Chapter:9 Fundraisers,Snapbacks,and Truth

Chapter:9

i'm awoken by the sound of my phone ringing.

my head is pounding against my skull and i feel very dizzy. i sit up slowly and touch my head. i take deep breaths in and out and finally answer the phone.

"h-hello?" i say

"Hazel were are you? you promised to come 20 minutes early to help me set up for the fundraiser." lizzie says calmly through the phone

"s-sorry" i sob

"Hazel what's wrong?"

"n-nothing"

"you are lieing to me. im coming over." she hangs up

I hop of my bed and peek my head out the hallway. empty. i take the chance to rush to the bathroom. i shower even though i did last night but i need to wash my head again. after that i brushed my hair carefully and wrapped it in gauze. i ran back to my room holding a towel  close to my body. my head started pounding but i ignored it. i changed into my white skinny jeans i had for ever ago, my black tight crop top i got for my birthday (guess who gave me it...yep max did),my black and white varsity jacket and black vans lizzie bought me 2 Christmases ago. how am i going to hide the gauze....i'll just grab my black beanie.

i looked in the cracked mirror satisfied that i managed to hide the gauze. except i kinda have a bad habit of stretching it and it falls alot but its the only hat i own.

im outside~lizzie

okay be there in a sec~hazel

im not sure if my parents are home or not but im not risking another beating so i grabbed my phone and climbed out the window.i walk to the front of the house were lizie was standing. as soon as she saw me she ran up to be and embraced me in her arms of course i started crying like a teenage girl at a one direction concert. it wasnt pretty.

"tell me what happened in the car" she said pulling me to her 2012 grey Toyota corolla.

once we were in the car and lizzie drove a safe distance from my house. i took off my beanie reveling my gauze.

'WHAT TH HELL HAPPENED!!!!" lizzie shouted almost missing the red light

"my father" i managed to say

"he did this! why?!"

i took a deep breath in and out. get your shit together i tell myself.

"last night i walked in to a very drunk father yelling and hitting my mother. not a surprise. they started screaming awful things to each other so i tryed to walk away but my dad caught me he asked my were i was, with who, and if i had permission. i lied a couple times just so he wouldn't do anything to me. but he saw right through it. he slapped me several times and banged my head on the floor till i passed out"

"come over tonight and sleep over my mom is a doctor she would be happy to help heal you"

i shake my head

"that isnt an option hazel. its either that or i call the police"

lizzie had always wanted to call the police. she is the only one to know what goes on in my house. her, and her parents. but i dont want them too, if my parents found out they would kill me and lizzie. i am not over exaggerating.

"you are staying over hazel thats final"

i shrugged

Liz's pov

i drove in silence the rest of the way. i cant believe my uncle,my dad's brother, would do this to her. i knew he abused her but not to the extent were she has been knocked out. im scared one day he'll kill hazel. i still dont believe i am related to that bastard. my dad is not like him. my dad's a lawyer. he's a drug dealer. my dad's loveing and caring. he's a heartless fu=k.
