"Hey baby, did you hear what Alex was saying over the phone to us the other day?" ~I asked walking into the kitchen and looking at Daniel.

"No, I zoned out when he said something happened to Caleb. Did you?" ~Daniel.

"Yeah, Caleb called Alex and said he couldn't deal with stuff anymore, that he didn't feel like anyone wanted him here... Like everything was too stressful." ~Fallon.

Daniel sighed and grabbed my hand pulling me closer and kissing the side of my head softly.

He rubbed my knuckles with his thumb as we looked at each other at the same time.

"Should we check his room while he's at school?" ~I asked and Daniel nodded.

We stood up and headed upstairs, walking to Caleb's room and heading inside.

His room was very tidy, everything had its own place, in fact, it was cleaner than any of the rooms in our house.

I looked around as Daniel started searching through drawers, I began looking through his cupboards.

Daniel pulled something out of the bottom drawer of his bedside table and looked at me.

"He keeps a journal, maybe he writes his feelings down in here." ~Daniel.

"Should we look, what if it's personal?" ~Fallon.

Daniel ignored me and sat on Caleb's bed, reading through the pages as I sat down next to him.

It felt wrong, looking through his journal, I wouldn't like it if my parents did this to me.

Then we turned into the middle page and three blades dropped out of the middle and onto the floor.

Daniel reached down and picked them up, holding them in his hands as I teared up.

Daniel marched to Caleb's ensuite bathroom and threw them in the toilet flushing it as he watched them disappear.

I started feeling sick and walked out of the bedroom and downstairs to the kitchen.

My hands gripped onto the counter space as I heard footsteps behind me.

Daniels's arms pulled me towards him and he held me into his chest, I started crying.

It wasn't long until the front door opened and all three kids walked in at the same time.

Alex had picked them up from school on his way back home because he wanted to show Daniel something.

Caleb saw me crying and came over to me, hugging me tightly.

"We need to talk to you Caleb, about something very important and heartbreaking." ~Daniel.

Caleb nodded, terror flooding his face as we walked him to the living room and sat him down.

Daniels arms wrapped around my waist as Caleb looked at the two of us.

We started asking him about the journal, and if he was feeling okay, then we told him about the blades.

"Do you hurt yourself?" ~Fallon.

"Yeah, I do. It's better than keeping it a secret, every day I come home after Jackson and Juliet do some stupid shit to me and I hurt myself! I don't belong here, mom! I wanna die, I wanna be with grandma." ~Caleb.

I saw the tears running down his cheeks as I pulled him closer, he curled up in my arms as I played with his hair.

"It's okay kiddo, we're just glad you told us and were honest. We're not mad just a little heartbroken that's all." ~Daniel.

"No, you're mad at me! You have to be mad at me, everyone else is!" ~Caleb.

"Hey no we are not mad at you! We love you, Caleb, we support you through all of your decisions! We didn't care that you dyed your hair blue. That you don't like singing out loud because you don't like your voice. We love you so fucking much Caleb and I can't lose one of the many amazing things that have happened to me! So please don't ever think about trying to hurt or banish your life from existence! We need you here." ~Fallon.

He nodded and curled up even smaller on my lap, Daniel kissed the side of his head as Alex and Charlotte came downstairs.

They sat next to us, Charlotte on Daniel's lap and Alex sat next to me with his head on my shoulder.

"I love you guys." ~Caleb.
