The light shined between my window blinds, burning my eyes. I soon realized it was time to get ready and head out to school before i had to deal with my family.

"scarlet! wake up!" My moms voice raised from the kitchen. I knew she was going to say that. I sighed, followed by the best stretch ever. Getting ready for school is an important thing to do for me. If i don't I'm going to get picked on. Don't get me wrong, i still get bullied for my scars and style but i just don't want to add more gas to the fire. still i have to say, i rather be in school then at home. I hate this place so much. I can't even stand the sight of this house. That's why i can't wait to walk out this house!

I drew a thick Cote of black eyeliner and a pierce the veil tee-shirt followed by some skinny jeans and vans. I opened my door and speed walked towards the front door before anyone saw me. But with the luck i have i was to late.

"where the hell are you going?" My mom questioned.

"I'm going to school were else?" I didn't want to sound like a smart ass but she deserved it. I'm a good kid for christ sakes! I saw my dad sitting in the kitchen table like he had a stick up his ass and my mom next to him.

Soon my father got in the conversation just to put me on my place "Don't talk to you're mother that way you little brat!"

That was it. I snapped."Are you kidding me?! You scream at her like she's a dog and you tell me to stop?!" In a second he got up from the kitchen table walking towards me with rage in each step.

"listen here you little shit! I should smack that mouth of yours!" He stated with his eyes beaming out.

"do it then!" I still keep pushing his buttons and i wasn't gonna stop there but my mom stopped the button pushing for everyone's safety.

"scarlet! Show some God damn respect to us! Were you're parents! Now sit down and eat your breakfast!"

I got settled back into my little insignificant level and said in a irritated voice, "I'm not hungry. Ima go to school. Bye."

"Why do you want to leave so early?!" My mom asked with frustration.

Before i could answer that, my brother Derek walked in to our conversation and bluntly stated "cuz she doesn't want to be here. Little emo girl wants to go cut herself in school"

I couldn't believe he said that. My eyes snapped wide with shock, as did my moms. That was it. I was at my limit but you can't blame me right?! So i gave him what he rightfully deserved!

"SHUT THE FUCK UP DEREK. AT LEAST I GO TO SCHOOL! All you do is DRINK. you CAN'T TALK about ME so SHUT. THE. FUCK. UP!"

Dereks eyes opened in anger and his hand turned into fists. Once i realized what he was going to do I turned to shield myself from his actions but it was to late. He grabbed my wrist twisting it towards his direction forcing me to look at him, and my face? a perfect target. He pulled his hand back and lashed it across my right cheek. I fell to the ground from the impact and tears began to fall just like i did. I was in shock. It all happened so fast and my parents didn't even stop him. i looked at my parents for help but they just stared at me with shock.

"GET YOUR ASS UP!" Derek ordered. How could i? All i wanted to do was cry. Cry like a little kid. So i did. As pathetic as it may sound it helped in some way.

With my blurry vision i saw my brother Max quickly walk with a irritated expression written all over his face. He raised his left hand and swinged it once towards Derek, clashing onto his lower jaw. Derek slammed against the cold hard floor just like i did because of the impact.

"don't fucking hit her like that again you dumb ass!"

Both of my parents were screaming like wild chickens telling Max that he shouldn't have done that but he just said "why don't y'all act like good fucking parents!? FOR ONCE! It's your damn JOB!"

Even though it felt soooo good to see Derek knocked out and my parents getting screamed at, i knew Max. he was going to start roasting on me too and soon enough... i was right.

"And you! get the hell up and stop crying! DEFEND YOURSELF FOR FUCK SAKE. Your old enough to do that aren't you!?" Max roared without letting me even answer.

I hated him. I hated derek. I hated my parents and I hated myself most of all...

arguments were still being screamed in the air making me have a panic attack. my mind was filling up with millions of thoughts.

'Your so weak scarlet! That's why you don't have any friends. No one fucking loves you! Who could? You don't even love yourself! Your so pathetic! I hate you. I HATE YOU. I HATE YOU!'

Next thing i know i was repeating those same words with my loudest voice, "I hate you! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!! EVERYONE IN THIS GOD FORSAKEN HOUSE!!!

Everyone stopped fighting and stared at me in shock while silence filled the air; I ran off as my first instinct.

I didn't want anything but my music and my razor blade. Tears were flying off my eyes from the speed that i was running. Once i saw the school in my sights i had so much weight lifted off my shoulders. I was so relieved to see that 8 hour prison hell hole. Who knew i would love school this much..?
