Eliza's POV

*A Few Days Later*

"Eliza," I heard someone whisper. I slowly opened my eyes to see a figure standing by my bed.

"Oh my god!" I exclaimed, jumping up and clutching my chest.

"Shhh, it's just me," the figure said. I finally recognized the voice as Carter and turned my bedside lamp on.

"Jesus Carter! You scared the shit out of me! What do you want?" I asked, my voice returning to a whisper.

"Can I sleep on your floor tonight?" he asked.

"What's wrong with your bed?"

"Uhmmm," he said, chewing on his bottom lip as he began to avoid eye contact.

"What?" I questioned.

"Eli has his girlfriend over," he said nervously.

"Girlfriend?" I questioned, still half asleep.

"Yeah, Amelia."

"She's here?"

"Yeah. They're in his bed."

"Oh my god, you're fucking kidding," I said as I swung my legs over the side of my bed.

"Where are you going?" I asked.

"To go get mom and dad! What the fuck do you mean where am I going?" I asked as I stood up.

"Please, no. He'll be so mad at me. He does this a lot, I'm used to it. I just need somewhere to sleep," he said, lightly pushing me back down.

"He does this a lot? Why the hell is this the first I'm hearing about this? This is horrible, Carter! He shouldn't be subjecting you to this!"

"Eliza, I'm not a baby who needs their innocence protected. I'm fifteen. I just need somewhere to sleep. If you don't want me to sleep here, I can go to one of the girls' rooms."

"Where do you usually go when he does this?"

"One of their rooms. They're starting to threaten to tell mom and dad, so I came to you."

"Well, I will tell mom and dad," I said, standing up once again and pushing past him to my door.

"Eliza! Please, no!" he begged, tugging on my arm.

"Carter, this can't keep happening," I said, shaking him off of me and opening the door. I raced down the stairs to my parents' room, Carter close on my heels, begging me not to tell.

"Mom, dad!" I called as I opened their door.

"What?" my dad asked, sitting straight up, my mom slowly waking up.

"Eliza?" my mom questioned.

"Elijah has his girlfriend up in his bedroom and they're having sex," I said, my parents' eyes almost popping out of their heads.

"What?" they said in unison. My dad jumped out of bed, pulling on a pair of sweatpants as he stumbled his way through the bedroom. He pushed past me and hurried up the stairs. I quickly followed him, Carter and my mom behind me.

"ELIJAH CHASE!" my dad shouted as he slammed the door open.

"FUCK!" I heard Elijah yell as I heard rusting, which I assume was him trying to cover up.

"GET DRESSED AND GET THE FUCK DOWNSTAIRS. BOTH OF YOU!" my dad shouted again and then shut the door. He turned around and pinched the bridge of his nose, letting out a big sigh. He finally opened his eyes, looking at Carter and I. "Downstairs," he told us and we nodded. "Did you two know about this?" my dad asked, looking over us, jabbing his thumb backwards towards Elijah's door. I turned to see my sisters standing in the hallway.
