So sorry. I wrote the chapter but it got deleted. Sorry. Unto the chapter.
Amu's POV
I heard the front door slam shut so either my dad is leaving again or I'm getting a beating. Please be gone, please be gone, please! Apparently the universe is deciding to hate me today 'cause as soon as I finish my little prayer, I hear heavy footsteps going up the stairs. They continued until the reach my door and my door was slammed opened. He has a thing for slamming doors, huh?
"Where the fuck were you today when I got home from work you worthless piece of shit?!" he screams as soon as he enters the room.
"I- uh- my teacher made me stay after school to help out kids with their homework a and she let me go late and w- when I was walking back home t- there was construction where I usually walk back home s- so I had to take the long way home so I got delay a little bit," I squeaked out as he started walking towards me.
"I don't give a fuck if your teacher tells you to stay late you fucking come home on time you little bitch!" he screamed as he slapped me across the face so hard it sent me flying across the room. He started walking towards me and when he got in front of me, he started kicking my sides and my stomach. Then he kneeled down and started punching my whole body.
"This *punch* is *punch* what *punch* you get for killing your mother! *punch* *kick*" he says while beating me up. I turn over and cough up some blood and as I do so, he undoes his belt and starts whipping me with his belt.
"If you fucking scream I will make it longer you whore." he said after I almost screamed. This goes on for about an hour. When he leaves, I drag my body to my bathroom and get out the first aid kit. I clean up the wounds on my back and any other cut in my body. How much longer am I going to have to suffer this?
The Next Morning
Still Amu's POV
I wake up at 6:00 am like very morning. When I get out of bed, I almost scream as pain erupts throughout my whole body. I slowly walk to my bathroom and look at myself in the mirror. My face is fine since he makes sure none of my wounds are noticeable. The last thing he needs is people getting suspicious of what happens at home. My body is a whole other story though. My arms and legs are full with bruises and cuts. I lift up my shirt and see a humongous bruise on my rib that's a mixture of blue, purple, and black. I turn to see my back and see multiple lashes on my back. I undress myself and turn on my water.
When I finished showering, I get ready and cover any noticeable bruises with concealer. I leave my hair down and go downstairs. I get my backpack and shoes and go outside. I put on my facade I start walking to school.
AT SCHOOL
When I get to school, I see Tsukiyomi and Utau arriving to school. Did I mention they're twins? Cause they are, sadly.
"Hey Amu! Come over here!" Utau yelled as soon as she saw me
I start walking towards Tsukiyomi and Utau.
"Why are you limping" Tsukiyomi asked monotonous. Limping? I'm limping?! Fuuuuuuugde!
"Oh uhhh I fell from my s-stairs last n-night and I s-sprained my a-ankle."
Smooth Amu real smooth
Shaddup conscience!
"Hm okay" Tsukiyomi replied
Ikuto's POV
"Do I owe you something?" she asked as soon as she saw me staring at her. I guess I can tease her cause why not?
"Ya you owe me a kiss" I told her and I saw her cheeks turn a slight shade of pink. I leaned my head closer to hers and her blushed darkened. I guess she figured out what was happening because she pushed my away gently.
"In your dreams, Cat-Boy" she said turning her head, avoiding my gaze.
"Cat-Boy? Why Cat-Boy?" I asked laughing
"Because you just remind me of a cat. You're lazy and cat-looking? I don't know you just remind me of a cat."
"okay. By the way, you didn't really fall down the stairs did you?" I saw her tense up so quickly that I would've missed it if I had blinked.
"W-what are you talking about? I did f-fall down the stairs. Don't believe me not my p-problem." She said. It's so obvious. The stuttering and the noticeable nervousness. Also she tensed up. She's so easy to read.
I know her story is fake and I'm determined to find out the truth.
Amu's POV
Shiiiiiiiit! please don't try to find anything out, pleeeeease
Aaaaaand cut! That's a wrap guys. Sorry for the late update but I was so busy.
