new princess

Austin's p.o.v

"i can't take it anymore." a small voice from behind me said. i looked behind to see a woman on the phone sitting and crying. she had bright purple hair and blue eyes. she was quite beautiful. i could hear the voice on the other end become worried before she hung up the phone. should i go over to her and make sure she is okay? i deal with kids like these every day and it breaks my heart. i walk over to her and sit next to her. "hi, are you okay?" i looked down at her she was short, she looked up at me and her porcelain make up had streaks down her cheeks. she was crying. i felt like bringing her into a hug, but i couldn't just yet. "yeah, i..." before she could finish her sentence he tried to fix up her make up. "i'm fine." i could see through her lie as if it were glass. i grabbed her hand and held it tightly. "i know that's a lie, i can tell." and with that she started crying again. "do you wanna come and get some coffee?" she nodded as i helped her up. she grabbed her small bag and continued to hold my hand. i was kind of hoping no fans would see me because she was sad and didn't need that and they would blow everything up and "ship" us like they did with me and Alan. i laughed a little in my head at the memory of kissing Alan that night. we walked into the coffee shop and the smell hit us like a gust of air. it smelt so nice in here. we sat down at the back and ordered our coffee's before talking more. "i never got your name, mine is Austin." i said hoping she would give me her name. "mine is bea, nice to meet you." she said flipping a strand of hair behind her ear. "so do you want to tell me what's wrong? i get it if you don't but i just like to help people going through tough times.." i trailed off before she grabbed my hand and nodded. her purple hair bobbed with her head. it was kind of cute. "well it all started ages ago, but i don't want to bore you with that, but my mum died when i was little leaving me and my dad, and he was abusive in every way. alcohol, drugs, me but for the past three years everything is different. now that i'm 18 i can legally move out and get away from him, but i have no where to go, and not enough income to survive by myself. my best friend died of cancer last year so i am all alone and that's when everything got even worse. i was already suicidal but now i feel like anything can tip me off. i find everything triggering and i can't take it anymore. i was just talking to my auntie who was always there for me and i told her that i couldn't take it anymore, and honestly if you didn't sit next to me i would have jumped off that bridge across the street." it was a lot to take in, but i knew there was more. i looked into her beautiful blue eyes and saw the pain and heart break that she had been through. i needed to be there for her. "you can stay with me if you want." she lifted her head from her hands and smiled at me. "if it's not to much to ask?" i smiled "of course not sweetheart." after we finished our coffee's we headed to my house, which wasn't too far away. "where abouts do you live?" a couple of blocks north." she said, her voice delicate as if someone could be listening. i grabbed my keys and drove to get her stuff. i walked with her up the stairs and heard the back door open. "shit" she said before grabbing my hand and rushing to her room. once in there she told me to hide in the bathroom. i sat down on the edge of the bath and waited. i heard voices and shouting, than a loud slap before the door slamming of doors. i also heard a truck drive off. bea opened the door holding her face, it had some scratches and was bruised. she ran in and hugged me. i hugged her back and rubbed her head, singing softly into her ears to calm her down. i was shocked and angry. i wanted to hurt her father for doing this so such a small and delicate person. i watched as she grabbed her stuff and packed it into bags, she didn't have a lot of stuff. after she had all her stuff and she had double checked, she wrote a note.
you are just a massive prick so i'm moving out. fuck you and your way of being a father.
she left it on the bed and carried her bags down to the car. once in the silence grew unbearable. i turned on the radio and heard my new song come on. i was so excited. i sang along to the words "you're not alone you're with me." and hummed along with the chorus and looked over at bea who had a strange look on her face. "you're voice sounds like his.." she said with a puzzled look. i laughed. "yeah i scream for a band called of mice and men." i was scared that she was going to run away because of my 'fame'. "no way! i always wanted to scream, but i never could." "it's very difficult to project it but it get's easier." i pulled into the drive way and helped her with her bags and dropped them in my room. i didn't have a spare room, so i would just sleep on the couch. "you get the bed and i get the couch." i said with a smile walking out of the room before feeling a hand grab my arm. "no i'll take the couch, this is YOUR room and YOUR house." i sighed and nodded and walked to watch some tv when my phone rang. it was alan. "dude have you seen tumblr? you and this mystery woman is everywhere, who is she?" i laughed and told him to come over and meet her. i walked into the kitchen to grab a couple of beers when i was stopped by bea. "so how often are you on tour?" she asked as i passed a drink down the table for her and sat down. "some years almost all year but than there are others, like this year, that we don't have so much touring to do." she seemed fully interested in what i was saying, not many woman are like that to me. "my friend alan is coming over shortly to discuss the new album, will you be okay meeting another person?" she smiled a toothy smile and nodded. she leaned back into the chair and tied her hair up in a messy bun, doing that caused her shirt to creep up on her stomach. she had a nice stomach. the door bell destroyed my train of thought as i walked to the door for the ginger princess. i opened it an saw him on his phone, as usual. i grabbed his arm and whispered to not be so over the top. he nodded and walked towards bea. "hi i'm alan, austin's best friend." he was blushing while extending his arm out to her. i laughed and grabbed another beer. "hi im bea, austin's new friend." they both laughed and sat down to watch what ever was on tv.
