3 weeks after being on the island…

One word for this island, spectacular.

Emily is a sweetheart, Anastasia too; they really take care of me. Kevin is nice, he doesn't hit me, and he's like a real dad to me.

Beck, he is a total goofball. When we go to the beach and take walks in the forest, he will pretend to trip and fall and disappear. It scares me a little because I don't know the island that well, but later we laugh our butts off.

Today, we're going to the beach for the third time this week. I love splashing around in the water with Ana, and especially swimming with Beck.

Beck had a really nice body, he was definitely ripped, and he was totally tan.

I can't wear a bikini because my scars on my back from my dad will show, and they are extremely noticeable. He used to whip me and smash bottles on my back sometimes.

Now, my mother didn't know about these beatings, because she goes out and works at night and leaves Trina and I alone until dad comes home. He's supposed to come home at 11pm when mom leaves at 9. But he doesn't come home until nearly 2 in the morning.

Mom worked from 9 till 7 in the morning, leaving dad just enough time to beat the hell out of me, and leave me broken and ending up cleaning up after his mess.

Trina never told anyone about this, because I told her not to. If anyone or mom found out, dad would probably kill me; literally.

I held Anastasia's hand as we walked along side Beck. Ana was singing and humming a little song and I smiled, I love kids.

Beck was smiling at me smiling at Ana. I looked up and blushed as we gazed into each other's eyes. I wish he would just kiss me already, I thought.

We got to the beach a good ten minutes later. Anastasia and I headed straight for the water as Beck called me back.

"Yeah?" I asked.

He cocked his head a little. "Why don't you ever wear a swimsuit? All you wear is a tank top and shorts to the beach."

It was true it was a little odd to wear what I was wearing to go and swim, but I always wore a bikini under. But I wasn't going to just take it off and let my scars be exposed.

"Oh, you know. Can't a girl mix it up a little bit?" I smiled.

Beck smirked and caught a look of the string from my bikini.

"But you're wearing a bikini now. Come on, just take off the top! Were at the beach! Let loose a little bit." He said as he did a funny dance.

I laughed nervously.

I slowly took off the top as he just stared; guess he liked what he saw.

"See that wasn't that bad?" He said.

We were cut off by Ana. "Tori, let's go play in the water." She squealed.

"Okay let's go!" I grabbed a hold of her hand and walked off towards the ocean with her.

I had completely forgotten about the scars and I heard Beck call my name and run over to us.

"Tori what the heck happened to you?" Beck said concerned.

He traced the scars with his fingers, up and down and side to side.

"I-" I tried to speak.

"Who would do this to you?" He asked. Beck sounded like he was about to cry. Did he really care about me that much? We've only known each other for 3 weeks almost a month. But I have never been in a relationship before anyway, so how am I supposed to know how love works?

"Can we talk about this later? I promise I will tell you later." I said whispering so Anastasia didn't hear; I don't want to drag her into this.

He nodded silently and I went to play with Ana in the water.

A few hours later, we decided to head back and have lunch.

We walked in the door and Beck took my hand. "Can we talk now?"

I guess he didn't forget like I thought he would. "Sure."

He led me into his room and he shut the door and I heard Anastasia walk into her room and sing.

Beck looked at me protectively. "Who would dare do that to you?"

I bit my lip. "My father…"

He burst into rage. "Your own father did this! That bastard! I'll kill him!"

"Beck its fine-" I tried to choke out.

"No it's not! It's not normal or even right to do this to a person, let alone your own daughter."

That was when I broke down. Beck pulled me into a hug and I cried into his chest. "I hurt so badly." I manage to say.

"I know." He says obviously crying.

We stood there for what seemed like forever before he semi-pulled away.

Beck looked straight into my eyes. "I won't let anyone hurt you ever again."

I started to cry once more and he started to shush me.

"There's no reason to cry anymore. You're safe, you're safe with me."

I was taken aback by his words. Before I knew it he bent down and kissed me.

Beck tasted like vanilla and pine, he had a beachy scent to him to.

The kiss was passionate. Not like those stupid cheesy kisses you see in movies. This was a real kiss. I had never kissed a boy before, and man was this one heck of a first kiss.

