Harry's POV:

''Okay then.. Bye Harry" she half smiled.

''Whatever..'' I rolled my eyes and continued my journey 'home'.

I sigh. I don't want to go 'home'. Not until dad leaves the house. I don't want to go back to school tomorrow with bruises and scratches all over me again. I'm sick of everyone staring at me like I'm from another planet. Dad blames me because mom left him. She could have taken me with her at least, but then I remember, she didn't want me either.

Dad repairs cars for a living. His job isn't very good because he doesn't get paid enough for both of our lives. I help him sometimes, just to gain more cash than usual. He uses them so he can go to 'business' trips. He goes quite often though and he stays there usually for a good 1 or 2 months, but I know that he travels just to be away from me and I literally am thankful for that.

Oh, no. Dad's car is in the drive way. He is home. I sigh, opening the door and peeking inside. Coast is clear.

I slowly and silently try to make my way up to my room. I see dad asleep on the couch. Great. I walk up the stairs and open my bedroom door. I put my bag quietly down, careful not to wake him. I change in my pj's and head to bed.

I know it's too early but I have nothing else to do and no where to go. I am starving though, but I can't go down now. Dad will wake up and I'll get in trouble if he catches me opening 'his' fridge. I always eat when he is out, meaning every morning and night. I always save up some money for school though. I keep them inside my pillow so dad won't see them, because if he does, he'll take them and he won't give a single shit.

Slowly, a deep sleep takes over me.

I wake up at 6a.m. I take a quick shower because dad doesn't want me to take my showers more than 7 minutes long and also because the water is freezing cold, as always.

This time I took a bit longer in the shower, I hope he doesn't notice.

I wear a white T-shirt and a jacket along with a pair of jeans and my old blue converse, which now look grey. I take some money and my bag and head downstairs. Dad is still home, guess I won't have breakfast today.

I quickly head to the door when he suddenly pushes me and I hit the wall hard. I slide down on the floor as the pain is unbearable at the moment.

''Your shower took more than 7 minutes!'' He yelled in my face. ''How many times do I have to tell you. You worthless piece of shit.'' He kicks my stomach full force, and then my head.

I kept apologizing but he didn't seem to care.

After a while he got tired and left the house. I stayed there for about 15 minutes to gather a bit of strength so I can get up and to make sure he was completely gone.

I looked over at the clock, 6:50a.m. Well, I'm late for school. Might as well have some breakfast before I start my 20 minute walk to school.

Alice's POV:

''Aliceee..'' mom sang, lightly shaking me to wake me up.

''Nooo..'' I turned around. I don't want to get up. ''Five more minutes.''

''No!'' she pulled the covers off of me, her laugh waking me up completely.

''Yes.''

''Wake up you lazy head, you have school!'' she said tickling me. I didn't even budge, she knows I'm not ticklish but I was awake now. I can easily go back to sleep though.

''School can wait.'' The room became silent, thinking she was finally gone I turn around to make sure she really is. But once I do, she grabs my foot and pulls me to the floor.

''Okay dammit I'm up!'' I give in.

''No.. you're actually down right now.''

''Your fault!'' I laughed standing up.

''Now go make us some pancakes and let me get dressed.''

''Roger that!'' She laughed also getting off the floor and finally leaving my bedroom.

I take a quick shower and settle down with a maroon, baggy sweater, again my black leggings and my beige uggs. I let my her loose and mess them around a bit to get shape and volume.

I go downstairs, eat my pancakes and brush my teeth. I kiss mom goodbye and went to my car. Damn traffic, I'm late again. I need to stop the 'being late' habbit. I have a free period now so I don't care. I got out of my car and locked it. I was entering the school gates, noticing that there is no one outside. 'Everyone must be in class' I said to myself.

I then see a guy walking in the hallway. Harry.

I walk towards him. Him ignoring the fact that I was even there. I tapped his shoulder causing him to jump and turn around. First, time I ever made him jump, even unintentionally.

''Oh my god Harry, what happened?!'' his face looked beaten up, blood everywhere.

Notes

This ^ is a filler chapter with Harry's and Alice's POVs. Kind of a cliffhanger too.

In Chapter 4 you should read my notes after you finish reading it because I will give you both Alice's and Harry's details I left out.

xxxxx lots of kisses n' hugs. Enjoy!!
