I turned my head to the side to see Leah once more. Why wouldn't you just let me be did she think I deserved this.
"Murderer" she said once more. Why why couldn't she leave me be. I was so sorry. I killed her, yes. I was living with that regret.
"Leah I'm sorry" I whispered and he squeezed my shoulder.

I backs away and she did that horrific crawl across my room.
"LEAVE ME ALONE" I said as I started to cry. Then my door was swung open.

I looked to see my Father and mother my other nightmares.
"WHAT THE (HECK) ARE YOU DOING HOME YOU BRAT" my dad yelled at me.
"WE GOT A CALL FROM YOUR SCHOOL SAYING YOU WEREN'T THERE" My mother yelled.

I looked and tried to find a reasonable answer.
"Don't you dare lie either!!!" My mother yelled to. I stood up and they saw me crying. They rolled their eyes and left. Before my dad left he turned around.
"By the way young lady you are grounded" he said then slammed my door.

Me being grounded didn't consist of taking away my phone or my TV privileges.  I meant my curfew was 4:30pm and it is usually 11:00pm. So that means I go to school and I have 1 hour to do what I please and then I have to be home. It also meant I had to spend time with them instead of being in my room.

They weren't really abusive physically. But they were sometimes mentally and verbally abusive. But that is when I do something wrong. And when I yelled at them for making me being a a relationship with Dave that was the one time my dad ever hit me. But that was years ago.

They never really got mad anymore. That was the fisrt time they yelled at me in months. And when I spent time with them I was usually only grounded for 2 day. And lastly I have to apologize for what I did because they always have a reason to ground me.

(A/N: I have a question real fast. In your guys opinion is lexis parents good parents or bad parents)

I went to the living room where my dad was. Him and Mom had very flexible work schedules so that is why they could stay home. I sat down next to my father and looked at him. He looked back at me.

"Dad" I said and he just made a Hmm sound. Here goes my apology.
"I'm sorry for skipping school. I don't know why I did and it was stupid and now my attendance while be messed up because I wanted to act like a brat. So I'm sorry" I said and he smiled and brought me into a hug.
"And I'm sorry for yelling at you" he said  and I looked at him. He was watching TV then mom came in.
"I'm sorry to lexi. And I forgive you to. Now I will start lunch" mom said and and dad nodded.

Then on the news came breaking news. So I decided to listen. My mom walked in as well.
"Breaking news. At 10:47 this morning as teenager girl was found on the shore of ****** Beach. Her body had washed in from the ocean. Investigators say that she died of drowning. Her parents had been notified and they have identified the body as Leah Jones. Then we have a car crash on blah blah blah" it said and I  teared up.

She was really dead. Gone forever. Because of me. My parents looked at me their eyes teared up as well as they quickly hugged me.

Then there was a knock on the door. My mom answered. And I heard her greet the person.
"Hello Dave"
