The next day

Valeria's pov

Travis stayed out of school today because he was 'sick'. Dad told me to stay home to keep an eye on the house. He never told us where he was going anyway, most likely out to a bar to get drunk and try to beat on us later at night. Though it was 6 am I went to my suit cases straight away, "Travis!" I knocked on his door, seeing it was cracked open so I opened it up more and walked in. The covers were over his whole body. I sneaked over to him and grabbed at the edge and quickly yanked the cover off, exposing his skin to the cold air.

 When it comes to pajamas, Travis doesn't care about them, he loves sweat pants though. Just sweat pants and a T shirt (i feel awkward lol) "¡Para de hacer eso! (Stop doing that!)" he yells, tiredly, "¡Esta es la mañana en que estamos libres por una vez, así que levántate, estoy enviando nuestras cosas a mi casa! (This is the morning we're free for once, so get up, I'm sending our things home!)"

 "¡LEVÁNTATE! (GET UP!)"

 "No!" he yanks the covers back on him. He had his back turned to me the whole time, "Come on Travis!"

 "I don't feel great" "Stop with the jokes Travis" I walk over to his closet, opening it, my eyes widen a bit, not used to going in his closet. One whole side was empty and the other was half way empty, just thousands of hangers. 

"I'm surprised you was packin'." I whisper to myself. I already had everything packed, except a few decorations in my room, I just needed to put my stuff in my trunk, without getting caught, and today was the day to do it. I looked behind me, and saw Travis still in bed, I walked in some more, just being my curious self. "?!" 

I gasp almost, tripping over something, I look back on the floor seeing a loose floor board on the shining wooden floor. I look to make sure Travis was still in bed, and bend down to the floor, quietly lifting the floor piece, a small bag and a pill bottle. I looked at the bottle, his medication, looking at the side effects, looking at one that caught my eye: CAN CAUSE MILD TO SEVERE DROWSINESS. DO NOT TAKE WITH ALCOHOL OR ANY OTHER ALCOHOLIC DRINKS.

  I looked in the bag, marijuana joints and a small pack of some white powder. My fingers trembled, I heard a rustle, I looked back seeing Travis move around in the bed, so I quickly put everything back in its place, including the floorboard. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and put it on the floor face down, 

"Val, what cha doing?" he slurs out. "Er," I stood up and picked up my phone from the floor, "I dropped my phone, just fell out of my pocket." I wave it as I exited the closet. "You're still sleep?" "Es seis de la mañana, (It's six in the morning) why are you starting so early?" 

 "Fine!" I huff, "I give up! Its up to you if you want to start now! We have all day. I'm gonna be gone for like 10 minutes-" 

"Where you going?"

 "I'm bringing my stuff to my house, and the guys are gonna move my stuff in" "Don't go by yourself!" "We can't let them know where you live! We'll have burglars day and night! It'll be very short!" I walk out of his room, "Fine I'm just gonna go back to sleep" I closed his door and went to my room took a shower and got dressed.

By the time I came back, I heard a noise in the kitchen. I walked fast, and couldn't run since I had on heels. I took both of them off in the process, and raised my hand with one of the heels, there goes Travis, in a chair, sleeping on the counter. He still had a half- empty bottle in his hand. Don't tell me he went into the wine cabinet again. 

"Travis! Wake up! I can't leave you for like 10 minutes and this happens." I go to him, and try to take the bottle out of his hand, he must've been awake the whole time because he had the hulk grip on the bottle!

 He sits up and takes the bottle away from me, "No! My juice!" 

"That's. Not. Juice. Travis." 

"No its juice! You want some or nah?" he slurrs out, laughing. I turn up my nose, "Never, and you shouldn't be drinking this! Give me the bottle!" I reach for it, he quickly stands up and raises it in the air. "Grr! Travis give me the bottle! NOW!" 

 "I don't have time for your little rage Val." he knew I couldn't reach it, I was a tall girl myself, both of our parents was on the tall side. I was taller than most of the girls at school, and many of the guys tried to flirt with me, but it never worked. This didn't match Travis' height, he's a bit taller than dad, but they're both still the same height. 

I reached my hardest and still couldn't reach the bottle. "Nice try, sis, but its not working. You can't help me!" he ruffles my hair. I huffed out a breath in frustration, giving up and sending him an angry look. "Travis, you know you can't drink that with your medicine! You saw what happened last time! You ended up in the hospital for a whole week! I don't want to lose you!" I sniff. 

His face dropped a bit, "It would've been better if I was gone, then you wouldn't have to worry about me-" "Stop talking like that!" I raise my voice, "The reason I'm moving both of us out was for you! I did all of this!" I start yelling, "I did this for you! So you could be happy! And now you're just drinking away your problems, wasting yourself! You have so much ahead of you and you don't even know it yet!" my voice was breaking a little, "Yeah, death" I did it before I knew it and smack him in the face, I wanted to remind him of what happened the other night, "That was because of you." 

I hiss and storm off, hearing him laugh. He didn't used to be like this, but ever since mom was gone he just becan to lose himself and dads drinking habit became worse.
