Please Let Me Go

Chapter 2

     We've been on the road for three hours and we haven't spoken a word. Every now and then he'd change the station and he'd sing along or tap the steering wheel. I still don't understand why he'd want me to live with him.
     "You've been mighty quiet." He suddenly said. I gave him a dirty look.
     "Alright I get it! Look AngelHeart I--" Sebastian started, but I cut him off.
     "No! You don't get to call me that anymore! You lost that privilege a long time ago." I praticly screamed at him. Who the hell did he think he was? He can go to hell for calling me that old nickname. I'm not his little girl anymore. Not by a long shot!
     "Look Sebastian. I'm not that little girl you abandoned nine years ago. I'm fifteen going on--" I ranted.
     "Sixteen on September 11th right?" He asked looking at me. I nodded in awe and confusion.
     "I didn't forget your birthday Angelica. In fact, I have something for you in the dashboard. Go ahead and open it." He said nodding at the dashboard.
     I hesitated then opened it. I laughed when I saw it. Brass knuckles. Ha ha ha! I put them on and started laughing.
     "Really? Brass knuckles? This is the best you could come up with?" I raised an eyebrow at him.
     "Well, since I work the night shifts and I won't be there for dinner, I thought you might need them in this damn town. Too many perverts. Also, there's a pizza place down the street by our house and a library next to that." He explained.
     Ok, I may hate him, but he knows the two things that keep me going in life. No doubt that my uncle told him....right?
     After a while I fell fast asleep and drifted into my dreams.

     I was running through a forest with thick trees. I kept stumbling and running into bushes while trying to get away from him.
     "You can run, but you can't hide Angelica!" I heard him shout after me.
     All of a sudden, I was on a cliff with waves crashing below me. The wind was blowing through my long blonde hair.
     "Angelica. Come on Angelica. Don't be shy my dear and come to daddy!"
     "Leave me alone! Your not my daddy! Leave me alone I tell you." I screamed into the forest behind me. I then saw a shadow creeping towards me. It got bigger and bigger in til it was a t my toes.
     "Angelica." He whispered.
     I was on the edge of the cliff now with nowhere to go. I looked below me.
     "Angelica!"
     I jumped.
