Home Is Where The Beatings Are

            Laurens' POV
  I felt bad about lying to Alex about where I came from. My mother actually died and I'm forced to live with my abusive father. His name is Henry. A few years ago, I came out to him. That's when he started giving beatings.

I had slashes all across my stomach from the belt he uses to hit me. Alex tried to take my shirt off right before Herc came but I stopped him.

I haven't told anyone about my father. If I tell Alex he won't ever want to talk to me because he will think my dad's would hurt him and he wouldn't ever talk to me and...

I realized tears were running down my face when I heard a familiar voice screech my name from the living room.

"JOHN LAURENS. GET YOUR SORRY, PATHETIC GAY ASS OVER HERE AND EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT IS ON YOUR PHONE."

Shit. That was my dad. Wait- did he just say what was on my phone? I jumped up and sprinted over to my father holding up my phone.

I could practically SEE smoke coming out of his ears.

"What. The. Hell. Is. This?" He said it so calmly it scared me. I looked up from my shoes which had suddenly became quite interesting.

"A phone father." I said,holding in a laugh. "Don't be smart with me young man." He slapped me across the face. "Who is Alex, and why did he send you this?" By now, my dad was fuming.

"Umm Alex is my friend from school and he sent that to me on accident I assume." The text message said: I can't wait to see you again babe😉😘
"He has a-a uhh a girlfriend and so I bet he accidentally sent it to me."

My father stared me down for about 20 seconds. I looked him right in the eye until he believed me. "Alright but if I find anymore flirtatious texts from this Alec kid-"
"Alex.." I interrupted
"Whatever. This Alex kid, I will beat your ass.

I knew he wasn't kidding. Once, I sent a inappropriate message to a secret boyfriend in 8th grade, my father found it, and I still have the scars.

A/N UGHHHHHHHHHH I HAVE HAD SUCH BAD WRITERS BLOCK AND I KNOW NO ONE CARES BUT UGH IM SORRY
