Chris's P.O.V.

'' Dad , what are you doing home so early ?'' I asked flashing a nervous smile . He just glared at me .

'' Why werent you home , when I came back ?'' he asked in his raspy voice .

'' I just had a walk around the block .'' I said and he stood up . I took a step back .

'' You know that I hate it when you lie .'' he said .'' And what happens when I dont like something ?'' he asked coming closer .

'' Bad things .'' I mumbled .

''Exactly .'' he said shoving me on the wall . The acute pain on my spine , caused to my falling to the ground .I placed my hands on my face, as he kicked me repeatedly .'' You are just like her , a liar .'' he screamed .'' A fucking liar .'' he repeated . I know to whom he refers to . Mum . She lied to him . To both of us . She said that she would come back , but she never did . And that hurted him . He is hurt .  He grabbed me from my hair and I screamed .'' Shut up .'' he yelled , throwing me in the other side of the room . I heard a beer smashing . I opened my eyes to see him coming closer holding a piece of glass in his hands .'' Dont yell .'' he said .

Ashton's P.O.V.

 (A/N PLAY SONG ON THE SIDE )

''What do you mean ?'' I asked her , looking directly into her warm , brown eyes .

'' I mean that I like you , Ashton . I like you for who you are . I like this version of you . '' she said and the beat of my heart quickened .'' Can I kiss you ?'' she asked in a low voice . I placed my hand on her cheek and brought us closer , crashing my lips with hers . Her soft lips move perfectly with mine , as her hands rest on my neck . I unbuckled the seat belt , my lips not leaving hers . She eventually pulls away , resting her forehead on mine . 

'' I am falling for you .'' I said kissing her again softly .

My body shot up , as my eyes opened .I felt wetness all over my body . What if I pissed the bed ? I checked under the covers only to be relieved to find out that it was just sweat . Well , that dream was just ... weird .It felt so fucking true . I am not falling for her . I dont fall for girls . I will never fall for a girl . No , no , no . I am not falling for her . 

I wonder if she has had something similar . I mean a dream about me . What am I thinking ? She doesnt like me , why would she ? I am hurting her , causing her pain . Plus , I am a mess and she is just perfect . She is pretty , an A student , she has a good heart , she is so selfless !! As I said I am a mess . I am mean , I am bad , I hurt people . I have done things to her , that I am certainly not proud of . How can a girl like her fall for a monster like me ? It is just impossible .

She may not be here , but I think about her . I catch myself thinking about her way too much . More than I should . I dont know why and how she makes me fell more vunerable . I cant stop thinking about what she said tonight '' I like this version of you .'' What did she mean by that ? She likes this version of me . What version ? Does that mean that she enjoyed the date . WAIT , DATE ? It was not a date , was it ? To be honest , I enjoyed the whatever that was too . I have never had that much fun with someone . I usually drink to have fun.

Tonight I had fun without drinking . It was not that we went ice skating , it was her company that I enjoyed the most . When that guy pushed her . I lost it . I was upset . I dont want anybody hurting her . I want to protect from the cruel world . I want to hold her in my arms . I want her to fell happy when she is around me . I want to be the reason for her smile . Oh , shit  . I am falling for her  .

The next morning

 I impatiently tapped my pen on the desk . Why hasnt she come today ? Maybe she is late . But the problem is that she is never late . Especially when we have Maths .She always comes in class earlier than the teacher . I am a bit worried . What if something hapened to her ? She was okay last night . What if her dad did something ? What of he hit her again ? 

The teacher started explaining the lesson , when I heard a knock on the door . The door weakly opened and she came in . '' Sorry that I was late .'' she said in a voice barely audible .'' Come in love . It is okay .'' the teacher said . ''Thank you .'' she asked in a trembling voice . She slowly walked to the back . Her head kept looking on the ground like she was hiding something . The whole hour I kept looking at her , trying to find a hint . But nothing , she was sittng alone - Michael seems to be skipping Maths again - writing in her notebook . Throughout the entire lesson , I didnt manage to take glimpse of her face .

The bell rung and I waited for everyone to leave the class , she was still taking some notes . I noticed the teacher leaving . From the corner of my eye I saw her shoving her books in her bag . I went to her side , preventing her from leaving . I stood in front of her , her eyes facing the ground . I lifted her chin with my finger and brushed her hair off her face . The sight that I witnessed was horrible . Her right eye was bruised and swollen and her bottom lip had a cut .She kept holding her sleeves . I gently rolled her sleeves up . Besides the scars , there were cuts long cuts covering her entire arm .I looked at her eyes , her watery , brown eyes . She broke down . I hugged her . I hugged her tightly. '' He - t-told me n-not to y-yell .'' she sobbed and I felt my anger building up .He did it . I have to do something about this .
