(Tw: abusive parents)
"So, then, while I'm sitting there, just comforting his old ass, Jerry started talking about this mission, and, out of the blue, he said I was pretty enough for the mission-which caught me hella off guard, first of all. When I went on the mission in Japan, well, in Japan, the area where I was undercover they had these little machines with prizes in them, which was where I got that, what was it called?... Daon Gawan Rompa? Or something, like that, the plushie of that character you said you liked. But anyway, there was so much more than sex trafficking with this company, Kat! Holy shit there was so so much worse than that-"
T h u d
Kat's eyes widened in pure fear.
"Lee."
It was 8:10 pm in the hotel the Chapman kids were at, the wind was blowing hard against the window, and the TV was blasting with some nature documentary that Megan demanded she wanted to watch, which was annoying to Lee. Marc and Tony were already in bed, sound asleep, and Lee had just got out of a nice, steamy shower, his red hair was over his face, he was well cleaned, towel around his amazing waist, and he was sitting down having a FaceTime call with his girlfriend, Katherina, who was so tired after being on the phone with him for three hours, while Megan took her shower.
On her end, Kat was in her room, enjoying a warm glass of water, in her pajamas Lee bought her for her birthday, the nice cotton ones with tiny roses on them, her feet swinging as her boyfriend kept talking about his mission and how weird Jerry was being, her room was bright pink, with pictures of her and her parents at many school events, every recital, every hosting with her maids.
Her bed was a lighter pink with stuffed plushes near her pillows, and even her bed was a little messy, being that the sheets were everywhere, her pink/blonde hair down that went past her somewhat big chest, but long kinda like a Rapunzel kinda way, her face was tired, but she was still beautiful. She was just happy her boyfriend was calling her, his face was so red, but he was still her hot boyfriend all of her friends were envious over. Things were great, her eyes were sleepy, thinking about all of the fun things that were going to happen once Lee visited her in the UK. That was, well that was, until she heard…The noise.
The footsteps.
The stairs were shaking.
The 2nd floor, just now, right now, felt…off.
She's coming upstairs.
The aura in her room was dark as she could feel the presence approaching her room, its negativity and anger grew more and more as it reached closer to Kat's room.
"Yeah, what goo-"
"KATHERINA ANNA-MARIE VONBARSTEIN"
Her heart stopped cold. Her eyes were dead as the sound of that voice. She could feel her presence. The long fingernails. The nose of a narcissist. The face of a nice, sweet lady, but inside was a cold, mean spirit; a woman who vows only her self-esteem.
The egregious, ogre-like perfume that wreaked of rich and classic masked out the whole room, as the door swung open, causing a loud BOOM even startling Lee, shaking the pictures on the wall to where one fell down, seeing the fear in Kat's eyes, her face went pale eyes were going back and forth trying to figure out if the woman that was coming hin her room needed to hurt her, as she saw Lee's face white, the woman stomping her way over to the young teen, but within a matter of seconds it was too late, as Kat felt a pair of well-moisturized hands touch her small-shoulder, and yet somehow, somehow, the woman was swinging Kat backwards out of the seat, flinging the 15-year-old girl into the other side of the room causing a reaction of the desktop Kat was using to move to have a small giggle.
Kat was then crashed into the set of vintage books, stuffed teddy bears, and laundry behind her, aloud thud escaped her; Kat was laying on the ground, completely twisted, as her body was bruised and ached with rage as her body could barely get any air inside, tears flowing from her soft skin, and the woman, who just attacked Kat, grabbed the phone to see who Kat was speaking to.
The woman had dark hair in a long updo and was sporting a wealthy-looking suit of the color champagne and her necklace was tough around her smooth neck, her rolled chubby body making it looking it was found in a dumpster.
But the worst of it; she was...weirdly….attractive; From her bright eyes that made her seem happy and confident in herself, her family, and others, to the strange aura that she had, that made her seem so…likable; to her eyeliner, which was to the gods, her cheeks were of a spring peach, and her red lipstick smeared from her plump mouth.
Lee stared in horror, while the woman yelled at Kat to "sit her weird wonky legged-bitch-ass down somewhere" as she roared with the alcohol on her tongue towards the teen girl, her wrinkles looking in annoyance at the boy on Kat's phone. Her annoyed looked turned into a cocky grin once she took a good at Lee.
"HMMM, you must be Lee, the boy who's in a relationship with my daughter, is that correct?"
"Y-Yes, I am."
"Oh, don't be so nervous around me, pretty boy, you and me are family, so how about we get to know one another, shall we?"
"Well let me introduce myself, shall we. My name is Amelia VonBarstein, Katherina's mother, that bitch of my daughter must've been bother you while your just having a peaceful, wonderful summer vacation in Miami, I heard. I just love the warm sunny skies, and the beaches are amazing and the people, don't even get me started on the people. Are you having fun, young man?"
