The
Mistake.
Chapter
5,
I
quietly shut the door leaving nothing but an empty
house.
I carried my rucksack to the old abandoned
tree house.
My rucksack was hanging from my
back.
My eyes scanned the tree house, Rocco was
sleeping quietly in the corner of the
treehouse.
“Rocco...” my voice trailed, he
looked so cute sleeping.
“W-What?” he said adjusting his
eyes, I kneeled beside him and quickly smiled “What are you
doing?”
“Sleeping here, you know kind of like a
sleep over” I said slinging my sleeping bag onto the other
side of the tree house.
“I’m not a girl and I never asked
for your age” he said giving out a quick
smirk.
“I’m 14” I said rubbing my
hands from the cold.
“I’m 16” he said looking at
me, “I’m not dangerous don’t
worry”
“Wouldn’t care if you were”
I muttered, my parents are dangerous.
“Maybe we should make our way to the
food store” he said standing up, is this all he does every
day?
“But it’s the other side of
town” I mumbled.
“Fine you stay here I’ll
go” he said stepping down onto the step, I looked at me and
crawled to the hole that was in the floor that was to walk
down.
“I knew I’d persuade you”
he said holding out his hand for me to take, “I’ve
got you”
We headed towards the store, once we got
there they was a whole trashcan full of food.
“Grab the chips” Rocco pointed, I
looked at them, and Lay’s the best chips in the world. I
clung onto them. While Rocco got the apples, pears, strawberries,
twizzlers and a lot of other food.
“This should keep us going” he
said smiling.
We headed back for the tree house, till I saw
dad drunk on the streets.
Please don’t recognise
me.
I guess he was on his way to a night
club.
“Hey sweetie wanna hook up?” dad
said leaning into me.
“No thanks” I said pulling my
hood up.
“Get home” dad said, I guess I
let left that one wide open.
“No dad” I said stepping towards
Rocco who smiled.
“Whatever I don’t care” dad
said knocking me into the wall, “No one loves you and never
will”
“Sir, don’t speak to Megan like
that” Rocco said clinging onto the food that was stuffed
under his jacket.
“Don’t speak to me” dad
said holding my wrists tighter, “If you don’t get to
school tomorrow you’ll be sorry”
“Sorry? Me sorry? You should be sorry.
I’m lucky just to be in school. I’m surprised you
haven’t got me smoking weed or drinking alcohol” I
spat.
I saw dad getting angry.
He let me go but he pulled his hand back like
he was going to smack me, just then I heard dad say
something.
“Get off” he said to Rocco, I let
out a smile, “You know you won’t have an house to
come back to”
“I’ve never had a house” I
said, “I don’t even have a proper bed it’s just
a mattress on the floor”
“Anyway I’ve got to hook up with
some girls” dad said pulling out his middle
finger.
Rocco and I walked in
silence.
I knew Rocco’s impression of my dad and
it wasn’t good.
Nothing of my dad was good.
