NORMAN'S POV:

𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑 I hear that mom might have killed someone because she sold drugs to them.. I start to shake and sob but with no sound I kind of just freeze and out of habit I start to look around to try and find something sharp to cut myself with or do something. Alice is in Nathan's arms because he's trying to just keep her calm.

𝐁𝐄𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐄 Alice was talking up a storm and when she heard the news, she just went silent. I finally find some sharp office supply thing from Nathan's work bag and I subtly start to make marks on my arms that's when Morgan turns and starts to see blood dripping down my arms.. "Hey Lilith do you know if we're near a store by chance?" Morgan asks and Lilith yelled back "..There's a Walmart nearby I'll pull up now." as Lilith pulls up Morgan takes off his sweater and wraps it around my arm. "Anyone need anything?" He asks and everyone just asks for a snack or something. By this time Alice had calmed down enough to where she fell asleep but she was still shaking a bit.

𝐀𝐒 me and Morgan walk in Morgan runs too where the bandages are and when he comes back he pays for them instantly and then he takes me to the bathroom and wraps my arms. "Norman give me it." He says softly. I act confused (and dumb) and say "What do you mean?" He gets a bit louder and more strict and says "Norman give me IT!" I place the what had seemed a paper clip in his hand and he flushes it down the toilet. He kisses me and he head out to the store area again and gets everyone's snacks and head to the car after paying. As we continue driving and eventually get to dad and Pa's place. when we get inside Dad is crying on the table with Pa over him trying to comfort him. "I FUCKING HATE THAT BITCH SHE CAN GO FUCKING KILL HERSELF JUST LIKE SHE DID TOO THAT POOR FUCKING MAN!" Dad yells and starts throwing things at the floor and breaking it. Nathan and Lilith take us all to their room and tell us to stay here until out they calm down.

(THIRD PERSON)

𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐒 heard the news and lost his shit. But the truth is no one knew if Catherine even actually did it she's just one of the suspects another is Lilith's ex. Ace Graysen. But the very thought of him made the white haired girl that was seen as strong and tough not as strong or tough whenever he comes in the picture so even though everyone thought of it no one really said anything about thinking was him. As Nathan and Lilith tried to calm Artemis and Lukas down, Morgan and Norman went to help Alice and it also distracted Norman from cutting again.

That's when somthing fell out his pocket. A cigarette box that's when Morgan noticed and picked it up and suddenly started to cry. "You said you fucking quit.. THIS SHIT IS HALF EMPTY!?" He hit Norman on the side of the head and that's when Alice hit him. "THERE'S BETTER GODDAMN WAYS OF DEALING WITH IT OTHER THAN HITTING NORMAN WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM?!" then Alice grabbed Norman by his arm and dragged him into another room.

Everyone is feeling fucked up right now and it's all Catherine's fucking fault everyone knew it. She's the reason everything is happening and the drama and just everything.

That's when the phone rings..

Everyone is panicking running for the phone when Lukas grabs it

"Hello is this the Rover Residence?"

"Yes who is this?"

"This is the police department we have updated on the Catherine Rover case Apperntly she has someone working for her someone by the name of Ace Greyson if that sounds familiar. Anyways we are going to keep them here until we can bring them in court."

Lilith starts to breath heavily and Nathan hold her as she starts to sob in fear.

"Thank you so much please update us if there is anything else."

Lilith starts to panic. She can still feel his rough hands on her. She starts to rub her skin relentlessly trying to get his touch off of her. She pushes Nathan away and runs to the bathroom and turns on the shower. She doesn't even take her clothes off she grabs soap and starts scrubbing so aggressively.

Nathan starts heading to the bathroom and Morgan stops him "Wait no let me other than her I have the most experience with sexual assault.."

Morgan heads to the bathroom and grabs the loofa from Lilith's hand and starts gently scrubbing as he tries to strike conversation "I know how you feel when I was younger I had a teacher that did something to me.." Lilith stays quiet but looks at him with sorry eyes.

"At least if he really is working with Cathrine he'll be locked up and can't do anything.." Morgan says it in a comforting way and Lilith finally starts talking.

"Yeah I guess your right and thanks Morgan I'm sorry I didn't know that happened to you.." Lilith says softly under her tears.

"I mean after awhile it gets better still stressful and anxiety inducing but overtime it gets better for sure." Morgan stops scrubbing and gives her a towel to dry herself even if she was fully clothed.

"I'm gonna get you some fresh clothes." Morgan gets Lilith some simple shorts and one of Nathan's band shirts. Lilith gets dressed and goes to her and Nathan's room.

"Leave her be for now. Nathan this is a hard thing to deal with remember when my teacher got out?" Morgan says. Everyone is still in panic but Luckas stays the calmest after the phone call and helps everyone to brush their teeth and for Alice to take her pill and everyone goes to bed.

With everything going on... we all wondered if we were gonna make it... everyone held a heavy fear in there hearts...
