Hailey And Jay In Highschool

Skiing with the Halsteads

First a little Backstory, Jay and hailey have been dating for 6 months, and all Jay knew about her relationship with her family was that they didn't get along great

------Jays POV-----
"Hailey, wait up," I called, and she turned around and then went over to the side of the hallway

"Hey, what's up?" She asked

"Well, my dads got a all inclusive pass to a ski resort in 2 weeks, and my mom doesn't want to go. Do you want to come with instead?"

"Umm wow, yeah, I'd love to. Is it just for a day or something?"

"No, it will be for a week well Friday night to Thursday morning, but you wouldn't have to pay for anything, and my parents said as long as it's ok with yours you can come"

"Ok. I'll ask my parents when I get home if I can go and I'll let you know what they say"

"If you don't actually want to, it's totally fine. You don't have too" I said

"No, I do, I'm sorry, it's just been a long day,"

"Yeah, I know, but only one more class left. You can do it, hailey,"

"Yeah, I know, ok, we've got to get to class. We're gonna be late," she said

"K, I'll see you later. Love you,"

"Love you too,"

I don't know what's going on with her, but she's seemed really down today, and at lunch, I noticed a bruise on her neck, but when I asked her about it, she panicked

---------Haileys POV--------
I walked home and took a deep breath before opening the front door only to see my dad in his normal spot passed out on the couch with beer bottles littering the floor. I quickly and quietly cleaned them up and started dinner in the crock pot for later so when my mom gets home from work, dinner is ready, and I'll be able to ask about going skiing with Jay

I was really hoping my dad would stay asleep long enough for me to start my homework, but he never did

"HEY WHY DONT I HAVE A NEW BEER SITTING NEXT TO ME YOU KNEW I WAS OUT" he started screaming and when I walked into the kitchen to get him one he got up and started hitting me with his belt calling me names at this point I've learned not to listen and when he's done just say sorry

Finally, my mom got home, and my dad was in the living room watching the Jazz game.

"Hey mom, I have a question."

"Yeah, what's going on?"

"Well Jay's family invited me to go skiing with them, now before you say no it won't cost you anything his dad got a free pass from work and Jay's mom doesn't want to go" I told her when we would go and that when we would leave

"Yeah, that's fine, but you'd better clean the house before you go cause I don't want to do it, and you know your father's not going too. That's your job."

"Ok, mom, thank you,"

I ran to my room and called Jay, hoping he'd pick up

"Hey, what'd they say?" he asked

"They said yes! I can go!" I replied excitedly

"Oh, that's great, my dad is going to take us to get get sized for our ski suits and skis tomorrow. Can you come with?"

"Yeah, I'm sure I can. What time?"

"We can pick you up at 11 30 does that work?"

"Yeah, sounds great. I can't wait,"
