Mia's P.O.V.

This is definitely how I die.

"Lay over the desk.", dad demanded as I walked into the classroom.

"Can we just talk about this?"

"No. Today, we're gonna learn about cheating and what happens when you do.", he announced, picking up the strap, "Bend over the desk. Don't make me ask again.", he snapped.

"I made a big mistake but you're really angry-"

"I have every right to be!"

"I know but I'm scared."

"Good." Oh. "Do as I said." I put my stuff down and slowly bent over the desk, closing my eyes tightly,

THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP!

"P-Please!", I choked out, "Please st-stop!"

THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP!

"D-Daddy please!" I felt my body start to go limp as I got really dizzy, then everything went black.

"Is she dead?", I heard Maria ask, "Oh god she's dead, isn't she?"

"She's not dead.", dad said, no worry or compassion in his voice. I opened my eyes, now seeing I was on the floor at his feet. "You're lucky that's all you got. You have detention for a week and this had better never happen again. Do you understand me?" I nodded, terrified,

"Ye-Yes sir."

We hadn't talked in four days. Ashton talked to him after two days of me not responding to anything in 'detention' and dad decided I was done with it. The thank you was brief.

"Dinner's ready.", dad said standing in my doorway. I looked up from where I stood, reading my book,

"I'm not hungry. Sorry."

"You need to eat something." I paused,

"Okay." I reluctantly followed him down to the kitchen and sat at the table, almost bursting into tears. He sat a plate with chinese from my favorite restaurant on it in front of me,

"Here kid."

"Thanks.", I whispered. Dinners had begun to feel more like hostage situations. He talked, I tried my best to respond while I picked at my food. Eventually, I'd eaten enough to leave and went back to my room. He followed, pausing in the doorway,

"Where'd you get that?", dad asked, pointing to a picture on the wall. It was of me and him in the kitchen, both laughing about something, in black and white.

"Ashlyn.", I said softly, taking it down.

"Why are you taking it down?" I shrugged,

"I-I have homework. So..." He sighed, nodding,

"I'll be downstairs."

"I fucked up. Really bad.", I heard dad whisper. He was always asleep by now. "I don't know what to do Jake. You're sure? You don't have to." He paused, "Okay. Yeah. I love you too." I started back to my room, but not quick enough as he came out of his, "Why are you still up?", he asked softly.

"Can't sleep. Sorry.", I whispered, going back towards my room.

"Wanna sleep in my room?" I shook my head a little. "Can I do anything to help?"
