(A/N): Okay, here is chapter two. Hope y'all like it! R & R!
Allyson awoke the next morning and Danny was gone. She looked around, and she found a note next to her. It read-
I'm sorry I had to leave without saying good-bye. But Max had my family captured. I hope I can be back soon. Please be careful. I love you Peaches.
Danny
Allyson sighed and got dressed. She really hoped he would be back soon. She started downstairs and saw the ugly sight of her wasted father. He was drunk as every night was. She tip- toed the rest of the way down being extra careful not to wake him. He was violent during his hang-overs and often hurt Allyson for no reason. But nobody knew; except Danny. She had became an expert at covering all her bruises, cuts, and scars so none of her teachers ever found out.
Today at school during biology lecture notes Allyson was too busy working on a song she was writing so she didn't really take any notes, well she didn't really need to. But she was too deep in thought and when the teacher called on her she was clueless.
"Allyson, how many bones are in the human body?"snapped Mr. Yale.
"Uh, 237," she answered.
"Ms. Miller, you are my top student; you should know this. Let me see those notes."
"No, that's okay," Allyson whispered. Mr. Yale didn't take no as an answer. He snatched up her paper and looked at it.
"Would you care to explain this, uh "Speak for Myself"?
"Not really."
"Not really huh? Well too bad, I'm the teacher so you get up her and explain it. Now." Mr. Yale stormed. Allyson got up in front of ther whole biology class and began to sing.
Do you see me- do you care
You talk about me- like I'm not there
Don't get a word in- when you're around
I bet you don't know- what I'm about
Cuz' I will, I will speak for myself
What you see isn't all I am
I need a place to stand
I will, I will speak for myself
There's so much you're missing
If you cared you'd listen
You suffocate me- you drown me out
I'm tired of waiting- without a doubt
I feel I'm fading- I flicker out
My heart is screaming- without sound- yeah
Cuz' I will, I will speak for myself
What you see isn't all I am
I need a place to stand
I will, I will speak for myself
There's so much you're missing
If you cared you'd listen
I'm not sorry for who I am
Take it or leavie it
It's my time to take a stand
Throw it or keep it
Know that- don't need to understand
Won't say it again
I will, I will, I will, you know I will
Cuz' I will, I will speak for myself
What you see isn't all I am
I need a place to stand
I will, you know I will
I will speak for myself
There's so much you're missing
If you cared you'd listen
If you cared you'd listen
I will, I will speak for myself
The class clapped weakly and started whispering, probably about her.
"That was very powerful Allyson. Why did you write it?"
"Uh, no reason," she lied.
"Well, good job." The bell rang and class was over. As she hussled to her locker, her regular bully Connor caught up with her.
"What are you trying to do rat us guys out?" Connor asked while giving Allyson a punch.
"No. I wasn't trying to," Allyson said defensively.
"Well this is what you get!" He shoved forward, causing her to tumble down the stairs and hitting the wall head first. Immediately becoming unconcious. Then Danny appeared; too late. Allyson thought she had died and gone to heaven as an ambulance siren blared like the sound of hell.
Is there anyone out there cuz' it's getting harder and harder to breathe
