Well we know she cannot hold her liquor. That and she's a lightweight. To be fair she’s like 90 pounds. After about a half bottle she was nearly wasted so I finished the bottle by myself, she's one of those happy touchy type drunks which I don’t mind but it pisses me off a little. I don’t like people hanging on me. (Or off of me in her place.)

Physical contact isn’t really me, unless I want to touch you please don’t touch me. But with her I didn’t really mind, it's not like I can be rude to her. Especially if I actually want to get my way.

Sunlight is barely peeking through the curtains, but it's blinding. I’m sitting on the edge of the bed, her blonde hair is a bit matted I guessed from sleeping, but she was still sort of good-looking. She started to stir as I was putting my shoes on and getting up.

“Good morning, Love,” I say in a hushed voice, to be more exact it’s not quite a whisper but not quite speaking in a normal voice. Her vivid almost feline green eyes fluttered open. She wasn’t my type but her eyes could catch any man off guard and cause them to stare.

“Good morning…” She said with a slight look of disgust. Looking around and the sun hitting her a little fast.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHIY81v4IZ
“Love, what's wrong?” I asked her,
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrCMe2GY4W
“I’m in your room…” the tone of her voice was kind of sad. I rolled my eyes and my tone changed, the disgust on her face and the way she said it bothered me. I took a deep breath before speaking.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0S9G0jjT3J
“Yes, you are, and I slept on the floor if that worried you too.” I sat back down on the bed and took her hand in mine.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAyMvLsjZJ
“ Don’t touch me!” She practically yelled at me as she yanked her hand away.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCtVCHnApT
“ I really should have asked first. But you were doing the same damn thing to me last night” I was a bit pissed and didn’t care if I sounded rude anymore. I had been nice to her for the last time.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsrqf0guKZ
She looked down. “I’m sorry…” she whispers.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrk1nDqLf4
“You really should be, love. You don’t know what I could do to a fragile girl like you.” I say getting close to her. Not that I would do anything to her, it's just an intimidation tactic. I brush her hair out of her face and let my lips brush against her cheek as I start to speak.

“Don’t fucking touch me, if I’m not allowed to touch you.” I feel her shiver and smile before walking out and leaving the door open. Luke’s standing outside his bedroom door as I walk out of my room “Your whore is in there by the way Lucas, she didn’t run away well you slept.” I walk downstairs and fix a cup of coffee. Slamming to cupboards as I got everything I needed.

Why was he acting like that? I didn’t mean to yell at him like that, I just was caught off guard. I heard him call me a whore as he walked out but I’m not. I need to confront him, tell him that I know he’s trying to play me like one of the cheerleaders at school. I went into Luke’s room and grabbed my bag. I headed outside and saw him leaning against his car with a cigarette in his mouth. “I know what you’re trying to do Blake I’m not stupid. You may think I am but I’m not.”
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgyIcUrTWL
“Love, I never said you were stupid nothing even close to that. I just said you were a whore, and maybe someday soon you’ll be my whore.” I cleared my throat trying to ignore what he said. He has that smirk on his face, and I can’t tell if it's what he said that makes my heart damn near skip a beat or if it was the way he looked up and down my body. He lit the cigarette as I was walking away from him.

“This won’t work on me by the way,” I say just loud enough for him to hear. I start to walk home, it's a long walk but I don’t really mind.

Isn’t it messed up how you can love someone but they absolutely don’t care about you? I’m not talking about Blake or Luke or anybody like that. I’m talking about my parents, yes they put on a show and pretend everything's fine when they think I’m paying attention but as soon as I’m not they start fighting again.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RLWwUDq52
Last night the reason I went over there was they were fighting again, and this time it was about me. I get fighting about who gets me when they divorce but over how much they know about me. I’m sorry mom and dad but guess what you don’t know ANYTHING about me.

