Abused and Mated?

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Allison's POV

I woke up to the sun shining in through my window. Stupid good for nothing damn curtains... I thought to myself. I'm actually surprised even though it is a Saturday I always get woken up with a bucket of cold water. Change of heart, maybe? No, I doubt that.

Reluctantly, I got up and went to my washroom. My room got downgraded when my mum died. Don't get me wrong it is still fairly big but, not as big as my master bedroom with my walk in closet. Now, I have a simple teenagers room with a simple closet big enough to hold my clothes. Well, actually way bigger because my dad will not let me out of the house in anything I used to wear. Now, it is only kaykes and a plain shirt. So, what I do is hide all my other clothes in my washroom closet or in other spots in my room and pick up an outfit and shoes and put them in my bag and change at school when I get there and before I leave. Easy right? No.

I started up the shower and peeled off my clothes before getting in. I usually use my showers for a way to think but after almost getting caught with Sapphire yesterday my nerves were a wreck. So, lets just say I tried to relax this time. Without, any improvement.

I got out after about ten minutes clean and refreshed, picked out my kaykes and a navy blue shirt. I got dressed picked out another set of clothes and put them in my bag. I would change at Sapphire's house.

On the days I was supposed to be working I wasn't allowed out of the house other than school. But today, I wasn't working so my dad could care less about where I was going but my brother being over protective thinks i'm going to a guy's house so I start with the interogation when I step out of my room.

"Ali where're you going?" Liam asked with a stern father-like look on his face. In other words, I barely hid my smile.

"Relax. I'm just going over to Sapphire's house for a little while. Okay?" I said with an amused smile on my face which probably didn't help my case but come on, I couldn't help it.

"Fine, you know curfew though." He said with a slightly doubtful look on his face like he didn't belive I was going over there. " Not even gonna be that long, Liam."

About three minutes later I arrived at her house - only three because she's in the pack therefore, she's on pack territory- in my green car. I still had it because it was paid off and everything but, I could only use it on workdays to get to and from school and the store if need be but any other day my dad could care less. As long as I paid for the gas. Typical, not really, considering I'm only seventeen and I don't get paid for doing stuff around the house.

I knocked on the door and Sapphire answered it. " Finally escaped did you?" She said with a smile playing on her lips.

"Yup," I said popping the p, "But not without interogation from my brother." I said also with a smile on my lips.

"Now, can I come in. You know I only have so long because I have to go to the store later." Again, as I said before Sapphire was the only one that knew of my father's abusive ways but, she was not allowed to tell anyone. Zippo. Zilch. And that was that because if my dad found out it was her - which wouldn't be hard because she was the only person that knew - my dad would find a way to end her life once he got out. If he got out. Which he will or either find a way to be pleaded innocent.

We're pretty helpless.

"What." She said on a groan. "You're off today. It's Saturday for Heaven's sakes!" She said yelling but not yelling at the same time. Loudly.

"I know but, you still know I have to cook dinner and I wasn't able to get to the store yesterday so i'm stuck doing it today or get beat either one?" I said as more of a question. She really wanted me to stay but, I just couldn't stay for as long as she wanted me to because I would get beaten and if my brother stepped in - which he would - he would also have consequences. But worse because he stepped in. Much worse.

"Look Saphy, i'll come over again tomorrow and I can stay 'til six okay?" I said trying to compromise. "Fine," She said pausing to groan, ",but if you don'tbe prepared to hear from me after school on Monday. Okay?" I gulped. I knew if I didn't I would never hear the end of it. Let's just say that I never get on her badside. Or anyone for that matter.

************************************************************************ An hour later ( 2:30 pm)

We had talked and talked. She told me about everything from boys to what she was wearing to prom. A month from now.

"Okay Saphy, you know I love you but," I said starting in a sweet voice, "SHUT UP!!!" I said a little agrivated. I had been listening to her for the last forty-five minutes talk about her freaking dress. It was a teal/ sea blue green color with a half and half skirt on the bottom with the other half black and was straight and started flowing around the waist. (Pic on side) Perfect with her sea green eyes only a shade or two lighter than that of the dress.

"Okay, sorry. Wanna dance?" Saphy asked excitedly. I only nodded in response. "Okay, let's go look at the cds." She answered. There's one thing you should know about Sapphire. She loved to dance.

We looked and I found my favourite. "Sapphire, what about the cd with all our favourites on it Ali and Saphy's Faves?" I asked quoting the title. We made this last yearwith all of our favourites from Taylor Swift and Nickleback. The thing about me you should know. I love music by Nickelback and Taylor Swift. Nothing compares.

"Sure." She put the cd in and my favourite song started playing automatically. Far Away by Nickleback.

"This time, this place misused mistakes. To long to late. Who was I to make you wait..." The song started out with, Sapphire dancing a ballet and me singing the lyrics.

" 'Cuz I love you, I have loved you all along so keep breathing cuz i'm not leaving you anymore."

"Hold onto me and never let me go." When the song got done it was nearly three o'clock. Had we been that lost in the music?

The next song that came on was Last Kiss by Taylor Swift. This song was my third favourte by her.

"I still remember the look on your face, lit through the darkness at one fifty eight. The words that you whisper for just us to know. You told me you love me so why did you go away?"

" Oooh oh." We continued singing.

"I do recall, now, the smell of the rain. Fresh on the pavement, I ran off the plane. That July ninth the beat of your heart, it jumps through your shirt. I can still feel your arms. Now I go, sit on the floor wearing your clothes, all that I know is I don't know, how to be something you miss." We continued singing and dancing without a care in the world right now.

"Never thought we'd have a last... kiss. Never imagined we'd end... like... thi-i-i-s. (A/N: words may be slightly altered)

When the song ended it was close to time for me to go. Only, I didn't want to go. Ha, the question is who would want to go shopping for an abusive father/pack then, go home cook for them, wait until they have eaten before I can even eat the little left over- if there is any- then get beaten and go to bed? Not anyone I know.

********* One exhausting shopping trip and a cooked dinner later *********

After setting the table, and placing all of the food on the table, I went and huddled in my corner in the very back of the kitchen and sat on the counter until the faint starting sound of footsteps combined with talking started. Normally, any other regular weres or shapeshifters would have been able to hear them all the way at the top of the sixth floor (the very top floor) but as I am so weak and having never shifted yet not helping the matter, I can only hear them at the bottom of the third or top of the second floor.

When they got to the dining room I realized I had made a huge mistake.
