I woke up in my bed. It was pitch black dark. I felt dizzy and weak. Suddenly I remember everything that happened.

My dad has never beaten me like that before... and I've been beaten pretty badly.

I force myself up and try to find my way to a light. I find my lamp and turn it on. I look around for my phone and find it under my pillow.

I had 4 missed calls and 3 messages from Chandler, 2 missed calls and 1 message from Veronica.

' Chandler 😘❤️☺️ '
3:15 p.m
Hay gorgeous 💞
3:30 p.m
Um hello ?
4:00
Beth I called you four times already. Why aren't you answering. I'm starting to get worried.

I couldn't tell Chandler what my dad did. I just met him. I don't know if I can trust him yet. So I'll just make up a lie.

To Chandler:
Oh hey. Yeah sorry I fell asleep after school. Just woke up lol ttyl .

' Veronica 💞 '
4:03 p.m
I called you twice hoe. Answer me !

I'll call Veronica tomorrow. She'll be okay.

I sat my phone down and walked to the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror. My dad was right ... I'm a worthless piece of shit.

I looked around the bathroom for my blade. It was in the bathtub, that was the last place I cut at.

I took the blade and put it against my wrist. Before I could make a mark ... I heard my phone going off.

" FUCK ! " I whisper yelled.

I throw the blade back in the bathtub and walk into my room.

Chandler was calling me...

" hello " I said acting like I just woke up. " oh sorry did I wake you? " he asks. " yeah but it's fine " I say not trying to hurt his feelings. " okay well can I come over ?" He asks me.

Bitch tf ? I just met you. Fym ?

" oh .. um.... I-I don't care. I guess " I say. " okay be there in a few. "
He hangs up.

How does this nigga even know where I live ?!

10 minutes later a pebble was thrown at my window. I walk over to the window and see Chandler looking up at me. His eyes are so amazing it's not even funny.

Chandlers POV ~

I threw a little pebble at Beth's window. I was going to throw a little rock but I didn't want to bust the shit out of the window so I stuck with the pebble.

A few seconds later her little head pops up. Wow she's so fucking beautiful. No, Chandler stop. You just met her.

I climb up a tree and step on the ledge of the window.
This feels like some Disney princess shit.

She opens the window and let's me in. " Hey " I say smiling. " Hi " I can tell she's nervous.

" Why'd you want to come over again? " she asks curious.

I wanted to come see you're beautiful ass , kiss you , tell you how much I'm in love with you , ask you out , fuck the shit out of you , and spend the rest of my life with you .

" Oh I just got bored at home. And I was worried about you " I say instead of all that other stuff.

" Well I'm okay , just so you know " she smiles. Oh how much I love her smile.

" You have the most beautiful smile I've ever seen .. " I say .

She blushes. " Thanks "

I smile at her . I can't take this shit anymore. I have to make my move.

I move closer to her. I'm scared as shit right now.

" Bethany ... I have to ask you something " I say nervously .

" And that is ...?" She asks

" Look I know we just met but I feel like I've known you my whole life ... I was just wondering if you .... "
