I was sat on the school field with the only two people I call friends.
Erica and Jake.
"I'm seriously gonna kill that brother of mine." I said as I found out Rowan had stolen my stuff from my bag.
"Which one?" Erica asked.
"Rowan. The little bastard has stolen most of my stuff out my bag." I said.
"How do you know?" Jake asked.
"Because the cheeky asshole left a note." I said and looked round to see if Rowan was on the school field.
I spotted him and got up.
"Just leave it." Erica said.
"I'll be back okay." In said and walked over to him.

"Hey sis what's up?" He asked as he carried on smoking.
"That death stick is going to kill you and I want my stuff back." I said.
"Fucks aren't given and I don't have your stuff." He said.
"Bull shit Rowan. You even left a fucking note in my bag saying you took my bloody stuff." I said.
"Oh you mean your books and that?" He asked.
"Yes you asshole." I said.
He chuckled and gave my stuff back.
"Don't get so stroppy about things Finn." He said.
"You would fucking hate me if I took your stuff so leave my bloody stuff alone." I said and walked off and went back to Erica and Jake.
"We have class." Jake said and we got up and walked to class.

Me and Rowan walked in silence as I was still really pissed off with him.
"Ah come on Finn. Lighten up I was just messing." He said as we walked in the door.
"Hey guys." Dad said happily.
"Hey." Me and Rowan said together.
"Messing? You would fucking hate me if I did that to you! In fact you would fucking murder me!" I said loudly.
"Calm down Finn I was having fun." He said.
"Fun!? Stealing my stuff isn't fun Rowan! Fucking push me into a locker or something to have fun but you do not steal my stuff!" I said.
"Why would I push you into a locker?" He asked and looked at me for the first time since we got out of school.
"Because other people do! So why wouldn't you!" I snapped.
"Finn, who's been hurting you?" Dad asked seriously.
"Why the fuck does it matter? Not like anyone gives a actual shit about me." I said and looked at dad.
"Finn that isn't true. We all give a shit about you. People hurting you does matter." Dad said.
"No it doesn't!" I said loudly.
"Rowan go to your room and do your homework." Dad said.
"But I'm hungry." Rowan said and walked to the kitchen and looked in the fridge.
"Don't eat to much. Come with me Finn." Dad said and went upstairs and I followed.

We sat in his and Pa's room.
"Sweetie what's the matter?" Dad asked and made me look at him.
"Nothing. Rowan just pissed me off." I said.
"Sweetie please tell me what's wrong." He said but it came out as a plea.
"Just feel like I'm losing my head. I just feel so lost in my head I don't know what to do." She sniffed and looked down.
Dad pulled me into a hug and held me tight.
I buried my head in his shoulder and just let the tears fall.
"Do you want me to make a doctors appointment to see what's up?" He asked quietly.
"I don't want to end up like Seth." I sniffed.
"You won't. Not with help, anyway you look at the crazy bastard, he doesn't let his problem get to him." He said.
I nodded.
"Okay." I said quietly.
"Good. Do you want me to help you with your homework?" He said and kissed the side of my head.
I shook my head.
"I was hoping to make something." I said and looked at him.
"Cupcakes?" He asked.
"Yes! Help me?" I said.
He smiled.
"Okay." He said and we got off the bed.
I pulled him into a hug which took him by surprise.
" Love you." I whispered.
"I love you too." He whispered back.
I smiled and hugged him tighter.
"Come on let's go and make these cupcakes." He said and pulled away.
I smiled and followed him downstairs.

Alex's POV

Rowan and Finn was in their rooms which left me and Jack cleaning the mess.
"I'm worried about her Jack." I said and put the dishwasher on because we couldn't be bothered to wash up.
"Finn? She's a tough little cookie." Jack said and gave me a glass of wine.
"She went fucking mental when her and Rowan came home." I said and had a mouthful of wine.
"What about?" He asked and stood in the gap of my legs.
"Rowan being a shit, but Rowan wouldn't be Rowan if he wasn't." I said.
Jack sighed.
"Want me to have words with him?" He asked.
"No. Think he got the message when Finn lost it." I said.
Jack chuckled.
"She does have a temper after all." Jack said.
"She does and she is someone I don't want to fuck with when she's older." I said and put my glass down on the side.
"Just like Aidan then." He chuckled.
"Hm, I think she might be worse than Aid." I said and wrapped my legs round him.
"You hinting about something?" Jack chuckled.
" Might be." I said and kissed him.
He chuckled and lifted me off the side which made me giggle.
"That's a sound I haven't heard for a while." Jack said and kissed me.
I just smiled and Jack out me down and we went upstairs.
