Billy's POV:

I jolted awake gasping for air.

It was completely dark, night time. I forced myself to be quiet not wanting to wake anyone up, even though all I wanted to do was cough and scream and cry my heart out.

But I can't.

Biting my lip to keep my noises non existent I ended up biting my lip the blood falling onto the floor. I need to clean it. If the Smiths found this, momma and I will both be blamed. We'll get beaten worse.

Not having the energy to walk to the kitchen and back to clean then go to my room, I just wiped it up with my sleeve.

To not waste and throw away any clothes thanks to momma I know how to get blood out of clothes. Hydrogen peroxide. It works wonders I promise.

Slowly pushing myself up I made my way to my room. Looking at the clock, 2 a.m., I still have  3 hours before I have to get up and get ready for school. But I'm not going back sleep anytime soon I won't be able to.

Deciding to just get ready and and fill out all of the first day of school papers you get. After filling out the papers and taking a shower I walked into my closet, what to wear, what to wear.

I picked out a baggy pastel pink and purple Nike long sleeve, a pair of boyfriend jeans and my white converse.

I avoided looking into the mirror as long as I could but I have to to put on my makeup. Slowly looking up tears instantly started falling.

Their was a very prominent and visible hand print bruise around my neck. It was already black, purple and blue with yellow along the edges.

I buttoned my shirt up all the way to see it it would hid the bruise and it did thank goodness. I don't have any foundation to cover it up. Mr. Smith always avoided visible areas. If it was I would have to ask momma, I don't want her to see what he did.

After I was done putting on my makeup I made my way downstairs to make breakfast since it was still early and momma was probably still sleeping.

When I was close to done momma came downstairs ready for the day an apron around her waist and a new bruises showing through her sleeves.

"Sweetie what you doing? Oh you didn't need to help me with that, here let me set the table"

I only giggled at her as she didn't let me respond and hurried to get the table ready. Finishing breakfast, eggs, sausage and muffins I plated the Smiths food. grabbing a muffin for me and momma and walked to the front door were momma was with my bag.

"Are you gonna walk with me to school again mom?" I asked while handing her a muffin. She nodded her head putting a huge smile on my face yay! We left
quickly before the Smiths could even make it downstairs.

Adrians POV:

I walked towards the entrance of the school, Walker besides me, Damon holding hands with Starr in front of us with Nessa next to Starr.

I promised the girls that I would take them to school today after giving them the monkey balls. Plus the leader of The Shadow is the principal of the school I guess. I need to meet with him to sign the contract.

I looked around us and noticed that literally everyone's eyes were on us. Ignoring them all we walked into the school, the girls leading us to the office.

"Alright girls we'll pick you up from school alright? Have a good day" I told them. Damon gave Starr a kiss and I Walker smiling at Nessa. He's had feelings for her forever but never did anything he was scared.

Why is a story for another time.

"Alright bye gu- HEY BILLY" the guys and I flinched at Nessa unexpectedly screaming. Nessa and Starr ran past us and starting hugging what I'm guessing a girl or a VERY small guy.

Curious as to who this Billy is me and the guys all stepped forward a bit and waited for the girls to turn around. When they did a smirk immediately made its way to my face.

My princess.

"Well hello their again little one" I spoke as I took another step towards her making her look at the ground shyly.

The guys heads snapped towards me their mouths falling open, as the girls were biting their lips to stop themselves from smiling.

"H-hi s-sir" she mumbled

"Why do you call him sir?" Her head snapped up to the new voice her eyes landing on Damon.

"Oh I'm sorry I'm Damon this idiots best friend,
Nessa's brother and Starr's boyfriend and this is Walker"

"I-I'm Billy a-and b-be-cause it-s n-not p-polite to call t-those old-er s-sir and m-ma'-am" she had a blush rise on her cheeks, my hands twitching to move the hair on her face behind her ear.

"Well little one you don't need to worry about that okay? You don't have to call any of us sir. Besides I have another name I'd rather you call me" I mumbled the last part not expecting her to hear but my baby did.

"W-what w-would you l-like me t-to c-call yo-ou?"
She tilted her head to the side seeming genuinely curious. I smiled clearing my throat as Walker, Damon were laughing their asses off, Starr and Nessa coughing to cover theirs.

"Don't worry about that just yet, baby, you girls get to class you don't want to be late. Billy do you get picked up by a parent?" She shook her head no

"Good I'll take you home"

"O-oh t-that's n-not n-necess-ary"

"Baby I don't like repeating myself, I have to take home Starr and Nessa anyways I'll take you too" she slowly nodded her head giving me and the guys a tiny wave and walking away with the girls.

Turning around walking straight into the office avoiding the guys knowing what's coming.

"Don't start we have stuff to get done."

Walking straight pass the receptionist into the open door office o look at the name tag on the desk. Mr.
Smith.

"I'm Adrian Black, you spoke to my father I presume? Here's the contract"
