" C'mon guys, Where is Kate?" He said again.

" Check right here," said a girl's voice.

Both mine and Jack's heads spinned around to where the voice came from.

" Well.. well .. well. . . Isn't it Mrs. Cameron Cartwrite. You know? I've heard a lot about you.... " Kate said.

I don't reply. I just stand dumbfounded.

" Yea, you.. your brother," she pauses. " Your dad. . . "

" Kate," Jack begins.

" Do you know why your even here? .. .. .. Did the cops ever tell you how dad died? . . . Do you know what made us take you away? Because," she takes a breath and stares me straight in the eye. " I do. . . We all do."

" Kate! Just drop it!" Jack buts in.

" Why? There the ones into this mess!" Kate says.

" What is she talking about?" I ask. 

" Uh. . That's not something that I should tell you. . " he tried to explain.

" What's that suppose to mean?! Our lives are on the line because of these bastards!" Kate says.

" Why is sh-" I barely say, before being interrupted.

" Guys?! W-why are y-you being Soooo loud?" ask a drunk and obviously high Jason.

" Nothing.. Jason. Bro, you need to go lay down." Jack commanded him.

" Naw.. Man! I'm fine! Who's messing with my girl?" he said swinging a arm over my shoulder.

" One. I'm not your girl. Two. Don't touch me." I say.

" YOU GO GIRL!! TELL THAT GUY TO LOOSE IT!" Ray yelled.

" Cameron.. Cameron, Cam. . . You'll learn all you have to know. I'll tell you myself. Let's just forget it for now..." Jack practically begging me.

I nod. ' I'm so confused. . . '  How could my family be in this? Kate was right. The night the cop that told me about what happened to my dad, never really told my happened to him. . . How would she know? Can't I just be normal again? But I can't.. .. I stand to watch her, Jason. . blame me for things that I don't even know about. .

" I'm going to my room." I say.

Then, for the first time in the whole day, silence exposed us. Leaving us blinded and scared. Only the past experiences are left to haunt us.

I can't. I can't stay in this hollow silence anymore. So, I run. Up the stares. Down the hall way. Into my room. And slaming and locking the door. 'This is to much. . . ' Now in the room I fell to the ground with my back to the wall and my knees to my chest. ' Only if your here Dad,' I beg the sky. ' you could explain everything to me..'  How could anyone keep so many secrets. . . . Did Dad keep secrets from me?  

*~*~* DOOR NOB RATLES *~*~*

" Cameron," came from the other side of the door.

" Leave me alone. . ." I whimper.

" Cameron, unlock the door," he said again.

I decide to stay quiet. To make a sound.

" Cameron. Open the damn door. I'm tired of waiting, and I've gotta lot of explaining ta'do,"

It's Jason. I guess Jack or someone got him sobered up.
