Sharpay sat in her room waiting for her father to return. Ryan was out and her mother was downstairs watching TV. Suddenly the door banged shut and Sharpay gulped. He was home.

She sucked in her breath and waited. Suddenly there was a crash and a squeal. Sharpay ran down the stairs 2 at a time and ran into the room to see her father kicking her mother and holding a near empty vodka bottle in his hand.

'You whore! Why is my meal not ready! For Gods sake Hiliary, you should know by now that if you do something wrong, you need to be punished. NOW GET MY DINNER!' he stopped kicking Hiliary and the blonde 38 year old woman scrambled up and ran into the kitchen. Sharpay tried to back quietly out of the room but she was too late. He had already spotted her. She ducked as the empty bottle flew across her head and hit the wall.

'BITCH! GET ME MORE VODKA!' he yelled, red faced. Sharpay nodded and ran to the cellar and brought out more drink. She came back into the living room and handed the crate to him.

'Good girl. Now go and help your bitch mother prepare my dinner.' He said softly, unscrewing the vodka and lime bottle. Sharpay nodded and walked into the kitchen to see her mother cleaning herself up.

'Oh mum, why do you let him do it?'

'Darling, he's just having a hard time at work. He loves us and we just have to give him time. Now put the pasta in the boling water Pay.' She said sadly.

'Mum, I really think we should tell Ryan.'

'No!' Hiliary cried. 'We can't. We have to protect him. It' bad enough that you and I are being used as punchbags for him.'

'Oh so we're gonna get beaten while Ryan roams free? He's gonna find out sooner or later.' Sharpay hissed.

'Stop giving me back chat young lady!' Hiliary yelled and she put here freshly pressed tomato and herb sauce on the steaming pasta.

'Now bring that out to your father.' Hiliary ordered. 'I'm going to bed.'

Sharpay nodded obediently and took it out to him.

'Here you go Daddy.' She whispered, shakily giving the tray to him.

'Thankyou my princess.' He said in a seductive voice. Sharpay let out a nervous laugh.

'Your welcome Daddy.'

He placed the dinner beside him and got up and walked over to her.

'You're a beautiful gal Sharpay.' He said huskily. Sharpay was getting very nervous. Was he hitting on her?

Suddenly he forced his mouth on hers and forced his tongue into her mouth. He was reaching for her skirt buttons when the door knoced.

'DAD! I CAN'T FIND MY KEYS CAN YOU OPEN THE DOOR PLEASE!' came Ryan's voice. Mr Evans jumped away from his daughter.

'Coming Ryan!' he called. Then he faced Sharpay. 'Not a word bitch, or you will regret being born.'

Sharpay gulped and watched her father walk out. She just stood there breathing heavily.

'God help me, what am I going to do now?'
