Liv's P.O.V

I couldn't take the beatings anymore.I'm thankful that this was the last month of summer.I would have a short escape from the Hell Hole of a house I'm living in.Most teenagers are sad to see the summer end but I've been counting down the days.I'm not like most teenage girls though.Most worry about how they look and worry about guys.Me on the other hand worry about the chance of my surviving another day.I'm starving due to short income we don't buy much food.My father beats me all the time.Ever since my mom left him,he's been like this.He takes his anger and pain out on me.He doesn't have a job so to take up his time he drinks heavily and beats me to a pulp.I remember the day my mother left.She didn't even take me with her.

(FLASHBACK)

I had turned five years old today.'I'm a big girl now.'I had thought to myself.I woke up bright and early and rushed downstairs to see mommy and daddy arguing like always.This time he was swaying back and forth and held a brown bottle.I could smell a really weird nasty smell in the kitchen.They were arguing about what he was drinking.Mommy called it liquor.I remember them both telling me that liquor is a type of alcohol and I should never drink it.Why was he drinking it?He turned to me with his eyes red.He looked like an angry dragon.The look on his face scared me."I'm a big girl today!Mommy and Daddy what will we be doing today?"My daddy kicked me.I fell onto the floor and rubbed the side that hit the cabinet.He didn't even say sorry."Daddy that hurt a lot."I said with tears pouring down my face.He crouched down and grabbed me by the hair.He slammed my head against the cabinet.I squealed out in pain.I pleaded to mommy for help but she just stood there and watched.Daddy started screaming mean things at me."Nobody loves you.You are just a worthless piece of shit!Go fucking die in a hole."I cried harder.He yanked my toy teddy out of my arms and ripped it's head off."See not even your teddy bear loves you!"I cowered in that corner and cried.My dad walked away and left me to cry.My mom bent down,kissed my head,and walked out the door never to return again."

(END OF FLASHBACK)

I will never forget that day.He had beat me everyday for the past thirteen years.I've been tortured all these years with nobody.I'm a social outcast apart from my only friend Amy.She understands what I go through.Her mother used to do the same to her as my father does.That is until her mother went to jail for child abuse.Sadly nobody pays any attention to me so I suffer.He will probably be the death of me.I don't listen to what he tells me though.I do have one person who cares.Amy.Sure I may not have many friends but I have one.That's good enough for me.

I just ran out of the house.I can't stand being in that house with him.I don't have a job because he won't allow it.I'm his personal slave.The only place I can go to is school,and he doesn't even notice when I leave.I just kept running.I don't know where to.I just need to get away even if I have to go back soon.I'm wearing clothes full of holes and have no money.I was to busy staring at my feet when I bumped into somebody causing me to fall.I huffed causing a puff of smoke to burst out of my mouth.Curse this cold London air.The person didn't even apologize.Eh who cares.I just kept walking.I stopped when I reached an alley.I walked into it and sat down onto the cold hard ground.I couldn't stop the tears that began to pour down my face.

I don't know how long I had been there but night had already fallen.I was about to leave until I saw a man walk into the same alley as me.As he got closer I could see his face with the help from the moonlight.He had a creepy smirk on his face.He started to walk faster.I tried to run but only backed into a wall.He ran up to me and started to run his crusty hands over my body.I flinched at the touch."So beautiful."He began to kiss my neck.He tried to take off my jacket causing me to sob.He put his hand between my legs causing a scream to erupt from me."Shut up bitch!"I flinched when his hand made contact with my face.He slammed his lips onto mine.I tried to get him off of me but he was much to strong for my frail body.I had my eyes closed.I was to scared to see what would happen next.So this is how I'm going to die?By rape.I'd rather be beaten to death.I was screaming while kicking at the man.I hadn't noticed his body hit the ground until no more weight was on my own.I looked over to see somebody beating him.I stood there in shock.The man passed out and my hero turned to me."You alright?"He had a thick British accent.I shook my head.

He walked over to me.Before I could react he had engulfed me into a hug.He whispered soothing things in my ear.It surprised me how a total stranger could soothe me."How can I repay you?"He smirked before asking a surprising question."Will you go on a date with me?"It took me by shock.The guy saved my life so the least I could do was go on one date with him.I slowly nodded."Okay how about we go to Starbucks."I shrugged my shoulders.We began the short journey to Starbucks with each other by our side.We talked about anything if everything.I got to know a lot about him even if we probably would never see each other again."Thank you again."He smiled and dug his phone out of his pocket.He handed it to me.I looked at him clueless."Can I have your number?"I smiled and typed it in.We walked around the city laughing and cutting up.I have no idea where my confidence came from.That had been the first time in a while that I smiled a genuine smile and laughed a genuine laugh.We said a goodbye and walked into opposite directions.If he hadn't been walking around to clear his mind then he never would have heard my screams meaning I could be dead right now.Something about him makes me feel wanted.I don't know.I hope we become friends or maybe more.He is freaking hot.Woah where did that come from?Who am I kidding,I have a crush.
