I wake up to a loud noise downstairs and a pounding headache. I get out of bed and walk downstairs to see the twins wrestling on the floor. I look over at dad and he's giving me a look. I go over to the twins and pull Willow off of Cole and put stand her on her feet.

"What are you doing" I ask them

"He ripped my homework up" Willow says annoyed

"Cole why did you do that" my dad buts in

"SHE BROKE MY TOY" Cole yells

"Cole inside voice please" dad says

"Sorry" Cole says

"Apologize to each other please" dad says

"Sorry" they both say

Willow walks upstairs to her room and Cole goes outside. Dad follows me into the kitchen and leans against the kitchen island next to me.

"So what did you do last night" Dad says

"I laid in bed for a while and went to sleep" I say

"Honey why did I find 7 beers gone from the fridge this morning when I went to grab some water" he says

"Oh" I say closing the fridge and turning around

"You're only 17. You only had to wait six months" dad says

"I'm sorry. I just wanted to sit outside and drink" I say

"Why do you did this" he says

"I was thinking a lot and couldn't go to bed" I say

"We'll do you want to talk about it love" He says

"Not right now. I think I want to figure this out on my own if I can" I say

"Okay well if you want to talk I'm here for you" he says

"Thanks dad" I say

"Oh and no more drinking please" he says

"I know dad. Oh and can my friend Lilly come over today" I say

"Yeah that's fine" dad says

I grab some water and head upstairs into my room. I grab my phone off my night stand and call Lilly.

"Hey Matilda"-Lilly

"Hey I was wondering if you'd want to come over for a sleepover tonight"-Matilda

"Oh yeah sure I'd love that. I'll get my stuff ready and be on my way"-Lilly

"Okay! See you soon"-Matilda

I hang up the call and decide to get dressed for the day. I go over to my walk in closet that dad insisted that I needed because I love shopping so much and go over to my shorts. I take out a pair of black shorts and put them on. I grab a light blue t-shirt and put that on too. I brush my long blonde hair out and look at myself in the mirror. I notice my old scars on my leg and get a little sad. This shouldn't be affecting me. Is my medicine not working right? I can't go back. I just met a really good girl and I want to get to know her. I can't go back to that place. I'm going to talk to dad about this later since mum is away visiting Somme of her friends for a while.
