"What the hell, Ace?!" William yelled.

"I-I thought it would help me.." I mumbled.

"WELL IT DOESN'T!" He screamed. I cowered as he yelled and eyed my arm. He sighed and his eyes grew soft again.

"I'm sorry.. I- I used to do it, but stopped when my mom found out, and I thought it could help me a bit. It was stupid, I know, but it works.." I explained, now that he was calm.

"What drew you to that?" He asked, now sitting on the couch next to me.

"My life is quite fucked up." I began. He found me cutting in my room, but it was just a quick cut, and it was, actually, an accidental cut. The others, not so much. He then dragged me out of my room and check my arm. At first, he came for Anna, but when I explained she'd be at her Mom's for the weekend, he just made himself comfy.

"You can tell me, ya know." He said, soothingly. He and I had established a really great friendship these past 7 months, yet still, his voice messes me up in the best way possible. I've learnt to hide it because he's with my best friend. I could never do her like that. NEVER.

"Ehh.." I hesitated.

"Come onnnn, Ac-" He began to place his hand on top of mine before the door flew open. Anna walked in and eyed us for a second. William didn't move his hand or break eye contact. I was the one to look and move my hand.

"What was...?" She asked.

"I found her c-" I clasped my hand over his mouth and gave him the feather glare. When he gave me a pissed look, I followed off that glare with a pleasing look. His eyes softened and he sighed. I moved my hand off of his mouth and began to walk off to my room.

"Cooking.." I mumbled.

"ACE! What did we agree on?!" She yelled.

"That I can't cook until you think I won't burn down the apartment.." I grumbled. William began to laugh like crazy and I flipped him off. I threw my phone on my bed and jumped on it right after. "I'll sleep, I guess.." I mumbled.

Time skip to Midnight*

I woke up to a cold breeze, making me shiver. I closed the window making sure not to slam it, and went to the kitchen. I began to make myself some café when I heard them arguing.

"What? You're putting that over me?" She semi-yelled.

"No! Baby, listen to me and maybe you'd get wh-"

"Shut up!" She yelled. I could only imagine what Hayden did to me that time, and I knew I had to fix whatever was happening between them. I burst into their room and found Anna standing up while Will was half naked, but the blanket covered him.

"What is going on?" I asked. "I- I feel like the little kid listening in on her parents fighting!" I yelled. Anna's harsh eyes met mine and they softened for a second. She straightened up and looked down.

"Sorry." She whispered.

"Don't be sorry, just- just fix this!" I said. I walked over to her and picked her head up. "Listen to him. Why? Because if I had listened to Hayden, I would be at home. With him. Feeling loved. At least you have someone.. Don't screw it up over something as stupid as not listening.." I scolded. She didn't understand how lucky she had everything! She nodded and I walked out the of room. Then I proceeded to bang my head on the kitchen counter.

"I need a man.." I grumbled. I then took my café and went back to my room. As I sipped it, quite loudly, I heard faint screams in the background. It wasn't from Anna and Will's room, but from outside. I peeped through my curtain, like the lurker I am, and found a few fangirls screaming for Will. I groaned, got dressed (well, grabbed whatever I found on the floor from yesterday), threw on my converse and headed downstairs. Not even Julian went through this shit, but I had to. I froze before walking out of my room. I guess I could head to my interview after this. I was interviewing to be an assistant to this pretty well known singer. Julian actually got me this opportunity, so god bless him. I changed into something more appropriate and then walked to Anna and Wills room again.
