Clary's Pov
I woke up to someone pushing me I opened my eyes groggily to see my six year old daughter's green eyes staring at me she touched the bruise on my neck and I winced. "I'm hungry mommy." She said with tears in her eyes. I got up slowly from the couch where we sleep and went into the kitchen to find something, anything to eat all I found was a piece of bread and some peanut butter. I spread it on the bread and handed it to her she looked at it and smiled. "Thank you." She said softly and I nodded. I left her alone to eat and went into the bedroom where Conner was sleeping I tapped him and he groaned.
"You told me to wake you up at 8 well it's 8:30 now i'm sorry I was-" He got up and pushed me to the wall.
"Can you ever do anything right? Just once?" He yelled walking out of the room and I followed he looked at Emmi but she had her head dropped biting into the bread. "You're going to get fat." He said to her and she put the bread down.
"There's nothing to eat here Conner if you would just let me go to the store and-"
"I will go to the store after I get off of work, you and that damn brat are so fucking ungrateful you know that? I do everything for you too and you don't give a shit!" He yelled again this time throwing his glass of water at the wall making it shatter, Emmi jumped in her chair but said nothing. "Clean it the fuck up." He said and I walked over to it and started picking up broken pieces of glass. "What are you looking at?" He asked Emmi and she shook her head.
"Nothing daddy." She said softly.
"Do we waste food in this house?"
"No Sir."
"Then eat it before you get your ass beat." He said walking back into the room and Emmi started to cry as she eat her bread.
By the time I cleaned up the glass and water Conner was already in the shower I looked over to Emmi who was sitting on the couch with the only toy she had a stuffed bunny named Bunnygruff, I walked over to her and wiped her tears away.
"Why does daddy hate us?"
"Emmi…" She leaned in against me and cried into my shirt the shower turned off and I tried to hush her. "Baby please you have to stop daddy will get mad if you don't stop crying." I said and it just made her cry even harder he walked out of the room with his work clothes on and he looked mad.
"Shut up or i'll give you something to cry about." He said and it only made her cry more.
"Conner please i'll get her to stop just go to work-" He pushed me away from her but I grabbed him again and he got up pulling me to the room. "You too are pissing me off today and I just fucking got up." He said as he punched me I fell to the ground and he got on top of me pinning my hands down above my head. "After dinner you will be waiting for me in that bed and if you aren't there I will make your life hell, do you hear me?" I nodded Emmi was still crying in the living room I tried to get up to get her but he pushed me back down and left the room.
"DADDY NO!" Emmi screamed and then a piercing cry came from her tears started falling as I struggled to sit up, the door opened and slammed shut Emmi ran into the room. "Mommy.." She said and she dropped next to me and put her head under my chin. "I'm sorry mommy i'm sorry I cried I didn't mean to do it I promise i'm sorry." She said looking at me with silent tears falling.
"It's okay baby, it's okay it wasn't your fault. I promise." I rocked her back and forth trying to get her to calm down.
"Mommy?"
"Yeah baby?"
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine Em." I said and she looked at me and frowned her dark blonde hair getting in her face she pushed it out of the way and stood up. "Where you going?"
"To watch a movie." She said stretching her hand out for me to take it and she smiled at me. "Let's watch Finding Nemo because that's my favorite movie."

I groaned as I woke up I looked around my room and suddenly realized this wasn't even my room I looked over and there was a girl sleeping next to me I tried to remember last night but it was all a haze, I got up quickly finding my clothes and slipping out of her room and out the door throwing my shirt on over my head as I ran to my car. "Never again." I said to myself with a yawn I drove back to my house which wasn't very far I walked inside and seen Izzy sitting on the couch.
"Have a nice one night stand big brother?" She asked laughing.
"I could of been working and just slept there. You never know."
"I was out with you guys last night, you and little miss bottle blonde as you called her were going back to her house because her little Jacey Wacey wanted to have some fun. Yes she called you that and yes you were way too drunk to care."
"You let me go with her?" I asked shocked.
"Well you wanted to so I said what the hell why not."
"Well at least I don't work until late tonight so I can relax." I said dropping onto the couch beside her and she laughed. "What?"
"Max's birthday is today you know little brother turned 14 today mom was wondering why you hadn't showed up yet so I volunteered to come and get you."
