1324 Words
(Amelia) I was feeling a bit down when I went woke up the next day. The only thing I was looking forward to were my friends and Liam. Yesterday when we had dinner together as a family dad made me cry so hard before he took my phone away once again and told me I was dumb if I thought he would give it back to me. He even went as far as grounding me just for texting my friends at the dinner table. Well I wasn’t the only one that was miserable in this house and couldn’t wait to go to school so I could get some time away, Caleb and mason were depressed as well because he took their video games away and scolded them rather harshly. Aunt Sarah tried talking some sense into dad but nothing was working, not even the threats he received from Jessie who wanted to kill him for treating us poorly. Something was going on between dad and mom and I didn’t know what it was but I do hope they can work it out soon so I can go back to being happy. My once happy home has turned into a nightmare thanks to my father. When dad restricted mom from working with aunt Sarah and mom started to protest he held his hand up which caused a whimper to escape my mouth because I thought he was going to hurt her. Unbeknownst to them, I was the only one who saw the way mason was glaring at dad with so much hatred in his eyes it even scared me as well. How I wish we could go back to the way we were before, with him not ordering mom around and telling her what she can and cannot do. When dad gave us the go ahead to leave the dinner table, I locked myself in my room and cried so hard I couldn’t stop and that’s how mom found me. She was there comforting me which made me feel like s**t because I should be the one to comfort her not the other way around, After a while I fell asleep with a lot on my mind. ****Right now I have a huge headache but I didn’t feel like taking any pain killers since I hated them. I was dragging my feet while getting ready for school. I didn’t care if I was going to be late, I just wasn’t feeling that great. After I got ready, I called out for Caleb and mason to move their asses since we both have the same driver and I couldn’t very much leave them. Once we got downstairs, dad was there waiting for us and he handed me my phone. He didn’t even acknowledge our presence after that, just told us to eat something and go to school. I rolled my eyes but regretted it as pain rushed through my head once more making me wince. “ are you ok mia?” Mason asked and I nodded my head. “ yeah I’m fine, better do what dad’s say before he gets mad.” They both looked at me suspiciously as if they didn’t believe I was ok but shook their heads instead and made their way towards the kitchen. At school I felt a little better to be away from that toxic environment my parents created and smiled a little which was short lived by the angry tone of Liam’s. “ Mia what the hell? I tried calling you, texting you probably over a hundred times and you didn’t reply!?” He shouts and I winced a little which he saw and softened a bit. “ are you alright?” He asked and I nodded my head. “ yeah just a headache but I’ll be fine. As for not answering your calls or texts, dad took away my phone yesterday so that’s why.” I said and he nodded his head and smile. “ I was so worried, gosh I hope that doesn’t ever happen again.” I giggled when he pulled me towards him for a much needed hug which I appreciated a lot. During our hug, Jason and Kayla came running up to us while Kayla started acting like a crazy person. “ s**t Mia we tried calling you yesterday and even texted you and you didn’t answer! we thought you were being kidnapped or worse we thought you were dead!” I flinched a bit from the tone of her voice and Liam glared at her. After I told them what happened, they calmed down a bit and soon we were joined by bran and Sam who both breathed a sigh of relief after seeing me. “ ok let’s hurry and get to class, don’t want to be late.” Liam said and we started moving right away. (Liam) In class I kept glancing at mia just to make sure she was ok. I shook my head and looked down while clenching my fists wishing I could punch some sense into Mia’s father. He grounded her and because of that I won’t be able to take her on that date I wanted to this weekend. He spoiled my plans and for that I hated the guy even more without even meeting him in person. “ you ok?” Bran asked and I sighed and ran my hand through my hair. “ everything just seems to be getting out of control. I finally got the courage to talk to mia and now she’s my girlfriend and all but I feel like something or someone is keeping us apart and I can’t shake the feeling like I’m going to loose her too.” Bran nodded his head in understanding and took a moment before replying. “ sometimes s**t happens. You’re happy one minute and then the next it’s all going down the drain, what I can say is try your best to hold on to your girl, don’t let her out of your sight and don’t let her slip through your fingers and for the love of god make sure she knows she is it for you.” I frowned when I saw him looking at Sam and wondered what that was about but I shook the feeling away, maybe it was nothing and I was getting carried away. “ thanks man.” I chuckled and he looked at me with a raised eyebrow. “ it’s the first time I asked you something and you gave me some pretty good advice, any reason why you became so smart all of a sudden?” His cheeks turned red and my eyes became wide when I realized he was blushing. “ gosh it’s just an advice no need to be so judgy about it.” Bran said defensively and I shook my head and went back to concentrate on what the teacher was saying. What bran said was true, I was going to make sure mia knows she’s mine and no one can stand in the way of that, not even her deadbeat father. She’s someone who should be nurtured, cherished, loved but instead I could see the sadness in her eyes and I hated that a lot. I waned to take her away and show her a good time, at least that’s what I planned on doing until it all went down the drain thanks to that i***t father of hers. I’ll be damn if I let him come between us, there’s no way no way I’m just going to sit back and watch the life drain out of mia so she could walk around like an empty shell. I will fight for her, I will fight for her happiness and if I have to go against Dominic sanders I will, I will show him that not everyone is afraid of him, that there is someone way worse out there apart from him.
