Eren's pov:

I trudge down my road, my house creeping into view. It's just as hidious as the people inside of it. The paint is peeling off and the front window is smashed and covered by a filthy sheet. Home "sweet" home.

As I wiggle my key around in the stiff lock the door finally creaks open. As it does I hear a glass bottle smash against the wall and the stench of beer attacks my nose. Great, it's going to happen again!

"Girl, get in here now!" I hear his gruff voice yell.

"Yeah bitch, front and centre" she shrieks with a cackle.

Disgusting.

Just like me.

I stumble into the living room. There are my "parents" sinking into the couch with beer bottles littered around then. He is holding one in his hand. It's just the neck because the rest has been smashed off.

"Hello fucker, you know the drill. I'm bored. Take off your shirt and get down on all fours like the animal you are!"

I comply without hesitation. This is just as much a part of my routine as getting a shower or getting dressed.

"Make it feel hell honey!" She says in her shrill voice.

"Did you know, I've been taking it easy on you so far. Now you're going to get what you deserve!" He says sloppily but loudly.

With that he kicked me in my crotch with his steel toed boots. I hear her laugh in the background while I try to stay on my hands and knees. Then glass shatters over my head and I know he's thrown the bottle neck on my head.

I scream loudly. I see scarlet blood drip onto the floor from my head. He's bound to have enjoyed that. Somehow, I manage to not collapse.

Suddenly I feel a sharp object being dragged across my back. It happens again and again and again until my back is covered in crimson lines.

"Get out of my sight you filthy bitch!" He yells in my ear.

With that I grab my clothes and run upstairs, accidentally crashing into the walls on my way up.

I don't care.

As long as I'm away from them!

Hi guys. I want to say that just because I wrote about it, doesn't mean that people have the right to do something like this. Abuse is a serious thing and if anything like this is happening to you, even if it's not this extreme, then reach out to someone. Don't put up with it a let it become normal like Eren.

Thank you for reading and being supportive.

The song is important to me and has helped me when I haven't been very happy.

See you next time *salute*
