Since my parents would be back tomorrow with my brothers, we decided to have all of guys and Brianna stay in a hotel since I didnt really ask if they could stay. They all helped clean up before they left. We said our goodbyes and I sat down on my couch. Shawn wanted to stay to make sure I was okay but I told him I'd be fine and that he should go home.

I put in The Sandlot and sat back eating popcorn.

"C'mon Benny man, the kid is a L-7 weenie" I said along with Squints. God I loved this movie. About half way through I decided to turn it off since I was practically asleep.

I walked upstairs and plopped on my bed. I turned my TV on and put on Law and Order SVU. My favorite TV show EVERRRRR! Wow I should calm down. Anyways, I was enjoying the show, while falling asleep, when I heard a door close.

"WE'RE HOME!" My brother Aiden said. He was probably my favorite brother, seeing as my other one was a complete and utter abusive dickhead. I never told my parents though because I was afraid of what he would do to me.

I ran downstairs and hugged my mom, dad, and Aiden. Josh, my other brother, was nowhere to be found. Probably out smoking a cigarette. Thats all he ever does.

Aiden and I went back upstairs and just chilled for a little bit. We decided to watch The Blind Side and we eventually fell asleep.

-The Next Morning-

I woke up and saw that Aiden was gone. Probably eating or playing video games. I checked my phone and saw that I had a text from my friend Kaylan. She said call me when you can. we havent talked in 5ever!!

I dialed her number and walked downstairs to find some food. Josh was in the kitchen and when he saw me, he just gave me this dirty look. I put my phone on speaker, placed it on the counter, and began looking through the cabinets. I stopped for a second to reply to a text Aaron had sent me about hanging out and Josh, being the asshole that he is, had to make a smart comment.

"Do you have to stand in my fucking way?"

"You were over at the fridge, you werent even over here so dont give me an attitude."

"Always gotta act like Ms. Tough Girl when you're on the phone, dont ya?"

"I'm not acting like anything so shut the hell up."

Next thing I know, I'm slammed up against the fridge getting screamed at and hit. I broke free from his grip and ran straight to living room and called my mom. I was tired of being afraid. She answered and I told her everything that happened. When I got to the part where he slammed me against the wall, he ran in and started charging me. I started to kick him as he got towards me, because I was afraid of what he was gonna do. Once I started kick him, he grabbed me and threw me to the ground. He started hitting and stomping on me as hard as possible. Aiden finally ran downstairs and got him off of me. I couldnt even comprehend what happened. All I knew was I was being dragged upstairs, and I was crying and breathing heavily. Once Aiden brought me to my room, I started calming down a little bit, but I was still bawling my eyes out. Aiden was crying.

"Why are you crying?"

"I'm just so fucking pissed," he said with clenched teeth. "How could a guy hit a girl like that?" He asked, rhetorically.

I just sat there and began crying. He just sat there and hugged me, telling me it was gonna be okay. He pulled away from the hug and we wiped each others tears away.

"Dont let him get to you. Dont let him make you feel worthless." And with that he kissed my forehead and left.

"Too fucking late." I mumbled as I laid back and started crying again. About 15 minutes later, my mom came into my room. She asked what happened amd I repeated my story.

"You two are to stay away from each other from now on, understood? I dont want you in the same room as each other anymore."

"No mom. Its either he goes, or I do." And I didnt mean moving away. I meant ending my life. I wasnt going to live with someone like this anymore. Hes hurt me too many times.

"Megan I cant jus-"

"AND WHY THE HELL NOT?! HES 19 FUCKING YEARS OLD, HASNT GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL, HASNT GOTTEN A JOB, DOESNT HAVE HIS LICENSE! WHY ARE YOU EVEN SAYING YOU CANT DO THROW HIM OUT?! DO YOU NOT SEE WHAT HE DID TO ME?!" I yelled, pointing to my eye which was black and swollen. "Oh wait I forgot. Hes the first born, your little baby. Well ya know what, you're losing a child today. Me or him. You choose." She didnt even respond. She just walked out.

I walked to the bathroom and grabbed my razor. I couldnt do this anymore. I cant live my life in fear anymore. I slid the cool piece of metal across my skin multiple times letting the blood drip down my arm. I filled up the tub with water and grabbed as many pill bottles as I could find. I just kept downing the pills and dragging the razor across my arm.

Slowly everything started to fade away. "MEGAN!" was the last thing I heard before everything turned black.
