Megan had been going through a lot of changes lately. She wasn't even acting like herself anymore. And it definetely scared her, but she didn't resist those changes either. Her clothes, attitude, the alcohol and smoking. It just wasn't her at all. And Megan knew it. And a part of her wanted it to all stop. But the other part welcomed the changes with opened arms.
Walking into the Media Center wearing a black skirt and a red halter top, she sat at a computer in the far back of the room. Signing onto IM, Megan grinned, noticing a guy on that she had been talking to on the internet. Of course, she probably wouldn't go making the mistake again of meeting the guy. She talked to him for a few minutes, before she heard footsteps behind her and quickly signed out.

Mallory wasn't the same since Matthew got ahold of her again. And now that her boyfriend was gone, she didn't know what she was doing. She pushed her glasses up her nose as she went in the media center. She needed to work on her family honor project. Doing work always put her in the zone. When she saw Megan, she froze. Megan was the one girl who always understood everything. Mostly because of all they had been through together "hey" she said quietly, sitting down at a computer.

Megan looked up at Mallory, and smiled sweetly. "Hey." Maybe she should tell her best friend. The fact that she was scared, terrified in fact. That these changes were taking over. That she didn't want them two but they just kept happening. Mallory would understand, right? The two had ben through sooo much together since they were little. "How are you?"

Mallory shrugged, not answering. She didn't know how to answer. Was she supposed to be perfect? She wasn't. Even though everyone thought of her as the perfect nerdy girl who never did anything wrong. Even her dad thought of her that way sometimes. She knew better. Instead of answering her best friend, she simply pulled out her binder and opened it

Megan looked away from her friend, and down at the keyboard, but she didn't touch it. Why was it so hard to talk to her BFF? Or to admit that she wasn't perfect either? That something was seriously wrong? Even she knew what she had been doing was horrible, that she should just quick. She never spoke the truth...to anyone...but she was fearing that she was becoming more like her abusive father. And it scared her.

Mallory looked at her and swallowed "does....does Aidan like his new home?" she asked quietly, her voice shaky. Mentioning Aidan probably wasn't the best thing to do, since it made her want to cry.

Aidan. Megan missed her brother terribly. He was the only one in her family who she could really talk to, who understood her fear. Megan shrugged. "I-don't know. I haven't gotten to talk to him." she spoke softly.

Mallory nodded "right. Sorry" she looked down and felt the tears coming on "excuse me" she said politely before standing up and going out of the room

Why did things seem so different between Mallory and Megan? They were suppose to be best friends. Weren't they? They went through everything together. Megan grabbed her bag and followed Mallory. "Mal, are you okay?"

Mallory gave a shaky smile "oh, yeah!" she said, her voice quivering "I'm great! Why wouldn't I be? My boyfriend is finally getting the space he needed and I-apparently the only time I get some parenting is when Matthew is around and lucky me, he's back!" she blinked back her tears and gave two thumbs up "I'm super"

"Matthew-Matthews back?" Megan bit her bottom lip, remember when her and Mallory were pretty young. She shook her head. "How-why?" She just couldn't believe it. She leaned against the wall.

Mallory shook her head "he picked me up from Mrs. Cameron's house. Said he'd kill me if I told dad again" she shrugged "I'll be fine. I always have been." she looked up at the clock "I should go before I get into trouble"

Megan shook her head. "No. You can't let him get away with this. I-I won't-won't let him." But Megan didn't know what she could possibly do. She was afraid of Matthew. And that was the one little detail that her parents didn't know about her past.

"between him and that other guy, you'd be outnumbered. Look, we always said we'd get away, didn't we? You're living the dream. Be glad. You don't have to worry about me. We both know how tough I can be"

Megan looked down at the ground. "Mal, believe me, I'm not lucky. I'm just-a pathetic loser." She looked back up, tears in her eyes. "A couple weeks ago, my dad took me. It was horrible. I-that night, I was gonna die, and-if dad hadn't found where I was, I wouldn't be here." She bit her bottom lip. "Things feel so out of control. I don't even feel like-myself anymore."
