This makes me want to find all of the women's shelters in Pennsylvania and send out fliers or something. That or watch Lifetime ;)
Lovely story though. So sad :( I hate imagining little Pam afraid like that. I liked her sister, too.

It's very good! I think Claire should go to her mom's house, get some support and never go back! This line of the song " but there are groceries to buy
and she knows she'll have to go home" is so sad.
One positive, is that Pam probably did not have this kind of dad, since she considered him a white man that she trusts (The Convict). Phew!
It's so sad to think of all the people in this sort of situation! Good story, Emily!!

I know... I hope she did. That entire song is just so sad, because its like, you want them to escape, but it really is hard to.
But yeah, I always picture Pam coming from a happy family. I have no idea where I got this idea, I just had the little scene of Pam and her sister hiding in a closet.
Thanks for the review!

I think this was very well done. Nice and short.
Though in my mind Pam has two wonderful, loving parents...her relationship with Roy could have definately hinted to a brutish, drunk, maybe even abusive father. So it all made a lot of sense.
I liked it. Good job.
Author's Response:
Oh yes, in my mind Pam has happy loving parents. I just had the idea of Pam and her sister hiding in the closet. And so yeah... it came from no where. Although, I do think something may have influenced her relationship with Roy... be it parents or maybe Roy himself, I don't know.
Thanks!

Oh, it pleases me to see one of my favorite songs used in a fic. No matter how sad it is. I really liked this, and it has so much potential too, maybe you can do something more with it if it strikes you. :)

I don't think there is a way to use Two Beds and A Coffee Machine and have it not be sad. It is such a sad, but amazing song.
If I get a flash of inspiration, I will definitly continue. Hopefully make it a positive outcome!
