"Maxwell get up. You have school in an hour and you need to get ready." Someone was whispering in my ear. I slowly opened my eyes to see my smiling brother above me. Aww what a ni- Wait did he just call me hun and wake me up politely? Did the world just shift? Am I going cra-

I did not see that coming as Dallas whacked me across the face. The sickening crack of my cheek made me gasp out.

"I said get the fuck up dumbass. Damn I was trying to be nice and trying to wake you up without being a dick. Yet you have to stare at me stupidly and gawk at me. Are you fucking stupid?! Get the hell up and get ready before I knock the living day lights out of your scrawny ass!" He yelled then he stormed up the stairs.

There that's the Dallas I knew. I admit he wasn't ugly at all. He is a male model. That's how he makes all his money. I just don't understand why he treats me like this. I whimpered, each step I took sent a sharp pain through my body, I made it to the shower and slipped my clothes off. I got in and looked down at my bruised body. I know for a fact I'm going to need something to cover my arms.

I got out and got dressed in my red skinnies, plain black v neck long sleeved shirt, and black vans. I blow dried my perfectly straight black hair. I flipped it out of my eyes so it wouldn't bug them. My hair is scene styled so it was longer. I stared back at my reflection. I pulled out the concealer. Time to get to work. I covered my bruises an put some on the black circles under my green eyes.

Now I looked at my reflection and saw what I used to see years ago... A normal kid. There was only one thing missing... The life that was in my eyes.

I grabbed my black backpack and flung it over my shoulder. Heading up stairs in fear of facing my brother for the second time this morning.

I entered the kitchen and grabbed an apple. Two muscular arms wrapped around me and I went stiff my eyes got wide. I probably looked like a deer stuck in headlights.

"I'm sorry for hitting you earlier." My voice was caught in my throat while he whispered his minty breath against my cheek.

"I-I'm sorry for umm... staring like a idiot. I de-deserved it." I bowed my head as I choked on some of my words. He hugged me tighter and kissed my cheek.I just stood stiff and wide eyed.

"I better be getting you to school Maxie." He let go and ruffled my hair.

"O-okay." I mumbled.

"And try to stop sumbling over your words would you." It wasnt a question it was a statement and so I nodded and walked to the car. This morning has been so unusual.

"Ayy sexy boy!" I heard as soon as I reached my locker. I looked into the chocolate brown eyes of Nate Clovers. My best friend.

I blushed at the comment and turned quickly so he couldn't see.

"So what happened last night?" He asked casually. I went stiff and stopped moving only for a second, but started moving again.

"Please Nate... Don't." I whispered.

"Max your going to have to tell someone."

He growled next to me.

"I don't have to do anything I don't want to." I whispered back. Mostly to myself because I know what he was about to say.

"So you want him to hurt you in all the ways possible." He said loudly. I was getting mad so before I sad anything I would regret I started my way to my first block.

"Maxwell Garret Cullen. Don't walk away from me." I stopped at the use of my full name. Even though I want to say many things I thought against it and just continued walking. Tears pulling at my eyes. He slammed his locker. Great another one of these days.
