~marjories pov~

marjorie was extremely nervous about seeing reece, but she knew she was safe. autumn gently rubbed her hand up and down her back in a attempt to calm her nerves.

"what the fuck are you doing here reece" autumn got very defensive.

marjorie stayed quiet as she was frozen in fear, she closed her eyes and tried to regulate her breathing focusing on the the soft touch of autumn, rubbing her back gently.

reece noticed this and got very angry all of sudden again, "moved on form me so quickly marjorie?"

marjorie gulped and opened her eyes and said "you know it's not like that reece.."

reece snapped. "SO WHAT IS IT LIKE THEN MARJORIE? YOU LEAVING ME FOR MY FUCKING SISTER?"

"reece..." winter said as he didn't bring him here to do this.

with that, marjorie started sobbing again and autumn pulled her in to calm her down, "it's okay baby, im here" as marjorie cryed into her shoulder.

autumn shoot winter a look and he grabbed reece and pulled him out the room.

autumn held marjorie until she calmed down.

marjorie had enough of this, she stood up and headed into the kitchen where reece and winter were talking.

"you know what reece, you don't get to treat me like this. i go to ends of the earth to protect you and this is how you repay me when i tell you im not in love with you anymore? is it just beacuse you don't want me to be happy? is that it? if you really loved me, you would be happy for me. i gave up everything for you reece, i loved you so much." marjorie sighed of relief as she finally got it out.

"marjorie im-" marjorie cut him off,

"save it reece, i dont want to hear it im so done with this shit"

~autumns pov~

autumn stood at the doorway watching marjorie go off at reece and she could not be more proud.

as marjorie walked towards her, she thought she was coming in for a hug, but in reality she nudged past autumn and said "oh fuck off wont you autumn"

this extremely hurt autumn, and she ran up to her bedroom locking the door behind her.

autumn never told anyone this, not even winter, but she self harmed.

she had done it most of her life, the only person who knew was reece, but also then he thought she stopped a while ago.

as she sat there and sliced small cuts on to her arms, she wondered what her life had become. does marjorie still want her? does she blame her for what happened with reece? would winter take her back? was something in her life ever going to go right?

all of a sudden she was broken from her thoughts when she heard a knock at the door "autumn?" it was reece,

"oh fuck off reece won't you" autumn said as she climbed under the covers to attempt hiding the fresh cuts on her arms.

"im coming in." reece said as he unlocked the door and saw autumn lying under neath the covers,

"aut aren't you hot?" reece asked.

"fuck off reece." she replied, refusing to look him in the eye.

"look autumn i just wanted to say-" reece said as he said down on the bed, accidentally pulling the covers down and revealing her arms.

"autumn, those better not be what i think they are" reece said looking autumn straight in the eye.

"honestly reece, for the third time, fuck off!" autumn said as she pulled the covers back over her arms.

"autumn fortune-knight are you harming yourself again?"

"even if i was it's not like you care anyways" autumn said to him, she hated her brother in this moment.

"autumn, why? you stopped a long time ago!"

"no i didn't, i never stopped, i just got better at hiding it." autumn said, still refusing to look her brother in the eye.

"that doesn't matter, right now you need to go to talk to marjorie beacuse you cant keep doing this. she's down stairs in the living room, refusing to speak to anyone." reece said, walking out the room.

autumn put on a long hoodie to hide her arms, she could deal with that later.

autumn walked down stairs and into the living room, noticing marjorie curled up into a ball on the sofa.

"marjorie?" autumn said as she walked in the room.

"autumn." she replied.
