Thomas POV.

I walk home I'm dreading what's going to happen when I get back. Excluded. But I had to do it. For Liam. I had no choice.

When I got home I slowly pushed the door open and tried to sneak my way up to my room.

I was on the bottom stair and it just had to creak.

"Thomas!" The shrill angry voice of my mother rang out.

I turn around and come into the living room.

Both my parents are in there. Mum is on the couch. Dad is standing with a bottle.

"What's this I hear about you being excluded?" She asks a false sweetness in her voice.

I don't speak I don't even look at her.

"Look at me when I'm speaking to you!" She snaps.

I look up still refusing to speak.

"Well?" She was getting more annoyed I stayed silent.

"Maybe this will loosen your tounge." She said.

My dad came over and smashed the bottle over head I fell to the ground he began stomping on me.

"STOP!" I screamed pleading with him.

"What did you just say to me boy?"

He spat on me. Then he grabbed me by the hair and dragged me to the door.

He threw me out.

"Don't come back until you have fixed yourself." He yelled.

I was all alone.

I went to the only place I could think of.

Liams house. It's late he might be asleep but he is my only option.

I knock on the door.

"Thomas it's 1 in the morning what-

He looked up at my face he looked over the bruises and cuts the blood still trickling.

"Come in." He said. He pulled me into the house and took me to his room.

He had me sit on the bed. He was rooting through draws. He came back with wipes he was cleaning my wounds. He put plasters on them after.

We sat in silence.

"What-what happened?"

"Parents." Was all I could say before I started crying.

"What?" He started.

I hugged him I just hugged him.

"Please let me stay here I have nowhere else to go."

He wrapped his arms around me.

"You can stay here as long as you like."

"Thank you." Was all I could say before I started crying.
