-One Day Later-
-Jessica's POV-
Have you ever felt like you just want Earth to eat you alive? I was feeling exactly that, Luke and I were having a conversation about my career again. For God's sake, when was he going to stop?
"Jessica you know how I feel about this, you can't just go out and see if you are lucky enough to win the money you need to live, you first need to have a career, have a place to live, food and everything else."he said pacing around the room without breaking eye contact with me, he looked frustrated, annoyed and irritated, "This is my house, you have to follow my rules until you get yourself a place to live." Oh shit, he was being serious.
"Oh well, at least I'm not the one hitting their husband when their children aren't home." I spat without thinking, now he looked angry, you know how in some cartoons people seem to have smoke coming out of their ears? My dad looked exactly like that, he came closer to me and grabbed me by the collar of my shirt, I'm surprised nobody has heard our discussion.
"You have no right to say that!"he shouted, "You have to shut up or else I'll do something."He said, okay now I was angry.
"Oh, really? What are you going to do, kick me out of the house?" At this moment I wanted to face palm myself, I act so stupidly when I'm angry.
"Oh so now your testing me, huh?" Luke asked, I was now on the verge of another panic attack, I was pleading that it wouldn't happen right now, thank God he let me go.
"You can't say anything, understood?" He asked and I immediately nodded "Good."
When I saw he was out of the living room I took out my phone and dialled Dylan's number, I really needed him right now, screw all our problems, I don't care any more he answered after two rings.
"Hi?" He asked clearly confused that I was calling him for the first time in two weeks.
"Dyl, I really need you right now, please forgive me, I was so stupid, I'm sorry." I said.
"Oh, beautiful, is fine, I was stupid too." He said "Do you want me to come over?"
"Yes please." I answered.

After I called Dylan I wanted to look a bit more presentable since it was still early, I just threw my Wild sweater on and some skinny jeans, then tied my hair up in a messy bun, I heard a knock on the door and went to open it.
There stood Dylan in a flannel shirt, black jeans, converse shoes and his glasses.
"What happened to your contacts?" I asked since I rarely see him with glasses.
"Uh, I- I, they got lost." He said stuttering, he was lying but I just let it go away and invited him to come in.
"Why were you so sad?" He questioned.
"Luke and I had a conversation and I told him I saw what he did." I said.
"Oh, wait. What?!" Dyl asked not believing what I just told him. "What did he do?"
"He said that I couldn't tell anyone or else he would do something and then I lost control like when the Joey accident happened, he's mad, I'm really worried he's going to do something Dyl. What if Jonah tells him he saw too?" By this point I was already sobbing, Dylan took my hand and said...
"Look at me, everything is going to be okay, your brother is intelligent he won't let it slip don't worry." Dylan said.
"Smile while you still have teeth." he said jokingly making a weird face that made me smile.
