then it hit me...my mom had no idea what happened to me...none of my family knew.

later that week

I had been on the road for 48 hours due to me having a random idea to drive all the way to Las Vegas from Quantico, Virginia. I had taken a few breaks and that's why it took me 48 hours. I sighed as I pulled into my parents driveway. It was 7:30am and I knew everyone was awake. I looked and felt much better now but my mental state was not healed at all. I got out of my car and walked up to the door. I knocked and waited for an answer. I waited for a few minutes before my sister Nicole opened the door. "Lizzy!" She yelled as she pulled me into a tight hug that slightly hurt but I didn't care, I hugged back just as tightly. I smiled and held onto her as I heard my mom ask who was at the door before I heard a gasp and heavy footsteps. I then was hugged tightly by my mother and then soon enough my father.

the talk

After the hugs and cries we all went up to the living room and sat down. My mom got me a bottle of water and sat down beside me well Nicole sat on the other side of me and my father sat across from me. "What brings you here so early? You weren't supposed to come until this summer" My mom exclaimed as she looked at me. "Well..something happened well I was working..." I began, oh no...I felt a panic attack coming up, my heart raced and my hands shook. "Well...Go on" Nicole said. "I uh I was kidnapped...and beaten...I was in recovery for a bit and the team wasn't aloud to tell anyone..and I have been to scared to call you guys and tell you and I just got used to leaving my house again..." My eyes filled with tears as I explained my horrible past. Everyone was silent, my mom's face was pale. Nicole's eyes had anger pouring out of them. My dad just looked numb. We stayed like this for a few minutes before Nicole shot up and began to scream "You could have died! And we wouldn't have known! You are so selfish! Always thinking about yourself! Putting your job before your own family!" "Your sister has a point Elizabeth...if you would have died...we would have been the last to know about it" My mother explained her anger to me. "I am so disappointed in you" My father said coldly. My god..I was being tore apart by my own family for something I couldn't control. "Y-You guys don't get it...I couldn't tell you...I could have called but you guys would have been pissed if I told you over the phone" I defended myself. "No, you were selfish, I bet that it wasn't even that bad!" Nicole yelled. "No! It was! I was in pain for almost two weeks straight! I couldn't move, shower, I could barley eat and I was out of a job for two weeks! God! You guys are such assholes! Screw you all! Your right! I could have died, but I didn't because I have a great team and they are my real family because they would do anything for me and you guys...you guys would do nothing..fuck you" I mumbled the last part but made sure they could still hear me. I grabbed my jacket, keys and slipped my shoes on before walking out the front door. Here's to a long journey home...to my real home.
