Through the Darkness

Chapter 2

Sara's P.O.V.

I can not believe that Maya, of all people has a crush on Jeremy, I mean he's one of the most popular guys in thee whole entire school, that is besides Sam, my boyfriend. Knowing Maya, I know that she is never going to man up and ask him out, even though she totally should, cause like #Jaya for life. So, I'm going to take things into my own hands. How should I do this, I know, I'll make him a card, it is Valentines Day after all. So I make a simple card asking if he likes me, and I sign it with Maya's name, and put it in his locker, Wow, I should be a matchmaker. For the rest of the day I do the regular stuff: carefully count my calories, have make-out sessions behind the school, and fall asleep during Math class. My next period is my favorite, because I get to look at Sam's beautiful face during class, but as soon as I get to my usual, of staring into his gorgeous eyes, Maya bursts into the classroom and says that the Math teacher needs to speak with me, which I wasn't too concerned with, because after all I do fall asleep in her class almost every day. I start walking out of the classroom and down the hallway, when Maya stops me and without saying a word punches me square in my jaw. Before I could even respond, I notice that Maya was on the ground, eyes closed and barely breathing. What do I do.

Maya's P.O.V.

As soon as the nurse says I'm okay and that nothings wrong, I got in my car and drove. I couldn't stand to be at school after everything happened, so I went home to find my mom as usual drunk and halfway passed out. I try to go into my room without her noticing, but the stupid floorboard had to squeak, and before I knew it my hair was being pulled so hard that I could hear the individual strands being ripped from my head, my mom yells and says, " I just got a call from the school saying that you punched somebody". Before I could do any thing she picked up her trusty bottle of whiskey and hit it against my head leaving cuts everywhere. I scream out in pain and she seems to just get angrier, so she gets the stick she has used every single day since dad left, and started beating me over and over again, until she got sick of it and pushed my against the wall choking me until I almost went lights out, and took my keys and went to bed. As soon as I heard her door close, I ran up to my room and cried like never before, every single time she does this a little piece of me goes back to when I was 12 years old.

Warning this P.O.V. Includes very mature content!!!!!!!!

Young Maya's P.O.V

I come home from school wanting to tell my dad about how I got an A+ on my science project, but as soon as I start to speak, he slaps me in the face for no reason, I look at the table and see a bottle of vodka and a knife, my eyes start to water and I gasp in pain and he kicks me in the ribs, and says " You ruined my life, you are a pathetic excuse for a daughter". He grabs knife making an deep cut on my arm, and says if I tell anyone he'll slit my throat. This kept going on and on until a few months later, he left with no warning.

Present Maya P.O.V.
My mom drops me off in the morning, and every single time I see Sara I walk the other way, and I swear the only way I can get through the day is Natalie, whenever I walk past Jeremy she holds my hand and tells me that I'll be okay. I walk outside and sit on the curb, waiting for my mom. Tears roll down my eyes, and I form my body into the fetal position and rest my head on my knee, when an unfamiliar voice says " Why is a beautiful girl like you crying"? I look up and see a 6'0 man with the face and body of an angel, minus the wings.
