I understand that Author's Notes are seriously frowned down upon on , and listed in the guidelines as not being allowed, but I feel it important to warn potential readers of the darkness this story shall contain. If you're looking for a happy story, I suggest you hit the back arrow immediately. The ending may or may not be a happy one, I haven't decided yet, but the beginning is going to reflect the darkness of the main character's life.

I realize that most people will not read an OC story about an abused teenage girl, but that is merely because they haven't found a good one yet. I hope for this to be a good read, but I am not writing this for writing's sake, or even to live out the fantasies of a deranged fan-girl. I write this to inform and to entertain. To inform the readers of the physical, psychological, and emotional issues faced by the byproducts of an abusive household. The character I shall use will not represent sexual abuse. However, she will show the signs of someone heading down the path which leads to subjecting one's self to sexual violence due to their longing for any type of affection they can get. She has never known love, or companionship, has never been hugged by a friend or relative, has never been given a compliment by such a person, has never even had a friend, and thus, she has no idea what to expect from men.

I will repeat, only this one last time: this is not a happy story.
