Not Fair
-it's not fair and I think you're really mean-
Damn this life.
Sighing, she pulled her dress down, tugging on the fabric until it came to her knees. Her hair was matted to her head by the forces of wind and rain, and as she stood on the corner, shivering in the cold, she wished that a car would come along and take her away.
Where was he?
It wasn't fair that he could be late, but whenever she was, he yelled and raved on about it. It wasn't fair that he could just show up whenever he liked. She did have other things to do, you know, dinner to make and dishes to wash after his poker game last night.
There was a screech as the car pulled around the corner, heavy base lines thumping, auible even from her spot of the corner. She let out a sigh of relief, before tugging on her dress once more.
"Hey, baby," Justin slurred out as he pulled up. She paced towards him, heels clacking and eyes narrowed.
"Your drunk," she prounced, to which he shrugged. Rubbing her eyes tiredly, she took her seat in the car, glancing only quickly at him before he pulled away, screaming to the music as he reved up.
Why had she chosen him, of all people, to date? Whenever he worked, yes, he was a fairly respectable man, but when he got on the drink, everything changed. She was sad to say that he had hit her once or twice, screaming at her, before falling to the floor. She had never reported it, but she was sincerely sick of being treated like a punching bag.
Yes when he got on the drink, everything changed.
She quickly leant forwards to change the radio station, sneaking a quick peek at him. When he didn't react, she turned the knob once halfway around, settling back into her chair as the opening bars of the new song started to play. He grumbled softly at the change in music, but kept driving, eyes straight ahead.
"Oh, he treats me with respect, he says he loves me all the time."
Yeah, right.
Ah! First off, big apologies to Justin Finch-Fletchley I'm sure he wouldn't do that, but I needed a Muggle-born wizard that people kinda knew and notsome random OC! Anyway, three down! Review? :)
