age 16

"Please stop. Please. Please please stop" I whimper and struggle to say as Charlie slaps me again.
"I told you to stop begging!" He yells as he punches me in the stomach.

I collapse to the ground and stop trying to get him to stop, he kicks me more as I'm lying on the floor.

After a while I either black out or he leaves. I can't remember.
I pick my self up and try to wipe my tear stained cheeks. I walk over to the kitchen to grab a drink. I notice the time in the clock which reads, 2:45am

I sigh, not knowing where Charlie is, nor wanting to know.

I hate him so much.

I contemplate picking up my phone, but I decide to do it anyways. I ring Louis since I know he barely sleeps now.

L- hey madds, what's up?
M- not much, just couldn't sleep. Wanted to see how you were,

He pauses, I wait as I think he's just tired, but the pause seems too long, I hear a sigh

L-he did it again didn't he?

Now it's my time to pause, what do I say to that?

M-what do you mean?
L-madds... it's nearly 3am, your saying you can't sleep. Do you want me to come over? Are you safe at the moment?
M-no no! It's fine really. I. I just wanted to make sure you were ok
L-I'll be fine when I know your ok madds.
M- it's a good thing I'm ok then
L- I just hope he'll stop soon Maddie. It'll all be ok
M-I know, I'll be fine

He chat for a few more minutes before we end the call.
I walk over to my room and lie down on the bed, I just want this all to be over with.

But I still might love him.