We broke apart forever later. Beck looked down and smiled at me.

I blushed and looked down. He took his finger and laid it under my chin to lift it up.

"Why so sad?" He asked.

"I'm not sad, not at all." I smiled.

*WFL*

I made lunch after our talk and Ana was happy to eat.

"Yummy Tori!" She smiled.

"Of course sweetie." I smiled back.

As we continued to eat, Anastasia kept talking.

"Tori, you would be a really good mommy." I choked on my food a little bit and laughed.

"Oh, Ana, I'm too young to have a child." I said.

Beck chuckled and I gave him a joking glare.

"Why? Mommy and Daddy had CeCe at 18." Anastasia said questionably.

"That's enough." Beck said in a whisper.

By CeCe, I'm pretty sure Ana meant Cecelia, their older sister who is dead.

Cecelia died by eating the wrong type of berries in the woods. The poisonous berries were treatable but the paramedics did not get there fast enough.

Beck had a blank expression for the next 3 hours. Anastasia, Beck and I watched The Last Song, which was one of my favorite movies. When I was balling at the very end, he didn't even look up to comfort me or anything.

The movie was over and I was still crying. Ana walked over to me and gave me a hug.

"It's just a movie Tori, why so sad?" Why so sad, that's what Beck said to me after we kissed.

I stopped crying and wiped my eyes and I saw Beck looking over at me.
"You sure you're okay, Tor?" He whispered.

I nodded assuring. I was far away from okay.

Flashback…

I was watching TV with Trina and we had giant bowls of ice cream. We turned our heads as mom walked down the stairs.

"I am going to work girls, your father should be home around 11 like usual."

Ya, sure he will.

"Okay bye!" Trina and I said in unison.

A few hours passed as it was 1 AM. I was scared of what would happen tonight as I know I have fresh wounds on my back from last night's torture.

Trina was asleep in her room downstairs, she had the big room. Anything for Daddy's little Girl.

I slept in the room at the end of the hall, I loved my room but Dad only settled on this room for me because mom was there. If it was up to him, he would put me in the attic or under the stairs like Harry Potter.

My father arrived at around 3 AM; he slowly headed up the stairs as I could hear from my own room.

"Come out Tori. I have a special present for you."

I walked out and I was hit it the head with a supposed beer bottle.

My head throbbed and bleed from the pain, I could feel the blood tricking down my face.

"Did you like your present? 'Cause there's more coming, Vicky."

I don't dare to open my eyes. I nod and will receive anything that came to me.

"Yes daddy." I said scared.

He took my hand and walked me to the end of the hall. Just as I thought he was going to be nice, he put his forehead against mine and breathed heavily onto my face.

I could smell the bourbon and Jack Daniel's Whiskey under his smelly breath.

"Fly, Tori." He whispered.

"What?" I said quickly and he threw me down the stairs like a doll.

I landed right next to the piano, in too much pain to move.

He walked straight up to me and kicked me in the stomach.

"Why do you do this?" I whispered crying hysterically.

"I didn't want another girl, I wanted a boy. And in fact, I didn't want another child at all, especially one as untalented as you. Katrina Mae is extremely talented and is more special then you'll ever be."

He walked away and slammed the door to his and mom's room.

I heard Trina come up the stairs as she helped me off the floor and clean me up.

At least I knew I could count on one person in my household to take care of me.

END OF FLASHBACK…

I sit there silently as tears rush down my cheeks and I notice I am the only person in the living room. I check the clock, 3PM.

Anastasia went to take a nap and I could hear Beck taking a shower.

I walk into Beck's room and stare at the acoustic guitar in the corner. I pick it up and walk to my room to play my favorite song I play when I am down in the dumps.

I start the first few cords.

