MY name is Nico Jackson I am 15 I am differen than everyone else I know it that why everyone treated me like a outsider. The kids at school would pick on me some would beat me up not much now that I am in high school. At home my mom is always gone and my father likes to drink and do drags. My house is a two story run down house two bedroom and bathroom it have a basement with a bathroom that my mom had put in. The yard is overgrown and need to be cut. There is a picket fence around the yard with holes in it that need to be replace the porch step are cracked so if I don't watch what I am doing I'll fall through, there are shingles that are falling down into the ground, the paint need to be repainted it is chipping and cracked as I frist walk into the house I can see the living room my mom have pictures of us on the walls. The wooden have wear and tears in them and spots with holes in them. They make creaking sound when I step on a certain spot I got good at knowing with sports not to step on in order to sneak around the house and move press my father without waking him up because all the time I gotting a beating. The front door would squeak so I would use the window to go outside. Mom keep the house nest and tidy but you'll find a few beer cans here and there,so newspapers in the living room and beer cans on the coffee table. My room was in the basement I like it is nice and dark, cold I like the quiet and the darkness. The basement have a leaky pipes, it smell like dampness, I have a black Veil Brides poster on the wall,books of my homework on the floor, my mattress and box springs are on concrete blocks, my blankets and sheets are black silk that my mom got me for 14 birthday. Underneath my bed have a black rug that cover half of the basement. My radio in the corner of the basement by my bed. In my room I can let my gurad down it is my safe haven a safe place I can go when my father can't get me. I don't have friends I never had a girlfriend before hell I never had sex before . It not that I don't like girls. It just that I think they are to stack up I have not found one didn't look theirs nose down at me.
Nico! Where are you worthless!
I was doing my homework on my floor when my father started again. I know what was going to happen next I look at my door making sure I had it locked. I didn't want my father getting down here not again. The last time my father almost killed me, my father broke four of my ribs and took a whip to my back damn near took all the skin off my back, and blacken my eye and bloody my lip. Every since that happened I have been working out but it took only two day before I was fully healed again.
Nico! Open the fucking door! Right now!
The pounding started on my door I know it will go on for a hour before my father pass out. Before I had the lock on my door I would stay in the wood till my father pass out. When it got quiet again I let out the air that I have been holding.
