"Well if Maggie would get off her fucking ass and do some of the house work around this damn house I wouldn't be so mad at her. Then me and her wouldn't get into all of these fistfights!" My dad yelled at my mother.

"You know what James?! She does more work around this damn place than you ever do! So I wouldn't be talking if I were you!!!" She screamed back.

Why does he always have to blame their problems on me when it's his booze problem? They were in a fight again for like the fifth time this week. I hate it when they fight. I never do a thing wrong though. But of course the only one that notices is my mother. My father I believe does not give a shit about me or my mom.

I heard someone get slapped so I ran down the steps to see what happened. When I get down there I see my mom on the floor holding the left side of her face and she had tears rolling down her cheeks. I gasp and run to her side trying to comfort her just a little.

"What the fuck did you do to my mother?!?!" I screamed at him. He was my "father". I don't believe that at all. He also has no right to hit my mother.

"I did the only thing that would knock some sense into the fucking bitch." he stated bitterly with a smug grin at the end.

"You fucking dick!!" he just keeps slowly pissing me off and I don't know how much longer I can hold back. "Why do you think you have the right to hit your own wife?! And another question; why the fuck are you even still alive?!"

"I believe I have the right because I married her. As for the other question I don't have a fucking clue as to what you are talking about."

"You should. You drink non-stop like every other day and you do drugs, and have overdosed at least twice! I believe you should be dead right about now."

"Oh, that. You really think that?"

"Yes James! I believe I do." I answered putting emphisis on his name. "You're supposed to be my loving father and her caring husband. Not some fucking drug addicted alcoholic!" What happened after those words had left my mouth wasn't the prettiest thing ever. He fucking backhanded me.

I fell to the ground next to my mom in pain. I could feel the hot tears falling down my cheeks and my face stung like hell.

"Do you want to end up like your mother you little whore? I can arrange that if you want."

"Fuck you!" I spat as venomously as I could manage right then. He backhanded me again.

"Why must you girls be so fuckin rude?" he asked shaking his head.

"You know what James?! I'm sick and done with your shit! Me and MY daughter are leaving and you can't do a damn thing about it!"

Wow. My mom sure as hell can scream. I wonder where we're moving to. After she said that my "dad" just scoffed and walked back into the living room probably to get even more fucked up.

I sat up to look at my mom and just had to ask.

"Mom where are we moving to?"

"We're Moving to Huntington Beach because I know how much you want to live there. we're right on the beach too." she replied and smiled at me with a tear stained face.

"Thanks mom. I'll go start packing and then I'll try to say goodbye to everyone." I said as I hugged her.

"Ok Raven. Thanks for taking this so well."

"You're welcome mom. I'm just so tired of him abusing us all the time so U just want to get away."

"I understand honey. Go and Pack. We'll either leave tomarow or Sunday."

"Ok mom. If you need anything I'll be in my room." I said and left before she could reply.

I got to my room and took the suitcases out of my closet that I still had from the first time we moved and started to put some of my more durable stuff at the bottom. Then I put my clothes in with my less durable stuff mixed in to make sure they won't brake. I left out a few outfits because I didn't know how long it would be until we got there. I didn't have very much clothing because a lot of our money was spent on hookers, drugs, booze, and ciggarettes. I know my dad likes the strippers and shit. But the only reason is because my mom doesn't feel right doing that with James anymore. So he finds other ways to do it.

About five minutes later my cellphone starts blasting Totalimmortal by AFI. I got up to look at the caller ID and saw it was one of my best friends, Tony.

"HEY LEE!!" I yelled into the phone.

"I told you about a million times not to call me by my middle name!"

"I know and that's why I do it. I still think it's a bit creepy that we have the same middle name." I added.

"Ya I agree. Anyway, whatchya up to?"

"Nothin' much just packing. My mom finally said that we were leaving James."

"Shweet. Where are you moving to?"

"Huntington Beach, California!!" I screamed into the phone out of pure excitment.

"Awesome!"

