The walk to school was painful. My side ached with every step. I was debating whether telling the others about Fang would be a good idea. If he found out he would hit me more and deny it. I still love Fang, or at least that what I think. I haven't felt that special spark between us or the butterflies in my stomach whenever he would smile.

I was currently walking to school with Iggy, Nudge, and Ella. The order was Iggy, me, Nudge, and Ella. Iggy is my best friend along with Nudge. Nudge is Iggy's brother; they live across the street from me. We reached school. I was attacked by two mischievous kids, Angle and Gazzy. Angel is 12, she's Fang's adoptive sister. Zephry is Iggy's brother. He the same age as Angel, but we call him Gazzy. I winced as Angle ran up and hugged me, squeezing my bruised side.

"Max, what's wrong" Angel looked up at me with concern.

"Nothing, sweetie," I lied.

"Max." I turned to see Fang walking up to us.

"What's wrong," I could hear the falseness of his concern. He came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist, holding me tightly against his chest.

"Don't tell anyone or you know what you'll get," he whispered in my ear as he tightened his grip around my waist making me wince slightly. To anyone else it would look like he was hugging me.

I just smiled and walked off to my classroom as the bell rang. Class went on as usual until I got to lunch. Although Fang and I were dating we never ate lunch together, but today was different. Fang wanted me to eat lunch with him so he could show me off to the idiots he calls friends. He brags about hitting me to make me obedient. The worst part is that his friends actually admire him for it.

There was no escape, I doubt anyone would believe me if I told them. The kind hearted yet emotionless fang abuses his girlfriend. Notice the sarcasm.

Lunch came and went.

I walked home alone since the others were going some place. I made some excuse about being tired.

I got home and was thankful I had no homework. I drag myself to my bed and fell asleep.

-Time skip to afternoon-

I was awoken by knocking. I opened the door.

"Fang, what are you doing here." No one else was home meaning I would need to be careful.

"Hey, aren't you happy to see me?"

"I guess?" It came out more like a question

"Great go get me some soda." I immediately obeyed not wanting to get him angry. I came out of the kitchen with the soda.

"Here." I handed it to him. I was acknowledged by a slap. The drink spilled on the floor breaking the glass when it hit the floor.

"Did I say I wanted ice? Pick up this mess, now!" I flinched as his voice got louder. He turned around and left. I slumped to the floor shaking from fear. I hugged my knees and rested my head on them. What am I supposed to do? This can't go on forever. I crawled over to the mess and started picking up the shattered glass. Not caring whether I got cup. I welcomed the pain. It made me think I was my own person. Don't get the wrong idea. I don't cut myself or any of that stuff. I got a towel and started cleaning the spilled soda. At least we have wooden floors.

I went to my room and decided to sleep for the rest of the day. I took a shower. Letting the warm water run down my body. After twenty minutes I got out. I put on my hoodie and some sweats, being careful not to touch my already hurting bruises. I crawled into bed and got under the sheets. I needed to break up with Fang. The problem was doing it with out getting myself badly injured or killed in the process.


Hope you liked it.
