Haii Guys! Please vote or comment or something ! Thank you so much for reading :D

        All I can feel is a throbbing to the side of my head. It hurt like h**l to be honest. I could hear angry voices and frantic voices to the side of me. I couldn't open my eyes and I was struggling to move. Oww! My head is so sore. I can't even remember as to how I am like this. Suddenly, I felt my eyes fluttering open and I looked up to see a worried Jace hovering above me. He sighed in relief as soon as he saw that I was awake. He ran his hand through his hair quickly as if he was trying to calm down.

'Are you okay? What happened? Oh god do you need a-' he ranted on until I cut him off trying to shut him up before my headache reached the intensity of a migraine.

'I'm fine. And as to what happened? I don't remember' I heard angry voices in the kitchen and I tuned in trying to make out words. 

'What the hell is wrong with you? What did you do to her? Do you want to go back to jail?' a very angry woman screeches. Could she not tone it down a bit? Even a tad? Apparently not. Great. Here comes my migraine.

'I didn't do anything to her. Mom, do you not trust me? And I won't be going back to jail. I have learned to be more careful' as soon as I heard that voice I started to panic. Ryan. It's as if all of this mornings occurrences come flooding back to my mind. Jace obvioulsy noticed me freaking out and he started to panic.

'Are you okay? MOM' a woman who looked to be in her mid-forties came running into the room and came to sit beside me whispering soothing words to get me to calm down. When I finally did she stood and looked at Jace.

'Take her home. She obviously shouldn't be here' and with that she walked back into the kitchen. So much for being soothing. 

        Jace looks at me apologetically and leans down to pick me up bridal style. I let out an involuntary squeak and I grip around his neck. We made our way towards the front the door but not before Jace got me a blanket and wrapped it around me to keep me warm. I snuggled into his chest feeling safe and at comfort.

'Jace?' I question as he makes his way towards my house which is just next door.

'Yeah?' he looks at me and forces a smile.

'Why didn't you tell me about your brother?' he visibly stiffens and stops abruptly. Soft subject is what I'm guessing.

'How do you know about him? He didn't touch you did he? Oh god I'm gonna kill-' I cut him off from his rant before he wakes the neighbours. Honestly, I can't wait to get inside and go straight to sleep. I'm exhausted. Aw s***! I just forgot Nick is gonna be mad knowing I was gone all night. Oops.

'No he didn't. He just told me he was your brother and that his name is Ryan. But Nick told me about him and I kinda freaked and....well....I kinda passed out' he looks at me sympathetically.

'Good. And well I just didn't want you to think that I was anything like him. Which I'm not, by the way' he rushes out and starts walking again.

'I can sense some sibling hatred' I laugh but am soon cut off as he gives me a stern look. Well then.

'Yeah well you wouldn't be happy as Larry when you find out your brother has raped an innocent underage girl' 

'Sorry' 

'It's not your fault. I'm sorry for going off on one on ya. It's just that he's done some awful things but my Mom still protects him. And do you know what's worse? She treats him as if he is the golden boy who could do nought wrong' It's my turn to look at him sympathetically. 

'I understand. Well not really but if you ever need a talk or just to get away from it all, you know where I am' I hug him tightly and realize we are stood in front of my door. Bed. Sleep. Yes!

'Thanks' he puts me down gently and I give him a peck on the cheek. 

        Suddenly, the door flys open displaying a very angry Nick. Well damn, someone hasn't had their morning dose of coffee. Don't say that. You'll only make him angrier. Of course I'm gonna say it! I love annoying him even in these times.

'Well damn, someone hasn't had their morning dose of coffee' I smirk up at him. He glares at me. Oh I'm so scared! Not.

'Shut up! Now you are going to tell me why you were out all night. And why you come home in his arms. You know what I told you!' Migraine is coming back.

'Oh sorry Dad!' Flinch. 'I didn't know I had to tell you. You can't just come waltzing back into my life after five years! You can't do that and try and be the caring older brother! Josh has done more for me than you ever have. You're supposed to be my legal guardian but you have done nought for me Nick! Don't pretend to care when all you do is go drinking every night!' I am on the brink of tears and my throat is sore from shouting.

'Look I'm sorry but-' 

'You don't look sorry! Just leave me alone Nick!' I said thank you to Jace quickly and stomped upstairs into my room.

        I know what I said to Nick was a bit harsh but it's true. Josh raised me from when I was only seven when he was only a kid himself whilst Nick went travelling the world. Josh always struggled for money but he always did his best to support us. I have a quick shower and then I make my way to my bed. I fall onto it and relax into the covers. Oh bed I have missed you. Just as I was about to sleep I realized something. I recognize Ryan from somewhere. I don't know where though. I fell into an uneasy sleep full with nightmares of the day my Mother and Father died in that crash. The crash I was also in but magically survived.