"Y-Y-ees, m-ma-aam."
Lee stat in pure fear, watching as this woman was having a relatively normal conversation with the woman who just WWE styled threw his girlfriend across her own room. Kat sat up rubbing her arm, spitting out some blood from her, her face was red, but her anger was arouse, Kat stuggled to get up as she stumbled to her mother about 15 feet away from her.
"You selfish, orge-bulid wide building, long nosed lying ass looking ass bitch! Dont you touch my phone!" Kat screamed, running to her mother, her body was wobbling, but Kat used up all her strength to leap towards the older woman;ans she successed as she was now jumping on top of her, reaching for the phone as Lee's fear was rising in more as Kat and her mother were fighting over the phone; the phone eventually dropping to the ground, the side showing that Kat was getting dragged by her pink hair, bruises shown on her small body, crying out as her mother kept punching her in the face, Kat was able to get her mother on her back as Kat was now punching her mother in the face, swinging with all of her might, draggin her to other sides of the room and kept punching her, repeating as her mother was now on top of Kat, punching and kicking her untill her father and brother ran upstairs, separating the two women, which was enough for lee to end the phone call right then and there.
It took a long long time for Lee to even take a breath in, as he raised his hand to see that he was shaking, his heart beating fast. His eyes were so..red.
What the fuck?
What the fuck.
Lee just started at the phone call, the phone showing the call logs, and Lee just sat there, in pure silence; the 16 year was confused, scared, angry, and mostly worried for Kat, Kat had barely mentioned her parents before; this must be the reason why, and he felt so so fucking bad.
Imagine having to fight with your mother like that.
He had to call her later.
"Hey, you ok, how was your call with Kat?" Megan asked, walking towards her brother, as she was putting on her shirt, noticing his silence.
Lee just turned to her, staring at her with fear in his eyes, his body shaking, but trying to remain as calm as possible, he said "I'm fine. Kat's just making fun of me, and we had a bit of a roasting battle, im so happy me and her are together. I'm going to bed now, good night Megs, love you."
Lee just, as calmly as he can, plugged his phone in, the notification popping up, showing on his phone, a screenshot of him and kat on a FaceTime together, doing a heart sign with their hands, Kat was wearing his sweatshirt, Lee in a black tank top, it was their 4 mouth anniversity when he took that screenshot.
He walked to his bed, still shaking his body.
He needed to call her when he woke up so he made sure to send her a text asking her to text him back when she's ok.
It was late, way too late, at the hotel Tami and Caleigh were at right now, seeing how everyone's eyes were sore and legs were numb from running to the car up to the nearest hotel for shelter. It was 8:30 pm, and Tami was rolling on her bed, staking Lee's Instagram, and scrolling through the endless selfies, and football pictures. Pictures with Kat. The pictures with Kat. Kat. It was always her in those damn pictures.
Their hotel room was being shared with Caleigh's sister, Caliasha, who was alittle older than the other two girls. The bedroom was a harsh dark blue, with a yellow bedsheet. White walls with Tami, Caleigh, and Caliasha's bags, near the door, pizza and wings were on the table that was right next to the TV and table, a giant bottle of water, and chicken caser salad were filling the room aura, as all three teen girls were getting ready for bed.
The TV was bright and loud, with some Spanish drama, but Tami wasn't listening. Her blonde hair was damp, wearing a baggy t-shirt, and some Hello Kitty pants, her eyes were sore and red from swimming in the giant pool a few hours ago. The night was…so..dark, the stars were showing up, the wind was blowing away in a softer, gentler manner, and Caleigh was just finishing up her shower, while she and Caliasha talked.
"So, about this Lee guy, what's he like?"
"Where do I even begin;Tall, gorgeous, total charmer, he has his way with women. He knows what type of guy he is. Smart. Out of my league. Waaaayyy too hot for me."
"Out of YOUR league!?" Caliasha yelled. Tami raised her eyebrow.
"He has a girlfriend, she's prettier than me and she's the daughter of a scientist. I can't compete."
"Yes, and? She sounds boring."
"I'm not a fucking homewrecker, I'm not a hoe."
Caliasha laughed at that statement from Tami. Tami raised an eyebrow.
"Caliasha, listen, I'm not like you. Please. I don't wake up in the morning, hoping to go for a nice drive around my neighborhood, only to find my car with the word "WHORE" all over it with the windows bashed in. I throw words and ruin reputations, not hands."
Caliasha burst out with a wild laugh, throwing her dirty towel at Tami, she gasped as Tami threw the towel back, chasing her older cousin around the room.
