Mikey's pov
After the "fight" Carter and I had yesterday it made me think who would have won if we finished it. I walked over to my computer thinking of something else, I need to check my YouTube channel anyway.
As I was scrolling through the comments of my last video it was just hate comment after hate comment. I started to read some of them and think could it be true.
'Oh my god how can Jack and Ethan stand her she is so annoying and stupid'
'They're only friends with her because they feel bad for her'
'No one loves her'
'Delete your channel, no actually delete your life'
I finally closed my laptop not wanting to read anymore, but I couldn't help but think is it true. I feel like doing something that I haven't done since Jon adopted me. I head downstairs, with my headphones in, singing along to Screen by Twenty Øne Piløts.

'I do not know why I would go
In front of you and hide my soul
'Cause you're the only one who knows it,
Yeah you're the only one who knows it

And I will hide behind my pride
Don't know why I think I can lie
'Cause there's a screen on my chest
Yeah there's a screen on my chest

I'm standing in front of you
I'm standing in front of you
I'm trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool

I'm standing in front of you
Oh I'm standing in front of you
I'm trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool

I can't see past my own nose, I'm seeing everything in slo-mo
Look out below crashing down to the ground just like a vertical locomotive
That's a train, am I painting the picture that's in my brain?
A train from the sky, locomotive, my motives are insane
My flow's not great, okay, I conversate with people
Who know if I flow on a song I'll get no radio play
While you're doing fine, there's some people and I
Who have a really tough time getting through this life

So excuse us while we sing to the sky

I'm standing in front of you
I'm standing in front of you
I'm trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool

I'm standing in front of you
Oh I'm standing in front of you
Oh I'm trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool

Oh oh oh
We're broken
We're broken
We're broken
We're broken people, oh
We're broken people, oh

We're broken
We're broken
We're broken
We're broken people, oh
We're broken people, oh yeah

We're broken
We're broken
We're broken
We're broken people, oh
We're broken people, oh yeah

I'm standing in front of you
I'm standing in front of you
I'm trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool

I'm standing in front of you
I'm standing in front of you
Oh I'm trying to be so cool
Everything together trying to be so cool'

When I was done singing I looked around and saw the guys looking at me in shock.
"What?" I asked looking at them confused on what they were shocked about.
"You're just.... beautiful," Carter said.
"U-um n-no I'm not," I said blushing.
"Yes you are," he said pecking my cheek.
"I guess," I said feeling insecure that people other than Mark and them heard me sing.
"You're fine, kitten," he said rubbing circles into my back.
"Okay can we change the subject?" I asked.
"To what?" Carter asked.
"Anything," I said.
"Hungry, love?" he asked.
"LET'S GET LITTLE CAESAR'S!" I yelled.
"Nope, I'm done. I just can't. I will, but only for you," he said picking up the phone. "What do you want?" he asked.
"Everything."
"How much of this you paying?" he said sarcastically raising an eyebrow.
"None cuz I stole Tyler's credit card," I whispered.
"This is why I freaking love you," he said kissing my lips.
"I be the best Irish Australian ninja there is," I said.
"You're so weird," he said.
"I know."
"I still love you though," he said. I thought about the hate comments from earlier about no one loving me.
"I-i know," I said sounding a little sad.
"What's wrong?" he asked grabbing my wrists.
"It's nothing."
"Something is wrong. Tell me now," he said looking concerned.
"Nothin just some stupid comments on my last video," I said looking down towards my wrist think about doing the thing i don't want to do. He lifted my chin up.
"Show me the comments," he said.
"Okay," I said while taking him to my room to get my laptop. I handed my laptop to Carter so he could read the comments.
I couldn't tell what emotion he had but it didn't look good.
"Well....." he said. His eyes were glassy.
"What?" I asked nervously.
"Don't let it get to you, kitten," he said.
"I won't," I said even though I was lying. I couldn't let him see.
"Please don't," he said hugging me tight. "I love you so much."
"Don't what?" I asked trying to play it off even though I knew what he meant.
"Good girl," he said starting to cry.
"Don't cry please," I said.
"I can't help it," he said.
"Let's just go do something else and forget about this," I said.
"Can I kiss you?" Carter asked.
"Y-yes," I said nervously cuz it was my first kiss. He kissed my lips then Jon and Brian walked in.

Jon's pov
Brian and I went to check on Carter and Mikey because we hadn't seen them for about 30 minutes. We walked in Mikey's room only to see her and Carter kissing.
"What the fuck is going on?" Brian asked before I could say anything
"Nothing," Carter said his eyes wide and cheeks flushed.
"Sure," I said glaring at him a little cuz I was protective over Mikey since she is my daughter.
"Just a friendly kiss is all," he said.
"Don't push it," I told Carter.
"No promises," he said biting his bottom lip.
I glared at him as Brian went to say something.
"Mikey, can you give us a moment alone with Carter please?" Brian asked.
"Y-yeah. Dad don't kill him," Mikey said looking at me.
"Carter, why?" Brian asked.
"Why what?" Carter asked.
"Why did you kiss her?" he asked.
"B-because I um-" he started before I interrupted him.
"Because you what?" I asked.
"I love her...." he said trailing off. I just stood there shocked.
"How long?" Brian asked.
"Since I saw those eyes....." he admitted. I just looked at him with no emotion, trying to think about what to say.
"S-sorry," he said looking down at the floor.
"Just don't hurt her. She doesn't need anymore pain in her life," I said.
"Are you serious!?" he snapped.
I just looked at him while Brian talked.
"Carter calm down," Brian said.
"No! You think I would ever hurt her?!" he screamed.
"I'M NOT SAYING YOU WOULD, BUT THERE ARE LITTLE DETAILS THAT SHE HASN'T TOLD YOU AND YOU COULD EASILY HURT HER," I yelled back.
"Go away!" He ran out of the room and slammed the bathroom door shut. All you could hear was crying. I looked at Brian.
"I'm sorry dude, wasn't trying to upset him," I said feeling a little guilty.
"It's fine. I'll go talk to him. You go talk to Mikey. I think she heard everything," Brian said.
"Okay," I said.

Mikey's pov
"Hey, Mikey, could we talk?" Jon asked.
"Go away." I said.
"Come on please?" he asked.
"Fine...." I said.
"Are you okay?" he asked clearly nervous and worried about my answer. I shrugged my shoulders. "How much of it did you hear?" he asked.
"All of it," I said a little annoyed.
"Oh... um I'm sorry and I know that I need to apologize to Carter too, but I just wanted you to know I didn't want us to start fighting," he said with glossy eyes.
"Okay."
"Is there anything else you want to talk about?"
"No could you just leave me alone please?" I asked. After he left, all the hate comments just came back. I really wanted to do it, but I promised Jack I wouldn't do it again. I started crying so I Skyped Jack, Mark, Ethan, Felix, Cry, Wade, Bob, JP, Gar, Patrick, Max, Dlive, and Ken. When they answered, they knew something was wrong.

Jack: Hush little baby
Mark: Don't you cry
Ethan: Don't cut your arms
Felix: Don't say goodbye
Cry: Put down the razor
Wade: Put down that light
Bob: It may be hard
Jp: But you'll win this fight
Gar: We'll be right here
Patrick: Through thick and thin
Max: Have no fear
Dlive: Have strength from within
Ken: Please,we're begging you,stay with us
All: We all love you just don't give up
