"It's just one night, I promise!" I pleaded.

Uncle Peter shook his head, "Now, Mia.. Where does begging get you in life?" He said, taking his belt off.

"You aren't going anywhere, Missy." He growled.

I sighed, "Uncle Peter, I need just one night of freedom. That's it! I promise!" I begged, putting my hands together.

Uncle Peter looked at me with anger as he slapped me across the face.

"Now WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST SAY ABOUT BEGGING?!" He shouted.

I held onto the left side of my face in pain, feeling tears form in my eyes.

"You know what? Fine." Uncle Peter said.

I gasped, "Really?!" I said.

"Yeah, go on. Get out!" He raised his voice again.

I quickly ran passed him and ran down the stairs towards the front door.

"YOU AREN'T GOING ANYWHERE, UNTIL I AM DONE WITH YOU THOUGH, GIRL!" Uncle Peter shouted.

I gasped, quickly opening the door.

I slammed the door as I ran outside.

The car isn't here yet?! How early am I? Oh my God, Michael hurry!! 

I waited at the end of the driveway, crossing my arms.

I looked behind me, seeing my Uncle run towards me.

I gasped and started running down the middle of the street.

"GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE!" Uncle Peter shouted.

I bit my lip, trying to fight my tears as I ran down the streets.

Suddenly a black car turned the corner, almost hitting me.

I screamed in fright, covering my face as I stopped running.

I heard a car door open, "Mia?" I heard Michael's voice say.

I didn't dare put my hands down, feeling myself shiver.

"Mia, what's going on?" I felt Michael touch my shoulder.

I put my hands down as I turn around, seeing my Uncle still running after me.

I quickly walk past Michael, getting into the car.

Michael stays outside for a moment. Seeing my Uncle, he quickly gets into the car. The driver starts to drive to the restaurant.

"Mia, are you alright?" Michael asked in concern.

I shivered, scooting closer to him.

"Michael, I ran from my Uncle. He said no then he told me to go." I softly said.

"Why was he chasing after you then?" Michael asked.

"I don't know... He said I couldn't leave until he was done with me." I said, my voice cracking.

Michael held onto my tightly, "Did he hurt you?" Michael firmly said.

I shook my head, "No" I lied.

"Good" He said.

"I'll make this night the best." Michael said.

I giggled, "Getting out of the house is already making this the best da---Outing." I said.

Michael smiled, "Good... You look beautiful tonight" 

I blushed.
