*Alexa's POV*

I watched the sun rise as birds flew around. My tired eyes were red from all the crying I had done.

It was ten in the morning and I hadn't had any sleep for the first time in my life.

My eyes slowly closed, blackness taking over.

"It's all your fault!" Mum shouted at me as tears spilled out of her eyes,"He blames me when you weren't confident enough to dance! You embarrassed us, your grandfather, grandmother, and mainly me! How can you not dance in front of your family when a little child can?"

I jerked awake. My head was throbbing, I felt my face with fresh tears and the Hoodie that I was wearing was still wet. The clock showed that just a few minutes had passed since I had managed to fallen asleep.

I moved to my bed from the window sill as it was more comfortable to sleep in.

"Lexi, get up!" I was being shaken by someone.

"Yeah, I thought you were and early bird!" A second voice pointed out.

"It's literally ten fifteen, get upppppppp!"

I tried to open my eyes, but I couldn't, it was like I was in a dream, but I was sure that it was reality.

I was pushed off my bed and I landed on hard ground. Everything hurt but I couldn't move to sooth the pain, what was happening to me? There were sighs of frustration.

"Don't say we didn't warn you."

I was being picked up and I jumped up and down at each step the person who was carrying me took. I longed to wake up, but it was like my mind didn't want to listen to me.

A sudden gust of wind hit my face which told me that we were outside. I panicked, my heart started beating at a faster pace.

My body flew up in the air and came it contact with icy cold liquid. My eyes flung open, everything was blurry. I couldn't breath, but I made no effort to get to the surface.

I just stared around as I slowly ran out of breath. I just wanted to stay there. I was on my last breath as I watched a figure dive into the water and pull me out.

"For fuck's sake Alexa, what did you think you were doing!"

I flinched as there was a sharp ringing ear, my eyes were blurry as clouds moved by and we soon were under a roof.

"Alexa? What happened to her!" There was a concerned voice.

An unclear face came into veiw. "Go call Elonzo."

Footsteps were to be heard before a sharp silence. "What's happening?" A cold voice asked, I almost jumped as I felt ice go through me.

"She wouldn't wake up, so Ryder and I decided to throw her in the swimming pool, obviously expecting her to swim up, but she stayed there! It was as if she wanted to drown -- and now look, she's crying."

There was a gentle touch on my cheek before the scary voice rung through my ears,"Will, her temperature is low, her face is cold. Take her to her room, do something --anything-- to make her right. Then call me."

"Oh Bambina what's gotten into you? You were just fine yesterday," Will whispered to me as he tucked me in.

I finally managed to get the control over my mind. I looked up to him, letting my tears flow. What if I had actually drowned? I would have lost such a wonderful family.

"Don't cry, it's alright, you're okay," Will soothed as he wiped my tears away.

I sniffed and snuggled into him, I didn't need the blankets for warmth because I had him.

We stayed in silence as Will rubbed my back. I wondered what he was thinking of me.

He finally, gently pulled me away and forced me to look in his eyes.

"I'll go cook some warm tomato soup for you. You stay here and rest, don't stand up at all. If you need anything, just call us from your phone," He instructed.

"Okay," Was all I could reply with.

Will stood up, taking out his phone, and after one glance at me, he left.

I looked around, not having anything to do, then harshly fell back on my pillow and hugged it.

The gun was to be felt, making me mentally groan and remove my hands from my pillow. It reminded me that I had find only two pieces and the month was about to end.

I didn't know how much more evidence I needed, but for one thing I knew, the puzzle wasn't complete.

I unwrapped the bedsheets around me and walked to my closet, in there I had hidden all my evidence I had gotten, even including the description paper of each brother.

"Alexa!"

I literally jumped out of my skin and hit the ceiling.

"I told you to not get out of bed! What were you doing?" Will asked.

With a small sigh of relief that I hadn't been got, I found the courage to reply,"T-This hoodie was sticky so I thought it would be better if I changed..."

Will narrowed his eyes before nodding,"Would like some help?"

I quickly shook my head,"I'm good thanks." I went in and quickly slipped on the first shirt I could find, forgetting the piece of paper as I was too scared.

Will smiled once I had gone back under the covers.

I was once again in my room. All alone.

Then it struck me. How did Will know that I was out of bed?

I looked around, at each corner of the room. Then I spotted it. Just at the top was a small camera.

I widened my eyes and looked away in shock.

All the things I had done in here-

That sounded wrong. Wattpad has ruined me for life.

The door of my room swung open, revealing Blake who was on his phone.

"Elonzo wants to see you."
