AN: Thank you guys for all of your support! I really appreciate it! Well, I think I've gotten enough reviews on the last chapter to give me some inspiration for a new one.
I'm gonna try something this chapter, so please don't bite my head off for it. (Be gentle If it works, then it does, if it doesn't, then I won't do it again. Okay, I will try for this bribe first:
1-2 reviews= 650-850 words (normal)
3-4 reviews= 860-1,060 words (unusual)
5-6 reviews= 1,070-2,000 words (really unusual)
7-8 reviews= 2,010-3,000 words (strange)
9-10 reviews= 3,010-4,020 words (hard)
10+ reviews= 5,100+ words (extreme)
Every fave and follow that comes with it adds 5 more words to how many reviews I get. The duration of this bribe starts now and ends (since I am nice) in two weeks.
While I'm waiting for that time, I'll be jotting down things that could happen (I'm really good at that) and I'll come up with something rad.

As Avery ran up the stairs, she ignored her family as they called for her. Her heart was thundering too loud for her to hear the concern that they were showing through their words, and made her way straight to her bedroom.
The blonde slammed the door and hopped to her bed, throwing her petite body onto it. Blankets puffed up around her and hovered in the air for a few seconds before floating back down.
Avery could feel sweat trailing down her face, and in the palm of her hands as she tried to settle her thoughts. It was strange: she could think-everything was going through her mind at the moment-but at the same time, she couldn't form a coherent thought. Too many things were blasting through her head that she couldn't latch on to one single thought. It was as if her perfect railroad, with only one train, had suddenly mutated, growing other sets of tracks and spawning new trains: they were running all over her mind, even careening off of the new tracks and onto the grass, causing a headache to form.
She didn't know what the heck just happened. It all had happened at once; her not wanting him, to wanting him, to wanting him to want her, to kissing him, and to her kicking him in the shin. She was freaked out by the amount of emotions that she was feeling.
Groaning, she lifted her head to get a fresh breath of air. Tears formed in the corners of her eyes, the prickling causing her to blink several times. A knock sounded through the room. Avery sniffed, then promptly yelled for whomever it was to go away.
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Please let me in," Karl's voice pleaded on the other side of the door. A bump was heard, as if he had slumped on the door.
Something in his voice made Avery's heart do a somersault. She didn't say anything as she sat up, thinking about her next course of action. Should she let him in? What did he want? Did she make a fool of herself? What was she going to say? What was he going to say? What was this? What did she want?
She screamed, trying to flush all the questions out, and think of answers instead.
Banging on her door made her stop. The franticness of it snapped her out of her daze. "Avery! I'm coming in!" Suddenly, Karl was right beside her, putting an arm around her shoulders.
Avery leaned into him, suddenly feeling at ease. She buried her head into his chest, sniffling again. He rubbed her back, not saying anything. He had a feeling that this is what was needed.
Out of nowhere, her family barged into her room, stopping abruptly as they saw the scene unfolded in front of them. They were in shock.
"Karl! Mom, I told you something like this was going to happen if you let him in!" Tyler exclaimed, making the wrong impression.
"Calm down, Tyler!" Their dad said, still staring at his daughter and Karl.
"Nothing is happening. He's comforting her." Their mom defended, pointing at the two of them on the bed.
"Tyler, she screamed and I came in here to calm her, nothing else." Karl said softly, finding Avery's brother's eyes.
"Go away!" Avery shouted, her voice muffled by Karl's shirt. "I need to talk to Karl." She pulled back at the last part to look at her family with a pointed look.
"Look, I'm not leaving! I don't trust-" Tyler started to say, but his sister cut him off.
"-Just go, Tyler. Nothing is going to happen!" She looked at him with pleading eyes.
Her father said something, ushering his wife and daughter out, disappearing out of sight."Tyler, come on!"
Tyler stood there for a few seconds more, surveying the scene once more, making sure that nothing was going to happen before taking a step back. He slipped out of the door, turning around once more to stare at Karl. "I'm guessing you don't need a warning, as this is one." And then he left, leaving the door wide open.
"Shut the door, please." Avery asked, looking down at her hands, which were intertwined, twiddling nervously with the other.
Karl did as he was told without a word, getting up. He closed the door at stood there for a few seconds.
AN: another cliff hangar. Sorry guys. I crashed your hopes last chapter. Does this raise them back up?
