Kale's pov.

I was baffled by Michael's question. Why was he asking such a question?

"Um, why?" I answered his question with another question. Smart Kale.

"Just answer the question Kale." He was clearly not messing around, but who jokes about suicide?

"Well yeah, he's depressed if you didn't know, and he cuts. Don't use fast body motions with him, he'll flinch and get scared. Oh also don't yell, he hates yelling. He's fragile. He's very broken. And no matter how many times I pick up the pieces, he just breaks all over again." I explained to him.

"Oh..." Michael said draining out the 'oh' with a sad tone.

"Yeah why'd you ask?" I ask curious.

"Well it's just, he had a nightmare, and he committed suicide in it..." He briefly explained.

"Why'd he commit suicide in his dream?" I said shocked.

"Um, because you told him too..." Michael almost mumbling it, but I heard him nice and clear.

"What? Why?" I said tears welling in my eyes. I love Raegan. He's like my brother. The last thing I'd ever say to him, is that. I will not repeat those words. I'm just sad that he'd think that of me. Why did he? Did I do something?

"Well he didn't say but in the dream he said you acted like you hated him. Did anything happen last night that would seem like you hate him?" Michael questioned.

"Well all we did yesterday was clean and cook. All we did is clean. We didn't talk to each other. Other then deciding what to make for dinner. Then we served you guys. Cleaned up your dishes and ate ourselves. Raegan didn't eat much, but I didn't question it. Then Jack came and talked to me, for what seemed like hours. And I passed out in his room. I really did nothing to him, so I don't see why he would think I hate him." I stated.

"Wait who cleaned up then last night?" Michael interrogated me.

"Me and Raegan of course." I said in a obvious tone, like the one you use when saying 'duh bitch who else?'

"No when you guys were done eating." Michael said.

"Oh I don't know." I told him.

"I'm guessing Raegan did, because when I was talking to Ashton this morning, he said he came down last night and it was spotless. Did you even help him?" Michael asked with hope.

"No I was too busy talking with Jack..." I trailed off.

"Oh so you just ignored Raegan, and left him to clean everything up by himself." Michael said annoyed and irritated.

"Look, I'm sorry, but Raegan didn't ask for help, okay?" I said now getting mad as well.

"He shouldn't have too, you both live here, your guys job is to clean and cook. You guys are maids and chefs, he doesn't need to ask because it's your job. And if your not doing your job then I'm giving you a warning to do so. The next time you won't be so lucky to get off with a warning." Michael stated with a tone that only a strict father would have. I nodded.

"Now get out of here and send Raegan in, and if he's cleaning take over his position." Michael said. I nodded again.

I went to downstairs to find Raegan, but when I found him I was baffled and confused.

Raegan's pov.

"Hi Raegan." Justin giggled. I blushed.

"Oh, um, hi Justin..." I said embarrassed that I was blushing at such a small thing.

"What are you doing?" Justin asked with a smile.

"I was just going to get started to clean the kitchen." I answered him.

"You want some company?" He questioned.

"Um sure?" I answered confused of why he wanted to talk to me. But it's nice, I guess. He walked with me to the kitchen since between the kitchen and the dinning room there's the laundry room and a bathroom. We walked down the hallway which lead to the kitchen. I began cleaning, while Justin began telling funny stories and honestly they were really funny, and you know what. For the first time in a really long time, I actually felt happy and like I belonged somewhere.

"Okay and then Danny, fell down the stairs, and almost died." Justin said laughing really hard. I laughed with him.

"But he didn't, and he got in big trouble from Ashton, because he broke his arm." Justin's laughed faded. We both caught our breathe, before we could pass out. I was finished cleaning, I was now just standing in the kitchen laughing with Justin. He was really funny and adorable. He told me about this one time, these boys hit on them at the skate park, and how they then got Ashton to beat them up. Because Justin said the insulted them. Oh and he told about the time he found Danny and his boyfriend Alex frickle fracking. We laughed so hard. Then Kale came, I didn't hate Kale, I just felt awkward around him.

"Michael wants to see you." He said.

"Okay, well bye Justin I'll talk to you later." I smiled and waved at him and Kale. Kale kinda glared at me though, and I felt like my dream was coming true. I walked up to Michael's room and sat down on his bed where he was waiting.

"Hey Raegan." Michael said casually.

"Hey Mike what'd you want me for." Still giddy from mine and Justin laughing session.

"I want a full explanation of your dream." He said seriously.

"Okay well it started off with me waking up and going down stairs, because Justin, Danny and Ryan had just had a sleep over. So I was cleaning up they're mess. Kale came down and started insulting me. Then I walked in to clean the kitchen and he told me I was pathetic and dumb and he didn't know why he was my friend. Then when he was about to leave he told me to kill myself and I did." I told him, with tears streaming down my face.

"I can't even look at him the same, all I think is those words he said to me in my dream." I cried and Michael hugged me, comforting me.

"Raegan if it makes you more comfortable I'll take Kale back to Maryland?" He suggested. I was scared because that's what Kale's wanted this whole time.

"Um I don't know, don't we need his input on this?" I asked.

"Well yeah your right. Here hold on I'm gonna yell so just don't get scared." Michael said.

"KALE COME BACK UP HERE!!!!" Michael screamed. Kale came rushing in.

"Yes." Kale said.

"Do you want to go home." Michael asked Kale.

"Well duh." Kale said in a sassy tone.

"But I won't go without Raegan." He said stubbornly. Michael rolled his eyes.

"It's either you go home alone or you both stay here. What will it be Kale." Michael said in a dominating voice.

"I'll um, I'll-." Kale couldn't complete his sentence. He didn't know how to answer this. Did he want to stay? Or did he want to go home, but without Raegan? I looked at Kale. He looked at me, his face written with apologies. He spoke.

"I'll- I'll um..." But before he could finish a loud gun shot was heard.
