Alex Pov-
It took 20 minutes for me to finally fall asleep sleep for me was always a struggled but once I'm asleep I'm at peace, but then I was startled awake from a drunken voice. "Alexander get your ass up we have company" I gripped my blanket tightly, my father was home and his drunk. I shuddered when I heard something shatter outside my room. " ALEX GET OUT HERE" I heard my dad yelled, I closed my eyes and counted to ten. Then I got out of bed and examined my cuts from earlier the blood had dried, I sighed when I heard something else break I really didn't want to go out there but if I don't my dad will drag me out. I pulled my sleeve down and went to the door before I opened it I glanced at the pistol that was laying on my nightstand I quickly grab it and stuff it and my jacket pocket I didn't want my dad to find it in my room I count one last time and open my door and walked quietly out of my room and headed to the living room.
Once I reach the living room I saw my dad making out with a brunette women on the sofa then I remember my dad saying that had to cut the sad crap. but it was hard since I felt like this every day I reach for my razor, just one cut would change my mood but I force myself to stop just need fake being happy then I can be left alone. I gave them a few minutes then cleared my throat to get their attention my dad pulled away from the women and glared at me for a quick second but then smiled, he stood up and stumbled towards me my eyes soon spotted a shatter jack daniel's bottle on the floor, my dad, most have dropped it or something. I tried forced down the anger that was rising when I notice a picture of our family was broken just stay calm you still have your mother's picture.
"Al-Alex my boy come here" he slurred I slowly walked towards him and stood beside him I tried not to gag when I smelt his breath then he pats my back " th-this beautiful w-women is named Emma met her today," he said sweetly that caused Emma to giggle but her laugh just sounded annoying. I looked at Emma she had short hair and she was wearing a tight red tank top that showed her stomach and black rubber skirt that was to short for her but what bothers me the most was her makeup she looked like a clown but uglier although she gave me strange look I force myself to smile.
" Alexander what cute name for such handsome man" she purred as she stroked my jacket sleeve. I quickly pulled away from her it made me uncomfortable my dad grumbled under his breath and went back to Emma and begin rubbing her thighs and nibbling her neck this situation was making me uncomfortable as well I slowly started to back up but accidentally stepped on the broken Jack Daniel's bottle my dad turned towards me " where you going you need to stay here and get aquatinted with Emma" he explained drunkenly I glanced at Emma she licked her bottom lip when our eyes met for a quick second... This whole situation was slowly creating a panic attack but then it vanished when my dad spoke his next sentence " just think about it Alex Emma might be your new Mom" he said as he bit her neck she moaned in responses. I begin to repeat what he said to me he wanted to replace Mom with this whore that anger that I was holding back soon consumed me " she's a slut not a mother" I stated angrily my dad stopped what he was doing and turned toward me a scowl was shown on his face "care to fucking repeat that Alex" he said as he stood up I backed up a bit but I wasn't going show any type of fear to him.
I didn't want to repeat myself I knew he heard me. " dad you do this all the time you can't just bring every woman you meet home" I saw my dad clutch his fist when I continue to talk, "every woman you meet isn't going to replace the wife you used to love" I said as my dad stood in front of me. His chest risen with anger he reaches for my right wrist and grips it tightly.
"The woman I use to love... is dead why can't you get that through you're damn head ALEX that bitch is gone so let me live my fucking life!" he yelled directly in my face. That was the final straw for me he had no right to speak about mom like that, "what happened to you, you aren't the man that mom married" I said bitterly my dad let go of my wrist and narrowed his eyes at me. "What do you mean what happened to me nothing has happened to me I'm still the same man you're mother married" he replied angrily. A harsh laugh escaped my lips " really so answer me this does the same man bring hookers home to please his lust does the same man come home to drink until his drunk because he lost his job since he was too intoxicated does this same man abuse his fucking kid because he can't cope with his wife death! So tell me dad does the same man that is loyally do all these things because I'm sure they don't so don't tell me you are the same man because you aren't" I said viciously.
My dad didn't answer me but I sometimes would notice his face twitching. Then he punched me in the stomach, I coughed and fell on my knees but he grabbed my hair and forced me to look at him. His face was filled with rage " you don't know anything your just a stupid kid and don't you ever speak to me like that I am your father so you treat me with respect" he snapped.
Then he threw my head to the floor. I winced when my head made contact to the wooden floor, I glanced at Emma she was touching herself while this was happening. I looked away from her and stared my father his fist was still balled up " and as your father, I expect an apology for your outburst" he stated, I glared him " you used to be my father so why would I ever apologize to you" I answered.
That remark had finally pushed him to his limit. He kicked me in the stomach and stormed towards the kitchen, I saw my dad open a cabinet That was above the stove he took out a medication bottle. My face paled when I realize what it was, he walks back to me and throws the bottle at me " take your fuckin antidepressants I'm done with your attitude tonight" he ordered the bottle rolled slightly back when it hit my chest. I clutch my stomach and stare at it with teary-eyes.
