WARNING: CONTAINS SELF HARM, PHYSICAL/MENTAL ABUSE

Amelia's P.O.V:

I wake up to Ponyboy's arms dangling in my face. "Pony." I say with a groan. I shove him off and get ready. I wore this (instead of shorts , jeans)

 I always covered my body. walk to the kitchen. Darry, Sodapop and Two-Bit are there.

"Morning Millie." Darry says. "Morning, whatchya making?" I say as I sit next to Two-Bit on the couch. "Eggs." He replies. I look over at the t.v, Two-Bit's watching Mickey Mouse. Of course. "Two, how do you find this so entertaining? It's so boring." I say as I put my feet on his lap. Sodapop's on the other side of him. "What? This show is amazing!" He replies pretending to be offended. I playfully roll my eyes. "Ponyboy!! Come eat!" Darry yelled. Pony came out of the room looking tired. "Good Morning Sleeping Beauty!" I say with a smirk. He yawned, "Mornin"

We sat at the table, except for Two-Bit, "Darry, can I go over to my friend's house after school?" I ask softly. The friend is Trevor, Trevor's my boy-friend, we have been dating for almost a year, Darry doesn't really know... And, he's a.......Soc. I'm pretty sure he just dates me for laughs, but I don't know. "For what?" "To study." "No. Not if your going alone. You could get jumped." "Darry. She won't go alone. Right?" Soda says glaring at him then looking at me.  "I'll go with some one" I lied. He sighed, "Fine. Be back by 4:20 and your home work better be done." I smiled, "Thanks Darry." Me and Ponyboy finished our food and cleaned the dishes. "Bye Guys. Pony you comin?" I say as I grab my back pack. "I'll catch up with you." He said.

 As I walk outside Dally was out there. Me and Dally were good friends. We flirt around a lot, but never have dated or anything. "Hey Hot stuff, Going to school?" He asked walking towards me. I nodded, "Yup." He walked closer and I walked back wards, soon my back was against the wall. He put his arm next to my head and lit a cancer stick, "Hey, umm, who's that boy friend of your's, uh, whats his name?" "I don't have a boyfriend" He laughed as he put the cigarette to my lips. I grabbed it and smoked it. (l don't know how to describe that sorry) "Seriously, I don't have a boy friend." I lied. He shook his head, "I know people and things, Amelia" I fake smiled, "I don't know what your talking about?" He took the cigarette, "Yeah, you do." He walked inside. Oh God, what if Dally know's about Trevor, he would tell Darry, I wouldn't hear the end of it from Darry and Soda.

I decided that maybe he didn't know, and was just all talk. I walked to my best friend, Sarah Mae's house. Her and Johnny are my best friends. She's not a greaser, but she's not a soc.. She has Brown hair, Olive eyes. Very nice. "Hey Sarah-Mae." I say as I walk up to her. She was walking out of her house, "Hey Millie." We talked for a while when Ponyboy came running, "RUN! MILLIE! RUN SARAH-MAE! RUN!!" We turned around to see a blue mustang charging at us. Socs. We ran and ran until we reached the school. They pulled up at the school and yelled at us. Calling us name's, the usual. "Im-out-of-breath." Sarah-Mae said breathing hard. Ponyboy sighed, "Same." We all laughed and entered the school.

----------Time Skip After School---------

*RING RING*

"Hey Babe." Trevor said as he grabbed my arms. "Hi." I said looking down. I didn't wanna go to his house, let alone be with him. "Your coming over right?" He asked squeezing my hand harder. I nodded, "Yeah. To study. I have to be home by  4:20." He sighed, "Yeah. Sure. Lets go." I tried to pull out of his grasp, "Hold on Trev let me tell Ponyboy I'm leaving." He let go, "Fine, hurry."  I walked over to Ponyboy, who was talking to Sarah-Mae, "Hey, I'm going over to my uh, friend's house. See you at home?" He smiled, "Yeah see you at home."

