It’s my birthday im finally eighteen I can leave I will leave its horrible here dad abuses me and  i found out he was cheating on mum too with a lady he works with and he was screaming at mum did i mention that he hit her and thats were i come in i told him to stop and then he turned around and started hitting me mum didnt even help me she just ran off up the stairs a few hits and kicks later he stopped and walked up the stairs leaving me there in pain, mum came down minutes later and  left, she didnt even help me.

I put my diary under my pillow and climbed out of bed I dressed and did my hair I grabbed my school bag and ran down the stairs I ran down the street I was running late

“sorry em I slept in” I puffed

“it’s fine Trin”

“thanks”

“happy birthday”

“yay we are going to Australia soon” I cheered

“I got you something”

“I told you no presents” I laughed

“it’s only fair I told you no presents and you still got me a present” she pointed at me

“touché” she pulled out a small box from her bag and handed it to me

“open it” she smiled

“okay, okay” I laughed  I opened the box and saw two tickets to my favourite band I screamed “OMG I love you” I hugged her

“you better” she giggled

“what are we going to wear?” I panicked

“settle we have a week to figure it out” she chuckled

“I can’t wait ahhh” we continued walking to school nothing was going to bring me down today I was finally going to meet my heroes. I was pulling books out of my locker when I felt strong arms wrap around my waist

“happy birthday babe” it was Darren

“thanks Darren” I turned around

“so you going to the party this weekend?” he asked

“ I don’t think so” I smiled “I have a concert to prepare for”

“oh really what concert?”

“my heroes 5 seconds of summer” I looked up at him

“cool I hope you have fun” he kissed my cheek before walking off.

The rest of the week flew by I was in my room waiting for em we were staying at a hotel for the weekend I had my bag hanging on my shoulder and phone in hand I ran down the stairs and out the door when I heard dad getting up in the room next to mine I sat out on the pavement. Em’s car came round the corner, I jumped up walked towards the car

“you excited?” she smiled

“no im ecstatic” we laughed

“so we are going to be in the car for about an hour before we get to the hotel and then we can sleep sound check isn’t till 4 tomorrow ok” she looked at me

“perfect” we turned on the radio and sang along to all the songs laughing like idiots, we stopped at mc Donald’s 5mins from where we were staying I got a happy meal em looked at me and laughed “what can’t I have a happy meal little miss grown up” I sassed I tried to keep a straight face but failed miserably
