My name is Brielle Lucas. I am sixteen years old and in grade ten. I'm in a relationship with someone named Jackson Richards. We have been together for a year, almost two, but he is abusive... He always hits me and pushes me against the wall. I get bruised a lot and when my friends ask about it I tell them I just fell down. you're probably wondering why I haven't left him yet. It's because I tried once... it didn't turn out to well. Jackson and I are fairly popular in the school which is okay but sometimes overwhelming.

Jackson was taking me out for dinner tonight so I was getting ready. It was 6:30 and he was picking me up at 7:00. I curled my hair and then put on lip gloss, eyeliner and mascara. I changed into (below) and grabbed my phone. I got a message from Jackson.

Jackson💓:
I'm on my way. Be ready. I'll be there in 5.
Brielle😉💞:
Okay see you then. Love you.

He was abusive but I did love him. I walked down the stairs and sat on the couch waiting for Jackson. He knocked on the door and I got up and walked over. I opened the door smiling and he smiled back.

Jackson: you look nice.

He said smiling then bringing me into a hug. He kissed me and grabbed my ass.

Brielle: thanks, you look nice too.

I said once he pulled away from the kiss. He held my hand and walked to car. we got into the car and I went to turn up the speaker volume but he hit my hand. I just grabbed my phone out of my bag and held onto it. I turned it on and went onto my calendar.

Brielle: hey baby guess what.

I said looking at him.

Jackson: what?

Brielle: our two year anniversary is coming up in a month.

Jackson: that's nice.

I nodded my head and we got to the restaurant about five minutes later. He went in and didn't even wait for me. It was the usual but it's whatever. We got seated and the waiter came to ask us what we wanted to eat.

Waiter: my name is Daniel and I'll be your server tonight. Can I get you two anything?

Jackson: a burger and fries please.

Brielle: a salad.

Daniel: is that all.

Jackson: yes thank you.

He nodded and walked away. Jackson looked at me and kicked me.

Brielle: ow! What the hell?

Jackson: I saw the way he was looking at you. I didn't like it.

Brielle: so why'd you kick me?

Jackson: because I did.

He looked down at his phone and went onto Twitter. One of our friends Leo texted him.

Leo:
Party tonight, it starts at nine. My house. Be there.
Jackson:
Might be a little late. I'm out for diner with Brielle. But yeah I'll be there. Might bring her with me too.
Leo:
Okay. See you then.

He put his phone down and looked at me and smiled.

Jackson: I love you so much Brielle. You're so beautiful.

Brielle: I love you too baby.

I smiled. He leaned over the table and kissed me grabbing my cheeks. He pulled back and smiled. A few minutes later Daniel came back with our food. I said thank you and he walked away again. No please take me with you. I thought to myself knowing Jackson was going to hurt me again. I prepared myself to be kicked but I wasn't. Instead he sat beside me and punched my ribs. It hurt like hell. He sat back down on his side of the table and acted like nothing had happened. My eyes started to tear up.

Brielle: I have to go to the bathroom.

He let me go and I ran outside. I sat at a bench and started crying. I didn't care if people were looking or if Jackson saw me.

??: hey are you okay?

I heard a familiar voice say. I wiped my tears and looked up. He was wearing red converse, black ripped jeans and a black tank top. He had brown hair and looked very familiar. Where do I know him from? I thought to myself. He looked to be about the same age as me.

Brielle: y-yea...you look so familiar.

??: oh yeah sorry, I'm Grayson Dolan. We go to the same school and we have English and math together. You're Brielle correct?
