HALSEY'S POV
It's been 18 years since someone left me when I was a little girl. My name is Halsey Angel Hunter. Well, Hunter is my mom's name. I don't know who my biological father is.
Throughout my life it's been one bad thing after another.
Flashback: Halsey's 10th birthday..................
"I got something for you, Halse." Kevin, my mom's boyfriend smiled. Don't let that stupid smile fool you. It wasn't a good birthday for a little girl. "What is it, Daddy?" To this day I don't know why I called him my dad. He's done nothing but abuse me for 18 years. Kevin smirked devilishly. I should've seen it coming the second he started forcibly kissing me. I mean, who makes out with their girlfriend's daughter? Ewwww!! Kevin moved my blonde hair away from my face. He was breathing huskily. "You're a big girl now." He moved to my bedroom door and locked it. It seemed to last forever. It was painful, horrific even. It hurt so bad I blacked out.
When I came to, he was outta my room, and my clothes were all around my bed, right down to my dorky undershirt and Hello Kitty underwear. It felt so wrong. I certainly hope my real dad isn't like this.
End of flashback.........................
I got up outta my bed and approached my mirror. Black eye, bruised face. The cuts all along my arms I did to myself, because of all those years of torture. Even with my scars, my appearance matched the singer in my favorite band, with that beautiful angelic voice.
PATRICK'S POV
I heard the ding from the phone and looked at my notifications. I gulped and bit my lip. April 12, Halsey's birthday. She's 21. Eighteen years I've missed out on in my Phoenix's life. Does she even remember me? Did I make the right choice leaving her with Dawn all those years ago?
After that first tour was over, I've made attempts to get back in Halsey's life, but they were of no use. Dawn wouldn't let me see her, she always came up with shitty excuses like Halsey's sick, or She's at school. Sometimes even She doesn't want to see you. Really? The only time she's seen me aside from YouTube, was when she was a CHILD!
Pete nudged my shoulder. "Trick, you're gonna want to see this." I reluctantly follow him to my computer. A gasp left my breath. It was Halsey. She's grown up so much! She had my blonde hair, my blue eyes. But something was wrong. She had a black eye, cuts all over her arms, her face was bruised, her pink lips bleeding. Despite her appearance, she was still on the internet, doing a cover of one of our songs. I smiled, immediately recognizing the tune. She's doing a cover of the Phoenix. Part of me was so proud of her, she has my range. However, I was very enraged with Dawn for letting this happen to my child. Halsey Stump. My Halsey.
I read the comments on her video. Most of them complimenting her voice and saying how she looks so much like me. Of course she does! She's my Phoenix!
HALSEY'S POV
I looked down at the comments on my solo.
Youngblood3000: Wow! She sounds like Patrick! She has his angelic voice and crazy range!!!
ThnksFrThMmrs: Are we sure she's not related to him somehow?
PatrickFOB: You sing wonderfully, my dear.
Hold up, pause. Is that really him?? My other followers were wondering the exact same thing.
ThnksFrThMmrs: Omg....is that really Patrick???
Another notification hit. "PatrickFOB messaged you!" I opened my chats and saw him there.
PatrickFOB: Hi Phoenix...
I wasn't sure if it was him or not, so I messaged back.
FallOutGirl: Are you really Patrick????
PatrickFOB: Yes Halsey, it's really me
