Stephanie Tanner came downstairs to find her family eating breakfast at the table.

"Morning Steph." Danny said.

"Morning's off." She mumbled and headed for the door.

"Something wrong Steph?" Becky asked.

"It's monday morning." She stated. "Well look, Mike told me to meet him in front of the school so Im gonna leave a little early if that's okay?"

"You should have a little something to eat before you go." Danny said. "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day."

"So is lunch and dinner." Michelle added.

"She has a point, dad." Stephanie said. "But, I am a little hungy." She grabbed an apple, waved goodbye to her family and left.

"You know, Steph has been seeing more and more of that guy everyday." Danny said.

"Danny, don't worry. She's old enough to make her own decisions. She's a smart girl. And you worry to much." Jesse said.

"I just want what's best for her."

"We all do." Joey added.

When Stephanie arrived in front of the school Mike was there waiting for her.

"Where the hell have you been?" He asked.

"What do you mean?"

"You're late."

"You didn't exactly tell me what time you wanted to meet." Right then Mike gave her a good slap across the face. She stepped back, crying and held her face where it burned.

"I' ve told you once and I don't want to have to tell you again. I don't want you talking back to me. Got it?" Mike asked. When Stephanie didn't answer he took his hand and placed it under her chin, turning her face so their eyes met. "Do you understand?"

"Y..yes." She said quietly.

"Good." Mike went inside the building, leaving Stephanie there hurt and terrified.

After school let out, Stephanie went to her locker and put her books away. Mike came up behind her and put his arms around her waist, giving her a soft kiss on the cheek. She smiled and turned to face him.

"Babe, Im sorry about earlier. I was mad and I guess I took it out on you. I love you so much. You're my everything." He told her.

Stephanie was confused. One minute he was so nice and sweet. And the next minute he could be so controlling. And that scared her. Stephanie thought this was her one true love. She had been with him for only 1 month, and he had been so good to her. But things changed...he changed. And Stephanie didn't know how to react to his sudden change in mood.

"Umm...Mike--" Stephanie began.

"Steph, please. Just know when I say that I love you, it's for real.

"Okay. I love you too."

"Perfect. So are we still on for tonight?"

"Yeah, of course."

"Okay. I'll pick you up at 7."

"I'll be waiting." Stephanie said. But somehow...she had a bad feeling. She didn't want to go. But if she didn't go, something bad would happen. She knew it.

When Stephanie walked through the door of her home, all she could think about was that morning. She dumped her backpack on the floor and opened up the fridge to get a soda.

"Stephanie...are you okay." Michelle asked.

"Yeah, Michelle. Im fine."

"Really? Cause you dont seem fine."

"Im fine, Michelle. Now leave me alone!"

"What's going on?" Jesse asked.

"Nothing. Where's dad?"

"Your dad and Becky have to work late. Is everything okay Steph? Stephanie?"

"Wha- Yeah...everything is fine. Um, I have a date tonight with Mike. He's picking me up around 7." Stephanie said and went upstairs.

Later that day, the family was gathered at the table eating supper. Stephanie shoved some food around on her plate, resting her face on her hand. She had her eyes fixed on her plate, as if she was in fear or wonder. And that's exactly what she was in. fear and wonder.

"Steph, arn't you hungry?" Her father asked.

"Um... Mike and I are probably going to go out somewhere and eat." She lied.

"I don't want you to stay out to late, it's a school night." Suddenly Mike pulled up to the front of the house and beeped his horn.

Stephanie stood up quickly. "That's him I have to go." She walked out of the room, hoping she wouldn't dissapoint Mike.

"You be careful!" Danny yelled after her.

"I will, dad!"

Stephanie hoped in Mike's car and they drove to his place.

"So...I thought we would just hang out, watch a movie." He said.

"Why dont we sit and talk. That would be nice."

"We had plans to watch a movie."

"I know. But, for once I just wanna sit down and talk. No noise, no movies, no music. Just you and me."

"Were sticking to our plans."

"No...you mean your plans. Why cant we decide on what to do with our time together?"

"Because, Stephanie I said so."

"What the hell is wrong with you. You say you love me...yet you dont want to do anything that makes me happy!"

"You, you, you. It's all about you! Not everything is about you Stephanie!"

"Go to hell!" Stephanie screamed and made her way for the door. Mike grabbed a hold of her arm pushed her against the wall. She fell down, knees up to her chest sobbing.

"Shut the hell up and stand up." Mike said grabing her by both arms and giving her a smack across the cheek. "I thought you understood what would happen if you gave me lip?"

"Mike, please!"

"Get the fuck out of my house!" Mike yelled and pushed her out the door. She was left out there in the cold, night air. She sat there for a while, trying to regain her strenth and headed for her home.
