Lost

Chapter 4

Kerri's p.o.v

Giovanna's mum dropped me off home , I said goodbye and got out my keys and unlocked my door.

I dumped down my stuff on the sofa and slumped down next to it. I sighed and grabbed the TV remote and put on the music channel.

Little Mix were playing on my TV screen.

'Hey getcha back off the wall don't you get comfortable , looking so hot I think that I might fall , feeling like its my birthday , like Christmas day came early ..'

I sang as I grabbed my laptop and logged onto tumblr and instagram. I found 4 new people had followed me so I followed back , posted a few pictures and logged off , now bored.

I lay on the sofa and flicked through the channel trying to find a decent film. I found Hangover and ran to make popcorn to eat while I watched it.

I returned and watched the film.

********

I was awoken by the sound of the front door slamming , I groggily sat up , popcorn all over my lap. My brother entered the room and took in the scene.

His lip was busted and bleeding and his eye was bruised.

" Jesus Kerri what r u still doing up and why is there popcorn everywhere" Jake asked slurring his words slightly. He was drunk.

I looked at my popcorn littered lap and shrugged "I was watch TV and eating popcorn and I fell asleep." I whispered.

I hated it when Jake's drunk , he gets angry and violent. Jake's never hit me or anything like that , he just throws things , yells and swears.

It scares me though .

He gets drunk most nights , since our parents died 5 years ago.

"whatever just clean up the fucking mess" he yells and walk's to the kitchen. I clean up the popcorn and walk to the kitchen and place the bowl on the side.

Jake is pouring a drink , Tequila. He gulps it down and pours another and gulps that one too. He pours another and turn to look at me.

"what are you staring at Kerri?!" he taunts.

" nothing" I mumble and begin to wipe down the sides.

Jake continues to glug down Tequila , his lip still bleeding badly.

"Jakey what happened to your lip and eye?" I question him.

"nothing mind your own buisness Ker , I'm fine!" he barked back

"Jake for god sake you come home drunk with a busted lip and black eye and you expect me to think your fine!" I half yell feeling angry.

Jake threw his glass at the wall and turned to glare at me.

"Kerri I said I am fucking fine , now leave me the fuck alone" he yelled slamming his fist into the fridge door.

I ran to my room , tears brimming. I slammed my door and buried myself under my covers as I heard Jake yelling down stairs and the loud crashes as he break , throws and punches things.

I cried myself to sleep , hoping when I awoke in the morning Jake would be in a better mood.
