"You worthless whore!" He yelled as he beat me over and over again. I cried out in pain and yelled for him to stop, but he wouldn't.

He beat me to no end. I turned my cheek towards the ground and curled up in a ball. I looked up and saw Jared. Jared was drifting far and far away. I cried out for him, but he shook his head and walked away.

"JARED!" I yelled.

I woke up gasping of breath. Another nightmare, I thought. I shook my head of un easy thoughts and tried to think of things. I remembered yesterday. It was better than I had thought it would be. Everyone seemed to enjoy my company, even Paul. Which was werid because I thought he hated me.

I scratched my itchy head and knew I needed a shower A.S.A.P. I threw the sheets off of me and jumped up and out of bed. I instantly regretted doing that because I got dizzy.

I had to borrow clothes from Aunt Em last night. I didn't have time to pack anything back "home". I only brought the clothes on my back, with consisted of a pair of black jeans, beat up black converse and a grey t-shirt. I also grabbed my fathers wolf necklace, that he gave to me for my 10th birthday. I never took it off.

I tip toed down the stairs and saw Aunt Emily baking, once again. I figured out it was her newly found hobby.

"Aunt Em?" I called, "Can I borrow some clothes again?"

"Sure! What do you want to wear?" She asked me as she ran into hers and Sam's room.

"Uhm. Just a pair of jeans and a sweater would be fine," I answered.

"Okay! Maybe we could go shopping later? You could meet Rachel, Paul's girlfriend," She replied.

"Paul has a girlfriend?" I exclaimed, shocked, as she handed me a pair of blue skinny jeans and a plain pink sweater.

"Mhmmm," She nodded, as she continued to make another pile of breakfeast. The boys pratically had black holes in their stomachs. They could eat non-stop.

I ran back up the stairs and into the guest washroom. I jumped into the shower and felt the hot water drip down my skin. I scrubbed my hair with strawberry shampoo and conditioner. I stepped out once I felt my skin wrinkle.

I instantly regretted looking in the mirror 'cause all I saw was pure disgust. The bruises were purple and blue-ish looking and the scars were still visible. I felt tears drip down my face as I dressed. I couldn't handle looking at myself anymore so I ran out of the bathroom and to my vanity. I quickly brushed my hair and applied lotion, then I booked it down the stairs. Not once looking back at the mirror.

I smelt bacon and eggs. Yum.

"Morning Kim," I heard a voice say behind me.

I jumped up and turned around to see the voice. It was Jared.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you," He said, sadly.

"It's okay," I replied, sitting down at the dinner table.

Aunt Em smiled and placed a pile of bacon and eggs right in front of me.

"Why does she get first?" Embry yelled out. I never even noticed him.

"Just because," Aunt Em replied.

"Just 'cause what?" Paul whined along.

"Because she's my favourite, besides Sam," Aunt Emily explained.

I laughed, next thing you know everyone else was laughing with me.

"You have a beautiful laugh," Jared whispered beside me.

I smirked at him and replied, "Thanks."

Just then a tall, beautiful girl walked in, "Hi guys. Hi baby," She said, and kissed Paul on the cheek. This must be Rachel, I thought. She had the normal Quilette russet skin, black hair that cascaded in curls and brown eyes.

"Oh who's this?" She asked, directing her gaze at me.

"Hi, I'm Kim," I said getting up, to introduce yourself.

"So, this is Kim! Jared has said to much about you," She said, giving me a hug.

"He has?" I whispered in her ear.

She nodded.

We chatted a bit, and I knew I was going to be good friends with Rachel. She was nice, beautiful and sarcastic, just like me, even though I wasn't really comortable showing it yet.

"Hey Rach? Wanna go shopping later?" I asked her through a mouth full of food.

"I live to shop! Of course!" She replied.


Cliffhanger! But, the next chapter will be interesting. :]
