love you too much

Chapter 1 (half edited)

My eyes fluttered open as I tossed my body over from one side of the other, fighting the feeling of being awake. I sighed heavily before dragging myself up to sit straight up. My body slumped over from the exhaustion of last night's events. The floor boards croaked as I gently placed my feet onto them and made my way to rinse off the feeling I once knew. As I stripped from my loose pajamas, I caught a glimpse of my reflection. The purple bruise covered my right cheek, extending to my chin as well as the hickey's running down my neck on the opposing side. I shook away the tears before storming over to the edge of the bathtub. I turned the knob with the red H to release the scaling hot water before pulling the small pin to close the drain. Awaiting for my bath to fill, I reminisced about all the good times I've been through within my life. I slipped one foot in before submerging myself up to my neck. Momma wouldn't have wanted to this way.

Her pearly white teeth showed as the tall, skin muscular gentlemen pushed back the lace veil that hide her face once before. A tear fell from the side of his eye and her gorgeous hands wiped it away. The ceremony hadn't even began but you could tell they were madly in love with each other and they wanted this forever. The preacher began

"I don't even look like the same girl," I said as my bottom eyelids began to swell, holding back the tears I wanted to release.

I shook my head and started peeling the limited clothes I was allowed to wear while I was sleeping off my body. I stepped into the shower, turning the handle until it was at the bottom of the red bar. The feeling of hot water on my skin always calmed me down. I wrapped my arms around my torso as I stared into the glass of the shower wall, hopelessly as my mind began to race with thoughts.

"I'm never going to escape this place," I thought while shutting my eyes, drifting off into the only place i thought I would be safe, my dream place.

I always liked to think of a place which I could call home. I could be loved and cared for. I wouldn't be beaten half to death and/or raped. I would be safe and sound with sheltering arms wrapped around me all the time.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when the bathroom creaked open and in came the devil himself. He looked at me with pure disgust as he bent over the sink to get himself ready for work. I watched him closely as I shielded my naked body from view. After he finished his business, he approached the door of the shower then unfastened it. His clothes fell off his body before he stepped in alongside me. The door closed to the shower and to my only "me" time.

"Did you enjoy last night, Syn?"

I nodded.

"See," he grabbed a wash-rag and a bar of soap to wash his body," I told you, you would get use to it."

I , often times, lied to Ivan to avoid getting hit. I would get spared each and every time.

Ivan was the idiot human being I called my husband. It's pretty dumb to marry someone who does horrendous things to you constantly, but I had no other choice.

"What do you want?!?!?" You semi yelled.

He then arose from the bed and walked over to my side, casting a dark shadow over me. He stooped down to my level, raising my head to look him into his dark, dead eyes. His rugged lips smashed into mines containing little to no passion as his hand dropped to my sore neck. His grip then started to tighten around my neck, crushing my windpipe. The little oxygen I had left my body quickly. My eyes started to feel heavy and the rest of my body was limp. Blackness now covered the room. I was out of it.

August

Beep!Beep!Beep! My alarm clock sang,

After I got for eating I decided I should go watch the clouds. I walked out there n I saw her door open n someone come out. She walked past me with her head down n her pink hood over her hair.

I hopped up from my seat n started walking next to her.

"Hey." I said warmly.

(Your outfit for this chapter is in the comments)

"Hi." She said hoarsely.

"Are you okay?" I asked concernly.

She nodded n walked a little fast. I decided I should walk faster with her.

<YN>

Can be please get away from me?! I'm not supposed to be talking to boys! He is going to get me in trouble. I walked into the local candy store n grabbed me a Snapple fruit punch n some sour patch kids and a pickle. I looked around to see he was by my side still.

"Can you please get away from me!?" You asked loudly but still quietly.

"Not until you tell me your name." He said while taking the stuff out of my hands and paying for it.

"YN happy!" I said grabbing my bag and walking out.

He walked after me and grabbed my wrist softly.

"Please stop walking." He asked softly.

"I have to get home!" I said ripping my hand away from him.

"Please!" He begged.

I stopped walking and looked at him.

"Look. I'm August and I'm not a stalker or nothing but I have seen with my own two eyes what has been happening to you!" He said looking me in my eyes.

I them started to tear up and walk away.

<August>

She really doesn't want my help. She's meanie than I thought. I don't want he to go back there an continue to get beaten! I saw the tears in her eyes as she walked away. I then slowly started to walk home.
