Awwe man!! I haven't updated in forever!! Here's a one for ya now though(:

Clementine's Pov

"So where are we going?" I asked justin as we got into the car.

"Oh somewhere. You'll see.."

We drove in silence, to the place, and I realized quickly how I missed this.
Utter silence. But the good kind. The kind you knew, the person on the other side wasn't actually going to attack you or bleed curses. Just this. Comfortable silence.


I breathed out, in utter relief, as Justin turned up the radio with his thumb.
An upbeat song filled the speakers, and I danced along like crazy.
It was may moment to be a normal kid, and I was so up for it.

We both danced and sang along, with the wind whirling around beside us.
For the time-being my problema melted away. If only if just then.

It was amazing to be carefree. And I wished I could always feel this way.

"We're here! " Justin cried cheerfully.

I turned to look where exactly "here" was, but there was nothing! It was just an abandoned warehouse or something.

"And what exactly is "here"? " I asked curiously.

"Just come on!"

I was dragged inside the building. My curiousiry wa at full throttle, and I felt that fire to explore like a little kid would.

Once inside, justin pulled me through an opening inside.

There was a small swamp, and lots of trees.

We followed through the brush and trees for a few minutes, and finally we reached somewhere.

"Wait! Close your eyes!"

"What?"
"Close your eyes!"

I closed my eyes. I felt him leading me through some more brush, then he stopped me abruptly.

"Okay.. take a look."

I opened my eyes and looked around. It was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

A huge, blue, crystal- clear lake sat in the middle of my field of vision.
Big trees grew all around it.
And to one side, a number of the most beautiful flowers bloomed around it.

A huge sycamore tree was growing directly in front of it. It was on a small hill. There were other smaller trees growing beside it, their leaves brown and red falling.

But this tree was magnificent.
It's leaves were green, and its trunk fair and wide.

I ran for the tree first, already climbing its trunk and its mighty branches.
Justin stood at the foot of it, chuckling, as I climbed higher and higher.

"Come on up! You'll love it!" I called down.

Immediately, he climbed its trunk and was up beside me.
Just then it felt like it was just him and me against the world.
And not Lucas.

I wasn't made to put up with his ****. I wasn't made to take it.
But yet I stayed. Why?

I looked over at Justin who smirked at me.
I wish I was with him.
How much easier would things be, if only life were that fair?

Clementine's POV

I breathed in deeply, breathing in fresh air. The world from here, seemed almost manageble somehow.
it was incredible.

As we both stared at the world below, I suddenly got a call.

I picked up the phone, and saw LUCAS.

the name flashed across the screen. And my stomach turned in knots.

"Justin, I um, have to go! It's getting late..."

"Justin, saw the caller ID, and frowned.

"Nuh, uh. My mom called yours, and you're staying with me until tommarrow. If its about that jerk, I don't wanna hear it. Infact, He took my phone and threw it at the ground, it broke in a million pieces.

I was pretty mad about my phone, but htere was something relieveing about that.

"JUSTIN! What was that for?"

"Luce, calm down, i'll get you a new one, with a new number. So relax, he won't find you here."

I gulped in some air.

Justin only knew the surface of it, he didn't know about the hundreds of bruises, and he certainly didn't know how much I wanted to get away but always manged to stay out of fear.

I wish I could come completely clean..

It was 3 AM, and I felt like getting fresh air. I poked my head out from the door and I stepped out closing the door behind me.
it was still, quiet and the bright crystal moon shone above.

I walked out onto the sidewalk, finally taking a breath from the world.
As I walked, I sang to myself, a song I had heard on the radio.

"Eveday it will rain.."

Suddenly, two strong hands gripped me, and the voice to those hands told me not to move.
I froze.

Lucas.

"Oh Clementine,if you only knew the freakin trouble you're in." His voice was low, almost a growl as he directed me to his crimson colored truck.
He pushed me into the seat, taping my mouth, and locking the door.

He got into the driver's seat, and stepped on the gas. Only he didnt take me home.
he kept driving.

We ended up at his apartment.
Where he lived al alone. Chills hit my body, and I knew, this would be the worse thing ever.

He got out, unlocked the door, and took hold of me, diging his sharp nails into the bores of my shoulders.

I felt the got tears, but I didnt bother to scream. That would make it worse.


He pushed me inside, and sharply pulled the tape from my mouth.

It bloody stung, and I almost cursed out loud.
He took a step foreward, and slapped me, bitterly.
I felt the skin burning from this contact.
Then instead of hitting me again, he got close to my face and shouted, "Don't you ever, EVER, freakin' leave me for him or anyone again. Do you hear me?


You'll get worse."


Then he undid his belt and all hell btoke loose.

wow, thats intense! update!
