Alyssa's pov:

The more yelling I could hear coming from inside the house, the more I knew we needed to get in there.

"Let's go check the Windows" I quickly said to Olivia

"Ok, you take the right side I'll go left" she said running down the steps of the house.

I was trying to push open a window when Olivia yelled "ALYSSA, THIS ONE IS OPEN"

I quickly ran over to where she was and gave her a boost to let her in. She was barely able to pull me through, but we made it after falling on the floor.

I knew we were in the basement because Ethan and I used to watch movies down here when we were together...

I remember that one time when he...

"Cmon" Olivia said breaking me out of my train of thoughts.

We both darted to the stairs that was in the corner of the room tripping over our own feet trying to get there as fast as we could.

As we were going up, the yelling became easier and easier to hear.

Please be ok.....

We pushed open the door from the basement revealing Max and Ethan standing on opposite sides of the room... They both went silent at the sight of us standing there.

They were both beat up pretty badly.

Olivia ran over to Max wiping his bloody nose with her shirt.

"Oh my gosh Max. Are you ok?" she said a tear falling down her cheek as she rubbed his beat up face.

"I'm fine" he said wrapping his arms around her protectively.

What the heck....wait, are they like-
no.... Not the time Alyssa......

I looked over at Ethan who was already staring at me with pain in his eyes.

I have to help him...

I looked at Olivia and motioned my head towards Ethan and she nodded.

"Come on let's go get you cleaned up" I said not looking at him but heading into the bathroom.

I pulled out the first aid kit that was under their sink and washed my hands as he sat on the edge of the bathtub not saying anything.

I took out a gauze and began to dab around the cuts on his face.

I could see his eyes dart around my face taking in my features.

I pretended not to notice and continued what I was doing.

When I got to his eye, I heard him wince in pain.

"Sorry" I said standing up and putting the supplies back into the kit.

"You're going to make a great nurse some day" he said looking at me.

I've always wanted to be a nurse, ever since I was a kid.

I wanted to help people when they were hurting and make them feel better.

I used to talk to Ethan about that all the time...

"Thank you" I said blankly and walked out to go check on Max and Olivia.

I just wasn't in the mood to talk to him..
It hurts to be around him,
he broke my trust and my heart.
He broke me.

They were in the kitchen and Max was sitting on the counter while Olivia dabbed the dried blood on his face.

The way he looked at her... How had I never noticed this before?

"Hey Max" I said walking over to him.

"Hey" he said sighing while giving me a hug.

I decided not to mention anything regarding the fight seeing as Ethan was just down the hall.

Olivia gave me a "oh boy" look and I quickly returned it.

What were we going to do now?
