Infinity's pov
"YOU'RE USELESS!" My mother yells as she chucks a beer bottle at me. A tear gits my white hoodie as I run out of the house. I grab my skateboard from behind the bushes and put on the driveway, before jumping on it and kicking off with my right foot.
It only takes me 5 minutes to get to the skate park a.k.a my happy place. When I get there, it's almost completely empty, minus my best friend, Jack.
"Hey, Infinity, what's wrong?" He calls, looking over at me as I make my way to him.
"Skate now, talk later?" I mumble. He looks surprised at the talk later part. I've never told him anything. I've wanted to, but I didn't want him to pity me. There's only one thing I hate more than my mother's abuse: Pity. Jack nods and races me to the ramps.
After almost two hours, I finally get tired.
"Talk?" Jack asks, making his way over to wear I was sitting at the top of a staircase. I take a deep breath, rub my hands on my pants and turn to him.
"My mom abuses me," I say quickly. His eyes widen.
"What?" He asks, wrapping his arm at me.
"She has for years and I've just sucked it up and dealt with it alone cause I didn't want to put my crap on anyone and now I'm putting my crap on you," I ramble as tears fall from my eyes and hit Jack's shirt. He pulls out of the hug just a little to look at me.
"Infinity, you're not 'putting your crap' on me. If anything, I'm glad you're telling me. You shouldn't have to go through this alone," He mumbles. I take a deep breathe and nod, trying to stop the tears but they won't stop.
"We have to call the cops," Jack suddenly says as he pulls his phone out of his pocket.
"No! We can't do that! She'll come after me harder if she knows I called the police on her!" Now I'm frantically crying. Jack puts his phone down for a second and pulls me onto his lap, letting me cuddle into him.
"She can't get to you if she's behind bars," Jack whispers, rubbing my back up and down i a calming way. He places a kiss to the top of my head as he mumbles sweet things like, 'I'll always be here for you' and 'She won't hurt you again. I promise'.
Once I'm calm, Jack dials 911 and files a complaint. Once he gets off the phone I hug him tightly.
"Everything's going to be alright," He said looking down at me. I looked up at him.
"I promise," He mumbled before leaning down and placing his lips on mine.

I hope you liked it. I'm tired. It's 12:30 AM where I live. What time is it where you live?
