Justin's pov

"Alex why can't you be more like your brother" I over-heard my mom lecturing Alex.

What'd she do now?

"You know sometimes I just dont know what to do with you!"Mom said.

"Mom.. I am not and never will be like Justin. I'm my own person."Alex said. Her voice sounded angry and sad.

"Yeah, A person who didn't come home last night"

"I...I...I" Alex Hesitated trying to figure out what to say.

"I what?"Mom almost screamed out.

Alex stayed silent.

"Yeah, Thats what I thought, Go to your room untill me and your dad figure out a punishment."Mom said angrily.

Alex pushed past me sobbing.

What? She never cries when mom yells at her.

"Mom..." I said.

"Yeah?" She said trying not to bring her anger out on me.

"What happened?" I asked wanting more information.

"Alex didn't come home til' 11 this morning."Mom said sitting on the couch.

"Oh." I said.

As I was walking to my room I heard crying fro. alex's room.

I knocked on the door.

"What?"Alex choked out. Trying to cover up thatshe had been crying.

"Are you okay?" I asked. can't believe i was asking this.

She opened the door.

"Yeah.. I'm fine. " Her face said otherwise.

"Then why are you crying?" I asked.

"I just stubbed my toe...ow" She lied.

"Oh..Okay..You can always talk to me. I am still your brother."I reassured.

"I know..and thanks." She said.

"Justin,Dinner" Max said outside my door.

"Okay." I said grtting up and goung downstairs.

"Where's Alex?" I asked as I sat down.

"She was doing something." Max said eating a peice of bread.

Alex came down and sat without saying a word.

We ate in silence.

"May I be excused?"Alex almost whispered.

"Yes"My mom said.

After she left me and my mom looked at each other worried.

"There is something wrong..She was crying earlier" I said.

"Yes..I'm really worried." Mom said.

-midnight-

"Justin..Justin!" I heard someone whisperring from my door.

"Alex?" I asked.

She nodded and walked over and sat next to me.

"Can you drive me to the hospital?"

WHAT?

"What do you mean take you to the hospital?"I demanded.

"Just do it!"She said Throwing shoes at me.

"Okay"

-At the hospital-

"Okay, . take care of yourself"The doctor said as Alex walked out of the room.

"Whats wrong?" I asked the doctor.

"Two broken ribs, and severe bruising on wrists and back." He said while Alex was talking to a nurse at the desk.

"Do you have any idea how?" I asked.

He shook his head.

I nodded and walked over to Alex who was waiting for me.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Nothing I can't handle..." She said walking to the car.

Alex's POV

I wish Justin and everyone would stop worrying.

Josh and me just got into a little fight, he said he didn't mean to hurt me. I believe him.

I haven't told anyone about Josh, cause they would make me break up with him. He cares about me. I don't want to break up with him. It's not like he hurts me on purpose. It's a accident, he has anger management he's working it out.

"Justin?" I asked breaking the silence on the way home.

"Yeah?" He asked looking at the road.

"Don't tell mom or dad..." I said having a hard time breathing cause of my ribs.

"Why shouldn't I?" He asked.

"Just don't I'm begging you." I said about to cry.

"Fine, but tell me. What happened?" He asked.

Oh God. I need to figure out a lie.

"I fell down the stairs at my friends house.. and I was knocked out. That's why I didn't get home till this morning.." I lied. Well It's not exactly a lie. Just I was pushed down the stairs I didn't fall, It's not like its the first time Josh had hurt me, but this was the first time he hurt me this badly.

"Why didn't you tell us that, Instead of hiding it?" He asked. I could tell he was torn between thinking i was lying and believing me.

"I don't know." I said.

"Why don't you just tell mom and dad.. They are worried." Justin asked.

"I can't. They won't believe me.." I said. SHOOT! That might have given something away.

"And why wouldn't they believe the truth?" darn.

"I don't know. Just drive." I said wanting to end this conversation.
