"Just stop your crying. Have the time of your life. Breaking through the atmosphere. And things are pretty good from here. Remember, everything will be alright. We can meet again somewhere. Somewhere far away from here ."
I stared out my window, tears streaming down my face with doubt in my mind. What is real? I can't find myself in these trees or in anything I do. I try to make it right. I just can't stop crying, I have to get away from here. I need an escape, I need someone. I need- *CRASH*.
I shot my head up and looked towards my door. I slowly got up and peered out of my bedroom. There on the ground is a broken beer bottle, here we go again. "JAYDEN YOU LITTLE SHIT! NEVER TALK TO ME LIKE THAT AGAIN! YOU OWN NOTHING YOU UNGRATEFUL BRAT." My father spat. I slowly made my way down to the kitchen and saw my brother Jayden in the corner of the room, tears threatening to spill. My father toward over him, a beer in one hand and his other hand looking like he's about to swing. "YOU THINK YOU CAN GET PAST ME TAKING MY MONEY?!". Jayden looked in my direction with fear in his eyes. I knew what he did. We did it growing up, he needed the money. "D-d-dad I'm sorry. Please just.. let me go. I'll pay you back!". My brother pleaded.
He's been through so much at only the age of 12. Being picked on by our dad everytime he was in his drunken state. He hasn't had much of a mom besides me, our mom walked out on us when I was 10 and my brother was 5 turning 6. He looked most like our mom and that's why our dad went after him. He always did as he was told and still got handed a beating.
"SHUT UP!" My dad yelled and with that he hit my brother across the face. I stood there for a moment taking in the scene before me. My dad rose his fist for another swing but I quickly ran over an grabbed him. He fell because of his drunken state. I grabbed my brother and fled to my room quickly locking the door.
My brother hugged my waist, "A-a-acacia I was so scared! He hit me really hard this time! What am I going to do. What will I do at school?! No one else's dad hits them! I'm fucking done with this bullshit!" He sobbed getting angry. I brushed back his shaggy light brown hair with my fingers as he cried into me. "Shhhhhh bubby it's all going to be okay. I'm here now. I will keep you safe.". I tried to sooth him. His breathing became more steady. I looked at the time on my phone.
3 AM
"Shit" I mumbled. We had school tomorrow. I guided my brother over to my bed. I decided to let him sleep in my bed with me, I didn't want him getting hurt anymore. As my brother drifted asleep I got up to check on my dad. Yes, he's a complete asshole; but I love him, I can't help being a daddy's girl. I walked out to the living room and he was fast asleep on the chair. I laid a blanket over him and kissed him on the forehead. I just wish he'd go back to his normal self.
I drifted off to sleep only for my alarm to go off 2 hours later...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I rolled out of bed while my brother was still asleep and went into the bathroom and jumped in the shower. My thoughts were racing around the day ahead. Would I see HIM?
I quickly got out and brushed my teeth and my long dark brown hair. I walked into my room and my brother had left. I locked the door and put on a tan cropped top and some ripped black skinnies. I paired them with some black booties and my blue flannel that has 'idiot' written on the back of it. Then I winged my eyeliner and but on some fake eyelashes to make my hazel eyes pop. Then a muave matte lip stick.
I grabbed my bag and my cellphone and made my way to the kitchen.
6:45 am
FUCK I"M GOING TO BE LATE
I grabbed an apple and woke my dad up to get ready for work and headed to school.
I walked into the crowded hallway and made my way to my two best friends that I could find in Seattle. Eryn and Caitlan, they were amazing friends I could trust them with anything. We like to go out together a lot. Distraction for everyone I guess.
I approached them and Eryn waved, "Hey Eryn, Caitlan. And any other bitch I should address." I said with a wink.
"Oh my god you wouldn't even believe what we're doing tonight!" Eryn squealed.
" We are going to Marcus Parsons party tonight at his pent house! It's exclusive, but everyone is going to be there!" Caitlan exclaimed.
" Marcus Parsons... the guy on the baseball team. Do you guys think Kai Letman is going to be there? You know 'cause they're on the same team and friends I think?" I asked in a hurry.
"Oh girl come on you know he's out of your reach. What ever "fling" you guys had last summer doesn't matter anymore. Just forget him! We'll find you a cute guy tonight. Promise!" Eryn crossed her heart.
"Yeah I guess. So Caitlan your house 7? To get ready?" I asked, with worry that they would ask to come to my place first. Wasn't the best idea last time.
"Yeah for sure. Bring something sexy who knows you might impress little mr. baseball, kissing Estrella States over there. Man, I don't even get why they are together. She's slept with like half the team. He's so lost, and clueless." Caitlan said being blunt as hell.
I looked over at Kai and sadness remained. He was kissing some slut like it was nothing. I knew him better than that. I just wish he notice me. I looked up from the ground and locked eyes with him. There was something in those eyes I felt like only I could get.
I just am never good enough am I? He'll see tonight just what he's missing out on.
The bell rang and we made our separate ways.
