Chapter 1
Amy's pov.
My boyfriend and I were at a party for his company. He had been at the bar drinking wiskey on ice most of the night. Which means it's going to be a long night. That's when he walked over to me, grabbing me by the wrist and pulling me to a room where no one else was.
Once we got to the room, I began to panick. He starts yelling at me saying,"what do you think you are doing. You are a good for nothing girlfriend. I can't even brag to you to my friends because of how ugly you are." Next thing I know, I feel a terrible pain in my stomach. Which was caused by him punching me a few times in the stomach.
After a few deep breaths, I ask," Why do you bring me to your events?" Since all you do is make it awfully clear, you want nothing to do with me. If I am being honest, I don't know why I am still with you. You are not the man I had feelings for, the man that I had fallen in love with. Nowadays, you are nothing but a stranger to me."
I could tell by the ice-cold look in his eye that he didn't like my response. When he then starts yelling again, " All you do is use me for my money. You can't even keep a job. Don't think that I don't know that you are sleeping around with all of these other guys. Will I am at earning money."
I then feel his hand slam across my face, causing my lip to bleed. A second later, another slap lands on my face. Then, a punch to the stomach again and another. I managed to say, " How can you say that. I don't work since you didn’t want me to. By now, you should know I only care about you." As I am trying to speak, I feel myself start to fall into the darkness.
I don't know how long I was out for or when the punches had stopped coming. I stand up as a sudden pain goes through my body, making me not want to move, just sit down and cry.
After a few minutes, I make my way of the building and get a taxi. I asked the drive to take me to the apartment building on East Street. After about a five minute drive, we arrive. I get out and pay the drive and thank him.
Once I head to the apartment, I unlock the door and head in. I already knew that Jake would be at work. What I didn't plan was to see a girls high heels by the door and a coat hanging on the back of a chair. I started looking around when I was Jake's besroom door, and to my surprise, it was one of the girls from the party he had introduced me to.
