Alicia POV


I break free of all the students milling around in the hallways of the school thinking my Father is going to blow a gasket when he finds out my grades, the school day officially over laughter and voices surrounded me as I head outside to see Isaac already waiting for me with his bike hugging my books close to my chest as I walk to him.

tolday was the same as any other school day Isaac brought me to school then left for high school went to all my classes was Ignored by everyone, people think I don't exist but to tell you the truth I don't mind it,

when I was finally in front of him he smiled at me "How was you day?" He asked taking my books putting them in his backpack

"Fine," I said in a bored tone

"What happened?" He asked

I looked at him confused,

"The look on you face says it all" he said

"Sigh what does it matter?" I said

"Did someone say something to you?" He asked

"My teacher he's just a jerk," I said

Isaac's face hardens

"What did he say?" He asked

"What does it matter you can't do anything anyway," I said

"Come on lets get home," Isaac mumbles

I nodded hopping on the handlebars as he starts to pedal away from the school

"you doing lacrosse this year again?" I asked

"Yeah," Isaac said "First practice is tomorrow," He said

"I'll be there," I said shutting my eyes as the wind blows through my sandy hair

"Don't push it Alice," Isaac said

his nick name for me he always calls me his little Alice from wonderland

"I'll just tell him I have a project he won't know the difference," I said

"Just don't say anything he might not even realize that you are leaving early with me," Isaac said pedaling faster

I clutch the bars in my hands tighter as our house comes into view after a few minutes of silence unfortunately dad's old car is parked in the driveway giving us a warning to behave Isaac pedals up the driveway and I hop off when he slows down enough he drops the bike in the grass

"I'll go first," Isaac gently grabs my wrist and pulls me behind him

He hesitantly pushes open the front door one hand behind him to keep me in a close distance I can feel myself shaking Isaac leads the way into our house checking all directions that dad could come from we can never tell what kind of a mood he is in when we come home from school I shut the door behind me with a soft click

we make our way to the stairs and stop when we hear his voice "How was school?"

my fingers tighten around Isaac's wrist out of reflex I was shaking he terrifies me Isaac takes my hand in his firmly we follow his voice into the kitchen where he is chopping an onion for dinner my eyes dart to the large knife in his hand,

"It was good I got a B on my economics quiz" Isaac moves our hands out of sight we can't show we are afraid

Dad nods flicking his eyes over to me, "What about you Licia?" He chops the onion faster

I inhale sharply "I-It was good," I said

"you look a little pale," Dad waves the knife in our direction "Are you feeling alright sweetheart?" He said

as soon as the nickname left his mouth Isaac yanks me slightly behind him Nicknames are never good he only calls me sweetheart when something bad is coming my way, my heart was beating erratically I squeeze Isaac's hand even tighter,

"I-I'm just T-Tired," I said

Dad slides the chopped onions into a pot on the stove "Don't forget you got graveyard duty tonight Isaac and Licia you have errands to run for me remember," Dad said

"We know," Isaac answers for us

"We're just going to do our homework before dinner," Isaac said

my throat constricts making it harder for me to breath I can't stay down here much longer Isaac glances down at me my panicked expression hidden behind my fake stoneless expression he senses my almost panic attack,

"Off you go then," Dad nods towards upstairs "Dinner will be ready in an hour," He said

Isaac spins on his heel dragging me back towards the stairs our sneakers pound against the wood stairs and I nearly run into Isaac a couple times we go straight to his room he drops his backpack to the ground after shutting the door I start to shake violently, Isaac wraps his arms around me

"Breathe," He said holding my head against his chest "Everything will be okay I'm not going to let him hurt you he can't I have graveyard shift and you have errands and you're gonna meet up with me after," He said

I vigorously shake my head "H-He called me S-Sweetheart you know w-what that means" I said gasping for air

"Shh" Isaac said as he petted my hair as I listened to his heart beat

"He's not going to lay a finger on you," He said

"The l-last time he did that I-I ended up in the f-freezer" My hands start to shake in fear I can't breathe my throat is closing off my airways

he slides us both to the floor my head pressed against his chest he starts to hum as I listen to his heartbeat and the humming I start to calm down

we sit like that for a while until we hear a quick knock on the door

"Dinner's done" Dad said
