Jordan Matthew's POV
I walked downstairs to find my drunk mom. Great. She saw me and glared.
"What the hell are you looking at?" She snapped and I backed away. She stepped towards me and slapped me. I know I should fight back but it's my mom. I grabbed my XC stuff and left to get Jordan in my black ford.
Ever since my dad left my mom and I, my mom has beaten me. Nobody knows about it, not even my friends. My dad was he best, but he found love in a blonde girl twenty years younger then him and ran away with her. My mom is now an alcoholic and is never home so I basically survive by myself.
I joined XC to get away from my mom. I found out that I loved the sport and that I'm really good at it, but not as good as Payton Morn. He gets first every time. I enjoy the sport, but also love basketball just as much.
