"You know im gunna have to tell mom." Nick said as we drove home. I sighed, "You dont have to." He chuckled a bit. "Aria your mom needs to know." "No she dosnt, it can be our little secret." "Aria." "Dad." "Aria, im telling mom." I slouched back in my seat and crossed my arms. "Fine."

*Home*

As we walked through the door Demi ran up to us and hugged me and pecked Nicks lips. "How was it guys!" "It was awesome, me and dad had a really good time" I said smiling, nervous for the next words that could come out of Nicks mouth. "Ya, we got closer then we were before and talked about stuff." He looked at me "I think this was a really good idea Aria, im happy you wanted to do this with me." He kissed my cheek.

"Umm but Demi, I need to talk to you in the kitchen. Okay?" "Oh umm okay, Aria go up to your room let us talk." "Cant I stay and listen, im sure its about me anyway." I said rolling my eyes and looking at Nick. "Just let me talk to Nick alone ok sweetie?"

I hated being called sweetie, it made me feel like a 5 year old. "Fine whatever im going upstairs." I marched up to my room slamming the door, not cause I was mad, i just wanted to annoy them.

After about five minutes I finally heard Demi call me and U trudged downstairs. She stood straight up tall, arms on her hips, right in front of me while Nick sat in the back at the table watching. "Show me." She said in a demanding tone. I slowley lifted up my sleeves revealing the cuts to her. "Why Aria? Why didnt you talk to me?" She squatted down to my height. I was right there Aria, all you had to do was say something. Where did you even get a blade!? I thought I took them all?" I rolled my sleeves back down and over my hands staring at the ground. I shook my head "I dont know, it all happened so fast. One moment I was in the bathroom happy and ready to get dressed and the next moment I was bleeding. All i did was walk past a mirror." I said with my eyes watering.

Demi lifted my chin up so I stared into her eyes. They were a beautiful chocolate brown you could stare at for hours. They were full of hope and sympathy and made me want to smile. But then the words came out of her mouth and I was brought back to reality. I started to cry and tears rolled fast down my face.

"Aria, you have to talk to us, you cant let the demons control you like that. I know its hard and im sure with all you've been through its even harder, but we love you, so much, and I dont want you to keep hurting yourself like this." "I love you mom." "I love you too baby girl."

We hugged and soon Nick came and hugged with us. I cracked a small smile. Our family might be broken, but its standing strong.
