" wake the fuck up you little bitch !! " i hear the groggily voice, known as my dads, bellow. my eyes shoot open and he glares right into them.
" get up ! " he screams, and i stand up as quickly as possible, too scared to say no.
my palms grow sweaty as my hands begin trembling.
i feel a sharp pain in my left cheek and i go stumbling backwards and landing onto the floor, holding my cheek with my hand.
he slapped me.
" where did you head off to last night ? huh ? " he yells, bending down slightly to meet my eyes.
i slowly use my hands to edge backwards, trying my best to stay as far away from him as possible.
" well ?! are you going to answer or just sit here "
" i-i..uh..went for a-.. i w-went for a w-walk " i stutter, my back hitting the wall, making me realise that i was now cornered and couldn't go anywhere.
" without permission ?! " he spits out, a bit of saliva hitting my face.
he firmly grabs my fore arm and pulls me up, his grip getting tighter and tighter.
i'm too scared and shaken to retaliate so i just let him drag me down the stairs.
he swings open the front door and shoves me outside.
" there you go, go on as many walks as you want ! i don't want you here " he screams and slams the door in my face, leaving me stood there in nothing but my pyjamas.
a sorrowful tear rolls down my cheek as all the muscles in my chin begin to tremble. i turn around, not wanting to face the place i should be able to call home.
my bare feet scrape along the cobble pathway as i begin to walk away, the tears still falling, rapidly.

" sadie ? " i hear someone say.their voice was familiarly unfamiliar.
i slowly turn my head and come face to face with someone i would never expect.
jonathan wilkos.
i use my sleeve to quickly wipe away my tears.
jonathan is friends with max and max hates me. i know without a doubt jonathan will go and tell max he saw me out here, and that's enough for even more rumours to be shared.
" go away jonathan " i whisper, and continue walking. however, i'm immediately stopped by him grabbing my arm.
i pull away, thinking its my dad due to what happened earlier.
" woah, are you okay ? you seem a bit shaken ? " he says calmly.
i look at him confused.
why does he suddenly care ?
" y-yeah i'm fine "
" why are you out here at this time in the morning in your pyjamas ? " he asks and i look down at my bare feet, trying to come up with a reasonable explanation.
" why are you out here at this time in the morning ? " i ask, trying to avoid all questions about me.
" i was out for a run "
i nod in return.
" well, see you in school jonathan " i mutter and continue walking.
" wait sadie ! " he calls but i ignore him.
" sadie ! " he repeats and next thing i know, he's walking by my side.
" i won't tell anyone " he whispers and i turn my head to meet his eyes.
he flashes me a half smile.
" thanks " i say, breaking our eye contact.
" well you best get home "
as soon as the word ' home ' escapes his lips i freeze in my tracks.
where was my 'home ' now.
my dad said he doesn't want me there anymore.
am i meant to just sneak in and out hoping he doesn't notice me ?
" sadie ! " jonathan raises his tone and i snap out of my daze.
" sorry, what did you say ? "
" i said, are you okay ? you completely froze "
i could see the worry in his eyes and he places his hand on my arm, slightly above my elbow.
he was worried.
he was genuinely worried about me.

•••
sorry this is shorter than usual oops.
i wanted to get something up for you guys.
also a quick message.
messaging me asking for an update is one thing, but messaging me and almost forcing me to update is another.
guys i have a life outside of wattpad and fan accounts.
i have school work to keep up with and i can't just sit in my house all day writing chapters and not talking to my friends and family.
i understand you like updates but please just respect that i have a life too.
i don't appreciate people constantly pressuring me to update.
anyway, for the rest of you lovely lot.
i love you,
- amelia
