Disclaimer- again I am so NOT j.k rowlings. And even if I was why would I
tell you. But please use common sense if I was her I would be out spending
all of my money and dating all of the hot guys.
Chapter Two (for those of you who bother to read)-
After Arnold had slid in and shut the door, he grabbed my jaw in his fist. Whipping my face around he shouted, " Now listen here you freakish bitch. Your mother told me all about this crackpot shit you get up to during the school year. Turning mice into teacups and what not." Tears began to roll down my face as his words grew harsher and his actions more violent. Shaking me and pulling at my blood-red hair he began to shout, "And your mother thought there was nothing wrong with it! It's abnormal I tell you and when we get home." he shook his head in disgust at me, " There will be hell to pay." After slamming my head back against the seat he drove toward home.
Terrified out of my wits I froze where I was, and remained that way the entire three-hour ride home. Rash thoughts began to pound through my head; "Maybe I could open the car door at the next red light and run away." As if reading my mind though, he spoke, "And don't think about getting out of the car Lily dear. The child lock is on an your door can only be opened from the outside"
My name seemed like a curse word on his lips as he spat those ill- fated words at me. The only solace I could find was that we would soon be home and once there, my mother would make everything all right like she always did. Our black Honda pulled noiselessly up the drive to our three- floor house.
Once the car stopped my hand immediately reached towards the handle. A split second before I pulled I remembered what he had said about the child protection lock. I tried the door anyway. To my great surprise it opened, and I immediately sprinted up to the drive and into the house. Upon hearing the door open my mother came into the hall and opened her arms as I fairly ran into them.
At 5'5 I was less than two inches shorter than my mother was. She was a gorgeous brunet with green eyes that you could lose yourself in. I had inherited my fathers wavy auburn hair and fair complexion, while getting my mothers mesmorisingly green eyes. When I began to cry on her shoulder she stiffened in surprise and asked gently, "What's wrong sweetie?" her voice reflecting the amazement she obviously felt. "Arnold. He, he h-hit me and yelled at me calling me a freakish b-bitch!"
She hugged me even more tightly before releasing me and turning to face the door. I turned as well and saw Arnold standing casually in the doorway. My luggage was on the floor beside him. He obviously didn't want anyone to have an excuse to go outside.
"What the hell did you do to this child!?" My mother demanded. "Grace you might want to keep your voice down or you'll wake up Petunia." She started to yell again but he cut her off and said, using that same oily sick voice of his, "I think you'll do as your told." And suddenly I saw the gun tucked into his jacket pocket. He reached in and pulled it out. Knowing very little about guns, I still understood when I heard a clicking sound, that the gun was loaded. " Now I think that we will go into the living room and have a nice little chat." When she had seen the gun, my mother had stepped in front of me as of to screen me from view. Upon hearing him, she turned her back on him, placed one hand on my shoulder, spun me around and pushed me gently toward the directed room, all the while saving me from the sight of that awful gun.
