Ok so this is my first fanfic. Hope you guys enjoy. The story is based on the song Concrete Angel by Martina Mcbride. So if you know the song you will know this story is very sad. Im not going to be too graphic with the abuse parts but enough for you to get the point. If you havnt heard the song i suggest you listen to it before reading this. If you are sensitive to subjects of abuse please dont read this.

Well here it is! This first chapter is very short, but the rest of the chapters will be MUCH longer i promise! Enjoy! R&R please!

Chapter 1

Bella Swan stood in front of the mirror in her room. She looked at the mark on her cheek that was now black and a little blue in places. It had been from one of the many blows she had gotten the night before. It was Monday morning at 7am and Bella was getting ready for school.

She covered the bruise on her face with concealer and foundation. She put on a black and grey striped top and threw on some faded jeans. She carefully walked down the stairs for she had a few broken ribs from the night before and a few other nights. When she got to the bottom, she looked around. There were several beer cans, and a few things knocked over. She quickly cleaned everything up before she walked out the door and began her walk to school.

It was a sunny day in Forks which didn't happen very often. She wasn't the only one on the street. There were a few others walking on the sidewalks also. She looked to her right. There was a small child maybe about 8 years old. Her mother was kneeling down in front of her. The mother hugged her child and the little girl started walking off. Bella couldn't stop the single tear that ran down her face.

The Winter Of 2005

I was 13 years old. I was lying on my bed listening to Ordinary Day by Dolores O'Riordan. The abuse had start about a year ago when Charlie had started his drinking. He had abused only my mother, Renee at the time.

I heard loud screaming and yelling from downstairs. This happened almost every night. But something about tonight was different. The screaming was louder than usual and I desperately wished to run downstairs and stop Charlie. But Charlie had ordered me to stay in my room and promised if I was to leave the room I would surely regret it. But I had a really bad feeling that if I wasn't to try to stop Charlie something very bad was sure to happen.

Suddenly, everything went quiet downstairs.

I took off my headphones to see if I could hear anything. Nothing. I quietly got up and crept over to my door. I put my ear up against it. Still nothing. I was really beginning to worry. Why would it be so loud one minute and then completely quiet the next? My ear was still pressed up against the door. Suddenly I heard a noise. It sounded like something was being dragged across the floor…

Then something clicked in my head. Loud one minute, quiet the next, something dragging across the floor…

I pulled away from the door and quietly opened it. I could hear much better now. I heard the front door open and then more of the dragging sound, then the door closing. My eyes widened and I knew exactly what those sounds were.

My father murdered my mother
