Oliver, Oh my god. I didn't. "I am so sorry Harper," I whispered before respecting her wish by leaving. I wanted to punch myself. I couldn't believe I would hurt her like that, right when I started to gain her trust. I slowly walked into my room, sitting on the chair in the corner. I put my head in my hands and stayed quiet.
Ali, I walked over to Harper, "What did he do Ali?" I asked, putting my hand on her shoulder. Why was everything going wrong? Oh that's right, we are all lunatics.

Harper. I shook my head,"We all just need to go to bed,"I said quietly as I crossed my arms. Would he ever do that when he's awake? I closed my eyes tight then opened them to look at Ali,"Goodnight Ali,"I said nodding my head slightly to the door.

Ali, I sighed, "Goodnight Harper," I said before exiting her room. I glanced over at Gabriel's door, then swallowed. We were all a mess. Tomorrow was going to be interesting.

Harper. I walked to my door making sure it was locked and turned the lights off. I climbed back in bed, tucking myself deep down in my covers crying myself to sleep. Trust is given and it's easily broken.

(Skipping) Oliver, I woke up around ten the next morning. I sat up in bed, groaning. I had a major headache. I looked up, then over at my door. I didn't want to ever get up. I hurt Harper and I didn't want to see her like that. I slowly got out of bed, heading into the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror at the beautiful black eye I had. You never know what each day holds.
Ali, I was sitting on the couch with a cup of coffee in my hands. I had the television on low, though I wasn't really watching it. I was still having a battle with myself on whether I should apologize to Gabriel or not. I had a hard time saying sorry.

Harper. I was already up and ready for the day though I didn't really want to be. I didn't want to see Oliver... Though yesterday I did. He probably didn't realize what he did last night but it still happened. I walked downstairs and went into the kitchen to make some toast.
Gabriel. I was still in bed. My headache was now just a throbbing pain in my temples but I still didn't sleep well. I figured if I stayed in bed no one would be able to catch me and I wouldn't have to see Ali. So that was my plan today: my bed and darkness.

Ali, I looked over at Harper, then back at the television. Today was going to be...well, weird. I saw Oliver come down the stairs and look over at Ali. I frowned as I saw the sadness on his face. He walked over and sat down next to me. "What did I do last night Ali?" he asked me. I sighed, "I don't know, Harper wouldn't tell me, but it was bad Oliver."
Oliver, I stared at the floor. "I know she hates me now, and I don't even know why. I can't talk to her either," I told her. "You and me both." she replied. I smirked slightly, "We screwed up." "That's what life's about though, screwing up. Some of us just do it more often." she answered, "sorry about your eye." I chuckled, "That's the least of my concerns right now."

Harper. I yawned and rubbed my eye as I waited for my toast to be ready. I stared out the window and pursed my lips. I didn't know what today would become and I knew I wasn't going to enjoy it.
Gabriel. I yawned and closed my eyes rubbing my temples. Maybe a shower would be better and hopefully take my pain away. I got out of bed and turned my shower on, waiting for it to heat up.

Oliver, "Well, good luck Ali," I said, putting my hand on my knee before I got up. "You too," she replied. I headed into the kitchen, feeling very nervous. I walked over to Harper, "Can we talk?" I asked her.
Ali, I looked over at him, chewing on my lip. He had the guts to talk to Harper, so I could talk to Gabriel. I set my coffee down on the side table, getting up. I ran my hand through my hair as I walked up the stairs. I heard the shower running; great, more time for me to panic.

Harper. I stared at him. I didn't know if I wanted to talk. I swallowed and took a slight step away from him,"Sure,"I said quietly. I really didn't want to look at him but I had no other choice. My heart was pounding hard.
Gabriel. I took my time but finished eventually. I got out wrapping a towel around myself. I stepped into my dark room, my head easing easily from the lights being on in the bathroom. I turned a small light on and began to rummage through my things to find something to wear.

Oliver, I sighed and ran my hand through my hair. "Whatever I did last night," I signed, "I never meant it. I sleepwalk a lot and do things I would never do. I'm sorry I hurt you, and I am having a hard time accepting that I did. I care about you too much to see you like this." I wanted her to believe me. She had too.
Ali, I saw him going into his room and I swallowed, taking a deep breath. "Gabe, I need to talk to you," I said quietly as I stood in his doorway. Seeing him without a shirt on wasn't helping me think straight though.

Harper. I looked down at the ground. "I want to forgive you but I can't,"I said looking at him again. I took a deep breathe,"You told me you loved me, three times and then you kissed me trying to push me to the bed. I'm was so confused, hell, I still am. And then you touched my sides under my shirt Oliver,"I said my eyes glassy with tears. "Now how the hell am I supposed to forgive you for that?"
Gabriel. I closed my eyes and breathed deeply,"I don't want to talk to you. I still have a headache,"I muttered as I grabbed some boxers and a white tshirt. I needed to change an I wanted to be alone.

Oliver, I froze at what she told me. I put my hand over my mouth. What the hell. Oliver, what the hell did you do. "Oh my god Harper. I am so sorry. I don't want you to forgive me, I don't deserve it. Whether I was asleep or not, it was unacceptable." I wanted to cry, but I was stronger than that.
Ali, "Please Gabe," I said, almost begging. "Are you just going to avoid me from now on?" He couldn't; I would feel terrible and empty.

Harper. I stared at him somewhat..shocked? "You don't remember any of that?"I asked slowly. I remember seeing his eyes glazed over thinking he was sleepwalking but what if it was also alcohol?
Gabriel. "I don't know. You seem to think I'm psychotic so maybe I should be by myself,"I said bitterly as I looked at her. "I need to change,"I said crossing my arms

Oliver, I shook my head, "I sleepwalk all the time...and I never remember it. But I've never done something that bad before. I don't know what's wrong with me." I sighed and looked up at the ceiling, then back at her. "Harper I would never do something to hurt you or make you cry intentionally."
Ali, I sighed, "I'm trying to be civil with you Gabe, but if you don't want to hear it then I'll respect that. I'm sorry. I'm just a bitch who can't control her anger." I walked out of his doorway and into my bedroom. I tried, right? But it wasn't good enough for me.
