I get up and walk over to the table she's sitting at, after I finish eating.
"Dallas Leigh Lovato!" I say, walking closer to her table, "Uhm, we need to talk." I grab her hand and go to my room, which thankfully, isn't far from the cafeteria.
"What's up Kenz?" She asks, sitting on my bed like nothing's wrong.
"What's up? That's all you have to sat for yourself? Dal, what the hell are you doing here? As far as I knew, I was the only one in the family that's currently fucked up!?!" I exclaimed.
"See! That's it. Right there. 'As far as you knew.' You didn't know Kenz. Nobody did. I told everyone this morning. That's why we weren't there when you woke up. Kenzie, you, Dem and mom aren't the only ones in this family with emotional issues. Babygirl, I self harm. I have ever since the day mom first wanted to send you here, after you passed out on your bathroom floor. I couldn't tell you. I felt like it was my fault you were so broken and there was nothing I could do about it. I'm sorry babygirl." Dallas said, breaking down into tears.
All I could do was hug her, I was speechless. My big sister was hurting herself because of me. How could I be so stupid?! I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, hoping it was Demi.
From: Demetria.<3
What's up babygirl? Wanna call me so it's easier? How'd dinner go?
I just called her, not bothering to tell her beforehand. Two rings later, Demi's voice filled my ear.
"Hey babygirl, what's up?"
"Dallas."
"What about her Kenz?"
"She's here Dem. Dallas is in TK. Dem, she self harms. How I could I not notice? I'm the worst sister ever." I cried as I played with Dallas' hair.
"I...she what? No, not Dallas. She's the strongest aside from dad and Maddie. Tell me you're joking Kenz. Please." Demi said, I could hear her fighting back tears, but I just let mine flow.
"Do you honestly think I'd joke about this Demetria? No. Call mom and ask her. Dallas just told me the full story, I honestly can't believe it. I'll talk to you later, kay babe?"
"Okay, I'll let you know what mom says. I love you babygirl."
I unwind my arms from Dallas, making her sit up.
"Dal, we need to talk. Like now."
"I already told you what happen Kenz, what else is there to talk about?" Dallas screamed.
"Okay, one - DON'T scream at me Dallas Leigh. Second - Demi didn't know, did she?"
"Sorry Kenz. I'm just freaking out a little. No, Demi didn't know. I just told everybody this morning and Demi was at home with you. I'm sorry Kenz."
"No, don't apologize Dal, it's fine. I promise. I just, I wish you would've told me, or Demi. We could've helped you Dally." I told her, grabbing her hands.
"I was scared Kenz. I'm sorry I didn't tell you guys. I should've." Dallas said, wiping a few of her tears away.
"Dal, it's okay. All that matters now is that you're getting help." After I finished that sentence, Molly walked into out room and straight to her bed, shoving her headphones in her ears. "Uh, hey Dal? I'll talk to you later, kay?" She nodded and walked out of the room.
