HISTORY: Nicole woke with a start to her dad and her step mom arguing again. They have been doing that a lot lately. She didn't even realize that she had fallen asleep. She got out of bed and moved to go turn off her TV, witch was no doubt playing her favorite movie "Newsies".
She watched it everyday. I guess it was kind of an escape for her. To her their life was so surreal. They didn't worry about anything. They were lost in there own little fiction world. Nicole wanted to be a newsie so bad. She loved a certain cane baring boy in the show.
She often had dreams about going back in time so she wouldn't have to deal with the harsh reality of her own messed up life. Her parents were never married and they were on and off from when her brother Jon was born till about three years later when she turned one. It wasn't that her parents didn't love each other oh no. They loved one another very much but only as friends. They didn't want to put their kids through the torment of seeing them fight so they finally broke everything off.
Nicole and Jon grew up with their grandmother and their mom. Occasionally seeing their dad on the weekends. She remembered loving her life as a kid nothing to worry about, only what toy was she going to pay with next. At the time her best friend was molly she lived a few houses down they did everything together. Her mother was the best person in her life; she so loved and was always their when something was wrong.
Then there was her grandma she loved her so much. She would spend hours in the kitchen cooking with her. She also spent a lot of time wither her brother they were almost inseparable. When she first came into the world Jon was a little jealous. He thought that he didn't get any attention anymore.
That all changed when Nicole got older. They were always making mischief. Like the time when they tried to ride there bikes down the stairs and she chipped her tooth. She can't to this day remember much from the ages of two through six. Just little tidbits hear and there.
She does know that she doesn't remember any sad memories of that time. It all took a turn for the worst when she moved in with her father. Her mom and dad were always fighting when they were together over something or another. She remembered when her dad cut Nicole's beautiful long hair so short she almost looked like a boy. That day was a little scary. Her mother started screaming at the top of her lungs and threw a rock at her dad's car and it cracked the window. Her dad never came by anymore-other then to drop her off and pick her up.
They slowing began talking again and they decided that it would be better for the kids if they moved in with their dad. He had more money coming in and he lived in a more stable environment, so they thought. They moved a lot once they moved in with their dad. At first they lived with their uncle in a small house but nice nonetheless.
He had a girlfriend at the time her name was Kim. She had a dog and was very nice to Nicole and her brother. That relationship lasted for a long time but for some reason or another ended. They moved out of the house and into a town home, which the kids loved. It was called Georgetown this is when hell began.
Their dad became mean and angry. I mean sure most of the time he was a nice loving guy but he had his mean streaks and when I say mean I mean MEAN. He never hurt Nicole but Jon was a different story. He started to hit him. Only when he got really mad, but this terrified Nicole. She remembers one night when her dad was really angry at Jon cause he stayed out late that night.
His dad pushed him up against the wall and said "how many times do I have to tell you that when it gets dark COME HOME!" all Nicole could do was watch. She sat behind the vacuum cleaner terrified beyond believe. She watches her dad slap him and then kick him. That was the worst of them all for a while until they were much older.
When Nicole was about to go into second grade her dad had a new love interest. Her name was Liz. She was a kind lady and she had a daughter who was her same age. They moved to mound that year to live with them. She felt jealous of her daughter Whitney cause she never got in trouble. It was always Nicole who was the one to get yelled at. Her brother had his own room on the second level while Nicole shared a room with whiney on the third level.
Liz was a drinker. She had at least four or five glasses of wine every day. She remembered one night while Nicole and Whitney were sitting in their twin beds laughing and talking to each other and Liz came up drunk.
She smelled strongly of wine, they were used to this and so they paid no mind and kept on playing. They were pretending to do sign language to each other when Nicole did the hang loose sign for no apparent reason just cause that what her fingers did. Then Liz started to scream at her, "you will never ever do that sign to my daughter ".
She was so confused she didn't know what she had done wrong so all she could do was sit there until finally her dad came in. he asked what was going on and I told him and he got so mad. He was sick of her drunken antics.
He tried to get her to quit drinking and get some therapy but it only led to more fights so at the end of second grade Nicole and Jon moved in to their dads mothers house. They weren't close to this grandma as they were to their grandma Wolfe. They felt very out of place in that house. It was like it wasn't even their family.
Their dad then found an apartment called parkway they moved in there. Those were going to be the best years of Nicole's life. She learned so much living there. She gained a best friend Stacey. They did everything together. Nicole was practically part of their family. Stacey mom called Nicole her second daughter. There was also Brittney. Brittney was her friend before Stacey but Nicole never really liked her. She was told she had to be nice.
Her brother Jon also made some best friends there. They were so happy. There were tons of kids ranging in six years apart even Nicole being right in the middle. They still did everything together. Her and Stacey had so many memories there some of them weren't good though.
Like Steve he was one of the more unpleasant ones he was a perverted pig. There were so many things that went on their good bad, memories that is. I don't know where to start so I'm not even going to try I will tell you a few of her favorites though.
