It was about 10am and Lucas had came down to drop a present off from him Robbie and Ken since it was half term Ken's family had gone away for the weekend. So Lucas nocked on the door and dale answered he let him in and Lucas went up to graces room to find her in her bed with Henry Darren and Sam with her watching his favourite film which was also hers Harry Potter she signed Hi to him he just stood there smiling at her then Sam said come on Lucas lad you'll fit on the bed as well grace stood up and moved from being next to Sam and Darren she pushed Henry over so she could sit in between Henry and Lucas she just looked at him and smiled then Sam paused the movie
Sam- right I think it's time to open your presents

Grace opened the card and and then walked over to her bin and put it in the bin

Grace shuck her head she knew if he said anything libby and Victoria Tyler's bird would come for her at school and hit her
Lucas then spoke
Lucas- happy birthday grace
He gave her a card and she opened it and her mouth dropped open
Lucas- you did say to Ken you would give him a tour so me and Robbie thought we would come to
Grace smiled and threw herself into a hug with Lucas a long one with tears in her eyes
Sam- and here's the best news dads said yous can stay with him and I'm going to come up and spend the week with yous
Grace - thank yous I would be lost without you lot
All her brothers sat there in shock realising she had just spoke to them grace then stood up realising it wasn't her birthday without Tyler
Grace- I've just got to go and have a word with Tyler
Sam- I'll come with you
Grace- no it just needs to be me
she walked out and grabbed the card from her bin then barged into Tyler's room as he was snogging Victoria
Grace -hey we're watching Harry Potter like we always do on my birthday was wondering if you wanted to come since it's always been our thing
Tyler- I'm busy and I wouldn't want to waste my time with you lot especially you the freak and that rubbish film
Grace- I guessed that by what you wrote in my card this year thanks bro
Tyler- your welcome freak
Victoria- aren't you that girl who run aways
Grace - ye and I have a name Victoria it's grace
Victoria- no it's not these all said your name was freak
Tyler- that's cause her name is freak babe
Grace - it's not these just chose to call me it and Victoria do me a favour next time you see Tyler tell him his sister and brothers miss him
Tyler- oh fuck off you bitch
With that grace walked out the door leaving the card in his room she went back and sat on the bed in between Henry and Lucas
Sam - are you ok
Grace - Tyler's one of them now and I couldn't be happier for him put the movie back on ( with tears in her eyes wanting to burst out)
Sam -I'll talk to him grace
Grace just held Lucas hand squeezing it to stop herself from crying they all watched the whole Harry Potter movies and then it was Monday tomorrow so they would be in school Sam was worried as grace hadn't ate all weekend but he kept quiet, Lucas went home and it was now Monday morning and they had just got to school grace hadn't slept at all she was to worried about school and she had been throwing up vile as well like many other nights but she told none  she went to maths and then her and Ken came out of maths laughing but that quickly faded when they saw Ryan libby Tyler and Victoria
Libby- EXCUSE ME FREAK I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU THINK YOU ARE
Victoria - she's a freak is what she is
Ken - come on grace she's not worth it
Then Lucas and Robbie came over while they walked away then the voices started again when they got to the top of the stairs at this point everyone was looking at them the stairs were in an open area grace felt faint but she still stood tall then she heard
Victoria-know I understand why they call you runaway you freak
Tyler-I'm ashamed to say your my sister
Grace -I don't know who you are but your definitely not my brother He wouldn't of said that to me
Tyler-people grow up freak
Grace-I know you should try it
Ryan - how dare you say that to him you freak your so ridiculous you just run away from everything your ridiculous no wonder you have no friends who would want to be friends with you
Tyler just stood there smirking holding Victoria's waist
Grace - I get it I'm not perfect great I have an anxiety disorder so I run away some times but at least I don't bully my own family now everyone was looking at them and teachers started coming towards them so libby came over and slapped grace on the face and so did Victoria
Tyler-she needed that might nock some common sense into her
Grace - yeno what Tyler you've been such a dick head since we moved if someone did that to me in our old school you would of flipped but clearly you've changed
Tyler - I don't know why you think your so special cause your not your a freak with a stupid disorder there's nothing even wrong with you it's all in your head you idiot you honestly are not even my sister anymore and just a big fat bitch who's a freak with a stupid made up disorder just cause she can't talk to people or she gets scared when they say something nasty to her or bully her
Grace - you know what I went through in our old school you know they called me them names pointed out all my flaws you know they put me in the bin and you know they use to bully me and hit me and you were sat next me when I got diagnosed
Tyler- and I don't blame them for doing it you deserved it
All off a sudden grace felt dizzy she was stood right at the top of the stairs all the teachers were running over next minute her legs gave in and all she heard was Lucas and even. Tyler I think shout grace but she blacked out before she could hear them grace was unconscious and she went down the stairs backwards causing her to bruise her arms and legs and cuts all over her face Lucas came running down and so did Henry and Darren they had only just managed to get over through the crowd Henry - what have you done to her your supposed to be her brother Tyler
Darren- she's just fainted and fell down the fucking stairs and your still being a cunt to her
