Amelia's POV
"Hey baby girl" I hear from behind me as I feel my arm being grabbed. The person turns me around and pins me against the wall. Oh lord. Here we go.
Oliver Garcia. Very loved at our school. He is actually having a thing with Grace, but he always messes with me. He threatened me, telling me that he would make sure everyone I cared about was dead. I couldn't risk that. over the past months thing started to become worse. He's touched me places that made me uncomfortable after telling him to stop. He hits me, but I just have to put foundation over it and pretend like nothing ever happend. I can't risk my family to be in danger.
I felt my breathing becoming uneven and tried to squiggle wrist out if his hands from where he had pinned me against the wall. He slaps me and I gasp in pain at how hard it was. I let my head fall. At this point, I can't do anything. I have to just... let it happen.
"Did you f*****g tell her about us?!" He yelled right in my face with anger in his eyes and face.
"What?! No Of course not! I would never" I said in shock that he would even think that. Is he drunk?
"You f*****g b***h!" He yells while lifting up his fist but before it could connect to my face, he cupped his hand over my mouth "Make a damn peep and you will be in much more trouble then you are now" he says, making a shiver go down my spine.
"I'm sorry I was really hungry! I just had a chicken sandwich, fries and strawberry icecream." I heard from a distance. Oh no. If someone catches me in this position, Oliver will literally make my life more if a living hell then he already does. Everything will just get 10x as bad.
I stayed quiet. Trying to to even quiet down my breathing until I heard the voice go away, but whoever that was talking in the phone was taking so long. I really just wish they would just hurry up. I'm standing here pinned up against a brick wall, my mouth covered but trying to breath, with Oliver's eyes burning into me. I can't keep doing this for long.
"Please dad no! I promise I won't do it again! I'm sorry for taking any food. I just haven't ate in a week and I couldn't find anything from library. Please dad! I beg you! I'm sorry!" I hear the person's voice shake over the phone. I guess I'm not the only one in trouble. My heart is breaking for that girl. She hasn't eaten in a week? Why? Is she not allowed? Does she starve herself? Why is she begging her dad for forgiveness? Is he mad at her for eaten? So many questions filled my head that I forgot Oliver still had me in this position.
"Yes sir! I'm coming home right now!" I hear her say and then it got quiet so I assume she hung up, then I hear her walk away. I feel so bad for this person. Even though I yet to know her.
"Give me money" I hear then realized once again that Oliver was Infront if me
"Wha- wait why?" I asked
"Don't f*****g ask questions. Just do it or get beat. You choose" he says with his grip getting way too tight for me to deal with, so I gave in and gave him money. He left after that leaving me here alone. There was so much going through my brain. How do I get help if I can't tell someone about him? What would Grace do when she finds out I kept it from him? What if I can't give him what he wants and he hurts my family? With all these thoughts in my head. My mind still wandered back to what I heard from the distance. How just hearing it broke my heart. Imagine what she has to go through. I wonder if I know her.
Luna's Pov
I step up the steps and stare at the door, feeling my whole body start to shake. I reach for the door handle then ammediately jerk my hand back. I can't do this! I want to just run away! Avoid all my problems, but I can't! They always find a way to make my life miserable. All I could think was what was going to happen. I just stand there lost in my thoughts. After a while I open the door and look inside but see darkness. No one else in the room. I step in and quietly close the door. That's weird. I sneak up to my room, tiptoeing so the stairs wouldn't make any sounds. I open the door but jump to what I saw.
"Okay, let's make a deal" My sister said sitting in my bed
"W-What" I try to say. Something is off.
"As you can tell. Mom and dad are asleep. Why? Because I told them not to do anything to you. So wanna hear the deal?" She asks. Oh no, nothing that she ever does is good.
"Um yeah sure" I say nervously
"You are in the same class as the CPG's right?" She asks walking closer. The CPG's are also know as the Cool Popular Girls. As you already know, the "leader" is Grace and my sister has always wanted to be her friend.
"Yes" I say
"So... here's the deal dear sister. You talk to them for me and I make sure mom and dad stay away from you. You get food. Get good clothes. Everything. Just as long as I'm one if them by the end of this month" She says calmly and collected
"What?!" I start to panic. They hate me! I can't do that!
"I'd you deny it there will be consequences!" She says getting more angry at my stubborn less even though I didn't even say no yet
I gasped a little bit at her raise of voice.
"What do you mean?" I say, not wanting her to actually answer
She holds up a book. A book that looks very familiar. That's when I realized.
My Journal!
I go to try to reach for it but she scoots over and I fall on the floor. She looks down and rolls her eyes.
"You either do what I just said or I will post this everywhere. I will post it on social media. Print papers out and put them all over town and school. It's you're choice" She says
"I- I can't!" I stutter out. I feel so weak. I never feel this nervous, because I'm used to this cruel world by now, but that journal has very personal things in it.
"Hm, okay then" I see her pulling out here phone
"No! No! Okay Okay fine! I'll do it! I'll do it!" I say jumping back up and grabbing my journal
"Good girl" She smiles, then pats me on my head and walks out.
