A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in forever. I've just been really busy with school and crap because next week is finals. So yeah that's pretty much it! I think you all know why it's rated this.

Natalie was home alone, and that's how she liked it. She could practice without anyone annoying her (mostly Gabe), and she could study without anyone bugging her. She was almost done with one problem when the rest of her family came in shouting.
I wonder what happened this time. She thought as she made her way downstairs. "What's going on?" She asked.
"Your mother had another episode." Her dad said.
"What was it about this time? You didn't know where Gabe was?" She said sarcastically. Ever since he had that scare when he was a baby, their mom was always more protective of him.
"No she got angry at one of the workers there, and basically trashed some of the store." Her dad sighed.
"Ugh why does she keep on doing this?" She screamed.
"Natalie shut up. Why can't you be more understanding like your brother?" He said while Natalie glared at Gabe.
"I'll just be going then. It's not like you'll notice or anything." She said while walking up to the bathroom.
She was sick of everything. So she opened the medicine cabinet, and got out two different pill bottles. "Adderall, and Xanax. What the hell?" She said as she swallowed three pills from each bottle. She realized it was a little much when she fell on the bathroom floor.
Since their dad was to wrapped up with their mom, Gabe was the only one who heard a small crash. He went upstairs and knocked on the door. "Nat are you okay in there?" He asked and got no answer. "Nat." He said while opening the door only to find her lying unconscious on the floor with two pill bottles in each hand. "Oh my god." He whispered while he ran to get his dad. "Dad you need to get up here now!" He yelled.
"Why what's going on?" He asked.
"It's Natalie. She passed out in the bathroom."
"Ok I'm coming." He said while running upstairs. "Nat." He said while he bent down to check a pulse. He found a weak one, and told Gabe to call 911.
When they arrived at the hospital Gabe called Henry to tell him to come. "Why would she do this?" He asked Gabe.
"I don't know. I'm just glad that she's gonna be ok." He said.
"This is all my fault." Dan said in her room.
"You're right." Natalie whispered while the three of them were glad to see she was awake.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean for this to happen." He said.
"You better be. That doesn't make up for everything else though."
"Again it doesn't."
"When can I go home?" She asked Gabe.
"They said in a few hours." He said.
"Okay." She said, as her dad started apologizing for what a horrible father he had been.
A/N: Sorry if it's kind of short, and sorry for the crappy ending. I just haven't updated and I needed to get more ideas. Anyway reviews are the best!
