Valerie's POV

I wake up in Oscar's guest bedroom. Time to go deal with my brother about how getting arrested isn't the way to go and what not. Ugh! I am not mentally prepared for this.

I walk down the hall and into Oscar's room without knocking.

"Alright, take me home." I said while pulling off his blankets.

"Ugh. Okay then let me grab some jeans first. Kay?" He asks while getting out if bed in just some boxers with his 'morning wood'.

"Alright. But hurry up, oh and can I have the keys to your car?" I left my phone and bag in there last night.

"Sure. Kitchen counter." He said while stretching up.

"Thanks."

I stroll down the stairs grab the keys from the kitchen counter and head outside to his car. I open the back seat knowing that thats were I left my heel and bag last night. I grab my heels first and put then on. I don't know about you but I'm not one of those people that can just walk around bear foot-ed all day. Then, I grab my bag and open it up, looking for my phone. When I finally get to it I unlock it to see 26 Missed Calls, 15 voicemails, and 15 Text messages.

"What the fuuuu...?" I mumble as I scroll down the screen and see that every single one is from Jace.

'Where are you?!' -Text message

'Get your ass home right now!!' -Text message.

'Why aren't you answering to my txt?!?'-Text massage.

It keeps going until I get to one that startles me.

'Something really bad happened...'-Text message.

What...?

I open my voicemails and only hear Jace screaming for me to answer the phone, to get home and he keeps apologizing. Why does he keep apologizing? I decide not to debate and just decide to call him. Within the first 2 rings he answers the phone.

"VALERIE!? WE'RE THE FUCK ARE YOU!??! I'VE BEEN CALLING ALL NIGHT! YOU BETTER GET YOU ASS HOME IN THE NEXT FIVE MINUTES OR YOU GET NO BOXING FOR A FUCKING MONTH! YOU HEAR ME? A MONTH!!!" He yells then hangs up. Shit. What has him all worried? He has never ever, ever threatened to take away my boxing. Thats's the worst thing he can threaten to take away and he knows it.

"Whoa. I could hear the screaming from across town. Who was that? And why was he threading take boxing? Everyone that knows you knows thats a big no,no." He smirks while coming up to me. He now had some jeans on and nothing else. That's not like him.

I cant even reply. There's only one thing that comes to mind to say.

"Something wrong.." I whisper more to myself than anyone else.

"What? Whats wrong?" Oscars ask.

"Oscar, take me home.." I whisper getting into the passenger seat. I don't even close the door. I'm too deep into thought.

"Valerie...?" Oscar questions.

"JUST GET ME HOME TORRES!!" I yell and slam the door in his face. I am completely pissed that my brother, my one and only brother, would talk to me like that. He has never talk to me like that. And he never raises his voice at me. He promised he never would. Not after mom.

Oscar sprints to the other side of the car and slams his door shut. Then he turns on the car and speed out of his driveway. Not saying a word to me. Saying something to me while I'm mad is like sighing your own death warrant. You should never say anything to me right now. Now, if he's a smart kid he'll understand to not day anythi-

"Babe.. you really need to relax. Okay?"

"You really need to hurry the fuck up and get me home." I say through my gritted teeth.

He doesn't say a word for the rest of the ride. Within - I'd say- 3 min I was sprinting to my front porch and hoping that the door is locked so that I have some time to figure out what I'm going to say. Since faith had other thoughts, the door just had to be unlocked. I step in and automatically hear pacing coming from the kitchen. I take me shoes off at the door and through my bag on the sofa in the living room which just happens to be across from the kitchen.

"Soo...." I question as I walk into the kitchen and see Jace walking around the islands like a mad man.

"So? Thats all you want to say after what happened last night?" He asks stopping and sitting in a stool while raising an eyebrow.

"I told you not-" He cut me off. Thats something else he promised not to do.

"I don't give a single fuck what you said!," Wow "I called you, texted you, AND left you messages! I get a fucking phone call from the station that you arrested ,and I quote, 'She kicked one of our officers ass and then some tall mexican looking dude came and bailed her out. Cash'. How do you think that makes me feel to know that you cant even be reasonable for your own actions?!" He yelled while running his fingers through his hair and speaking with his hands.

"How many times have I bailed you out?! And I am-" He cut me off again.

"Thats why I'm leaving." He whispers.

"What?" I ask. He cant just leave me. I'm a teen. Where am I going to get money? How am I supposed to live without a brother, No parents, No relatives around, and an a retreating best friend.

"I'm leaving. Going out of town." He said still not looking at me dead in the eyes.

"What happened?" I question. I'm trying so hard not to cry but it's getting harder and harder by the second.

I'm leaving.

It's the only phrase that just keeps repeating itself. Over and over again.

"You wouldn't get it. You're too young to. But I have to go. I can't and won't be in this house anymore." He said while walking over to the corner of the kitchen and getting some suitcases in hand.

"Jace, how am I going to live?" I whisper while running my fingers through my fringe.

"You're a smart girl Valerie." He said while walking over to the front door.

*HONK*

"Well, that's for me." He smirks. Is he really just going to leave his little sister here? Alone... Again?

"Jace," I whisper wrapping my arms around his torso, "don't leave." I mumble in his chest.

He pulls apart starts and kisses the top of my forehead.

"Valerie, you're a smart girl. You'll figure out a way to get by. You need to stay strong. Okay? I'll be won't.... be back for a while. You need to figure out a way to live. Okay? I'm sorry I can't take you with me and I'm sorry I'm leaving you all alone to face the world. I'll call you soon to tell you what's going on. If you get a call from mom... or... dad, do not, under any circumstances answer it. Understood? I just want what's best for you. I love you baby sis. Never forget that." And with that he walks out. No good-bye. Just an I love you and don't forget that.

I don't even know why the fuck he leaving. No. I don't even know why the fuck he left. Does he even know what the fuck he's doing ?! He left me... Alone.

Like he promised he'd never do.
