felt him grab my hand but I instantly flinched away.

"Don't do what?" I questioned him, I really isn't know what he was talking about.

"Ignore me, I hate being ignored." He stated, droplets of water dripping off the ends of his hair. I looked to the ground, watching the water run down the sidewalk and into the underground vent.

"I walked over their and had a asthma attack, that's it." Half of it was true, I did have a asthma attack.

"You're lying to me." He stated, his voice full of disappointment. He started walking away from me, his white shirt showing his muscular back.

I felt bad for lying to him, he deserves a explanation; he just saved my life back their, he deserves the truth.

"Fine, ill tell you!" I yelled after him, running up to him and standing in front of him. He towards over me, I looked up into his eyes,

"Morgan grabbed me and dragged me behind the school." I told him, looking at the ground the whole time; not wanting to make eye contact.

"Did he hurt you?" Niall asked, anger growing in his voice. I shook me head no, but he knew I was lying.

"Ellie please," He lifted me chin up so I was looking into his eyes.

How can you lie to someone who cares so much?

"He dragged me over here because I didn't do what he asked and he pushed me and I guess it just knocked the wind out of me. It's okay Niall, it happens all the time." The last part I instantly knew I shouldn't have said. My eyes widened, as did his.

"Who else hurts you?!" He rushed his words, grabbing my chin so I'd look him in the eyes again.

"No one! That's um, not what I meant, I'm sorry I have to go." I pushed his hand off my chin and started walking off.

I heard him start running after me, but I picked up my speed and started running myself.

"Ellie, wait up I just want to talk!" I ignored him and kept running, my feet hit the ground and water splashed across my shoes.

I looked over my shoulder and Niall was bent over, his hands on his knees, catching his breath.

I turned the corner and saw my house.

The little white house, cob webs in the corners, no flowers or trees in or on the porch. It looked more like a haunted house than a house where someone lives. But to me it was a haunted house.

I knew I was going to get it, one of the rules is never be late home. Well, I'm like an hour late so, I know I'm in trouble.

I walked up those old rusty steps and made my way to the front door. Once I was to the door I reached out but it opened on its own. My father was standing at the door, he looked furious.

"Get in this house, right now!" He yelled and grabbed my arm, yanking me inside.

"Father please, you have to hear me out," I couldn't finish what I was saying before I felt his fist collide with my right cheek.

I stumbled backwards, dropping me back pack on the floor.

"Where were you?" He walked over, pushing me against the wall.

"I was at school father, my class let out late, I'm sorry!" I screamed, looking into his eyes, they were full of anger and hatred.

"What did I tell you about lying Ellie?" He didn't let me answer before he slapped me clear across the face. He let me go and I dropped to the floor.

"Stand up!" He yelled, picking me up by my wet, tangled hair.

"If you are ever late again you will never see the light of day ever again."

I was looking into his eyes and he was looking in mine. I was about to burst into tears but I couldn't, I knew what he would do if I started crying.

He'd beat me even more than he already has.

"Do you understand me?" He screamed, I felt his spit land on my forehead.

"Yes, sir." I whispered just loud enough that he could here.

"Good, now get your ass upstairs I don't want to see you again tonight." He told me, letting go of my hair.

I quickly grabbed my back pack and ran up the stairs and into my room before shutting the door and locking it.

I put my back against the door and slid down the door. I brought my knees to my chest and just cried, something I haven't done in a long time.

After my little break down I opened my back pack to see what the damage was. I had a couple papers that were wet but other than that everything was fine.

"Thank goodness." I whispered to myself, I would have been in huge trouble if I didn't do my homework.

I went over to my bed and did all my homework, it wasn't that hard. If you actually listen in class you'll understand the work.

After I finished I decided I needed a shower. I quickly grabbed my clothes and went into the bathroom. I had a bathroom in my room so I didn't have to leave.

Once I reached my bathroom I took a long look in the mirror.

My bottom lip was busted open, and my right eye had swelling unto it. I knew it was be black and bruised up tomorrow. I'll find a way to cover this up, I always do.
