Aspens pov
"Okay fine I better not get in trouble."we go down the street and back and I see my dad walking out side "HEY THATS MY CAR!" he slurs but is still clear to hear. I stop the car and my dad walks up to the window. Azare leans over and I have no idea what he's doing "I'm so sorry sir I just thought I could teach Aspen how to drive." His face looked genuinely happy, but not my dads. "Aspen? Get out of the car." I nod and get out. I stand in front of my dad staring at the ground.He digs his nails into my arm but I don't screech because Azares right there,and he's on the other side of the car so he can't see."Well son, you should get home it's getting late and Aspen should have been home a hour ago." My dad grits his teeth because he knows he could be put in jail for hurting me, if someone finds out exactly. "Yes sir I'm so sorry it won't happen again." My dads eye brow raises "I'm sorry, but you can't see my daughter anymore" Azare stares at him shocked "but si-" my dad points a finger at me . "Come on go inside Aspen" I nod and speed walk into the house with my head down when my dad walks in I saw Azare and he hit the car in anger. I sigh and my dad grabs me and throws me. Before he started again he chugged his medium flask. I stand up and tried to push him away "Who am I to you?!????" I say as he he stares at me "The person that made the love of my life leave me!" I stare at him and just blanked faced and a scared emotion. He walks up to me and punches me in the face."STOP DAD STOP!" even though I know he won't I tried. I just can't wait for the day, that I'm dead on the ground. As soon as he pushes me, I fall on the floor. "This is your fault!" He yells in a slur. I try to doge but I miss and get smacked in the face. I crawled up on the floor and all I did is sobbed and cried over and over again while he kept on beating me."IM SORRY IM SORRY IM SORRY IM SORRY,IM SO SORRY!" Sooner or later the punching and kicking was over. For all honesty that was the longest beating I've ever gotten.

The next day I sat next to Azare but he didn't talk to me, so We just sat there in silence. I don't know what to say because I'm not even brave in general to even talk to a fucking flower. We are currently in English class. I lean to my bag and grab a piece of paper and write a note about he doesn't have to not talk to me. After a minute or two later I get a note from him that says not to talk to him ever again. I stare at him for a while with the feeling of tears inside my face. I jump out of my seat and every one stares at me and I speed walk out of the class room. A few seconds later I feel someone walking behind me "I get I need to be in class Mrs.Grace." I get turned around and then suddenly I'm pulled. My eyes are open and I don't respond until I see that it
is Azare. Then I start to resist him back and put my hands to the side .He pulls away slowly and stare into my eyes. "Why is he so mad" He sees my tears that I've shed and wiped them away."why is your face purple what happened" he said with a concerned face. Luckily  he only wiped away a little. "Don't worry I just ran into the door. I covered it up so the teachers won't worry." I nod awkwardly and he nods. My eyes widen "my dads going to kill me
" I shake my head, heh literally. His eyes widen too and I shake my head once again."I'm sorry Azare we just can't hang out for a while." I say while I stare down at the floor and I walk away to my locker, and grab my belongings. I decided I'm going to  hide away Jose leaving my step mother, and sadly Brendon for a while. As I walk away I hear my name fade from a familiar person knowing it was Azare. I soon walk out of the school and then start my walk to my house to grab all my stuff.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sooner or later I'm walking in front of my house. I grab the key from under the rug and walk inside. I walk inside and see my mom on the couch making out with some random man. I stop and stood there in shock."m-Mom?" I say with a shaky voice.she looks up with worry and realization."h-Honey your h-home early" she say while getting off the dude with a frown on her face.I nod and run up stairs to my room with tears about to burst out of my eyes. Still not  knowing what I'm going to do that will be good for me. Once I get to my room I pack all his stuff in my room . I lift my mattress and gather more than 10,000 dollars that I've saved up since I was 8 because I know the abuse wasn't gonna stop and I was going to run away someday or at least now help Jose. Once I was done with my room I headed to Jose's room. I grab one of his old suit cases and pack his Spider-Man toothbrush and all his clothes and some loved toys. After that I leave the house and leave my phone because I know that Mom keeps a tracking device on it. I also got rid of Any thing birth certificate related to Jose just so when the foster parents ask, I'll just say I don't know who the parents are. I'm about to leave, Until I hear the door and see Azare.My eyes widen and I realized he wouldn't be able to do anything and I walk past him. He turns his head with a confused expression "Where the heck do you think you are going!?!" I look up shocked knowing that he has not right to know or talk to me like that, so I go back to normal and I start walking to my brothers school. As soon as I start walking I feel a hand pull and grip onto my wrist and I screech in pain due to my beating from yesterday ...and other things "ughh!" His eyes wide in worry. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you." I yank my arm away from him. "What do you want Azare!" His face was shocked "where are you going!" I start walking again "What do you think Sherlock...I'm helping Jose run away. I hate it here...it's not good for him." he stares at me with worry,anger and a confused expression. "W-what?"
