Alison

My dreams were filled with a horrible memory, one I can't afford to lose, so the minute I woke up I found a piece of paper and began to scribble down the dream.

I woke up in a dark room, looking around I saw nothing but the moonlight, I decided to get off the wooden floor as I saw a figure standing near the opening of the door. I gasped, thinking it was some type of monster but it was only Matthew. He wasn't a threat to me at the time, he was one of Matthew's friends.

I wasn't quite happy with him, he had tried to kiss me but I pushed him off. When I tried to tell Ryan no one believed me.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him, my voice was laced in disgust.

"To finish what I started." He replied, he started to walk over to me but all my horror movie instincts kicked in as I got on my feet and grabbed the nearest thing near me swinging at him, it was a steel pipe, hitting him in the face i watched as he screamed in pain. (Side Note: Sorry for that intense moment, the beat dropped.)

I ran away from him quickly hiding behind a dresser in one of the rooms, hoping to lure him away so my escape could be easier. Instead he had walked in the room and once I felt him near the drawer, suddenly I was being crushed against the wall and the dresser.

As I struggled against it I pushed it forward with all my might, causing it to drop on him, however when I made a move to leave, I saw only his leg was stuck.

"Ugh Alison help me."

"No fuck that." (SN: This music is making me feel some sort of way, bear with me.)

I heard him curse and heard the dresser smash against the floor, only to hear his rushed footsteps after wards. I quickly made my to the stairs, only to have something he my back, I hissed in pain as I fell forward.

I didn't care how much pain my back was in, I ignored it and began to get up but Matthew stepped on my hand crushing it, I hissed in pain as he moved his shoe around.

"You know what? You're not worth it, I'll just do away with you. You know how easy it would have been to just listen and- ow what the fuck?!" He screamed, while his stupid lecture I moved my head towards his ankle and sunk my teeth into it, causing him to loosen his foot around my hand.

I grabbed his ankle, quickly yanking it causing him to hit the floor. (SN: This is a re-write and I promise you this wasn't as violet when I first wrote it)

"You bitch." He said as I got on my feet but he tripped me, I felt on my face as he grabbed my ankle and began dragging me to a room. I saw a the steel pipe from earlier and grabbed it, I swung back at him but he dodged it grabbing the pipe from my hands.

"You little bitch, I had it with you." He said bringing the pipe down on my head as I grabbed it and squeezed my eyes. He brought it down again hitting me harder but the area numbed, as I felt my vision fading.

"Stay here and die." He spat as he walked off, I had blacked out, slipping into my own heaven, feeling warm and fuzzy.

I stared at the paper closing my eyes slightly as I thought about that little fucker Matthew. Always going to the circle to fight people, it was horrid whenever I went to his fights, always cheering when he punched in the face.

The circle!

The circle, oh my god. He fought there and all this hatred and rage in me boiled wanting to be in the circle with him.

I got up but looked at Demi's sleeping form, I smiled a bit looking at her sleep peaceful. I grabbed another paper from the notebook and jotted down a note.

Had to go pick up my medication be back in an hour or so. -A

I put the note on the nightstand, I changed into my jeans for last night, not bothering to take off the shirt Demi had lent me last night. I opened the hotel door and rushed down, we were a few blocks away from the place where the circle took place, but five blocks away from where Maryanne lived.

Fuck Maryanne I'm going to the circle. I jogged over to the place, buying a pack if mints on the way, since I totally forgot to brush my teeth. I went through the hold in the wall, and heard men's voices.

"Yeah I swear, she was so fine." Some guy said, he sounded my age and I leaned against the wall listening on to their conversation.

"Did you get with her?" Another man asked.

"Nah she's one of those good girls." The first guy responded, and I hear the men chuckle.

"Like Ryan's girl right? What was her name? Alex? Ariana?" Another man chuckled and I tensed up.

"No you dipshit, her name was Alison, and nah. I think Alison was even more fine." The same boy answered, I looked down at my breast for some reason and awkwardly looked back up at the ceiling.

"Speaking of Ryan, I heard Henderson beat the shit out of him." A woman said and I heard them shuffling cards, I clenched my teeth remembering that little fuck's name.

Matthew Henderson.

Stupid name.

I shook away my immature thoughts as I listened it.

"When?"

"Today, he was talking about how he smashed Alison or something. They broke into a fight and Ryan lost." The woman replied.

"Pussy."

"Yo shut up, him and I are tight." The first man replied, and I rolled my eyes.

"Please Melissa's pussy is tighter than you two." Someone replied and I heard a smacking sound as I left. Who is Melissa?

I don't care.

Maybe I do.

Not really.

I went back to the hotel to see Demi hasn't even woken up, I grabbed the note I left her and ripped it up, tossing it in the trash. I fished out the packet of mints I bought and set them on the night stand.

I quickly sat on the floor where I wrote and saw the papers were still there, my eyes widened as I grabbed them, folding it up and stuffing in the back pocket of my jeans. I'm glad I got back before Demi could read it.

(SN: This song is so good, just thought I would tell you. "When the lights go out, she's all I ever think about." I can't this is perfect.)

I groaned in anger thinking about Ryan get hurt, for some reason a voice deep down was where my anger was coming from. I felt...protective over him.

Now I feel like doing something I shouldn't. I felt like getting revenge, I felt like hurting this Matthew kid, and that's exactly what I'm going to do.

"He fights tonight." A voice in my head whispered to me and I clenched my jaw, already planning to sneak out.

Author's Note:

Ok so this was supposed to be apart of the previous chapter before my phone died, but I made it another chapter. That's why the update today is quicker.

I got new headphones so you can tell they've been in my ears for the last day.

QOTD:
Favorite song at the moment?
Mine has got to be English Love Affair by 5SOS