"Ya so anyway, I was gonna call you, Megan and Ty when I was done packing."

"Oh, Ok. So do you know exacty when you're leaving?" he asked and it sounded like he was gonna start crying.

"No not yet. Are you gonna cry because I'm leaving?"

"No." he said in the 'I'm-not-so-don't-assume' kinda way.

"Yesh you will. I know you will." I said and started to laugh.

"Ok you got me. anyway I have to go so I'll call you later."

"Ok Tony, I guess I'll talk to you later."

"Yep Bye!"

"Bye."

Damn I'm gonna miss that boy. I'm also gonna miss Megan and Tyler. So what I did was say bye to them. I dialed Ty's phone and three rings later he answered.

"Hey Maggie." he said.

"Hey John."

"I thought I told you not to call me that! I hate my middle name and I like it when you call me Ty!"

"Ok then. Settle your ass down."

"Ok will do. So Why'd you call?"

"Oh Um. I'm moving to California."

"Are You serious?!" he screamed into the phone.

"OW! EAR! And yes, I'm pretty damn serious."

"Sorry and why?"

I swear he's clueless sometimes.

"Are you clueless or something? I'm moving cause we're getting away from James. I hate him so much!"

"Yes I'm clueless and damn, good for you but I'm really gonna miss you."

"I'm gonna miss you too Ty. But I need to go to say bye to Megan."

"Ok I'll talk to you later then. Bye Maggie."

"Bye John." I said with a smirk even though he couldn't see it.

"MAGGIE!!!"

"Sorry Ty. anyway Bye!"

"Bye."

Well that was fun. Now it's Megan's turn. After about half of the Coke in The Coconut song she answered.

"Hey Maggie."

"Hey Megan. You should come over I have some huge news for you."

"Ok I'll be over in like ten."

"ok bye. and don't get lost this time."

"Bye and I won't!"

Wow that was a fun convo. I still can't believe she got lost trying to find my street. That was funny as fuck.
I got some more stuff packed in my other suitcase and about eight minutes later my door bell rang.

"I've got it!" I yelled through the house.

"Hey Megan!"

"Hey Maggie!"

"Come on let's go to my room and I'll tell you." I said as we headed in that direction.

When we got there she was fidgeting and I couldn't take it anymore. "would you stop your fidgeting?"

"Sorry I just want to know what you have to say."

"Ok well here goes. I'm Moving."

"What?"

She looked so lost just sitting there after I said that. "You heard me."

"Why are you moving? Is it cause James?"

"Yes we're leaving him and going to Califonia."

"Oh Ok. I want a hug." so I hugged her and tried to comfort her.

"Megan it's gonna be ok. I swear. I'll call email and all that jazz. I'll try and visit too."

"ok. then I guess it's ok. But I need to get back home."

"Ok, bye Megan."

"Bye Maggie. I'm really gonna miss you."

"I'm really gonna miss you too."

Then she left and I started to cry. I ran to my room and just layed on my bed and cried. I guess I cried myself to sleep because when I woke up it was six in the morning and my mom was sitting on the edge of my bed.

"Hey mom."

"Hey honey. You ready to go?"

"Ya. Can we leave now?" I asked her.

"Yes we can. Your dad is passed out on the floor in the living room so we can go."

"Ok thanks. Are we taking any furniture?"

"We already have that at the new house. i shipped it off the day before yesterday because I was gonna plan on moving anyway."

"oh ok."

"Go get dressed and we can go."

"Ok mom."

I got up and grabbed my Blister Exsists SlipKnoT shirt and a pair of my black jeans and studded belt. I went to go take a shower and get dressed but forgot I had packed all my toiletries. So I went to my mom and asked if I could use hers and went back to my bathroom and took my shower and brushed my teeth. I then did my hair in a ponytail with my bangs in my face off to the left. I did my makeup that consisted of dark blue eyeshadow with some light blue lightly around it, light blue eyeliner on the bottom, a light pink lip gloss and just a little blush.
