Thanks to all of you who reviewed! I loved all of them! And yes, it is kind of depressing. But I've read other Channy stories on this site that make it hard for me to breathe. And yet, they're my favorites. Hope you all like this chapter! Keep reviewing!

Chapter 3

Sonny POV

I sat there. We had a small closet, too. I knew he would find me, anyway. But it took him a little while longer. Drunks can only stay conscious for so long. But, still I sat there, waiting for him. Waiting for the man that ruined my life.

But, still I waited. Time went by slowly. As always. Except for when I was at the studio. The studio where I could be myself. Or act like it was myself, anyway. Because I wasn't her. The girl that skipped into the studio. The girl that hummed when she was thinking of an idea for a sketch. The girl who was full of life. Because I, I was a walking corpse. I wasn't losing myself. I was already gone.

A car door closed. A front door opened. And out stepped the man. Ah, today was a good day. He looked too drunk to stay conscious any longer, and headed upstairs to pass out in the bedroom.

He left me there, to celebrate and to pick up the pieces of what used to be my life. Because I didn't have it any more. I was dead. And no one would be digging me out of my grave anytime soon. Because I, Allison Monroe, am cursed to forever live what is supposed to be my life in the shadows.

And the girl who I envy so much, the girl I despise, the girl that has everything I don't, I created. I created Sonny Monroe. Because she was never there before. And she isn't real. She is like a doll. Looks real on the outside, but is empty inside. Because she is plastic.

Some things can never change. I go upstairs, lie down flat on my back, and stare at the ceiling. The ceiling that has seen everything. From my first abuse to now. I know this isn't me. The real me is inside.

Struggling, dying, to get out.

So, what do you guys think? Not much happened in this chapter but since I have Christmas break for two weeks, I'll update a lot! Keep reviewing!
