My eyes flutter open and I look at the clock and see it is 6:30 and I am really hungry so I quietly walk down the stairs so I don't attract any attention to myself. I am able to successfully get to the kitchen without being spotted and I grab a bag of chips and a lunchable and sneek back to my room and lock the door again. I sit on my bed and eat the food and then I turn on my T.V. and start watching a recording of scorpion.

*********

1 hour later

Right as I finish scorpion I here my brother Jacob yell...

"Emma Renee Taylor get your ass down here!"

It took him long enough.

"Coming!" I yell back.

I run down the stares and notice that everyone is in the living room. I stop right before the entrence.

"Ya?" I ask smiling sweetly.

"Come sit down." Alex says.

I go sit down in the chair and Jacob starts speeking.

"Is it true you disrespected one of your brothers today?" he asks.

"Yes I did but I was Angry and he got in my way." I say with attitude.

"You better watch your attitude with me young lady you are already in enough trouble and I don't think you want anymore." he suggests very calmly but I know his anger is starting to rise.

"Whatever." I say. "Can we just finish up here I need to get to bed."

"What did you say to Lucas?" he asks.

"I asked why he cared." I mumble.

"What was that Emma?"

"I asked him why he cared." I say clearly this time.

"Why would you ask that? Emma you know we all care about you." he says.

"Because I was angry you already Know this, because these man servants here tell you everything."

"What did you just call us?" Noah asks.

"Oh I'm sorry I didn't think I stuttered I called you man servants." I say getting tired of this conversation.

"Emma Renee Taylor you better quit your attitude." Ethan says.

"I don't care what you say you are not my dad none of you are!" I yell.

" I am your legal guardian therefore I can tell you what to do so quit all of this disrespect right this instant." Jacob says raising his tone.

" UUUGGGHHH I hate all of you!" I yell and turn and run up to my room slamming my door.

*Trigger Warning. If you don't want to read this part then don't.*

I run to my bathroom and get in the drawer closer to my room and reach under my bras pulling out the razor I do the thing that I have done for years and take all of my anger out on myself. I am in the middle of it when I hear someone walk into my room.

"Hey Emma, um Ethan-" Alex starts  and I quickly hide my razor.

I look up and see Alex staring at me in pure horror and I am sure my face resembled his look.

"Crap, Alex please don't tell anyone please I will do anything just don't tell anyone." i quickly ramble

"What the hell, Emma? Why do you, what the hell?"

I looked down and asked again quietly, "please don't tell them. I will do anything."

"Oh trust me I'm not going to say a single word." He replies.
