Throwing Stones at Glass Houses
Chapter 3
Jack's POV:
I hopped in the car with Zack and Rian hopping in quickly behind me. We sped off driving to my house. We quickly pulled into the driveway and went inside. "Stella," I screamed. I heard a loud crash up stairs and stormed up the steps. Zack pushed ahead of me bursting into her room. She sat in the middle of her floor, glass shattered around her. There was blood dripping from down her arms and cuts on her legs and one on her cheek. She sat there crying with her knees hugged in her chest. "Stella," I whispered. She looked up at me uncovering her buried face from her knees. "Jack what's going on," I heard a little voice call. I turned around to see Lydia standing on the other side of the door frame. I froze, unable to speak, unable to think. "I'm sorry," she said crying. Zack ran to her and helped her up. Stella stood crying into him. The blood continued dripping from her arms dripping onto Zack's shirt. He hugged her tight to him stroking her head. I cleaned up the mess. She smashed her mirror. I picked up the picture I had put on it. It was a baby picture of her and me. I put it on her desk tears trickling down my eyes. My poor sister was going through something I can't even explain. Zack took her downstairs to clean Stella's arms up and Rian took Lydia to her room to explain to her what had happened. I walked down the steps with a shirt for Zack to change into.

So I originally found this on Mibba, but came over to this site once I saw it wasn't finished on there (and seeing you said you had a profile on here in an author's note), to see if you maybe finished it on here...
You didn't, which is a bummer. :( But you did get one more update up on here in comparison to Mibba, so that's something.
I really like what you have of this story, and bummed that you didn't continue/finish it. Especially after reading this last update; I had a feeling what all was between her and Vic was kind of rigged, but wasn't sure. Now... :O
I'm just wondering why Alex hates her so much. I mean, at first I thought it was because he liked her, so he teased her, but then he just started getting awfully harsh and then like almost took advantage of her... like WTF. I also can't believe Jack would be friends with him after seeing him hit his sister, just because he seemed "alright"... that was a bit weird.
But I think you're a really great writer, other than those missing factors. Some of those you were probably leading into explaining more and just didn't get to, which is really unfortunate.
If you ever find yourself wanting to write for this story again, I will be here to read. I also subscribed to it on Mibba too, although this seems to be the most up-to-date version. But regardless of which platform you post on, I will read. :) I think it's a really intriguing plot line and I would love to see how it all ends.
Hoping this comment will maybe inspire you to continue. If not, just wanted to let you know how much I have enjoyed this and just wanted to show you that people like me are still stumbling across your story. :)
