A/N Alan is mollys adoptive 'dad' and Sam is here adoptive 'mom'
____________________

What the fuck are they doing here? "You gave no right to be here." I scold them, they scowl at me and Jaeden.

"Don't you dare speak to us like that, we raised you better." Alan spoke, he doesn't get to be called my dad or caregiver for all he's done to me. Neither of them get that privilege.

"I wouldn't call it 'raising' if I were you. I took care of myself, after every beating, every whip mark, every bruise, cut, and lash you assholes left on me!"

"Dont you dare raise your voice at us, you little slut! If it wasn't for us you'd be on the street again!"

"Oh please, that would be better than this!" I didn't even acknowledge what he called me, I was used to it by now.

"First, don't you dare call her a slut! Second, you all don't have any right to be here, after what all you've done to her. You all need to rot in hell for what you've done!"

"You little-!" Alan started but the door was busted down by, police?

Sam and Alan both looked at the 5 officers, dumbfounded. "Sam Crain and Alan Crain, you are under arrest for abuse, neglect, and attempted murder. You have the right to remain silent. Anything said will be used against you in the court of law." They both stayed silent as the police handcuffed them.

"I'm going for a walk up to the top," I told Jaeden. He nodded and smiled at me. Then got up, hugged me, and kissed my forehead.

"Be careful," he said. I nodded and tried not to cry.

I got to the top and looked around, I went to the edge and stood. I shed a few tears. It would all be better without me. I'm burdening Jaeden, he wants me gone. Its just an act. He doesn't care...

Just as I'm about to jump, I see Jaeden at the door. "Hey I j-. Molly!"

I stumble and fall forward, and for a split second I think. This is it, goodbye cruel world that never loved me. I feel an arm grab my wrist, I look below me and see something you only see in nightmares.

I scream internally and begin to cry, Jaeden pulls me up and we land on the top of the building

I scream internally and begin to cry, Jaeden pulls me up and we land on the top of the building. He hugs me and begins to cry too. "Why? Why would you? You were going to..." he let out a cry in pain, mental pain. I break down at that, I pull away from him and put my head in my hands.                                                        

I pull my hair, "I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry. I just can't do it, it was all becoming too much. I didn't mean to hurt you, I just couldn't do it. "

"I'm glad I came up here, you have no idea how happy I was that I got here. I couldn't have handled another death."

"A- another?" I ask, wiping my tears.

"You remember I told you about how my parents are never home"

"Yes"

"They're never home because, they- they're....dead"

Flashback

"I'm gonna get you!" My mother yelled while chasing me playfully. I squealed when she got me, wrapped me in her arms and kissed my head. "I told you that I would catch you."

"I know, you always do. You're too fast for me." I said quietly

"You'll be much faster and stronger than me one day. I love you, my son. Forever and always, even if I'm not here physically. I will always be with you in spirit."

"I love you too, Mommy"

"What's all this yelling?" My dad said from the doorway.

"We were playing tag. Mommy got me again." I crossed my arms and huffed. My mother and father chuckled, and my father wrapped his arms around my mother and they starting kissing. "Gross!" I yelled out and covered my eyes.

They both laughed once again and we all hugged. We were the 'perfect' family. Well...that was until the next day.

"Where are we going Mommy?" I asked, sitting in the back seat of my mother's car.

"You'll see soon, my son. Be patient."

"I can't be patient. I'm excited!"

"Jaeden, honey, you don' even know where we are going."

"I know but-" I was cut off by my father yelling.

"Mary, look out!!" My father yelled.

All I heard was the screams of my mother and father, the screeching of the car brakes, and a loud crash.

Everything went black

Now we know Jaedens secret. But, what will happen next?

Onto another thing, I'm sorry I haven't updated in over a week. I couldn't think of anything to write. I really am trying to write more often. I will be able to write more since it's a 4 days weekend.

But

I have a very good idea for my next story! I will not to start publishing until I'm done with this story. But, I will start writing and then I'll go back and edit the chapters. I'm not going to give ANY details about the story, so you'll just have to wait and see.

To be continued......
