I heard the front door slam open and heavy footsteps. "Teresa!" I heard my Dad's drunken anger towards my mom. "Y-yes dear?" I could hear the fear in my mother's voice. "Why isn't dinner ready?" Dad had a sickening sweet tone in his voice that screamed danger."well, I-I was just about to put it on and-" I heard the sound of a fist slamming against a table. "Don't you "I was just about to" me!!" " I will END you woman!!" I heard a loud slap and then loud sobbing. All I heard after that was crashing,hitting,slamming,yelling,and crying. I wanted to save her so bad! But I couldn't do anything. A tear ran down my cheek,I laid don on my bed and cried,cried until I fell asleep...I didn't dream. I stopped dreaming a long time ago. I woke up to my alarm going off. I sat on the edge of my bed.My head was pounding from crying.I looked around,my room was dark, my door still had the dresser in front of it.I got up and moved it.Then I paused,I put my ear up to the door,listening to see if anyone was home.Nothing. I cautiously unlocked the door and turned the knob until it clicked.I pulled it open,The house was dark and empty. I couldn't have been more relieved. I went back in my room to get ready for school,I took off my shirt to reveal bruises upon bruises and cuts upon cuts. Some were made by my Dad...the rest were made by me.I put my favorite green sweater on and brushed my hair.I walked into the kitchen to see if there was any food I could sneak and eat. Dad didn't like it when I ate. He thought I didn't deserve food. I only was able to eat at the cafeteria. On the weekends I starved. I opened the fridge and saw nothing but a few bottles of beer. "No food for me today I guess.." I closed the fridge and grabbed my bag. I walked out the door and began my path to go to school. while walking I saw Joshua and Derek walking together.I waited for them to glance in my direction and then I motioned towards them. "Jeremy!" they yelled and ran towards me. "hey, man!" Derek rustled my hair. "H-hey!" "Stahp it!" I giggled."So how's sweater boy today,huh?" Joshua was that kind of person who acted cool around his friends but was actually really dorky. "Im doing fine I guess." I shrugged. "Well,today's another day!" Derek said sounding positive. "He's right Jere!""Maybe today will be a good day and lunch lady Belinda will give you an extra tater tot!" Joshua and Derek burst out laughing. I smile. "Yeah, maybe she will!"After a little while we reached the front entrance. "Welp, welcome to satan's asshole!" "A.K.A Anne-drew highschool." Derek said rolling his eyes. We walked through the heavy doors and into the lobby."only three more years in this Hell hole." Derek sounded put out byb the fact he was even here. I walked into the hallway leaving Derek and Joshua back behind, they were still standing there joking around. I needed to get to class though. Mrs.Chickennog would kill me if I was late. I hurried to my locker and put my bag up after taking my books and folders out. I bundled them up in my arms and closed my locker. I was confident I was going to make it in time until..I was slammed up against a locker. "Hey gay boy."
