A/N
I was listening to According To You and the song I Knew You Were Trouble and I got the idea for this story.

"MAX!" I'm so tired of this. I trusted him. I thought I loved him. I guess I was wrong.

"WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?"

Oh no, he's back.

"I'm here Fang." I wonder where he was. He was supposed to meet me two hours ago.

"Hey, where were you," I prepared my self for what was to come. I knew not to ask. I just lead to a punch in the stomach or worse.

"I was busy with homework." He said to quickly. I know something's up. I was relieved he didn't strike me. He always has some excuse for being late or not showing up at all. I knew he was cheating on me. Gassy and Iggy has seen him with two other redheads.

"Hey babe, what's wrong you seem out of it?" I snapped out of my thoughts. Fang leaned in for a kiss, but it wasn't a gentle loving kiss. It was a hungry rough kiss. I had been yearning for the moment he would call me babe and kiss me, but I didn't feel anything. I thought back to him kissing some other girls. He leaned in again, but I got up. He gave me a confused look.

"I'm sleepy" I replied. It wasn't completely a lie, it was late but I couldn't bare looking at him after knowing he was cheating on me.

"You're not going anywhere," he sneered. He yanked on my wrist throwing me on the couch. He was hovering over me. I felt fear take over my body.

"Let me go Fang," I struggled to get out of his grasp.

"You always disobey me Max, now you're going to obey me whether you like it or not," I leaned deeper into the couch, desperately wanting to get away from him. Fang had gotten violent around the second month we were dating. I thought it wouldn't last but the violence just got worse.

Flashback

I was listening to my music waiting for Fang to come over. I heard the door open, but ignored it.

"Hey babe," He slurred.

"Fang, have you been drinking?" He leaned in closer to me. I could smell the intoxicating stench of the alcohol. I leaned further into me bed in hopes to breath fresh air.

"Come on Max, I came all the way to your house to see you." He pulled me under him, so he was hovering over me. I was taken by surprise. Fang smashed his lips against mine. I quickly pushed him off me.

"What the hell Max." His face was contorted with anger. I flinched at his glare.

"I- I – uh." I felt a sting on my cheek.

"Fang, y- y- you slapped me." I was trembling like a leaf.

"Max, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it." His hand reached for my cheek. I recoiled back in fear.

End of flashback

That was the first time he ever hit me. He apologized and said it would never happen again. I was stupid to believe him. I was scared of him. Is it normal to be terrified of your boyfriend? I knew I had to something. I was no longer going to let him control me.

"At least I don't cheat on my lover." He paled and loosened his grip a bit. That was all I needed to get away from him. I went to the other side of the room and tried to put as much space between us.

"I didn't cheat on you, Max I love you."

"Really because you're never with me and you're always late to our dates?"

"Well may be it because your stupid and can't do anything right, you're moody and difficult to please, I can't take you anywhere." His voice got louder with each word. I flinched at his voice. I felt a pang in heart. I really loved Fang, even if he treated me like junk, but I guess the feeling is no longer mutual.

Tears threatened to spill but I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of seeing me cry.

"You're useless any ways." He steeped closer to me. He had a murderous look on his. I took a step back each time he took a step forward. I felt a wall behind me. Before I could get was Fang had cornered me. I felt pain shoot from my side. I was doubled over.

"Don't ever question me again." With that he left slamming the door shut. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. I was relieved he had left. The minute he stepped out the door I broke down. I had known he was cheating but hearing him admit it hurt. That jerk can go to hell for all I care now. He's free to suck face with his air-headed-redheads.

For some reason I saw this coming, around the second week we were dating I knew something was wrong. I was relieved yet I felt a hole in my heart, I was left brokenhearted. I curdled up in my bed and waited for sleep to overcome me.

I was awoken by my evil alarm clock, which I got back at by slamming my hand over it. The memories of last night found their way back to me. I could feel the water works coming back to me. I quickly got up and got ready for school even though it was only five in the morning.

I took a long warm shower. I took my clothes off and winced at the giant bruise from where fang hit me. By the time I got out it was around six. I woke my sister, Ella, and made my way to the kitchen. I made us toast and got out the Nutella. Nutella is the best and chocolate could really cheer me up. Ella didn't know about the beating or that Fang was cheating on me, I would tell her at the same time I told the others to save myself the pain. I was dreading school. School meant seeing him all day. Someone kill me now.

BTW, Nutella is the best. I am obsessed with Nutella.
