The Forgotten Child

14

I got back home at around half 10, which was early enough for me to pack all my stuff up, which brought me to around 3 in the morning. I didn't realise how much crap I had until I started to put it all into boxes. I donated all my old clothes to the charity bin down the road, as well as some blankets and other bits and bobs I wouldn't need.

I was sweating by the end of it all. I had about 6 or so boxes with all my stuff inside it, everything I would ever need. I decided to rent a safety deposit box to put all my extra valubles. I knew my brothers would want to take things away from me if I pissed them off, so I would put all my precious stuff locked away where they wouldn't be able to find it. It's kind of the same thing not being able to have them, but I would rather they be in a box in a safe bank than in the hands of Stone.

It was 4 at night now as I sat in the middle of the living room just sat with my arms wrapped around me. I was extremely nervous to be living with them all, I mean last time didn't go very well, but I was also pretty curious about where they went to after they left. I wouldn't be afraid though, I will be strong and confident.

I checked the bank times and it opened at 8. I decided to clean until 5, until I tried to go to sleep. I couldn't of course, I was way too nervous sleep , overthinking about the future really wakes you up. The bank for a two or so hour drive away, so I got up, chucked some shoes on and headed out to my car. I also had to quit my job today as I knew that Monty will be confused if I just stopped showing up, and it was pretty rude to not tell him.

I headed to my car when William appeared by my side. I jumped when he did as he looked at me with concern. 

"Jesus William, you could of killed me", I said, with a playful smirk as he shakes me off.

"Where are you off to so early?", He asked. I didn't want to tell him, he would tell Stone right away where I went, he would then know where all my goodies were, it was in a bank but I didn't know the power that he had. I had thrown my most valuble things into a small box that was right infront of him, he could snatch it away if he wanted too so I hugged it tighter to my body.

"Just to the charity boxes", I said with a smile. He nodded and headed back to his car. I took the chance to get into my car as quickly as possible and race down the road. I saw him sprinting to the car as I did. I headed to the bank and was there by half 7. I stopped off at the local 24 seven open target and grabbed a sandwhich and a drink. The sunrise was coming up now and it was alot less dark.

I took the sandwhich and headed off to the nearby park as I waited for the bank to open. I sat on a bench looking out to the tiny lake in the centre, eating my sandwhich little bits a time. I didn't even realise the group of boys coming towards me, they were much older, about 18 or 19. It was pretty evident they were drunk as they kept swaying side to side. Maybe they had a night out or something.

"Well, well lookie here", The main one said, slurring his words as he spoke. I started to grab my sandwich and my drink. I had left my box in the car, hidden below the back seat. I went to leave but another two boys surrounded me, making we trapped between the six of them.

"Look just let me leave", I said, wary of all of them as terror flew though my body over and over again, like neon lights. They all laughed when I said it and the main one strolled over to me, putting a hand out to touch my face. 

I swiftly slapped it away in which he stumbled in shock.

"Oh a feisty one, nothing I havent dealt with before", He said with a sadistic smirk, walking towards me as the others laughed. I punched him hard in the nose and ran behind me, in which I was dragged back by my hair and thrown onto the floor. I put my arms over my head as they all kicked me at once.
