FLASHBACK—
5 YEARS AGO—
"Grayson hide!" I yelled before the both of us ran upstairs and into our rooms.
I locked my bedroom door and tried to find a place to hid. Under my bed.
We heard footsteps coming up the stairs and I could hear my own heart beating so fast.
"Ethan, Grayson where are you?" I heard Andrews voice. He sounded so calm and innocent but I knew he was out to get us.
The door knob on my door was rattling and before I knew it, the door came flying across the room causing me to scream.
"Ethan where are you? I know you're in here." Andrew started trashing my room to shreds and he threw my dresser.
He slowly got down on the floor and I was so terrified.
Andrew lifted the bed sheets and looked under the bed where I was.
"I found you." He whispered before doing an evil laugh.
He grabbed my shirt and threw me against the wall. I didn't know what to do other than cry.
Slowly I turned my head and saw my mom standing by the door with her arms folded.
"Mom." My voice cracked as I begged for her help but she didn't.
"Please don't hurt me." I begged to Andrew and he laughed again before punching me and kicking me to the floor.

END OF FLASHBACK—
ETHANS P.O.V—
My body was so cold and I rubbed my hands together so they would warm up.
I looked at the time on my phone and it said 2:15am.
Woah, I've been here for over 10 hours.
I picked up all my stuff and got up from the floor whilst dusting off all the leaves on my jeans.
I hate my life.
It was already late so I started making my way home but I was still a little dizzy.

Slowly I opened the front door and threw my keys on the side.
Just as I went into the kitchen and turned the light on, Grayson was sitting at the table waiting for me.
"Grayson what the fuck?!" I jumped.
"Ethan I've been worried sick about you, where the fuck were you?"
I rolled my eyes "I was out."
I made my way to the refrigerator and got a bottled water out.
"Ethan you smell of cigarettes!"
"Then stay away from me then." I was quick to answer and I was about to storm out of the room but Grayson stopped me.
"Ethan we promised we wouldn't do this again-"
"So What Grayson! Just because you've stopped smoking doesn't mean I haven't!"
My voice echoed throughout the entire house.
"Where's Mom?" I asked But in a way that I didn't care anymore.
"She's taken Andrew out to the club downtown."
I scoffed "Typical."
I shook my head and dragged my feet upstairs and into my room.
The door to my room was open and I went inside and sat down on the bed. I opened the drawer next to me and got out an old dusty picture frame.
It was a picture of Grayson and I When we were 5 with our Dad. I wiped away the dust on the frame so I could see the picture clearer.
My eyes started tearing up and my tears started falling onto the picture frame.
Come on Ethan, you don't cry.
Quickly I wiped away my tears and put the picture back in the drawer like nothing happened.
YASMINES P.O.V—
I was at school and I followed Allison into the building.
"Yasmine you look like you haven't slept in days."
I rolled my eyes "Jeez Thanks Ally. I haven't slept because my Dad came home late last night and we sort of had an argument and..." I showed her a bruise on my ankle.
