I was on my feet quickly, grabbing paper towels and heading to Joseph. He still didn't move, he just looked down at me as I picked up the larger pieces on the glass and placed it on a few paper towels and using others to absorb the liquid.

"Y-youre going to hurt yourself, y-you're going to cut yourself" he stuttered but I didnt listen.

"Casey, you're going to hurt yourself!" He rose his voice a little.

My head snapped up at him.

"My name is Eden" I said confused, giving him a startled look as well since he rose his voice at me.

From looking up at him I had managed to put my hand on the floor, on some glass, I hissed then picked up my hand. A piece of glass was dug inside my palm, the lemon of the lemonade only made it sting.

My hand started shaking as I started bleeding.

"Eden.. Oh shit I'm sorry. Seth!" Joseph shouted for his brother.

Seth came running in, "What did you drop- Eden? Oh my god are you okay?" He rushed to me then saw my palm.

"Joseph what did you do?!" He shouted at his brother.

"Seth, it wasn't him, it was me, I just wanted to help" I said to him.

"He could have picked it up so you wouldn't have had to" he said grabbing me gently by my wrists and helping me up.

"Come, let me help you with that. Joe clean this up, now" Seth said as he lead me to a hall way connected to the living room.

"Where- where are we going?" I asked nervously. "To my bedroom, I have a first aid kit in there" he said pushing open a door, he lead me inside and sat me down on his bed, as he was pulling out whatever he needed I was looking around at his posters , guitars, basses , piano/keyboard, computer, game systems.

"Being the brother of a teacher benefits you don't it?" I asked.

"Yeah and the fact that my parents are passing so" he shrugged his shoulder and focused on just helping me.

He dropped alcohol on my wound and as I cried in pain from that he managed to wedge out the glass from my palm then put some kind of ointment on it then soon wrapped it in gauze.

"Done" he said putting everything away and throwing away the glass.

"Thank you" I said to him, still feeling my eyes stinging.

He looked at me sympathetically, then grabbed a tissue from a tissue box he had near by, then approached me, sitting down besides me, he turned to me then dried my eyes.

"Why are you being so nice?" I asked him.

He sighed, "just because we argue, it doesn't mean you deserve to be in pain" he said flatly.

I looked down at my palm, that when Seth's door opened, we both looked towards the door seeing Joseph there. I stood up, "Are you okay?" I asked him.

"Yes, are you?" He walked towards me, Seth stood up. "Joseph" he warned. Joseph noticed my eyes and he looked at his brother.
