"Whats wrong, Sunshine?" Nicko said as he walked up to me. I was cleaning off a table and straightening up my area so that I could go home.

"Im just so tired, you know? It was a pretty busy day today." I said as I looked up at him. Nicko was a pretty mixed boy with blue eyes and black hair. He was one of my guy best friends. He was probably two years older than me but in high school we were in Glee club together.

"Yeah I know the feeling. You need a ride home or anything? Im about to leave out now." he said.

"No, im good, Leeah is supposed to be taking me home." I said.

"Okay. Goodnight Raven." he said.

"Night." I said as he walked away. After that i finished cleaning then I went to go get my stuff from my locker. I was looking around for Leeah and she was in the Break Area talking to Riley.

"Well, Raven has to do something friday so it probably wont be all of us." Maleeah said to Riley.

"Do what?" I asked.

"Movie Night at my house." Riley said. I loved her house, it was so big and fun when we all hung out there.

"Oh. Yeah, I got a date night." I said. They both looked at me funny.

"With who?" Riley said.

"Darious." I said smiling.

"Oohhhh yessssss, you go girl!" Riley said as her and Maleeaah cheered up and down.

"Wow, you ready to go or naw?" I asked.

"Yeah, I just gotta go get my stuff." she said.

"Okay im gonna go wait outside." I said as I walked away and out the back door to where Maleeah was parked. It felt nice ouside but it was still breezy so i buttoned my jacket together and took out my phone. I was replying to a text from Darious when I got pushed up against a wall and hit my head.

"Ow bruh, whats your problem?!" I yelled as i rubbed my head. A man with a hoodie on had me pinned up against the wall. The hood was over his head and I couldnt see who it was. I tried to push him off me but he wouldn't budge. He then took his hoodie off and I wanted to cry. I was my abusive ex-boyfriend, Cairo, who I thought as in jail. I was about to scream but he put his hand oer my mouth.

"If you scream, I swear I will kill you right here, right now." he whispered in my ear. I started crying. I was afraid for my life. This fool is crazy. The last time we were together he nearly beat me to death but my brother and Terrance came into the right place at the right time. They saved my life. I could fight back but I was too scared to. Cairo is 6 foot something and buff. Me compared to him is like a midget compared to Shaquille O'Neil.

"Cairo, please." I started to say.

"Shut up Raven! Why'd you send me to jail, huh?" he said as he pressed up against me harder.

"Im sorry! I was just so scared! Im sorry." I cried. He got a devilish face and then he punched me right in the eye as he let me go. I fell to the ground in tears. I covered my face with my knees and my hands. Cairo then pulled me up by my hair and made me look him in the eyes.

"Raven, I loved you so much. Why'd you do that to me Raven? Why?!" He yelled at me as he picked me up by my shoulders making me the same height as him.

"Cairo please. Im sorry, you scared me." I said in tears. He threw me to the ground and kicked me in my face, making my nose and mouth bleed. I got up and started punching him in the chest because that was the only thing I could reach. He then grabbed me by my throat and choke slammed me down on a car and started to choke me. I punched him a few times in the face. I was about to lose all conciousness when I heard voices that sounded like heaven.