Well one afternoon her and Stacey didn't feel like dealing with Brittney so they were hiding out from her in the apartment but they were so bored. They wanted to go roam the woods or go to the store or do something. So they decided to put on their brothers clothes and run to the store. On the way back they saw Brittney they didn't think she recognized them but they weren't too sure so they ran as fast as they could. In the process Stacey's pants fell down luckily the shirt came to her knees anyways. They both fell over they were laughing so hard.
Then there were there delinquent sides. They got really bored one day and decided to tamper with the mail. They found two sticks and started to pull out cards from the outgoing mail slot, making sure no one was looking of course. Sure they never found money and always put them back- opened or not - but they still felt bad doing it and had so much fun.
There wasn't only her memories with her friends oh no. There was her family life. About a year after Liz her dad started to date this total evil step witch type lady Nancy. They hated her so much but their dad would never believe them when they told of what she did when he was out. She would make them clean and do chores till no end. Tell them they couldn't go anywhere. And yell at them constantly.
During these years my dad became more abusive to Jon. He would shove him and yell and he seemed angry a lot. Little did they know this was just the beginning? Some of the more drastic things her father did were throw a TV to the ground. That was very scary Nicole thought her dad had gone nutty.
One time her threw Jon into the refrigerator and gave him a black eye the people above us heard the commotion and called the cops. Of course my dad denied all of it, as did Jon. I didn't say anything I just sat in my room scared half to death. I didn't understand and I don't to this day, why my brother loves my dad.
I mean when he got that black eye he couldn't go to school for a few days. Jon was developing quiet a few bruise from all the hits. He was even questioned by the school wondering where they were coming from. Apart from her friends Nicole was miserable. She tried to stay away as much as she could.
She hated it there and they weren't even that mean to her yet. Then at the end of sixth grade her dad announced they were getting married. She pretended to be happy when she new this would be the end of her happiness even thought it was little.
The next three years were too much for her to handle. At first it wasn't that bad they had moved into a house before Nicole started seventh grade. As she looked back on parkway it made her cry. She learned so much from everyone. From Stacey she learned that you had to be strong and that there isn't everything bad about the world and to look at the happy things. From Brittney she learned to deal with people. She gained people skills. When she looked at her brother she found great strength he was so brave he wouldn't let my dad affect him.
He was my pillar of strength. She began to get abused just as bad as Jon. She was constantly getting slapped and hit upside the head and pushed. She was even pushed down the stairs. Sometimes she thought that when her step mom or dad got bored they would punish her just for the fun of it. They found everything and anything that they could to punish them.
Random searches were done in there rooms. They were always getting into fights with their dad it was a battle their dad stuck in the middle. Having to choose his kids or his wife and he always chose his wife. Then came along Mara and Ellie the newest members of the family. They only brought more fighting. Those kids gave them more tings to yell at us for.
They became all that mattered and we were pushed aside. Jon had gotten into drugs. He constantly was breaking the rules it was like that what's he had been doping his whole life. He got bad grades and was really annoying. That's when we grew apart.
She couldn't handle him when he was high. He got so mean and angry. He started to separate from her he used to tell her everything now he tells her nothing. He just sees her as a stupid dork. When Nicole got to high school unlike Jon she got into tech. She buried herself in it hiding away all the pain. It was something she could do and never be home.
She also became obsessed with the Internet. She grew cold. Her attitude was like ice. She wouldn't confide in anyone. She made new friends. There was still Stacey of course but once hey moved away from each other there relation ship did too. Stacey didn't like individuality and when Nicole got into high school. She grew a more defined personality one that was hers and not like anyone else's.
Stacey didn't like this much. Nicole's newest best friends were Keila, Jill, and Nikki. Thos four did everything together. But still everyone noticed how cold Nicole had grown. She was becoming so distant not talking as much. Not really ever happy. And she would constantly read. She lost her appetite. She became a bitch. I know it sounds harsh but there's no other way to put it. She was so mean to almost everyone I mean not mean just had an attitude. No one cared they just thought sure that's how she is. No one knew what was really bothering her or why she really hated life. You would think her mom would be a relief. She was at first always there when she was so sick of her dad. But her mom did drugs.
She became mean and bithcy almost twenty-four seven. Then she almost died of a drug overdose. Sure over her lifetime she has had several family members pass away including her grandpa to whom she was very close too. But nothing compared to seeing her mom half dead lying in the hospital with tubes in her mouth.
Then after those things were better her mom went through treatment. That was a Christmas from hell. Christmas day I had to go visit my mom in a treatment center. Her mom was all-better but then a while later she became mean not because she was drinking and doing drugs but because she wasn't. She started to call Nicole names. Make fun of her. Tell her when she gained weight and other things.
Nicole's self esteem was lowered quiet a bit. No matter how much someone would say she was beautiful she still didn't believe him or her. That brings you all back to the present day when she once again woke up to yelling.
Well that was it the first chapter of my first story you should really review cause I wants to know what everyone thinks!!