We got to his house and he opened the door. His mom was passed out on the couch with pills in one hand and alcohol in the other. I sat on his bed and pulled out my homework, he threw it on the ground. "What the heck Trevor? I was going to do my homework." I yelled angrily. He grabbed my chin harshly and my eyes met his, "Don't raise your voice at me." He slapped my hard in the face. I felt tears about to emerge. "I-I'm sorry" I picked up the papers from the ground. My vision became blurry as tears ran down my face, as I was walking I bumped into his dresser causing his items to fall. He growled, "Your so freaking stupid, you can't do anything right. God your so clumsy." I bent down to pick up his stuff, while I was on the ground he kicked my hard in the stomach. I winced in pain. " Ugh, Millie! Your worthless. I don't know why I'm still with you. We shouldn't even be together" He said still kicking me. I got up, "No. Please. Don't leave me. I love you." My voice was cracking. I sat on the bed next to him. He stared at me, "Fine." I leaned in and kissed him on the lips, we kissed for a while. When he finally parted, "Get out your homework." I took out my homework and we worked on it til 4:00. "Ok. I think I need to go now." I packed up my stuff. As I walked out the door Trevor said in a calm but harsh tone, "If you tell anybody, I will kill you and your  loved ones." A tear ran down my face as I walked out. I felt bruises all over my body and my face still hurt from the slap.

I got to my house and quickly wiped my tears away. I walked inside. Dally, Ponyboy, Steve and Sodapop were there, "Hey Soda." He smiled, "Hey Millie!" Then he frowned, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Shoot. I  fake laughed, "I'm not crying." He looked confused, "Oh.Um, Ok." Dally raised an eyebrow and smirked. I glared at him. "I'm gonna go in my room." Sodapop said, "Okay. Darry's coming a little late, so I'll make dinner." I nodded.

I sat on my bed and silently cried for about 10 minutes. I got up and decided that I needed to take a shower to cool off. I grabbed a random long sleeve shirt, it's probably Sodapop's or Darry's, and some leggings and my underwear. No bra, I needed to cool off. I didn't tell them I was taking a shower, I just forgot. Usually I have to remind them since the door knob is broken, since don't want any of them walking in on me. I turned on the water and stepped in. I cried some more in the shower. After a while, I got out. I wrapped my body in a towel, exposing only my arms. I glanced at them, they were covered with bruises and cuts. I sigh, If Darry or Sodapop or even Ponyboy found out about this, they would kill me. I was tracing my cuts with my finger when the door swung open. 

Dally's P.O.V:

"Im'a use the bathroom." I tell Soda as I pat him on the back. He nods and continues talking to Steve and Ponyboy. I open the bathroom door and see Amelia with cuts and bruises on her arms. "Amelia what-" She pulls my in and shuts the door.

Amelia's P.O.V:

I pull Dally in and shut the door. "What the heck Dallas? You don't just go opening restroom doors?"  "Sorry. Amelia, what happened to your arms?" I forgot that I was naked with only a towel. I opened my mouth but no sound comes out. "Amelia? Did your boy friend do that?" He said with a concerned look. I felt tears running down my face, and I shook my head, "No." You could barely hear me. I stare at the ground. I could feel his eyes scanning me. "Don't lie." Dally said angrily. I looked up, "Ok, Winston. My boy friend abuses me  but I can't find my self to leave him. He is abusive to me and rude but at the end of the day I can't seem to say bye." He has a stern face, but his eyes, they're filled with worry and sadness. "Amelia. Why didn't you tell some one? Or at least Johnny or Me?" Tears were streaming down my face like a river, "He said If I told anyone he would kill me, you, the gang and Sarah-Mae." He awkwardly hugged me, "Shh.Shh." I cried into his shirt, "I'm sorry." He wrapped his arms around me, "It's ok. Don't apologize." I pulled away and stopped crying, "Promise me you won't tell anyone." He sighed, "Promise."

 I smiled, "Turn around please." He turned the other way. I quickly put on my under wear and the shirt. "Ok. You can turned back around. I hugged him, he smelled like cigarettes. "Thank You." He chuckled and slightly hugged me back. The door swung open. Darry. "Dallas Winston get out of the restroom NOW!" I let go of Dally. He smirked at me and walked out. "Amelia! HOW DARE YOU!" I was confused, "How dare me what?" "You were in the restroom with Dally. Care to explain?" Darry didn't like me to hang out with him. I giggled, "Darry, we only made out." His mouth hung open, I grabbed my clothes and walked out.
