Dancing In The Rain

Chapter 3

What Were You Thinking

Michael POV

I was there. I was at Dana's house, and my mom had already driven off. I was really nervous. I thought some yelled Dana's name, but they didn't yell it normally. They were really angry. Thank God! I saw Dana running towards me. She looked happy but scared at the same time. What was going on?

No One POV

Dana was running towards Michael. She was smiling, but inside, she was frowning. She was so scared of what her father would do to her. He might beat her. But she didn't care what he would do now. She was just glad to see Michael. Dana ran up to Michael. He wrapped her up in a big hug and picked her up and twirled her around. She kissed him on the cheek.

"Hey!" Dana said happily. "Hey!" Michael said. "Get your bags and I'll show you to your room!" Dana said and she walked towards the house. As they walked to the room, Michael was worried. He could tell that Dana was nervous, but he didn't know why.

Dana took Michael downstairs to her mom and dad. "Mom, Dad, this is my boyfriend, Michael." Dana locked eyes with her fathers, and she could tell he was going to do something bad. "Dana, can I see you in the kitchen please?" her dad asked. Uh oh. Dana thought. She left the room, and her dad followed. She entered the kitchen. "What do you think you're doing?" her dad said angrily as he pushed her up against the wall, really hard. "Ouch." Dana said, quietly. "Ouch?" her father said, " If he stays here, you're going to say a lot more than ouch. You hear me?" "Yes sir." Dana said, crying. "I said do you hear me?" Her father said, even louder. "Yes sir." She said, louder, but still crying. "Good." He said, and he got his belt and whipped his seventeen year old daughter.

Dana ran to her room, crying. "I guess she wasn't hungry." Her mom said to Michael, smiling. "I'm not real hungry either. It was a long trip." Michael said, and he went up to his room and went to bed.

Dana got on her computer and saw that Zoey and Nicole were online. Chat time!

Oh God, my butt hurts so bad. Maybe I should got to Zoey's. Dana thought, and she went to bed.

I know. Kind of short. I know Dana's not white. Let's make it this. her dad is white and her mom is half Puerto Rican. Does that work for you guys? I had to get im names with the help from my friends. I wouldn't try them, though. Cuz' I don't know if they're real or not. Keep reviewing. I only have five reviews.

zxxbsmsgirl3148: I love this story so far, too. I cleared up the whole Dana being Spanish thing, so if it doesn't sound right, sorry.

MrsLoganReese: That was a good "cliffie", wasn't it? Well, thanks for the review.
