A/N-I DO NOT OWN THE NAKED BROTHERS BAND!

Hey guys!

Well...I kinda rushed out the ending of this chapter...

But I hope you guys still enjoy it!(:


Nat's POV

At dinner that night, Rosalina was unusually quiet. I mean, after everything that happened, I really can't blame her, but it still worried me. I'm hoping that Dad thought about what I said though. There's something really…wrong with Mr. Tai when he's drunk. I know that people do odd things when they're drunk, but it was really odd that he doesn't remember any of it.

That night, Rosalina had to sleep on the couch, which I wondered how it would go because of how clingy she was being. (Like I said, I really don't mind.) Dad had already gone to his room, which left me, Alex, and Rosalina in the living room. Alex and I got some blankets for Rosalina, and we turned off the lights.

"You can keep the TV on as long as you want, okay?" I told her.

She nodded. "Okay, thanks guys."

We walked back to our room and once I got into bed I fell asleep instantly.

Nobody's POV

Alex opened his eyes, only to see the bottom of his brother's bunk. Aw man, He thought. I have to go to the bathroom. He quietly got out of bed, and was about to walk into the bathroom, when he heard something outside of the bedroom. He walked out into the hallway and looked around. Nothing was there. He walked towards the living room, where he could see a light on. He stood at the end of the hallway and looked into the living room.

Rosalina was sitting up, watching TV with her knees pulled to her chest and a blanket wrapped around her.

I should get Nat… He thought immediately, but stopped. But what if she just can't sleep? Should I go say something first? He turned back around, and walked into the living room and cautiously as possible. "Rosalina?" He asked quietly.

Rosalina looked at him with a panicked expression on her face, but relaxed when she realized it was him. "Oh…Alex…what are you doing awake?"

"I had to go to the bathroom, but I heard the TV," Alex said, sitting down on the couch.

"Sorry," She said, looking down.

"It's cool. I was just wondering…are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. I just couldn't sleep."

"I hate when that happens."

She smiled weakly at him. "What do you do when you can't fall asleep?"

"I usually talk to Nat."

"Do you think it'll work for me?" She joked.

"Probably. Nat's good at this kind of stuff." Alex stood up from the couch. "I'll be right back." He walked back to his bedroom, climbed up the ladder, and shook his brother. "Nat? Nat, wake up. C'mon, get up."

Nat sat up and rubbed his eyes. "What's wrong, Alex?"

"It's Rosalina. She can't sleep. She looks exhausted, bro. You gotta get her to fall asleep."

"Okay." Nat climbed down from the ladder after Alex, and he walked out of the bedroom and into the living room. "Hey Rosie," He said, sitting on the couch. "Are you okay?"

"I'm…peachy," She sighed.

"What's wrong?"

"Do you think my dad cares about me anymore?"

"Rosalina, of course he does. I've been telling you, he's just been making some bad decisions lately. I don't think he realizes how much it hurts you."

"He doesn't realize that he slaps me?" Rosalina asked, with tears in her eyes. "He doesn't realize that he yells at me all the time?"

"To be honest, I don't think he does, Rosie," Nat said softly. "Because I know that if he did, he wouldn't do it to a girl like you."

"I did something wrong, didn't I?" She asked, as tears slipped down her cheeks. "I did something to deserve this."

He shook his head. "No, Rosalina, you've got it all wrong. You didn't do anything wrong at all. None of this is your fault."

"Then whose fault is it?"

Nat stopped before he answered. It was Mr. Tai's fault. But it seemed like Rosalina refused to accept that just yet. It seemed like she wanted to make it her fault, or anyone but her dad's. He sighed. "Is that what's bothering you? Is that why you can't sleep?"

Rosalina nodded slowly.

"Rosalina, listen to me. It is not your fault, okay? You didn't do a thing to anyone. You don't deserve this. Your dad just made some bad decisions that had some bad results. Don't worry about this anymore."

"I…I can't."

Nat pulled her into a hug and rubbed her back. "You need to get some sleep, Rosie. This isn't good for you."

"I know," She said, readjusting herself so that her head was on his chest.

He gave her a goofy smile. "Am I a comfortable pillow?"

She smiled up at him. "Very."

He pulled the blanket over her. "Then try and get some sleep on your new pillow."

"Thanks, Nat. Seriously."

"Rosalina, you honestly didn't expect me to just let you sit out here did you?"

"Well…no, but I mean…I don't think anyone else would still be my friend by now."

"Too bad, Rosalina Tai. You're stuck with me."

~NBB~

"Rosalina, c'mon we have to get up."

She opened her eyes. Nat was sitting next to her, and she was wrapped up in a blanket. "What time is it?" She asked, sitting up.

"It's almost eight-thirty."

"What are you doing up so early?"

He grinned, but said, "So I wake you up late and you yell at me. Then I wake you up early and you still yell at me. I can't do anything right."

She smiled. "No, you're doing something right. I mean, you have over thousands of fans because of your own songs right?"

"Whatever. Just get up, okay? My dad wants to talk to us."

Rosalina nodded and got up. She straightened herself out, and then met Nat and his dad in the living room. She sat down on the couch next to Nat.

"Rosalina, first of all I just want to say, you can stay here as long as you'd like," Mr. Wolff said.

She nodded. "Thank you, Mr. Wolff."

"I know that you won't be able to talk to your dad."

Nat looked at Rosalina, who nodded slowly.

"But we can't just ignore him."

Neither of them responded.

"I will try talking to him, but I can't make any promises."

"Then what will we do?" Rosalina asked.

"Hopefully, I can talk to him when he's sober, and he'll take the advice. If not…then I might have to call the police if he continues to cause you trouble."

"No!" Rosalina said, standing up. "I mean, you don't have to do that. It's not necessary. I'll be fine."

"But Rosalina, it's for your safety."

"It's not his fault he's like this! He's just…" She sighed. "Could you please excuse me…" She walked out of the living room and up the stairs.

Nat only looked at his dad, and walked out after Rosalina. "Rosie," He said as he saw her sitting at a window.

"Nat, I'm–"

"You're not fine, so don't tell me that."

"It's not his fault, Nat. It really isn't."

"Rosalina...I think you need to know that…in a way it is your dad's fault. I know at first I said it technically wasn't because he would never drink. But after he's done it a few times and it seems to be getting worse each time, no one else but he is making himself drink. No one else but him drinks so much so that he gets drunk."

"No, you're wrong! It's not his fault! He can't help it!"

He took her hands in his. "Rosalina, I promise you I would never lie to you. Your dad makes his own decisions. But now, he's just made some bad ones. But please, don't do this to yourself. Don't blame yourself for something your father is doing."

"I'm not. I just…I can't…" She trailed off, searching for the right words. "I can't get myself to believe that my dad would do any of that. Even though I've seen it time and time again, I still can't believe it."
