1. Preface

Hello, this is Saprtan Girl 350, I had some comments to put the first few chapter up... so there they are :)

This was an idea that came into my head while I was asleep. I hope you enjoy it. Remember, I do not own Twilight, yet. My mother is still working on it.

Preface

"Mom! I'm home!" I called as I stepped into my apartment in Vancouver. As usual there was no answer. I walked into my room and put my laptop in it's carry bag. I grabbed a suitcase and filled it with clothes, shampoo, soap, some deodorant and some other toiletries.

I walked into the hall and grabbed my backpack. I emptied it's contents onto my bed and shoved them under my bed. I went into the kitchen and took some canned goods, Kraft Dinner, TV dinners and other travel foods.

I grabbed five cans of pop from the fridge. When I closed it, I saw the note.

Jamie,

I went with Drake and his buddies for a couple drinks. We'll be home by supper time.

Mom

I rolled my eyes and tried to ignore the tears that were threatening to fall. I did not want to deal with that fact that she took him back. The sleaze-bucket she calls a husband.

No, I'm won't stay in a house with that thing. Not after all he has done to me. After all those years of torture and abuse.

I stepped into the bathroom and looked at the mirror. My brown hair fell in waves down my shoulders; my bangs went just to my nose. My copper coloured highlights really made me stand out. My brown eyes are weird. One eye is chocolate brown and the other eye is so dark it's almost black. You can barley see the pupil in that eye.

I sat at the table reading until mom and Drake walked in. I put my book in my backpack and pretended I was happy to see them.

"Hi mom! Drake!" I said with fake happiness, even though inside it was killing me that he was still here.

"Hello Jamie!" the slime ball said. He was looking at with a look that said, 'just wait 'til your mother isn't here'. I gulped, knowing I would not be alone with him, ever again. Not if my plan goes like planned.

I sat at the table with my mother and him and made small talk. After dinner I gave my mother a hug and went into my room. I packed a couple books, some DVDs, a portable DVD, my MP3, a lighter, some Tylenol, some band aids and a few other things from my first aid kit.

I put the suitcase and the backpack under my bed. I locked my door and my window and put my baseball bat in the bed beside me. I climbed into be and fell asleep.
