I'm walking home from school, and I get the feeling someone's watching me...

I'll probably get in trouble for this, but instead of going straight I turn left. My plan is to then take another left and the next street, so I can head back towards the school.

When I take a left at the next street, I think the stalker caught on, so I turned around and said, "Alright, I know you're there, come on out."

What I wasn't expecting is that someone comes up behind me and covers my mouth with their hand.

I turn around, the attacker letting me turn around, and it's Levi. Has he always been a stalker?

"What do you want? I thought I told you to stay away from me." I say while glaring at him.

"I was curious." That was his excuse last time too.

"Okay fine, but let's talk somewhere else, what about you're house since it's probably closer?" This guy is on to something, he couldn't possibly know, could he?

"No, my parents don't like it when people come over." I say bluntly, keeping the glare on my face.

"Tch, fine." He takes my arm and starts dragging me towards his house.

———

"What do you want?" I ask while standing at the entrance. I'm inside, but I have to leave soon anyways, or else dad will kill me, no, he's probably already home, if he's not out drinking.

"Why don't you sit down?"

I hesitantly sit down, guess I got no choice.

"Listen, I'm going to ask you bluntly, why do you always have bruises or scars? And you're always trying to cover them up."

"I do karate, I'm really bad at it, so I always get hurt. Was that all?"

He doesn't seem fully convinced by my answer, and he seems like he's not going to back down.

"Okay, I'll believe you if you let me go to your house, once."

"No, I already told you-"

"I don't care. Sneak me in or whatever, I just want to see your house."

"No way you creepy shorty, I'm leaving now, and if you dare try to follow me, then I'll call the police or something, or maybe I'll just put a restraining order on you," I say.

"Ok ok, I get it, I- I'll stay away from you from now on..." he says while looking down, he's not looking in my eyes when he says that, and why does he look, sad...?

Whatever, it's not my concern, my concern right now, is making it out alive of that hell called my home.

———

"I'm home..." I say quietly while entering, and I don't hear anyone.

I sign in relief, that means my dad's out drinking. I decide to start my homework, but after that I have nothing to do, so I just lye on my bed, thinking about Levi.

Why is he such a creep? He is such a stalker, but he did save me from the bully earlier... but that doesn't mean he can stalk me. I probably should've thanked him, but it's too late now.

While I'm thinking, I didn't hear my dad come into my room, when did he come home?

It looks like he's had a bad day, and he's going to take it out on me.

———

I can't take it anymore! Why doesn't that guy just beat me to death, that would be so much easier and better.

Dad's now watching TV, but I yell, "I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!" And I run out of the house, tears starting to form in my eyes.

I'm in downtown, and I run towards the top of a building.

I look down, thinking if I really should do this.

But I just can't take it anymore.

———

My mother died when I was about four or five, and my dad, well he... changed. He wasn't the same after mom died, he would completely ignore me, he wouldn't feed me at all, but then, well, he started to beat me. I just let it be, thinking there's nothing I could do about it.

But now there is, I can jump, I can end everything.

I take a step forward, ready to fall forward, but then I hear a voice behind me,

"Eren Jagear?" I turn around, and it's some guy from my class, and knowing him, he's not very nice, he's like the go to person for gossip, don't ask me how he finds out all this information.

"Haha, this will make an interesting story, I thought it was you from down there, so I took a pic," he says smiling to himself, probably proud of himself.

"Wait, give me that camera back you bastard!"

I try running towards him, but he just runs back down.

I sigh, and sit down, tears streaming down my face, I don't want to go home.

I'll sleep here tonight.
