Unpredictable (c.h.)

Chapter Eleven

*Trigger Warning*

After snapping at Ashton, I fell back asleep. I woke up to an obnoxious sound coming from across the hall, now that nobody is mad at Luke anymore, I guess they are uploading covers again, I just hope Calum is watching the "doll" as he promised. I looked at my alarm clock and realized it's 2:30 damn stress makes me tired. I got out of bed and walked to the bathroom to take a shower. I got undressed and looked at my scars, I can't do this, I can't take my dad to court, he will hurt me again. Just thinking about it made me pull out my blade. At this point I didn't even know what I was cutting for. Fear? Anxiety? Insecurity?

Once I was done I stepped into the shower, slowly turning the water on because I knew it would sting. Sure enough, when the water hit my newly cut wrists, it hurt like a motherfucker. I held back my screams because then people would wonder why I was screaming from the shower, so I suffered in silence, like usual. I washed my body carefully trying not to cause any more pain than necessary. I stepped out of the shower and frowned, realizing I had forgotten clothes, so I had to walk across the house in a towel. Now usually I wouldn't care, I would just walk back to my room. But my brother and his friends were in the next room, and my newly cut wrists were exposed. I decided to just book it. I ran out of the bathroom and past Ashton's door. I was passing his door when it suddenly opened and knocked me down. "Fuck" I thought to myself. Thank god my towel still covered everything. If it didn't I would've died.

"Oh my god I am so sorry" Luke said as he helped me up.

In the room I could see Ashton, Mikey, and Calum laughing they're asses off. Grand. Old them has made it's appearance again. As Luke grabbed my wrist I winced in pain.

"What the hell?!" He said, now noticing my new scars.

"Just leave me alone Jesus." I yelled as I ran into my room sobbing.

Why me? What did I do to deserve this? An abusive father, low self-esteem caused by him, drama. What did I do? I couldn't take it anymore so I went into my bathroom and grabbed them. The pills. I didn't know what I was doing. It was just a blur of sobs and pain. All I knew at that time was that my life wasn't good, and I thought it never would be. So I did it. I took a handful of sleeping pills and curled up in my closet clutching a picture of a happy family, something I thought we would never be again.

I couldn't believe was cutting again. Was it caused by us? I mean I know our father started it but it probably didn't help that we continuously teased her. Why did she do it again? All of this made me so angry, so I moved away from the drum kit in my room and punched the wall. The rest of the guys just sat there in shock but Calum looked like he was, crying? As weird as Calum's actions were, I needed to help my sister. No matter what bitterness I had I never lost the protectiveness I felt toward my sister. I never did ask mom why she was mad, so I went downstairs to confront my mom about it but when I got there she was talking to some cop dude.

"Um mom, who is this?" I asked, confused.

"Oh hi honey, this man is going to help with the prosecution of your father." She said politely.

No wonder Naomi was upset, she was scared.

"Mom don't you think this is too soon, I mean you were just notified about this yesterday, how do you think Naomi feels, she fears this man and she trusted you to keep her secret until SHE was ready to tell it, and now she's scared out of her mind that he's going to hurt her." I blew up. I mean how stupid do you have to be, she has been holding in this secret for years and now you just blurt it out to some stranger.

"I think you need to leave." I said to the officer, pointing to the door.

My mom just looked in shock while he walked out telling her that he would call her about it later.

"What the hell Ashton?! Last time I checked this is my house and I can have over whoever I want and you can't make them leave!" She screamed.

"I can if you're hurting your daughter and my sister, fuck it, I'm leaving." I couldn't take it anymore, my mom understands nothing, God it's like the only thing she thinks straight about is the baby. I walked out the door and down the street to the park. Before mom divorced that awful man, they fought, a lot. And me and Naomi used to always come here when they did, this was our sanctuary. I smiled at the memory, we didn't care that we had a broken home, all we needed was eachother and we could be happy. She always will be my best friend, were bonded by blood. This realization also made me come to my senses and walk home, I needed to help her through this like we've helped eachother before.

Mikey's pov

Honestly we didn't know what to do, Naomi was in the other room sobbing, Ashton just got  into a fight with his mom, and now he's gone.

"Well this is awkward." I said in the silent room of me, Luke, and Calum.

"Oh um ya, let me call my sister, she can deal with Naomi." Calum said trying to mask the fact that he was crying.

"Okay mate." I responded, not really wanting to press him about it right now.

Calum's pov

"What could you possibly want brother?" Lexi groaned through the phone, shouldn't she already be awake, it's 2? Probably the alcohol we consumed last night after Ashton and Naomi left tbh. Anyway...

"Naomi is crying I think, and we need you, Kennedy and Bella to come deal with it."

"Wow, spoken like a true gentlemen, I'm on my way, bye."

"Bye" I said ending the conversation, I'm pretty sure she already hung up though.

"Alright people I'm here" Lexi said coming upstairs about 2 minutes later.

She came into Ashton's bedroom and we explained the situation to her and the other girls.

Lexi's pov

"I know you're here Naomi" I said softly as I walked into her room. I couldn't find her at all.

"Oh My God" Bella screeched as she looked in the closet. There was a half-conscious Naomi with a bottle of pills and a picture in her hand.

"Call 911" I yelled as Kennedy took out her phone. She gave the address to the operator and now we had to wait.

"What's going on in here, I heard screaming." Luke said as him and the boys came in. Wait where's Ashton? Oh ya the boys told me he blew up and left, bad timing Ashy.

They walked over to where we were and gasped. Calum started- sobbing?

Ashton pov

I got back to my house only to see an ambulance and a crying mom coming out of the house.

"Jesus what happened mom?" I asked demandingly. She just cried harder and pointing to something I would never be able to unsee. My sister being carried out of the house in a stretcher.
