I probably waited outside of my house for three hours and still no sign of my dad I've just been thinking of Zach of how I pushed him away the look he had, I've seen it far to many times someone trying to help. Sooner or later they give up and leave you broken, and miserable. Finally I see a grey car pull up and someone gets out of the driver seat and walks over to the passenger side opening the door a large 6' man dressed in black gets out. "Dads home." He smirks at me. Ugh already with him. He walks over and unlocks the door I run upstairs and change out of my now damp clothes, they were soaking 2 hours ago but it stopped raining and they dried some. I then got a text:
Unknown: hey sorry for upsetting you
Me: Zach is that you?
Unknown: yes...
Me:Zach I'm sorry ok but I can't be friends with you too many people have looked at me the way you did earlier and it ends badly.
Unknown: ok I understand...
I'm not gonna ask how he got my number because it's all over the internet because of my dad I hate my dad so much he acts like everything is fine out in public then he comes home and blames me for my mother's death. He even told me once that he wishes I died instead of her. It's terrible I know today it seems like my father is just gonna go get drunk and when he comes home... I don't wanna be here. I added Zach to my contacts and texted him:
Lyra: hey Zach...can you come pick me up I need help?
Zach:of course. What's wrong?
Lyra: i don't know if I should say just hurry...
He didn't respond after that until I heard knocking in the door which scared me. I walked downstairs and answered Zach looked scared and worried. "Lyra are you ok? I came as soon as you said to." He was in a suit. "Um yeah but why are you dressed up?" I said questioning him. "I was on a date with Brooklyn." My eyes widened and I slapped his chest. "WHAT THE ACTUAL-WHY WOULD YOU LEAVE HER THERE TO COME GET ME?!" I yelled at him. About that time my dad came up I quickly pulled Zach inside and up to my room and locked us in a closet. "Lyra I left because I thought you were in trouble and I told her it was my mom said there was a family emergency." I shook my head I can't believe him but if my dad knows he's here he's gonna freak. "Zach listen carefully I am in trouble but so are you we are in my closet bc my dad is drunk and he is gonna hurt me if he finds us so I suggest you-" I was cut off by him kissing me I was shocked and pushed him off. "Sorry but you were being loud and I needed to shut you up." He said as he smirked and wiped my lipstick off my mouth because it was probably smeared now.We heard the front door close so I told Zach to go home as it was safe now...it wasn't but I didn't want to be near him...I can't fall for him he has a girlfriend. I walked him out. "Bye princess." He smirked as he got in his car I quickly rolled my eyes and shut the door as I started blushing. I went up to my room and fell asleep. I was awoken by someone slapping me. I yelped in pain. My father was home. He then proceeded to punch me and kick me and I swear all our neighbors heard us but just didn't care. I passed out after 15 minutes.
