Chapter Four

                                    

                                          
Savannah's P.O.V:
                          
   I ran. I ran out of the gym, away from that guy. I couldn't help but hug him back. Once he embraced me I couldn't fight for long. I don't know why, I don't know what's wrong with me.
                          
   Everyone was watching. Everyone was looking at me with looks that I can't figure out. Hatred? Disgust? I don't know.
                          
   I ran into the bathroom and splashed my face with water. What came over me? I just got a flashback of my uncle hitting me for the first time. 
                          
   When my parents died, I went to my aunt and uncle because they were the only family we had left. The only family I could go to. 
                          
   The first four weeks he was supportive of me, but then one day it all changed. Like it was just an act to get me comfortable. I remember that day vividly. 
                          
   Why did mom and dad have to be gone. I said I hated them! I'm so horrible! 
                          
   I walked into the house, a horrible smell hitting me like a baseball bat. I looked around me, and saw empty bottles of who knows what all over the place. 
                          
"Your back from your walk you little shit?" I jumped at a booming voice, and saw my uncle tumbling into the room. He had a bottle of beer in his hand and a mean look on his face. 
                          
  Once he got to me, he took another gulp of his beer and wiped his mouth. "You done crying about your parents death yet! Goodness your so annoying." I scrunched up my nose, as his breath wafted in my face. 
                          
  "Y-Your b-breath smells b-bad." I said, and a second later I felt a strong Stinging pain on my cheek. He hit me.
                          
   I looked at my uncle in aw. I never expected him to lay a hand on me, ever.
                          
  "Close your mouth or you might attract flies." He said and with that walked away, taking another swig of his drink, and throwing the can to the side. From them on, that's when slaps, kicks, and punches became my daily routine.

   A tear dropped out of my eye as the flashback came to an end. I heard the creak of a door opening, and I quickly wiped my eyes.
                          
  "Ugh, there you are." A girl with long blonde hair, and brown eyes came in. She's tall, and has long legs. She's pretty, but has a intimidating aura. She stepped in front of me and put her hands on her hips. 
                          
  "Stay away from Leo, he's mine." She said and pointed a finger at me. I just stood there staring at her, not knowing if I should talk or not so I just opted to not. 
                          
  "Hello... Am I clear." She said in a irritated voice. I just nodded and she smirked and sashayed away. 
                          
   What. Just. Happened. I shook my head and just walked out of the bathroom, but right after I did I walked straight into a wall. 
                          
   "Sorry." I heard, and then I realised that walls don't talk. I looked up and saw the one guys friend. I looked at him wide eyed and went to go walk away, but I tripped. 
                          
   I waited to hit the hard floor, but I never did. I felt arms around me, and I opened my eyes. When I looked down I realised that the guy had his arms around my waist.
