This chapter is dedicated to babiixilyx3 it's her birthday! PM her or something!
Max POV
I woke up and groaned. Yes, I actually did that, it's not something that only actually happens in movies. Why was I groaning, you ask? I had to work with Fang. Oh yes, it was the dreaded 'project day.'
Running downstairs, I saw my parents talking. "…Valencia, it's critical to science! Please! Let me use her!"
"No, Jeb!" Mom said back firmly.
Jeb looked at her with exasperation. "Do you know how much money we'd get? Not to mention how much we could help humankind!"
Mom rolled her eyes. "I don't care."
Then he said it. "I never loved you. I have another son. The only reason I married you was so…" he lowered his voice and I couldn't hear.
Mom looked shocked. "I'm going." She stated quietly with tears forming in her eyes. Thank God Ella's at some soccer camp. She walked out the door and slammed it shut.
I looked at Jeb. The tears were forming. Tears of pure rage. "I HATE you, Jeb! I absolutely HATE you!"
I ran out the door. "Mom?" I asked, feeling so hurt. Hurt can't even describe the way I felt. Words cannot be uttered to help you understand what I was feeling. Would Mom ever come back?
Jeb ran out of the house. "Valencia, wait! I didn't mean it!" I hate him so much. I wish he would just go and die.
I ran inside. I couldn't even think. I knew what I needed. I needed my knife. Not just a knife, it was the knife.
As soon as I got to my room, I drew a line. It was thin, and the feeling was only slightly relieving. I pressed a lot harder and the feeling was better. But it wasn't enough. I couldn't stop. I needed to stop. But I couldn't. Was I going to kill myself?
(A/N) Maybe if you're lucky, I'll put another chapter up. Depends.
