Some people are born with tragedy in their blood.

Harper.
I couldn't. "I believed that at first,"I said quietly as I looked down. I didn't want to see what he had to say anymore. I was frightened that it would happen again and who knows how far it would go.

Gabriel.
I walked over to the door and slammed it then just stared at it. Maybe I was too harsh? But remember the things she said to you and she's possibly with the people trying to catch you. I groaned quietly and began to get dressed. Too much thinking made my head hurt.

[haileyjordan]

Oliver,
At first? Does she not believe me anymore? I felt a hard lump form in my throat. "Harper..." I trailed off. "Do you not think I'm telling the truth?"

Ali,
I leaned against the wall next to his door, my eyes shut. I screwed up and now I couldn't fix it. I slid down to the floor, running my hand through my hair. He hated me; it made me sick.

[lauren.]

Harper.
I breathed in as I crossed my arms,"I don't know. You violated me Oliver,"I said biting my lip. He looked...so sad. Maybe he was right, telling the truth. But how can I not flinch every time he accidentally brushes against me or pats my shoulder? Something like that. "I don't know what I can believe right now."

Gabriel.
I got dressed and sighed, deciding I would have to go out of my room for food. I ran a hand down my face and stepped out, closing my door behind me. I saw Ali sitting against the wall but I didn't say anything as I headed down the hallway to the stairs.

[haileyjordan]

Oliver,
I sighed and lowered my head. "I understand Harper. You have every right to act this way." I wanted to cry so bad. I turned around, walking away. I was a horrible person. I lost the person I truly cared for.

Ali,
I glanced over at Gabriel and how he ignored me. I didn't know how to make it up. I couldn't. This whole thing was because of him. He caused me to say those things to her.

[lauren.]

Harper.
I opened my mouth to say something but then closed it. What else could I say? He looks so crushed though. I frowned as I leaned against the counter putting my head in my hands.

Gabriel.
I walked downstairs and yawned as I passed Oliver leaving the kitchen looking completely crushed. Dang what happened while I was locked away?

[haileyjordan]

Oliver,
I immediately fell into a state of depression. I understood where she was coming from, but it was wrong to make assumptions when I wasn't even aware I was doing it. I went back up stairs, glancing over at Ali. "No luck?" I asked as she shook her head. "Join the club."

Ali,
I felt bad for Oliver. What I said to Gabriel was intentional. Oliver couldn't stop himself when he was sleeping. I got up off the ground and hugged him. "I'm sorry," I said quietly. We were both depressed. No matter what I tried I knew Gabe would just push me away.

[lauren.]

Harper.
I finished getting my breakfast ready as I saw Gabriel come into the kitchen,"Hello, how are you feeling?"I asked. He didn't look all that great. Gosh we all had problems didn't we?

Gabriel.
I sighed and shrugged,"I feel like shit,"I said then began getting some cereal ready. I did notice that Harper looked somewhat sad but she tried to put on an act. I didn't say anything because I knew girls didn't like it when guys asked that.

[haileyjordan]

Oliver,
I rubbed her back, "I can't help who I am," I said simply. "Thanks though." I let go of her and went into the bathroom to take a quick shower. I needed to clear my mind for a while.

Ali,
I chewed on my lip, sighing. If I was persistent that would make him angrier at me. But what the hell, it couldn't get any worse. I went into my room and changed, then went back downstairs. I smiled softly at Harper before going over to Gabe. "Do I need to get on my hands and knees and beg?" I asked him.

[lauren.]

Harper.
I smiled back at Ali and took my food into the dining room, leaving them to some privacy. I stared out the huge window as I ate my breakfast. I can't live in this house without seeing Oliver....and he said that he didn't even know he did it.

Gabriel.
I sighed and ran a hand through my hair,"Im not sure Ali, but you sure as hell have a lot of making up to do,"I said not looking at her as I took a bite of my cereal.

[haileyjordan]

Oliver,
Once I got out of the shower and changed, I sort of sat in my room for a bit. I had to make it up to Harper. She had to forgive me. But who's to say I wouldn't do it again tonight? The thought made me sick. There was probably a medication that would help me. I needed to be normal; for Harper.

Ali,
"Well then will you listen to me? Will you at least let me explain myself then?" I asked. I felt horrible, of course, and even if I didn't believe it was all my fault (which it wasn't) I had to be the one to fix it. I had to be the bigger person.

[lauren.]

Harper.
I yawned as I finished up. I couldn't go on ignoring Oliver. I like him, a lot. I groaned as I placed my head on the table, not knowing what to do anymore.

Gabriel.
I finished pouring the milk. I leaned against the counter, facing her as I ate,"Fine, explain,"I said with a full mouth.

[haileyjordan]

Oliver,
I headed back downstairs, glancing over at Harper. She seemed upset. It was her fault though. I couldn't do anything else. I ran my hand through my hair, walking past the kitchen.

Ali,
It was hard to take someone who stuffed their mouth seriously. "What I did was wrong. I know it was wrong Gabriel. But you just weren't listening to what I had to say. And when you falsely accused me...well that hurt. I couldn't help but be rude only because I felt crushed myself. I never meant what I said. I wasn't thinking. I really care about you Gabriel. And I don't want this to ruin everything." I said, looking back over at him, chewing on my cheek.

[lauren.]

Harper.
I looked over when I saw a shadow pass through the dining room. My eyes followed him as he walked through and disappeared into the kitchen. I sighed and bit my lip as I stood up to take my things into the kitchen. I went to the sink to wash my dishes.

Gabriel.
I looked to see everyone else come into the kitchen. I chewed my food as I nodded towards the dining room for Ali to follow. I swallowed my food once we reached there,"Well what if you end up saying more hurtful words or end up beating the crap out of me. Did you see Oliver's shiner?"I asked shaking my head.

[haileyjordan]

Oliver,
I glanced over at Harper until I saw her look at me. I mouthed the words 'I'm sorry'. She needed to understand how sorry I was. It was killing me, not being around her.

Ali,
I sighed, "That's the problem. I can't predict that. But I can work on it. And I will because I know the damage I can do. I never meant to hurt him, and he forgave me. He knows that I have a problem and even though I didn't believe it before, I know now that I need help." I glanced up at him through my eyelashes, feeling very nervous. Would he accept that?

[lauren.]

Harper.
I bit my lip as I saw what Oliver had said. I finished washing my dishes and turned around, leaning against the counter. "Okay, you swear you have no recollection of what happened last night?"I asked softly as I looked at Oliver.

Gabriel.
"You called me psychotic,"I mumbled as I looked down at my cereal taking another bite. That's what hurt more. I'm not psychotic and someone I care for calling me that? It hurts.
