Harmony sat on the bleachers during lunch time. She was sketching something from a distance. Just then Nathan walked up.

"Hey Harmony" he said as he sat down beside her

"Hey, Nate" she said with a smile

"What are you sketching?"

"That tree over there. And the kids underneath it playing" Nathan looked over

"Wow, you're amazing" he said

"You want to see other stuff?" she asked

"Sure" and he took the book from her and flipped through. He came across one of a girl looking out of the window and it was all dark outside. Then the next picture was of a dead bundle of flowers. "um…"

"I sort of went through a dark faze" she said and she looked down

"I can see that"

"It's just, I love Mac and Dean, but sometimes they joke and they think it's funny but it really hurts me. I know they don't mean to upset me. But there are six of us living in the house and Rebecca and I are the only girls. Sometimes I feel alone" Nathan put his arm around her

"I'm always here you know, if you need anyone to talk to. Even Peyton will listen, I know you two are really close. But seriously if you need a shoulder to cry on or lean on or a hand to hold, I'm open" just then Harmony leaned in and kissed him and he kissed back.


"Hey, what's up with Peyton?" Tunny asked Will

"I don't know" said Will

"Regan tells me she's sometimes sitting in the bathroom and she's really upset"

"I've noticed a change, but I don't know what triggered it" said Will "How do you do it Tun? You have the perfect apple pie family"

Tunny laughed "That's a new one. I wouldn't say we were apple pie"

"Seriously, you guys are like from the fifty's or something" said Will

"I guess we do alright. I only have one kid, you others have a bunch"

"Hey Johnny's got extra people living with him" said Will

"That is true. I know it wasn't any of my business I just wanted to make sure my Goddaughter was okay"

"Well thank you for caring" said Will


"Can I walk you home?" asked Nathan "I know we always walk home together anyway what I meant was…can I hold your hand and walk home"

"I don't know? Can you do two things at once" Harmony said and stuck out her tongue

"May I hold your hand this afternoon?"

"Yes you may" she said and kissed him one last time


"Hey Mac, can you tell the others I'm going to go home later" said Peyton

"Are you okay?" he asked

"Yeah, I just have to ask a teacher some questions and there's no point and making you guys wait"

"Alright"


Everyone met outside to go home at the end of the day and everyone walked home.

"Am I seeing this correctly? Are you two holding hands?" asked Regan

"Yes we are" said Harmony

"Wow, nice one" said Mac

"This is exciting" said Dean

"I think so" said Nathan


Peyton stayed back and went into the bathroom. She looked down at her arm. It was white and smooth. She couldn't take it though, the feeling of being invisible, hiding things she wished she could tell but didn't know how. Next thing she knew that blade went across her skin. Peyton winced a bit and then wiped of the blade and walked home. On her walk she met up with Jimmy


"Hey, don't you go home with the others?" Jimmy asked

"What? Oh, Hi Uncle Jimmy, yeah I do but I stayed behind" she said

"Well, how are you kido?"

"I'm…doing alright"

"Okay" Jimmy said, but he saw it in her eyes she was lying.

"How are you?" she asked

"Good, tired"

"Yeah, living in a house with five other people must be hard" Jimmy nodded and smiled at Peyton she smiled back. It was nice to talk to him, she liked him. She loved Johnny and Tunny, but she felt like he knew her better. They reached her house

"Here you go" he said

"Thank you" Jimmy gave her a big hug and she went inside


"So what happened at school today?" asked Johnny

"Harmony has a boyfriend" blurted out Mac

"Oh my gosh that's wonderful" said Rebecca "this calls for some cookies"

"Who are you dating?" asked Jimmy

"Nathan Esper" said Harmony

"Oh, he's a nice kid" said Jimmy "I approve"

"Good, I was really worried you wouldn't" said Harmony

"But if he messes with you…"warned Jimmy

"Then we are all going to gang up and beat the shit out of him" said Johnny and the two men high fived

"Wow, please tell me you two did not just do that?" asked Dean

"Oh, you boys were so cool until you did that" said Rebecca

aww Peyton review please and tell what you think should happen
