Their Expectations

The Party

DAWN POV*** 

    It's been about four weeks, I haven't been able to find Ava. My friends that I've been hanging out with ever since Ava left, want me to go to the party tonight. I don't really want to go but I need a distraction, for a little bit so I think I'm going to the party to find a quick f**k then bounce.

     My old f**k buddy was Lucas, nobody knew about it, we have been doing that little agreement since 8th grade it was going well, no feelings attached. But I ended that s**t quickly when I found out what he did to Ava.

    I text my friends and tell me I'll meet them there at eleven. It's nine so I should probably get ready. I get undressed and hop in the shower, I shave my legs, and my arm pit's, I got waxed a couple days ago. I put my coconut shampoo and scrub my scalp, then I rise it, after I'm done rising the shampoo out, I put conditioner in my hair and get my brush, and brush my hair in the shower because if I don't my hair will become all frizzy. 

    After I finish rising my hair I get out of the shower, and go to my closet and grab my cute black underwear and my white bra, then I grab my skin tight leather jeans, after putting them on I pull out my favorite white v-neck tea. I then grab my black heels. After I finish getting dressed, I decide to leave my hair natural I leave my tight curls loose, before I leave my room. 

    I brush my teeth and put deodorant on and I grab my leather jacket off my bed, and grab my phone and keys and make my way to the front door. Before I could walk out Adam grabbed me. "Where do you think you're going?" he ask. "I'm going to Levi's Party." I say in a duh tone. "No your not Dawn." "Yes I am Adam, you don't have any say in what I do." I try walking out but he grab my keys from my hand.

     "You can't go anywhere without your keys, and I'm not giving them back to you till tomorrow." he smirks as he walks away. I don't know why I exploded but I couldn't help keeping my emotions hidden away for so long I knew I was going to erupt eventually, but I wasn't expecting it to be tonight. "ADAM COME BACK HERE RIGHT NOW AND GIVE ME MY f*****g KEY'S!" He turned around and faced me.

    "No" he said 

    "No? No? huh your not going to give my f*****g keys? do you realize this is the first time i'm leaving house expect going to f*****g school, or searching for Ava? HUH Adam?" he look dumbfounded in works. " Adam do you f*****g realize the only reason she left with him was to save your ass, from going to f*****g jail, she told you not to get involved for a f*****g reason, she wanted to protect you from getting in trouble, but you had to play hero, and save her well guess what? NO YOU DIDN'T BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO f*****g "PROTECT" HER IN YOUR OWN WAY, COSTED HER, HER FREEDOM, HER WILL TO LIVE, HER f*****g LIFE." he was starting to tear up but his face was full of rage.

     "So if you excuse me" I grab my keys from his hands. "I'll be dealing with my pain from not knowing what the hell happened to my best friend, by having a boy pound into until I forget." I walk out the door crying I break down, as soon as I reach my car. 

    I begin to speed off the the only place I'll probably be able to think Clearly, mine and Ava's tree house. My father built the tree house by Manny's dinner so we would be able to get food and come back here. Nobody is able to come in here without a key, and I don't think anyone has found it. I park in Manny's diner and start walking towards the woods near Manny's. 

    After a two minutes walk I reach our treehouse, its connected to a big tree, if you go behind the tree you'll see a spiral staircase that leads up to the front door. I unlock the door and turn on the light, the lights are generated by a car battery. I look around and see nothing has changed the couch in the corner of the small tree house is clean, the small refrigerator still has snacks, in it. The Tv is still mounted to the wall and the bathroom clean, by bathroom I mean a sink, and a shower. When we had to use the restroom we would walk to Manny's since they're open 24/7. 

    I begin to sit on the couch as I hear the door open I see Lucas enter, the treehouse. I don't want to do this anymore it's too much. "Lucas can you please leave I don't want to fight right now." he looks at his feet. "Dawn we need to talk." I look up at him. "Derek blacked mailed me into molesting Ava." I don't say anything I don't know what to say. "Derek a couple of months ago had s*x with my mom and took a video of it, he was using it against me to make me do things I would never do. I thought if I started hooking up with journey, he would stop blackmailing me, but I never had to sleep with journey, because Logan was already sleeping with her and recorded it, and he sent it to me so I could use it against him." he signed and took a deep breath. 

    "but he didn't care he said post it, he told me if I didn't do that to Ava, he would post it, Dawn I'm so sorry but that's not the only reason I came here today." I looked at him confused. "I saw Ava at Levi's Party." and what he told me that Derek was going to do I shot up from my seat and lunged down the stairs, I ran to my car. "HURRY THE HELL UP LUCAS, WE NEED TO GET THERE NOW!" I screamed from Manny's Diner. He reached my car but before he could put his seat belt on I sped off to the party hoping I could stop it before it was too late.

   AVA POV*** 

        I ran out of the party as fast as I could, my heels were in my hand I was crying, as I ran home. After running for thirty minutes I reach my house, I see my father sitting on the couch, as he turns to looks towards me, I run up the stairs before he could say anything. I run to my run and go to my window seat and begin to ball, I couldn't hold back my tears anymore, especially after tonight. My dad walks in the room, he sits down next to me. "Ava what wrong." he looks concern but I will not fall for that again.

    "Whats wrong? what the hell isn't wrong dad? My family hates me, I get bullied at school, my brother beats me up for every little thing, I lost a bunch of weight because I was basically starved to death, I was kidnapped, molested, and worst of all." I told him what happened tonight, for my father hugged me. I didn't know what to do, this has never happened before, my father has not hugged me in 5 years, he has not hugged me since I was 12 years old.

    "what can I do to help," he asked as he pulled away from our hug. "honestly I don't want to live here anymore, I can't do it dad, they won't stop, please let me leave I have been saving money, and think can move wit-", he cut me off. "Nonsense you can go live in Los Angeles with some of my men who are running the new resort." I begin to smile. "but here's the thing you're going to work with Luca Fransisco, he runs the company right now, but when you're 18 I want you to take over the Resort fully."

    "Dad are you serious?" I've always wanted to run my own company. "sweetheart everything that this family has put you through you deserve this, I'll get the private jet ready." I grab my emergency bag and follow him. "Thats all your bringing?" he asks.

    I sign "yes dad I have always waited for this morning this is my long time run away I bag."  he frowns. "I love you and I am sorry for everything I have done, I'll come see you in a couple weeks, take my Camaro and drive it the the airport, and find a man holding your name and go to him he will help you." 

    "Ok dad I love you I'll finish school over there don't worry I have everything figured out." I hug him and after a minute or so I let go and begin walking to the garage and I turn around one more time to see my dad smiling at me. I wave to him and yell I love you and he say I love you too as I turn towards the car. That was the last time I ever saw my dad in person again.
