We got to the hospital shortly after we got home, Daddy looked really mad after I told him what happened.

"Daddy, You look mad." I told him.

"I am! Not at you, But just the fact that you've been getting bullied now ever since we put you into school. And I'm also upset because I won't be there for you when we go on tour, I have to leave you behind and, I just wish things were different for you at school." Daddy sighed.

"It's okay daddy. Even when you go on tour, I'll still have you to talk to. I can call and text you anytime I'm missing you or having a bad day. And I have mom to help me out and Casey here for me as well. I won't be entirely alone." I told him.

"I know, But you come to me with all your problems and you rely on me and your uncles for helping you out, And I know Rachel is here too, But you two aren't very close and...."

"Daddy, slow down. Please don't reconsider doing this tour. This is what you've been working for basically your whole life. And now that you've got the fame and the fans, Do what you love. Go on tour next week. Make the world happy, The world and you deserve it."

"Thank you, Molly. I'll make sure to text you and call you any chance I get. And promise me, If things go south for you while I'm gone, You won't take things to the extreme, Okay?"

"Okay. I promise." I said.

"That's my girl, Now let's go get you checked out. They're calling your name." Daddy said.

They ran a few tests and did a physical exam on my ribs and sure enough, When they lifted my shirt up a little my sides were bruised and very purple.

"Yep, Looks like she's got bruised ribs. Mr.Clifford, Make sure she doesn't run, Or do any physical activity for the next month or so. She could possibly make it worse if she does. Okay?" She said.

"Okay! Thank you." Daddy said.

After the exam daddy took me out to this cute little diner downtown.

"This is a cute little place." I told daddy.

"Yeah! And did you know I took mom here on our first date?" Daddy asked.

"Really? That's so cute!" I said.

"Hello, What can I get for you two today?" The waiter asked.

"I would like a cheeseburger and fries." Daddy said.

"And I'd like a BLT, please." I said.

"Sure thing sweetie. I'll bring that right out for you when it's done." The waiter said and walked off.

When we were waiting for our food I looked out the window and noticed a bunch of flashing lights and people rushing in the diner.

"Daddy, What's going on?" I asked.

"Oh no! They've spotted us! They're paparazzi, Stay hidden I'll see if I can get rid of them." Daddy told me.

I did as he said and to say my anxiety kinda kicked in would be an understatement. People pushed through daddy and came over to me shoving microphones in my face.

"Molly, Is it true you've been beaten up now twice at school?"

"Molly, How are you going to handle being away from your dad when he goes on tour?"

"Is it true that you are hated by everyone in your school?"

They all started shouting different things, I couldn't keep up. I eventually just curled up in a ball on the ground, Ignoring the pain in my side and just laid there. "Go away, Go away" "please stop talking to me" I was thinking as I was rocking back and forth on the ground.

I didn't even notice I was being carried by someone until the cool fall air hit my face, I looked up to see that it was uncle Ashy carrying me.

"How did you get here, Ashy?" I asked.

"Daddy called us to come and get you out of there. Are you okay, Sweetie?" He asked.

"I'm fine. I just had a little bit of anxiety because they kept asking me questions and swarming me. I couldn't handle that." I said.

"It's okay sweetie, We can't even handle that. It's very overwhelming." Ashy said honestly.

"Hey baby girl, I'm so sorry that happened. I tried to get them to stop but I lost you in the crowed. Are you okay?" I heard daddy ask.

"It's okay, Daddy. I'm okay now." I said.

"Oh, Good. Don't worry, That won't happen again." Daddy said while giving me a hug.

"Let's go home, Okay?" Lukey said.

"Okay, Can we watch a movie or something when we get back? I just wanna relax." I said.

"Sure, We'll just have a family movie day, Okay?" Daddy said.

"Yeah, That sounds great. Let's go!" Ashy said.

We got home and mom started asking questions why I looked so scared. But daddy just told her the truth and she seemed a little concerned for us, But soon relaxed as we all sat down in the living room for a movie.

I didn't even watch the movie, I just fell asleep curled up to uncle Ashy. He kept rubbing my back and whispering nice things to me until I fell asleep.

"I'm gonna bring her up to her room. She looks just exhausted." Ashy whispered.

When we reached my room, I asked Ashy to stay for a second.

"Ashy? Do you think daddy and mom get annoyed with me and my problems I've been having?" I asked.

"Oh, No, No sweetie. They love you so much. You have no idea how much they love you. And your uncles and I love you just as much. Ever since you came into our lives you've changed it for the better. We all love you so very much. We'd do anything for you. Don't apologize for having some issues with kids at school. You just need to have someone to defend you when those kids pick on you. And luckily you have Casey for that. Please don't even think you are too much for us to handle, Okay? We would hate to see you upset with living with us." Ashy said.

"Thank you Ashy, I needed to hear that. I'll try to stand up for myself at school. And hopefully I can slap some sense into that girl to leave me alone."

"That's my girl. Now get some sleep. We'll be in the living room of you need us. Goodnight Molly." Ashy said.

"Goodnight Ashy." I said and let the sleep take over.

I didn't even realize how lucky I am to have a family like this. Even though my sister and brother annoy me sometimes, They still have my back. And with daddy and my uncles all ways having the right things to say and do, It makes things a lot better. And I'm starting to really love Rachel too. She's all ways here for me, And she loves me like I'm her own. This family means the world to me, And nobody is going to take that away from me.
