Mr.Sadie's tight grip curled around my wrist. "Let me go!" I shouted. "Stop, it hurts!" He continued to drag me down the stairs, completely ignoring my pleas. "Please, Mr.Sadie, we won't be loud again!" Before I could protest anymore, we were at the bottom of the stairs and going into the living room.The strong sent of alcohol hit me as we went through the door and smoke from cigarettes filled the room. His usual five friends were there waiting: Tom,Dale,Felix,Killian and Harry.
"Long time no see, Millie," His friend Tom said as he pushed a cigarette into the ash tray. "Making a hell of a lot of noise you were, 'nooo Mr.Sadie nooooo'" He said, making an impression of me as the rest of the men laughed. Tom was probably the worst of them all; he hurt and mocked me and Rider the most. "Y'know, you shouldn't be so scared of us," a friend called Dale said as he pulled my head back by my hair. He then gave me a flick on the noise and shoved my head back down. "The little bitch was talking to her precious Rider." They all sniggered at Mr.Sadie's words as he sat down in his chair and left me standing in front of all them. Tom came and knelt down in front of me. He lit another fag in front of my face and the tilted my head up so that I was looking him right in the eyes. " I think Rich doesn't teach you his rules clearly." (Mr.Sadie's real name was Richard, but we were never allowed to call him that.) Tom pushed my sleeve up my arm and pressed his cigarette into my skin. "Ow!" I screamed trying to pull away from his grasp but he wouldn't let go. I quickly began to cry, pain filling my arm. "Get of me you..."
"You what?" He said, pulling the fag off of my skin. I clenched it, pulling my sleeve down my thin arm. "You what, Millie!" Mr.Sadie's friend Killian shouted, getting up and placing his hands on my shoulders. My cheeks flushed bright red, knowing that either way,speaking or not, I was going down the same path.
" Fine then, Millie, I guess we're just gonna have to punish you for that." Tom grabbed my arm and pulled me towards the radiator. He pulled the piece of rope that was already there and tied it tightly around my wrists. The tough fabric was rough on my skin and irritated me a lot. Killian continuously punched my face until the rope was tightly secured. "You're not going anywhere, bitch." Tom grabbed a bit of duck tape and wrote something on the top with a pen. He stuck it over my mouth and laughed at me. "Don't tell anyone, that's what it says, Millie. Remember that, you never tell anyone what we do to you. EVER." They stoped hurting me and carried on with smoking and talking loudly as I just sat there on the floor, crying.
