The leaves looked green at dawn.the street lights changes red ,honking and people walking strollers.Guess what I'm in one of those baby's in a stroller I'm Hailey. My mother hits every bump on the side walk going partially slow. Then a dad comes running in front of us with a little boy in the stroller. My mother flips out and let's go of the stroller and I go to rolling down the hill, into a bush. That's how I got this scar on my head. "Wait" said my friend Lucas." I was in that stroller!" you made me fall in a bush" I said. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry are we still friends?" said Lucas. I obviously said yes cause we've been friend's all my life.i was only twelve there now I'm 17. Today ,when he walked in school with his hoodie on, he asked me "Do I look like Justin Bieber?" "of course," I replied. we always are childish around each other. but that was different when I realized he liked at me straight in the eye-wait I looked at him straight in his eyes...

I'm in love with Lucas for the first time, I want to tell him, but how was I going to? I looked back and he said "See ya in 5th period." "Ok. I repeated. he looked at me strange. So I went to 1st period and saw Mylie. I told her what happend. Mylie just freakishly stared at me. it was finally 9th period and the end of the day came. this girl named Lexi walked straight in the room and pushed me out of my seat cause she wanted to sit by Braydon. So I sat in the back. You can tell Lexi is popular and if anyone stands up for them selves to Lexi you wouldn't be coming back to school for at least a month because of her boyfriend Andy. So I moved. On the bus ride home I sat by myself again. I'm the 6th to last one off and I sit in seat 22 cause I'm the only one who has an assigned seat. When I got off I opened our front door. Meg, my dog, came out. She's a bull mastiff puppy, but very big and strong for her age. I went up to my room when Lucas called then Mylie they both asked if the could come over to spend the night. I asked my mom she said yes cause it was a weekend. When they got here Chad knocked on the door. I ran downstairs to tell him to leave but Chad just dropped him off. Mylie had been dropped off earlier. Mylie started laughing because of me telling him to leave. She turned and ran and I ran after her.

I feel better when I don't think about it I told them that my dad likes to break in our house while we are sleeping for money. Lucas didn't believe me.Later, when we were supposed to be sleeping, I slowly fell off the bed into Lucas's arms. I felt odd once again. I heard foot steps and Lucas and I pretended to sleep side by side and hold hands. I got worried it was my dad. My hand started to sweat. Lucas didn't mind the footsteps as they crept closer. I got so worried that I squeezed his hand. Lucas said"Its going to-" my mom came in walking backwards with my dad pushing her up against the wall. Lucas and I squeezed our hands together, hoping that my dad was not going to kill my mom with the knife in his hand.Mylie was awake screaming and my dad tried to threaten her, but it was too late she ran out of the room. Lucas and I kept our eyes closed but my parents knew that we are awake. I stood up and looked at mom and quickly raised my eyebrows and tilted my head toward the wooden box on my dresser. My mom ran over and my dad pushed her down on the floor. He opened the wooden box and smiled. I took a sledge hammer and hit him in the head, he landed on the carpet going into wood my mom smiled and said"good idea but grad that knife!" Lucas was just sitting there on the bed I went over and started to cry and told him "this isn't the worst."since my dad was unconscious we hugged and I cried on his shoulder. then I stood back it was only a second till I got knocked over.I couldn't see who it was till I hit the ground he had his fist up in the air like was going to punch Lucas,I screamed"NOOO!" My dad turned to me and said"oh do you want some." I ran out of the room he was going to run but Lucas said "NOOOO!!!" Mylie was at the kitchen table crying.I joined her when I heard Lucas getting punched down the steps. I told Mylie to hide in my dog Meg's room so she did and I followed.We went In there and Meg was sleeping till she woke up.We opened the door Meg ran to my dad we heard a loud thud and 3 barks in a row. Lucas came in and he has all beaten up. He hugs me Mylie doesn't mind it was a few seconds and he pulled back and said"i love you." closer and closer we got till the feeling was like I just kissed a boy, oh wait that's what's going on .Meg opens the door she's good at that and came in Lucas laughed.He looked at me in my eyes I felt different like I was tingling all over and I wanted a kiss so bad but he hugged me I squeezed him he let go "Lucas "I said im sorry for earlier that's alright at least I'm here with you now Lucas whispered I thought I shut my eyes but mylie shut off the lights and shushed us then a quick second later we heard big boots stomping the ground shook it was like he was drunk. I hope you could tell it was my dad.we all stood still till we heard the front door open and close I was shaking when I stood up. I couldn't see I reached for the door knob but insted I fell on mylie she fell down we couldn't here Lucas when mylie fell she fell on the light switch and turned on the light. yes I know I caused my best friends to cry then it hit me I couldn't find my mom.So I turned Meg barked I laughed then I turned again Lucas was looking at me with his blue eyes and his messy dirty blond hair he came closer and I backed to the wall he fallowed. Meg whinned we kissed it was wierd I went in more. Mylie left the room and Meg barked.When we heard a knock on the door, I ran to it and said "who is it?" they answered in a perky way"let me in!" I opened it Lexi walked past me Andy was out side.Lucas was sitting on the steps with all of his bruises on his head Lexi said come somewhere safe Lucas.he ran upstairs and I told them to get out of my MF house she grabbed Andy and walked up stairs and I saw Lucas packing his bag and calling his dad he lives with his dad and only his dad I apolagised but he ignored me.Andy grabbed his bag and Lexi pulled him out of the room. I saw my mom calling the sales man to look for a new house I saw Mylie walking out side with them I trusted Lexi that night, and went with the plan.In the morning I ran down stairs and I saw my mom sweeping the floor from all the dirty boot marks.I ran down and started to eat the food my mom made for me she always has breakfast ready

For me.I was eating like a pig when my mom came in she slapped all of our and more of our money on the table I said " how did you get it?" I asked "your father left it "my mom said I grabbed it and an to my room with a mouth full of eggs.I did that just to be funny then my mom tackled me,till I let go we both laughed I changed and packed all my cloths to get ready and move. I have no idea where my mom told me its a surprise I ran to get Meg up as soon as I opened the door Meg was in the same spot that I saw her last night but on her back with her paws up in the air. I turned to get mom but she was up and walking out the door to the stairs where my mom was. I screamed " ALERT ALERT! " Up to my Mom she shut the door so she couldn't get in.Meg came running back down the steps I pulled out the leash and grabbed her collar pulled back the little thing and clipped it on to the hook the door creaked as I opened it. and I put her in my moms trunk.I walked in side and my mom gave me a bag and told me"anything else you want put it in this bag." I grabbed it and packed what she forgot to Grab and I stuck my phone in my sweat shirt pocket we put our suitcases and other things in the back seat. I was waiting for my mom in the car with the back window in the trunk open it.was like 70 degree out side my mom got in the car and handed me hot chocolate, I was now ready.
