The End

Kyles Place

I got to Kyle's place in record time, when it comes to my sister there's no messing around. I hate that her friends didn't give me any insight on the situation because my mind is running wild. I didn't know what state Phoenix was going to be in but I guess I'm going to have to prepare myself for the worst.

"Jack, she's up here!" One of the girls who wasn't actually Phoenix's friends yelled me over once I was inside.

"What happened? What's wrong with her?" I panicked as she opened the door to a room for me.

Phoenix was on the bed sobbing her heart out, her dress was torn and I knew she was drunk. My instincts kicked in and I wrapped my jacket around her to cover her up before pulling her into my arms. I can guess what has happened before she even told me, it happens to too many girls in our school. Once I find out who done this to her, I will kill them.

"Jack Jack, I'm sorry!" She cried, clutching onto my chest.

"It's okay Phee Phee, tell me what happened?" I soothed her with the childish nicknames we use to use for each other.

"He got me drunk, he tried to have sex with me but I wasn't ready, I didn't want to do it at some party," I rubbed her back as she continued to cry. "I managed to get him off me before anything happened, can you please take me home?"

"Come on then," I picked her up, making sure everything was covered because I don't want her to be making a fool of herself. Luckily, my jacket was actually like a dressing gown on her so everything was hidden.

I drove her home as she just curled her self up in the passenger seat. She needs to stop putting herself in these situations, this isn't the first time I've had a phone call to come pick her up from a party. Usually she's wasted, it's never been this serious but I've always managed to keep it from our parents. If one or both of them are home I pretend that we'd just camped out in the treehouse like we use to do and they've always bought it, luckily for Phoenix.

"Please don't tell mom and dad," Phoenix asked as we walked into the house.

"Hey kids... What the hell happened?" We were frozen when both our God Fathers were stood in the living room.

"Uncle Danny, Uncle Ben, Hey!" I smiled as both of them didn't budge while looking over the wreck that was Phoenix. I'm really the only one in this family that knows the real Phoenix.

"Explain, now!" Danny yelled, he's very protective of Phoenix, he is her God Father.

"Uncle Danny, don't be mad, I snuck out and went to a party, don't tell mom or dad, please!" Phoenix pouted as she ran over and hugged Danny.

"Go clean your self up, sweetheart," Danny kissed her head before she headed upstairs and the eyes turned to me.

"Spill, the real story," Ben raised his eyebrows as I fell onto the sofa with a sigh.

"She's like this all the time, I'm always picking her up from parties and keeping it from mom. Tonight went too far, she nearly got herself raped. I can't protect her if she gets herself in these stupid situations," I grabbed the edges of my hair as Ben put his arm around me.

"Danny, go talk some sense into her." Ben nodded his head to the stairs and Danny headed straight up after Phoenix.

"I really don't know how to deal with her anymore, Uncle Ben. I can't tell mom because she stressed enough as it is and dad, well I can't even tell you the last time I even spoke to him," I rolled my eyes as I just sat back. "You've been a better dad to me in the past few years than he has."

"Hey kiddo, don't be so harsh on him, he loves you!" Ben defended him.

"Yeah, he might love me but he doesn't talk to me. I have to deal with all of this shit, Phoenix is going of the fucking rails, I can't cope with any of this and both of my parents think we are this perfect little family. We were all screwed from the beginning," I shook my head and got up.

"LJ, where are you going?" Ben asked as I just headed out the back, I need to relieve stress and anger. Once these guys leave I'm gong find out who done this to Phoenix and do something about it.

Ben knows to leave me alone when I head out here, when I'm like this. The only thing allowed near me is Jetta and that's it, she's the only person that I'm never mad at, no matter what she does because she's a dog and loves me no matter what.

I saw Ben and Danny haven't left by time I've calmed down a bit, I don't really want to deal with this tonight so I'm gonna just sleep out here. It's easier just to hide out from this because I know they aren't gonna let what happen slide but I also know they're not gonna say anything in front of my parents.

"What's going on Jack?" Someone shoved me a little as I opened my eyes, it was Mike.

"What is it?" I groaned, sitting up noticing it was actually day light and more likely nearer to the afternoon, especially if Mike's here and he had a party last night.

"Ben called me, he told me about how you kicked off last night, what was that about, man?"

"I'm just sick of all this shit, mom pretends to ignore the problems that we all have and dads away the majority of the time so basically it's pointless even trying. Just 4 more months till I'm 18 and I can just go." I got up and pulled my shirt on.

"LJ, you don't mean that, your parents try their best and love you guys to death," Mike pulled me back as I was ready to just head to the door.

"Yeah well, maybe their best hasn't actually worked. It would have been better for everyone if Phee and I weren't born," I pulled my arm out of Mikes and stormed out of the room.

I managed to get in the car with Jetta and head off before anyone stopped me. Mom and dad were home, I wonder what's going on inside the house but right now I actually couldn't careless. This family is actually so fucked and nobody is stopping it from getting worse. Soon mom will just go on tour with dad, Phee and I will end up in a place together. Phee will probably drink herself to death and then it will be just me on my own, like its been since I basically started school.
