I lock myself in my room, making sure that dad cant get in this time. I wasn't in the mood for him to beat me again, and call me names, the bruises from last time still hurt like hell. But I couldn't do anything about dad's behavior because mom was gone and my sister left for collage as well. They left me..why did they leave me?

I snap back into reality as a heavy knock hits my fragile wooden door. Getting out my homework real quick, I yell, "Dad Im d-doing my h-homework!!"

I had no homework though because it was a Friday and we didn't get any.

"You fucking Bitch! Open the fucking door!" Dad 's raspy voice goes through the door a little bit slurred.

I start to panic, dad was going to hurt me worse now that he was drunk. I glance around the room to hide(because I am fourteen and childish, ok..)

"Christine!! You better open up the fucking door or I swear I will kill you!"

My eye lands on the empty space under my bed. I hear keys jiggle and I squirm quickly underneath the bed, pushing shit in front to hide me. Please don't let him find me..please don't let him find.. I pray only to hear the door open and a grunt as my dad tries to get through the lodged door.

His heavy footsteps walk around the small room, I imagine his glassy eyes grazing the room for my weak body.

"Where are you bitch!" He yells.

My breathing becomes more and more shorter as tears stream my face. I was having another panic attack. I remembered what my sister, Nicki used to tell me when she would have to pick me up at school. I would get panic attacks because of the bullies telling me to kill myself and harassing me on why I had bruises and cuts on my arms.

I can't breath..i gasp for air, under the bed was so claustrophobic. I shift franticly, covering my ears at dad's monstrous roars.

Until they stop.

I wait for something, anything, and that's when dad yells with all his glory,"Come out little whore! I found you!!" Just like a horror movie.

He finds me under my purple bed and drags me out. I squirm and kick trying to get out of his hold.

"This is what sluts like you get when you lie!" Dad punches me across my jaw, I yell in pain as another one comes at my ribs.

"I'm sorry! I promise I won't do it again!!" I beg.

He gives me one last punch on the gut causing me to fall to the floor clutching my stomach, then he storms off slamming the door behind him.

I stay in my position letting tears stream down my face. If my dad really loved me, why would he hurt me? For discipline? I thought I was a good for, getting good grades and never getting in trouble at school.

My thoughts drift to mom and Nicki for leaving me. They left me alone with the monster, no one was going to come back for me- they were all to scared.

I slowly get up, sure that I would have bruises all over my body when I wake up tommorow. I go to my bathroom getting out my razor blade and cut my fore arms. The razor sliding on my skin like butter as I gasp at the pain. In a way it always relieved me, especially when the blood started to drip.

Careful, I go over to the tissues sitting on the counter nearby and soak up the blood until it stopped.There was another yell from dad downstairs and I freeze. I needed to leave, I couldn't continue to do this anymore.

I get my backpack and shove everything I need to survive on my own. I pack it until it is very full, flinching at the sound of my dad angrily coming up the stairs to my room.

The window.

I go to my window glancing at the drop-it was two small stories, nothing I couldn't walk off from. As the door begins to open I take a deep breath and jump, landing hard on the ground. I don't look back as I run, not knowing where I was going, just..going. I run and run, my eyes blurry from crying, until my feet began to hurt.

Panting, I look around my surroundings to see where I ended up too. There was a big hill with a few houses, one house catching my eye because of a yellow duck with sunglasses in their pool. My legs burning, I go up that hill hoping to get far enough away from the monster. I trip as a rock juts out of nowhere, causing me to scrape my knee threw my camouflage leggings.

My favorite pair too.

Getting up and wincing at the pain I walk further until I hear a loud beep behind me. I turn around to see a black G wagon with two men in the front, jamming to JoJo Siwa. I sigh wishing they would have just ran over me already.

I move out of thier way going to the side to let them cross, but the ginger head driving says something to the other dude stopping the car.i am going to get murdered. I say to myself, shrugging my shoulders at the thought. It wouldn't really matter if i disappeared from life.

The smaller male rolls down his window so the ginger dude can speak."hi. So um you look little young walking alone at 9:30 at night..."

I look up at the sky, it was dark all around me. How did I bot notice that?" Um..i'm..f-fourteen sir, I'm pretty sure I can h-handle it.."

The smaller male looks at the man next to him trying to whisper something to him, but I hear it as clear as a bell."Shane, she is alone on a September night with bruises all over..we have to do something."

My first response was; what a bunch of wierd grown men jamming to a song made by a childish girl my age. I look closer-wait are they together!?Which is fine by me because back at 'home' Nicki came out as bi last year. My dad was defenitly not as accepting as my mom, part of the reason why Nicki moved out.

There was a long silence, then,"Hi I'm Shane and this is Ryland..you aren't a fan are you?"

I shake my head, not in the mood of talking. I haven't seen thier faces anywhere."I-I'm Chris.."

"Just Chris or.." Ryland asks.

I shake my head."C-Christina...umm." I say the awkward silence itching at me.

Shane looks at me, most likely deciding what to do with me."So Chris, are you cold..hungry...anything?"

No I am nothing and anorexic, thank you.

I just stare at Shane as he starts to finish."do you want to come with us until we find your parents?"

"I wouldn't consider dad my parent but.." I say under my breath, Ryland raising in eyebrow.

I hop in the car sitting in the back. I was for sure going to get murdered today and these psychos playing Jojo siwa were my killers.

"Don't worry, you wont be the only girl, Chris." Ryland turns me.

I thank them and go on my phone to turn off my 'find my device' so dad cant find me. I learned my lesson the first time I ran away, dad leaving me with a scar I still have to this day when he found me in an hour.