"Shit…"
"Yeah." She said laughing and I got up.
"I'm gonna take a shower really quick and then we can go." I said running up the steps.
"Jace you're here!" Max said with a smile he pushed his glasses up some as he came up and hugged me.
"Man you're old as shit." I said and mom smacked my arm.
"Language." She said shaking her head.
"Where is dad and Alec?"
"They are outside we are gonna play football." He said dragging me towards the door.
"Let's get ready to rumble." I said and Alec looked at me with a sideways glace.
"Wrong sport bro." Alec said laughing.
"Are you staying all day?"
"I don't know yet i'm working the night so i'm gonna need to go home and get some sleep."
"Oh okay." Max said sadly.
"Ahhh come on man today is gonna be perfect."
Clary's Pov
"Today is horrible." Emmi said as she stood on top of the counter looking for something to snack on before Conner got home from work.
"Baby please be careful."
"Mommy tomorrow can we go to the park again like we did last month?"
"We have to see if, if he's working late we can and we will even stop for ice cream."
"Really! Ice cream! You're serious?" She asked and I nodded.
"But remember only if he works late if not we have to wait okay?" I said and she nodded.
We sat around most of the day watching movies when the door creaked open and Conner came in and looked at me and then the bedroom door and then back at me but he didn't say anything he went to the kitchen and dropped the stuff on the counters.
"Make dinner." He said and I got up and went over to the bags I looked over at him as he walked over to Emmi and sat by her she tensed up she was biting her lip to keep herself from crying.
"Did you have a good day daddy?" She asked.
"Yeah it was fine." He said, he wasn't always mean and cruel he had his moments where he could be a good man the man I fell in love with but he had a trigger that could switch at any moment and snap the simplest of things could piss him off after that she stayed quiet just looking at the TV every so often she would laugh and i'd see Conner smile a little at her.
"Get me a beer please." Once the words left his mouth I was terrified he was a mean drunk he gets more violent then when he's sober and I hesitated. "God damn it, Emmi go get me a beer since your mother can't do shit." He said and she got up slowly and ran to the fridge and got the beer and walked back to him and handed it to him she was shaking as he took it from him and he pat the cushion for her to sit next to him and she was hesitant at first but did it anyway.
"Dinner is ready." I said after he had finished his third beer. He came and sat down at the table and started to eat Emmi sat down staring at his food knowing we weren't aloud to do anything until after he was done eating. He pointed towards the fridge and I got up and handed him another beer.
"That's enough Emmi god damn you're eating like a cow." He said. "Get me another beer."
"I think you had enough." I mumbled and he glared at me.
"What did you just say?'
"I'm sorry." I said and he stood up.
"Go to the room and wait for me."
"Conner-"
"I SAID GO BITCH!" I got up and walked into the room he came in a few seconds later. "You really know how to fucking piss me off don't you?" He said coming closer to me and he reached out and I flinched which caused him to laugh. "I do it all around here and when all I want to do is fucking relax you act out and tell me I had enough. No i'll tell you when I had enough."
"Okay i'm sorry." I said and tried to push past him but he grabbed me and pushed me onto the bed and slapped me.
Emmi's Pov
I could hear him hitting her the words he was saying to her mommy begged him to not do something but he didn't listen and she screamed in pain tears came to my eyes, I just wanted a daddy who loved me and hugs me and tells me stories and let's me sleep in there bed when I get scared at night. There was a loud bang sound and I got scared and fell off the couch and on to the floor I knocked over daddy's really expensive box that he keeps his medicine in, mommy says it's not medicine and I should never go near it. I was trying to pick it up when daddy came out of the room and seen me.
"What the fuck."
"I'm sorry… I'm cleaning it, don't be mad."
"You dumb little bitch." He said and grabbed something that was behind the door, he walked back towards me with a belt and I tried to run but he grabbed me by the hair and started hitting me with it I screamed and called for mommy but she didn't come daddy had hurt her too. I put my hand out to try and stop him from hitting me but it hit my hand and it hurt he pushed me down I hit my head and everything started to go dark. "Shit…" I heard him say as he got up and walked back into the room the next thing I know mommy is at my side and she is holding me.
"Hey, you're okay baby girl you're gonna be okay."
This might end up being a oneshot i'm not sure yet.
