A/N : I changed my mind about making chapter 20 two parts anyways enjoy!

After a while I got used to dancing. I haven't done it in a while so I kept stepping on Octavian's feet. It was embarrassing but I got through the dancing. I've been mugged by so many girls in one night.

I feel a tap on my shoulder and I yelp. red punch was spilled all over me! I cuss under my breathe as I stare at the girl who threw it on me. "Oops", she chuckled and turned around. I lunged on her and I let out a snicker

I punched her right in the face and she yelped. I got pulled by Octavian and he looked at me with cold eyes. He pulled me out of the ball room into a hall. I looked at him with a from and he punched me . Hard.

Hot tears came running down my cheeks and I stood up and walked pass him out the door. It was a chilly night and I had no idea of were I was going but I just needed to be left alone . I went to a gas station just up the block and I pulled out my wallet that only had five dollars in it.

I was broke and I knew but I just wanted a chocolate bar and some sweet tea. I put my things on the counter and the man rung it up and I gave him the money. "Thanks", I said while I walked out of the store.

I walked down a little further and sat on the sidewalk and started to eat my candy bar. Was it wrong that I stole a candy bar that was only a dollar fifteen? I didn't have enough money to buy two.

I unwrapped my chocolate and sat there and ate it. Chocolate made me feel better when I was down . I seen headlights from a car stop right in front of me I looked up and it was Octavian. I snickered and turned around to finished my chocolate.

"Rose."

"What."

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to-"

"I don't want to hear it Octavian. I'm tired of all this foolishness and want to go home. I rather go home with my abusing father then be with some blood sucking vampire who does the same. At least my fathers punches don't hurt as much as yours."

I felt my cheek were he punched me and knew there was a purple bruise forming. He looked down at his feet. "I'm sorry about that Rose I didn't mean it." A tear slipped down and I looked back up.

"You always say that but never mean it." He sighs and sits next to me. He picks up my chocolate and I turn around and frown. I slap it out of his hand and huff. "Don't touch my chocolate."

He chuckles real loud and puts his hands up. "Alright, alright I won't." He takes everything as a joke when I'm serious most the time.

"Lets go home." I mumble and look at him. "Not my house." I get into the passenger side and he drives us "home".

I know it's not long but I really wanted to post something for you guys. Hope you enjoy!
