Samantha's P.O.V

I felt bad for Carri. I really did. She cried herself to sleep at nights. Destrey went in and out of her room. She couldn't handle the pain of her brother being in the hospital. She went and visited him every night. During the day all she could do was sleep. I walked out of my room and saw Carri, on the floor. Joey and Destey were gone getting things for Joey's new video.  I walked over to Carri an knelt down next to her.  "Carri what are you doing on the floor?" I asked. She took response, "take me over to Jack's house, please?" I nodded. She got up and put on her black toms. I drove us to Jack's house. Carri ran out of the car and ran to the door. I followed behind. Jack Johnson answered the door. Carri walked in and I followed after her. Jack J pushed the door shut after I walked in. Carri turned around and hugged Jack. Jack was happy though. No tears, no tissues everywhere, no sadness. He spoke up, "hey Carri I have a suprise for you. Follow me." We followed Jack down the hall. Jack stepped out of the way and Carri opened the door and saw her brother. She started to cry.
Jack Gilinsky's P.O.V

I've been home for 1 week. All the stiches and scratches were healed and I only had a cast on my right arm. Carri was in my door frame crying. I got up and hugged my little sister. I felt very happy to see her. She was shaking. "Carri want to sign my cast. You, Samanta, Destrey, Joey, and Johnson can all sign it." I said to comfort her. I handed her a sharpie in black because I had a neon green cast and no other color would look good with it. She took the sharpie and signed my cast. After Samantha and Johnson signed it we all sat around and watched the movie Annabelle.  Everything Carri screamed she would latch on to my left side.  Samantha barely screamed.  Once it was over I was holding Carri because she had fell asleep with a smile on her face. Samantha was passed out on Johnson's lap. Jack was passed out as well. I picked Carri up in my arms, even my broken arm, I carried her to my room and laid her on my bed. I was walking towards the dor when I heard Carri yawn. "Jack where are you going?" she spoke. "I'm going yo the spare room so you can sleep." I said. She motioned for me to lay next to her. She has never felt safe. When we where younger our parents always fought day in day out. She was always scared. We always slept in the same room in the same bed because back when we where young our parents bought a house that wasn't big. I protected her. I love her to the moon and back.  I walked towards the bed and laid behind my little sister wrapping my arms around her making her feel safe.  I soon fell into a deep sleep holding my baby sister.

******The Next Day ******
Carri's  P.O.V

I got up the next morning because Samantha needed to get back to the house and shower. I got up and left Jack a note on the pillow I slept on,
Jack,
I went back home with Samantha. Text me when you wake up. Love you, Carri.

Samantha and I left my brothers house to get back to the flat. Once we got home we we stepped inside greeted by the boys each  holding a snake.  "Here girls. These are for you." Joey spoke with the weirdest  look on his face.  They held out their arms. Destrey held a white ball python for me and Joey had a white and a golden color pattern on him. Destrey led me up to our room and there was a beautiful habitat for him. I named him Bob.  I put Bob in his habitat and let him roam.  So far this day has been the best.