As I reached the door this morning, I could already hear them. My mother has never been quiet in any situation, especially when arguing with my father.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPUyPiFc2t
“YOU LOW LIFE YOU REALLY THINK I’M GOING TO LET YOU TAKE MY DAUGHTER!” Thank God for a first-floor bedroom with a window that doesn’t lock. I slid the window up and climbed into it. I was just gonna grab clothes for the next two nights. I decided to text Luke to kind of okay that I could stay over again.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNlPPeYveL
Kai: Hey my birth giver and dumbass are at it again. Can I come over and stay again?
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIB4utUEhk8
Luke: Of course you can, I don’t mind. But I have a basketball game tonight so you’ll be all by yourself.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkGPJIaDO9
Kai: Fuck, I forgot to buy tickets… Sorry, bro.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3ZOSw12JC
Luke: It’s fine.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfadKtOjMuL
I grab my clothes which if we’re being honest isn’t a lot. Most of them are not in good shape. I climb back out the window and hear sobs coming from the living room just before stepping out. I took a deep breath, making a call I could regret for the rest of my life.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8xSYeDsgI
“911 where’s your emergency?”
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpFZoIlF2R
“Um, I would like to report a domestic disturbance at 190 Maylean street. And please keep this call anonymous.”
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5Hz5G0kfD
“Okay, we’re sending officers now, they should be there in about five to ten minutes.”
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMakdB4BhZ5
I hung up and started to walk back over. I took a long way around, which if I’m walking slowly should take about three hours. It goes through the city which I like doing because it's pretty and I don’t go very often.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpSGkVKI9H
My normal route is about 15 minutes but I didn’t want to go that way, I never want to go that way again. Why you might ask is because there are too many memories. Way too many, my mom used to walk down to Luke’s house when she wasn’t too busy. So did dad but not anymore, that way is where they decide whilst taking me home that they wanted a divorce. I received a text
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHN8LbKRCfs
Luke: You won’t be entirely alone.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOVKUHOIrj
Kai: Yay!.... Bloody hell
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOreyOMf5Dk
Luke: I thought you would be happy cuz my house is scary remember lol
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEf3dXOR2w
Kai: yea I mean I am happy but that means I have to deal with him.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhSJOcAcQg
I turn off alerts for Luke's messages and put in my ear buds. Smoke and drivewas playing originally. I skipped it unlike what I usually do. I very rarely skip through my playlist, but today I just wasn’t feeling half the songs until Kitchen Lights started playing. I turned the volume all the way up.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoR7tgUUZ6
My phone is about to die when I reach their house. Luke's loading stuff into his car. “Hey,” He said “I’ve been texting you.”
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISUHCuw6gA
“Okay, I muted my phone.” I am about to break down. He can tell I know he can.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKQ0co2PYr
He looked at me, his happy expression fading, “He hit her, didn't he?” I shrug tears falling down my face.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabdFcU7r9F
“I don’t know but I guess I’ll find out if he’s in jail. I called the cops before I left.” He hugs me and wipes the tears from my eyes.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym6ZRPeOTM
“I really wish I could help more but I have to leave now.” I smile, “It’s fine, just win for me.”
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrarJAtZN2
I smile at him and walk into the house. It's only five in the afternoon, but I can barely stay awake. I’m sitting on the couch, I’m half asleep. “Hey! Wake up.”
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiAd813qD0
I was startled by a hand touching my shoulder. “Sorry,” it's Blake I probably should never have said sorry.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpb09ghxdK
“Stop apologizing. That’s all you ever do.” I look down, almost cowering.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5ICAXPhjd
“Sor- Okay.”
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv1sLMG0Pn
I started to say sorry again, but decided not to. I get up and start to walk away. He starts to grab my arm, “Look I’m sorry about what I called you earlier today, it was way out of line.” I laughed
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrsjtDpHol
“Really you saying sorry….. Since when.” I snapped being ruder than I meant to.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA04VArxrIr
“Why can’t I apologize?” He asked.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaEduMc4HS
“I didn’t say that you couldn’t apologize, I just said that because you typically don’t apologize.” He nods as I speak.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEn8TxzPAp
He avoids eye contact. “I know. It’s just that it was so out of line, you don’t slut shame anybody.” I bit my lip trying not to yell. Bullshit.
403Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8dCSPpRBF
I’m not used to him apologizing, not even that one time when he fought this girl’s boyfriend for saying something that was just a joke. And she even said that he was joking.
