Demi took the pass from the teacher before making her way out the room seeing Joe sat against the lockers opposite the door banging his head gently on them as he stared at the ground in front of him. That was until the door opened then his eyes wondered up to Demi rolling his eyes knowing that she wasn't really going to the bathroom or to the nurse like she had probably told their teacher. He wanted her to stop bugging him.

"Wow your hard aren't you." Demi lectured Joe only rolling his eyes again.

"Just because I'm not a goodie two shoes," Joe snapped back. "What do you actually want from me? Why won't you leave me alone?"

"Because I want to help you even if that is being your friend, someone that you can come to about this." Demi stated standing over him as he looked up at her.

"I've told you before there's nothing going on, I'm just a huge jerk." Joe answered Demi shaking her head gently. She'll give him that, the fact he was keeping to his word. She was exactly like it this time last year, she'd like to help him though, be the someone who did help him and not ignored what was clearly going on at home.

"I'm not buying it Joe, I'm going to keep bugging you until you cave so you may as well admit it now." Demi spoke her tone harsh. Joe just looked towards the floor, he couldn't tell her even though his mind was begging him to do so. He needed to protect his mother and three older sisters, they were the most important people in his life.

"I-I can't." Joe stammered slightly.

"Why not?" Demi questioned becoming slightly concerned.

"Nothing." Joe mumbled getting up from the floor pushing past her as she tried to stop him. He left school again not able to take anymore of being here.

"Joey!" He heard a squeal smiling when he saw Aiden run over to him. Joe lifted him up in his arms even if he was a bit big at six. Aiden was his oldest Nephew his second oldest sister having him at the age of nineteen. He was the only child that Denise didn't have Grandchildren from but she was always lecturing him not to give her any this soon. Not that he paid attention, he still messed around with girls at clubs and parties.

"Hey Aiden, where's mommy?" Joe questioned putting him down on the ground taking hold of his hand as he was lead through into the living room seeing Bethany clearing away a bit after her boys but it would soon be messed up. He couldn't help but smile as he saw her bump and the glow on her cheeks. Joe let go of Aiden's hand kneeling down by her. "Let me tidy away, you sit down ." He demanded Bethany smiling allowing him to help her up at sit back down next to three year old Ryder Aiden climbing up next to her.

"What are you doing here? Your meant to be at school." Bethany lectured.

"Oh I walked out." Joe mumbled but she could still hear him.

"Joseph school is important!" Bethany lectured Joe just rolling his eyes at her.

"Don't you start too, mom is already on my case." He begun. "Do you know what you're having yet?" Joe attempted to change the conversation.

"Another boy," She stated. "I want you to go right back to school now and get into class. No little brother of mine is going to ruin his education."

"I'm not going." Joe demanded.

"Get out my house Joe, I'm not having you skiving in my house." Aiden and Ryder flinched as they saw his uncle throw something across the room in his rage.

"Fine whatever, I wish all you girls would get of my fucking back!" He screamed before leaving the house slamming the door behind him. Bethany sighed wrapping her arms around her sons.

"What are we going to do with Uncle Joey eh?" She questioned kissing both their heads.
