Today was the day, I could go home. My parents didn't come to visit me one while I was in the hospital. Shows how much they care. Edward and Alphonse came to pick me and bring me home.

"Feeling better?" Al asked as Edward roller me out into the world in the wheelchair the hospital lent to me.

"I guess." I responded.

"So do you wants us to take you home?"

" Yeah."

We walked to my house without saying a word. When my house was in sight I saw my mother and father sitting on the porch, I walked through the door, the didn't say anything. Al waited outside. Edward brought me to my room.

"Are you sure your going to be alright here?" Edward asked as he lay me down on my bed.

"Yeah, I guess." I said.

"Well if anything happens you can talk to me alright?" Edward said hesitantly.

"Okay." I said.

Edward walked out of the door. I watched as him and Al left. Maybe I should have went with them. I don't feel safe here, but I feel safe here. The day passed very slowly. It neared 11 o' clock. I lay down to got to bed. School tomorrow, great. Maybe I should skip. No I can't do that. I'm sick of that place, I'm sick of that place. Derek was right, I am worthless. Im just an accident. A burden, a freak, someone who's broken. Who would love that? Edward wouldn't. I don't blame him, I wouldn't either.

Maybe today will be different. Maybe not. I went to the first class of the day. Art. God how I hated art. "Welcome back Ms. Warnes" Mr. Hoffmann said. "Yeah" I replied.

"Damn, she's alive" I heard somebody blurt out. Then I felt a hand grab my shoulder. I turned around, it was Edward. "Just ignore them." he said. Derek wasn't here today. He had gotten suspended for saying those horrible things to me. He deserved worse.

Nobody really ridiculed me today. I guess it was because of my recent suicide attempt. It was raining outside. I had to walk home too. I started toward home. Trying to cover myself from the rain I put my arms above my head, It didn't really help. "Hey Danielle!" edward shouted from behind me. "You wanna come to my house?" he asked.

"You mean our house." Al added.

"Uhh, yeah I guess" I said.

"Good. O here put this on" Edward threw my his jacket.

We arrived at their house a short while later.

We watched T.V. most of the night. They offered me dinner but I said I wasn't hungry.

"So Ed, you know homecomings coming up soon right?" Al asked.

"Yeah, so. What's your point?"

"Who are you going to take?"

"Who said I was going?"

"You should take her"

"Shut up Al"

" I saw you kiss her in the hospital"

Edward blushed, as did I.

"Do you wanna go?" Edward asked me.

"Not really, I would just get made fun the whole time." I said.

"No you wouldn't, I'd make sure of it. It'll be just me, you and Al."

"I guess so."

Nothing really happened in the past month, I got teased, but not as often. I still cut myself all the time and I don't eat much, and it was showing. I only weighed 100 pounds. Al took me shopping for a dress one day. I offered to buy it, I guess he wants to surprise his brother. But I'm not pretty, not like those other girls. But could he possibly see different?

As for Me and Edward, we got a little closer. I guess. We haven't kissed since the day at the hospital, but we are spending more time together, maybe he just feels sorry for me and lets me escape from my dad.

My dad, now that's a different story. His beatings have gotten worse. I have shown Ed or Al the bruises, but they'll see soon enough when I have to put on that dress. The only reason I'm going to homecoming is for Ed and Al. I honestly do not want to go, I'm scarred. I've never been to a dance before. But with Edward there maybe it will be alright. God how I love him. But I doubt he feels the same for me. But wait, he did kiss me, or maybe he was being nice. Really nice? Maybe he really does like me.
