CASSIE POV

CASSIE POV

At first I thought it was Zac but then my heart stopped as the dark brown hair of the figure came out, I knew that face, I knew that walk, I knew those arms, I knew those fists, I shuddered. Remember when I said I never had a boyfriend before, that wasn’t completely true, about a year and half ago there was this guy named Logan. I was a sophomore at a high school in Ohio, and I was lost and obviously had no one to talk to, this older guy came over and became the sweetest guy to me. Logan showed me all the ropes, his smile could make anyone feel safe, he kept the annoying football guys away, and the cheerleaders never teased me.

I thought he was amazing, we had a cute little relationship, we walked from class to class together, and he opened up to me telling me about his personal life. I told him all about my secrets and family issues, how my father kept making us move for his stupid job, how my sister and I were all we had and just everything. Logan sat with me every single day until my older sister came to pick me up or came to meet me in the front of the school. I fell in love with him as any other naive girl would, I fell in love with the person I thought he was. 

*Flashback* Logan and I got into an argument today, it was our first time that we didn’t say I love you, he got upset because I was talking to Chad, another guy who I knew on the football team. “What the heck, you slut,” Logan said running after me as I walked away from Chad, “Logan what the hell are you talking about, we were just talking geez calm down,” I said glaring and trying to push him away. Instead of pushing past him he grabbed my hair roughly and pulled me behind the bleachers,” Logan what the hell let go of me now,” I said trying hard to pull away, he didn’t listen and just tightened his grip, “Cassie you are mine, not anyone’s else’s you need to learn a lesson,” he said starting to really scare me. His eyes were blank and empty, “Logan I don’t belong to anyone, especially people who call me a slut,” I said still struggling from his iron hard grip. He narrowed his eye “You cant escape, I’ll always find you, I love you but I need to teach you a lesson,” Logan said in a monotone sounding voice. I was about to scream but he shoved me back causing me to fall, he kicked me so hard I doubled over in searing pain. My eyes started to tear up, “St-stop,” I said pleading through my chokes, he shook his head and raised his fist and struck me repetitively. “Never, you need to learn your lesson,” Logan said raising his dark fist and struck me again causing me to black out. *End of flashback*

Yes, yes that happened more than once, I always thought be would change, I always thought it was my fault for Logan’s little “punishments,” I cried every night wishing I would have the Logan who never hit me. I loved him, one day I came home with a broken arm. My sister freaked out and asked so many questions, I told her lame lies hiding the fact that the boy I loved, the star football player, the boy who would hold me in his arms on cold days did this to me. I left that night with my family to Cali, hoping I would never see him again, but the young, naive part of me still loved him even though he hurt me. 

Logan came closer, I started to shake Harry noticed my stance and tenseness, he pulled me slightly behind him holding me close. Zane guarded Pierre too, Niall and Louis stood by our sides as Logan approached.
