~2 weeks after~

I wake up at 3 am to Bruce calling me. I pick up my phone when he hangs up and I see missed calls from him, Lex and Lilac. Lots of them. I put my phone on do not disturb and grab my earbuds. I'm not mad at them, I'm just mad at myself. I hurt Lilac by liking Jonas. I hurt Bruce by not accepting his demons and secrets. I hurt Lex by making him worry. He always has to make sure I'm ok and not being kidnapped or whatever. I put in my earbuds and turn on Pandora. This Is Gospel turns on and I quietly hum along to the lyrics. If you love me let me goooooo. I hear a knocking at my front door and get up to answer it. I open the door to see an angry Lex barge in. "Are you ok?" I ask. He looks at me and yells "NO! I just drove 100 miles an hour to make sure that you weren't dead! You scared me!". I realize that I've kinda avoided him recently... "are you doing that thing where you push people away? Because it SUCKS! Lena, I know you're upset but you need to grow up and stop acting like a BABY!" Lex yells out of breath. "I'm your sister, not your daughter! I don't have to listen to you!" I yell back. "Yeah you are my sister, but I grew up in the role of your father! I've taken care of you your entire life! So yeah, I do worry about you!" Lex yells agitatedly. "I took care of myself thank you very much!" I yell agitated also. "You know Lena, I wish you werent even born!" Lex yells really loud. I feel my eyes fill with tears and I whisper "Lex you should leave". As he walks out I throw a glass at him.  I close the door and whisper "Maybe I wish I wasn't either"