Heyyy

You are my fire the one desire

Believe when I say

I want it that way

When we are two worlds apart

Can't reach to your heart

When you say I want it that way

Tell me why I ain't nothing but a heartache

Tell me why I ain't nothing but a mistake

Tell me why I never want to hear you say

That I want it that way

Am I your fire

Your one desire

Yes I know it's too late

But I want it that way

Tell me why I ain't nothing but a heartache

Tell me why I ain't nothing but a mistake

Tell me why I never want to hear you say

That I want it that way

Now I can see that were falling apart

From the way that it used to be

Yeah and no matter the distance

I want you to know that

Deep down inside of me

You are my fire

The one desire

You are you are you are

Don't want to hear you say

Tell me why I ain't nothing but a heartache

Tell me why I ain't nothing but a mistake

Tell me why I never want to hear you say

I want it that way

Tell me why

I ain't nothing but a mistake

Tell me why I never want to hear you say

That I want it that way

'Cause I want it that way

I smile at myself and sudden clapping scares me.

"Ahh!" I scream and fall off my bed.

"Are you okay?" Beck asks.

I look up blushing and embarrassed.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Sorry I was playing your guitar."

"No! You were really good Tori, I wish I could sing like that." Beck says as he hugs me tightly and we stand up.

"My dad told me that I was terrible." I said whispering.

"Huh?" He asked.

"My father always told me I wasn't very good. Well actually his exact words were untalented and ungrateful, and he said Trina had all the talent."

Beck was astonished by my words. "Who says that to their own daughter?"
I shrug. "I was used to it I guess, but it still hurt because Trina was tone deaf and she had absolutely no musical or artsy talent whatsoever."

Beck hugs me tighter. "But that's all over now, you're with us, you're with me." He said.

Beck kisses me quick and I stare into his eyes. "Thank you for saving me." I say softly.

Beck smiles. "Anything for an angel."

I blush as we head downstairs.

*WFL*

Beck and I are sitting on the couch and Ana wakes up from her nap.

"Where are mommy and daddy?" Ana asks.

"They are staying at their little cabin; you know the one by the beach?" Beck says.

Anastasia nods and squeals. "Tori! We could have a sleepover."

I laugh. "Yes! We can make popcorn, and sundaes and watch movies…" I say drifting off.

Ana turns to Beck. "Please!"

Beck hesitates. "Oh okay, on one condition."

Anastasia groans and walks away while talking.

"You can join us." She says glumly.

I chuckle and as does Beck as we get ready for the "Slumber Party" tonight.

*WFL*

We set up a fort to sleep in, sundae "bar" and made tons of popcorn. For dinner we had spaghetti tacos, which is what my friends and I ate all the time back home, before the incident.

"Okay so what movies do you want to watch Anastasia?" I ask her and she drags me off to pick out movies.

She chose two movies, Camp Rock and Camp Rock 2; those were some of Cat's favorite movies to watch. Ana reminds me of Cat a lot. The princess room, the love for Disney Princesses and the random singing especially. Now I know that I have another mini Cat with me.

The first movie started as we ate our sundaes. Beck and I ate it very quick and Anastasia ate it slow. But she got it everywhere but her mouth! But then again she's 5, she doesn't know better.

Ana goes and sits in the fort while I sit on the other end of the couch as Beck.

"Come in the fort with me!" Ana yells.

"I'm going to sit up here with Beck but when we get sleepy we'll move to the fort okay?" I say.

She nods and we continue with the movie.

About an hour later, Ana falls asleep and the first movie is still on. Man, those ice cream sundaes sure made me cold.

I shiver a little and Beck turns to me.

"Are you cold?" He asks concerned.

"No I'm fine." I say and Beck doesn't buy it. He pulls me closer to where he is laying down and I lay my head on his chest.

"Better?" He asks.

"Much." I say smiling.

I fall asleep minutes later and I can feel him playing with my hair.

*WFL*

No One's POV

Emily and Kevin walk in the next morning around 9 and the kids are still asleep. Emily gasps and awe's when she see's Beck and Tori.

"Kevin! Get the camera! This one's a keeper."

Kevin chuckles and sprints to get the camera.

"Emily, they're sleeping leave 'em alone." Kevin says laughing.

Emily takes three pictures. One for her and Kevin, one for Beck and one for Tori.

"Okay now let's get out of here before they wake up!" Emily whispers.

"Too late." Beck says chuckling. He notices Tori is still asleep and he play's with her hair a little.

"You really like her don't you." Emily asks as Kevin walks into their bedroom.

Beck nods. "I think I might even love her."

And the funny part was, Tori was listening the whole time.

This is not my idea this was Catheartsu!
