~Beck's POV~
We were all squealing in our seats and I was just twiddling with the backstage pass as I could hear the band behind the curtain getting ready, soon the lights all switched off but it was light enough to see them and for them to see us, we all stood up but I as still unhappy and still in pain, I twiddled with it throughout half the concert while all the other boys and girls were jumping up and down having fun, I stared at them not knowing what fun was, I never had fun, not with MY parents anyway. Or anyone who I really knew knew, like THAT knew, just, friends, even that wasn't really fun. Nathan crouched beside me on the stage and pointed to my tag around my neck and mouthed something but I couldn't lip read so he whispered it into my ear. "Is that a backstage pass?" I stared at him for a second before replying. "Yeah. I guess I'll see you backstage..." "Nathan. And sure" he smiled and with that he was gone, after the concert me and Kelly were heading to the backstage booth. "So, you and Nath were getting it on huh?" She laughed I just shook my head and looked to the ground. "Hey cheer up, well, the boys will cheer you up." She smiled as I tried my best to return it. Once we reached the booth I ran to Nathan. "Hey." My eyes were still red from crying earlier this morning, he sat down and signalled me too do so as well, as I sat next to him I started biting my lip nervously. "What's wrong? I noticed you weren't really happy during the concert? Is there something wrong maybe you could share with me?" So I told him all about my parents and he pulled me into a hug. "Anything else?" I slowly nodded and rolled up the first half of my shirt revealing several scars and scratches. "My Dad used to beat me when I was little. I used to be at least eleven years old when the beating began..." I rolled my eyes as I dropped my shirt down. "It's no big deal. He had ADHD. I'm sure he can't help it" Nathan's eyes widened. "No he can help it even if he does have ADHD, no one should do this to you!" His voice was stern and protective. "Thank you Nathan but, how can I avoid it? My dad and mum, they both hate me, I can't move out I'm fifteen, I'll have nowhere to go." I started crying but Nathan's arms wrapped around me made me feel safe, but I was still very upset. "Live with us."