Henry- who even are you anymore you use to be so overprotective of her
Tyler- but I
Darren- shut it and now you won't even say a sentence to her without being a cunt
Henry- do us a favour and grow up
Darren- and stay away from me Henry sam Joel and especially grace
Henry- just fuck off
Darren- now you don't deserve to call us your family especially grace
libby Victoria and Ryan stood there laughing and Tyler had tears coming out of his face he finally realised what he had become and he regretted everything he had done and he had just lost his favourite sibling but more importantly his best friend
Ryan Victoria libby all went to walk off
Ryan - come on bro
Tyler- no that's my sister down there
Libby- you disowned her a minute ago you heard what she said to you
Tyler- only cause I was horrible to her
Victoria- come on babe
Tyler - it's over yous are all just spoilt brat who bully people and you made me turn against my family
Tyler ran off to see his sister
Lucas- what are you doing here
Tyler- is is she ok
Henry- what do you think she's just fell down the the stairs and is unconscious and you've been a cunt to her when she needed you  she's stopped talking to us because of you
Robbie - you was the one who made her feel like shit her own brother and best mate
Darren-libby Ryan and Victoria didn't bother her it was you who made her feel the worst
Ken - she use to tell you everything and then you became one of them
Tyler- I know I have been but
Darren- but what she needed you and you Weren't there she hasn't spoke to any of us in months so do us a favour and leave her and us alone like you said your not her brother
Lucas- honestly she never use to shut up about you when I first met her
Robbie- but now when ever we mention you she looks upset and destroyed
Ken- you knew what was wrong with her and you just made everything harder for her
Tyler- im sorry I know I've been a cunt
Henry- well if you was really sorry you would leave her alone and all of us so go now
Next minute the teacher came over with an ambulance person who had a stretcher they quickly lifted her on it and then Henry and Darren went with them out of the school to the ambulance and to the hospital they rang Sam on the way and he turned his car round from going to uni and went to meet them at the hospital. They got to the hospital lucky dale worked there and he made sure she got the right treatment quickly and Henry and Darren told dale what happened and all you could see was disappointment in his eyes he looked furious he spoke I'm so so sorry I didn't know Ryan was like that he'll be dealt with later but I'm more shocked about Tyler I thought him and grace was close Henry answered they use to be but then we moved and Tyler started being a cunt to her and that's why she stopped talking to us again Darren spoke Tyler was in the room when she got diagnosed he always let her sit with him and his mates at lunch they were best friends and when he started to act like that it just had an affect on her dale said I'm so so sorry I'm going to see if I can get any answers on why she fainted and your mum wants yous to come home for a bit and rest she can't get out of work but Sam's going to come and sit with grace so please go home order some food she could be here for a while and I'll keep yous updated and I'll tell you when she wakes up
Henry spoke ok but we're coming back tomorrow if she's not home the boys then said good bye and went home
They continued to run test on grace Sam got there about 1 hour after Henry and Darren he had to go and find dale when he came in so he could find grace as it was a big hospital she was in London's children hospital Sam eventually found dale he eventually did and he waited as dale was on the phone but he looked stressed he signalled for Sam to come in and so he did
Sam- can I go see her
Dale - yes but she they put her to sleep as they thought she has had to have a camera in her stomach and she hasn't woke up so they think she might be in a coma and well when she does wake up she won't  home be coming home right away
Sam- why has she had a camera in her stomach and is she ok how long will she be in a coma and I need a word with Tyler cause he needs to sort his attitude out
Dale- I'm going to have a word with the boys but I spoke to your mum and she said Tyler hasn't came home and Ryan hasn't seen him since the incident
Sam - so he shouldn't go home he should feel ashamed for what he's done to her she could be in a coma
Dale - do you have any clue where he could be ?
Sam- the basketball court I'll get Henry and Darren to get Lucas to check he will deal with Ryan cause they would just kill him
Sam got his phone out and texted them and they said ok and asked Lucas and Lucas said yes anything as long as they let him know how grace is
Dale started to talk again
Dale- Sam before you see her you should know that they discovered why she passed out
Sam - why was it because she was overwhelmed?
Dale - some of it was but see grace has been diagnosed with an eating disorder called anorexia and they think her mental health has took a big hit with everything that been happening causing her to stop talking and they want her to stay in for the hospital so they can monitor her eating as they camera showed there was no food in her immune system and she is ridiculously underweight and she's going to be on a drip for a while but they need to run more test and look into what the camera saw in her stomach
Sam- she's anorexic I knew there something wrong with her eating and I didn't say anything I'm so stupid
Dale - it's not your fault it's mine I didn't notice and I should of but would you be able to stay the night with her just cause we don't want her to be alone on her first night she's going to move in to the teen day ward and she decorate the room how she likes and she will attend the hospital school
Sam- Yes of course I don't want her to be alone can I go and see her now
Dale -I'll take you to the room she'll be in there just moving her but dam she doesn't look like her usual self so if you need a breather take it and she still not awake
Sam- please just take me to her
