After me and James finished the rest of the chores Aunt Beth came home in her little tractor. "I'm home family!" She said as she interned the house. Family? I was her family? I looked over at James, who was hugging Aunt Beth. Once she saw me she let go of James to walk over to me. Her arms reached out and wrapped her arms around me. She was hugging me! Not to hurt me, but to love me? Is this love? I hugged her back. She let go," what do you two want for dinner?" Me and James said at the same time,"peanut butter and jelly!" As Aunt Beth made our dinner, me and James head over to the barn. James crawled into the cows pen and sat on the stool. As he brushed the cow I stood on the outside of the pen, my arms resting on the pen door. "Who's Cassie? I mean to you." I said. James's head went up, looking surprised. "Noneya." James said looking back at the cow. "Why won't you tell me stuff about you?" I asked almost begging for an answer. "Because I don't even know you" he replied. That's true he doesn't. "Come and get it!" Aunt Beth yelled. Me and james ate in silence, I finished first so I went to my room and got in my pj's. I Hurd a quite nock then james just came through the door. "Hi" I said. "I was wondering wh-" James stopped in mid-sentance. He grabs my wrist and twists until he sees the very light part of my arm. He saw my cuts. Crap, I looked over at him. His eyes were cold. "K, what is this?" James asked his eyes still on my cuts. I tried jerking my arm away but he had it in a firm grip. "How could you do this to yourself?" He asked his eyes meeting mine. They were sad now. "Noneya." I said finally able to take my arm from him. He looked away and walked out the door.
