Richies pov

My front door slammed open and I immediately sat up and looked around scarcely.

I got up and put some pants on and peaked out my door. Eddie heard me and he said in a tired voice, "is everything ok?".
I looked at him and shook my head no.

Then I heard a familiar yet scary voice, "Richie??".
Shit my dad, I looked at Eddie and I said, "go in my closet".
He looked at me confused and said, "w-why?".
"Just fucking do it", I said frustratedly.

Eddie got up and went in my closet.

"I'm sorry", I whispered as I closed the door.

My door swung open and my heart sank as I saw my dad.

"Richie why isn't your ass at school?", he asked angrily.
I looked at him and I didn't know what to say, "uh hi dad, haven't seen you in 8 months".

He crossed his arms and said, "believe me, in those 8 months, they were the best 8 months of my life Because I was away from you".
I looked down and frowned, am I that bad of a person?
"You gonna answer my question or are you gonna be a little bitch?", he asked as he stepped closer.
"I-I got suspended", I said.

Suddenly, I felt a familiar yet terrible feeling. He slapped me across the cheek and my glasses flew across the room and completely broke.

My cheek was red and stung like crazy, "for what?", he asked angrily.
"Me and a kid got in a fight", I said timidly.

Then I felt a punch to my jaw. I yelped and started choking on my tears. "Please stop", I begged.
"No phone, no nothing for the last three days, got it son", he said pulled his fist back again.
I flinched and put my hands up defending me, "ok, ok, I'm sorry", I said as I cried.

He gave a nod and slammed my door.

I fell to floor with my tears streaming down my face, then I remembered, Eddie, I opened the closet door and wiped a tear.

Eddie immediately pulled me into a hug and said, "I'm so sorry baby, you don't deserve this".
I sobbed in his shoulder and said, "it's like o-old times again".
"I'm so so sorry", he said as he pulled me in a tighter hug, "lets get out of here".
I nodded and looked at my broken glasses, "I-I can't see anything".
Eddie looked at the glasses then at me and said, "we'll get you new glasses, don't worry about it baby it's ok".
I nodded again and tears started to form as my jaw ached like crazy.

Eddie looked at me and started to cry a little. He pulled me into a hug again and said, "let's go baby, lets get out of here".
"Ok", I said as buried my head in his shoulder.

"It's ok baby, it's ok", Eddie kept saying over and over.
