One-hundred Sleepless Nights (Vic Fuentes is my dad)

Chapter 8

^^^a week later^^^

It's been a week and I still get threatening calls.

Nothing has happened but I have figured out I have a twin brother.

My mom put him in foster care when we were born 'cause she couldn't take both of us.

I think Vic would be so much more happy if he had the son and not me.

I'm too much work for everyone.

Mike keeps telling me that's not true but I know it is.

I've distanced myself from everyone so once I leave I won't hurt anyone.

I would much rather me get hurt and everyone else isn't.

Caleb checks if I cut every day, but he only checks my wrists and thighs.

Lately I've been cutting my stomach so he won't get mad at me.

Vic has been trying really hard to get to know me and be a good father but I have to make sure I don't let him in.
Soon I will be gone and when I say soon I mean it.

Today actually.

I'm leaving tonight and I'm going to Meet Brian.

He said e wouldn't touch any of my friends if I left them all and did what he says.

Today is my last day with everyone so I'm trying to spend as much time as possible with everyone before I'm gone.

Right now I'm out with Caleb.

"Are you sure your alright babe? You seem distant." He says breaking my train of thought.

"Yeah, I'm fine just thinking"

"What're you thinking about"

"Um... Just thinking..."

"What's wrong babe?"

"Nothing Caleb. Just drop it."

"I hate it when you do that Al."

"Do what?"

"Push everyone away for you when all we are trying to do is help you."

"That's what I do Caleb. If you don't like it then don't date me."

"Seriously Alli... You know I love you. Why would you even think about something like that?"

"Just stop Caleb, alright?"

With that I walked away for the park leaving him there mad.

Once I get back to the buses I walk to PTV's bus. Once I walk in I hear my name. I don't make any noises and listen.

"What am I supposed to do? I'm trying so hard to get to know her but she won't let me..." I hear Vic say.

"I don't know what's going on with her in all honesty bro. She seems more distant with everyone not just you" mike says back.

"Why though... She knows we all care about here. I think she is just worried with this Brian shit. What is the story there anyways?"

Oh please no mike...

"I don't really know that much bro. All I know is that he really hurt her physically and mentally and he hurt he mom too. But she didn't even tell me about the... R-rape so I don't know what else there is."

"Yeah what the deal with that too. Why wouldn't she tell me something like that?"

"I don't know bro sorry..."

I slam the door shut and walk up the bus stairs.

Mike and Vic both jump as look at me.

"Oh,hi Alli..." Mike says.
