I tried but nothing worked I couldn't go back to sleep I was just thinking of everything that could have happened. I finally decided to get up. I take a shower and get dressed. I look in the mirror and there's a big bruise on my cheek and there's finger marks all over my arms. If my brother finds out he will never let me out again. He will never let me do anything, he will send me home. I cover up the marks on my arms. Then I do my face, I do all of my face with makeup. I wanted it to not look like it was on one spot. I finish and look at myself. I wear makeup a few times but I don't wear foundation. There's a knock on the door.

"Guess who." My brother says. I quickly put on my hoodie and open the door.

"Oh it's you, I was hoping for the president." I say. It's a joke we do.

"Witch one?"

"The dead one."

"Come on let's go have breakfast."

"Ok." I'm trying to act as normal as possible but it's hard. I keep away from him a little bit. We go into the lobby where there's food set out. "Where are the others?" I ask as I grab a plate and start getting food.

"They will be down in a minute there finishing their hair." He laughs. We finish getting our food. We sit down and start eating. Someone hugs me from behind I jump.

"Hey babe." The person says. Oh, it's Zach. "You ok?" He lets go and moves to the side and looks at me.

"Ya im good. Why?" I say back.

"You jumped." Daniel says sitting down at the table with a plate of food.

"It's early in the morning and you scared me, that's all." I say defending myself. I start eating again but still looking at them.

"Did something happen?" Jonah asks, sitting down with his plate.

"Yes clearly I got abducted by aliens and that's why." I sarcastically tell them.

"Really?" Corbys asks sitting down.

"No, sorry Corbs."

"Dang it."

"There's a waffle machine!" Zach quietly yells amazed. "How does it work?"

"I'll help you babe." I got up and walk over to him. I start making the waffle he watches amazed. "And this is why you should stay in school."

"They don't teach you this in school." Zach says.

"Homec."

"Wow your right." He's standing to the side of me, he puts his head on my shoulder. I immediately stiffen. Oh no there going to notice. I take a deep breath. It's ok I can get through this i'm going to be ok. I open my eyes and take out the waffle.

"There you go." I hand it to him and walk back to the table. My drink is empty. hotels have such tinie juice cups. I grab it and go fill it up again.

"Why are you wearing makeup?" Jack asks standing on the side of the machine.

"I wanted to look good. being on TV is a big deal for some of us." I say walking away. "Things like this don't happen for me every day."

We finish eating and pack up.
