When Quinn woke up she felt her cheeks were wet. that was when she remembered. She picked up the frame even though it had glass on it and walked out of the room with it. she went downstairs to the lounge where she found all three of THEM sat down watching TV. Quinn walked over to David and snatched the tv remote from besides him and turned the TV off.

"What the hell!" Noah said. that was when he saw the broken picture frame. that was when each one of them went silent. "why would one of you do this!" She practically shouted. "god there's no reason to shout!" David snapped angry. "what makes you think that one of us did it!" He continued. She shook her head irritated. "well you three hated me since the second I got here and it doesn't get smashed and ripped all by its self!" Fraser stood up. he smirked. "what if we did do it! What would you do about it!" He said coming closer and closer until they could feel each other breathing. Quinn didn't know what to say. their all bigger and at least a year older than her. "you had no right." she said.
"So." he continued. she was about to walk away when he grabbed her arm. "you want to know what gives us the right little miss perfect?! Huh?" He said. his grip tightened and she put the frame down but more like dropped. Her eyes were watering she could feel tears wanting to break free. "ahh." she silently let out a noise of pain. the other two just watched and Frasers grip just got tighter. "I haven't done anything to you. you three are stubborn little idiots that only care about themselves!" She snapped. he gritted his teeth. eye to eye they were locked. "Mum left us for you! Then she left us again with this little brat! Are you better than us huh?"

Quinn stopped and didn't say anything. she could tell he was angry that there mother chose to take her and have nothing to do with the others. she knew that both of her parents wanted her, but only one of them wanted them. she had something that they never had something that they can never have again.

"Fraser please you're hurting me." she let out. he glared at her. "mum was ill I don't know what was wrong. I don't even want to be here! When I found out mum was ill it was a call a week later from the hospital after someone had gone through our stuff to see if there's any contacts. they didn't know I existed. when they did they just called me because I was on holiday with one of my friends after mum ensisted I go and someone had already taken most of the stuff to a charity shop or where ever they take it. they left my room, but because i was meant to be going into care they just got rid of her stuff. they thought there was no one left in the world who would give a shit about what happens to her and her belongings. well there was someone. There was ME! And now your here giving me this crap! Well i don't need it." she shouted. tears and tears were coming down her face. she was so upset. "I just can't do this anymore." she continued. Frasers grip loosened, but he didn't let go. "well at least you had a mother to miss." David muttered.

Quinn pulled away from fraser. she heard what David said but ignored it. her attention was drawn to the broken picture frame on the floor. she bent down and knelt besides it. she touched the glass not caring if she cut herself. a few pieces of the ripped picture were still on there and she touched the side of her mothers cheek in the piece of the photograph. she rubbed her finger against it gently stroking it. she gritted her teeth trying to contain the pain as she got cut sharply from the glass. she removed the glass and stood up.

She turned to see her three so called brothers watching her. "you know that's one of the only things I had left from her. yet you destroyed it. how could you..... you're meant to be....my.....brothers." her voice trailed off, but they kind of got the message. she was exhausted from crying. irritated and still angry and her finger was slightly bleeding. they didn't do or say anything they all just stood there. Quinn rolled her eyes and looked at the hand print on her arm from how tight Frasers grip was. "you know it only takes one call and in out of here and shoved in the care system, maybe that would be better." she said looking at them and her arm once again and then she stormed off into the kitchen.

She walked over to the sink and turned on the cold water tap. she ran her bleeding finger under the tap and the bleeding did stop. when she was finished leaned against the side and touched a round necklace on her neck. it was an oval shaped locket. it was one of the few other things that she did have left from her mother.

"Quinn?..." Noah asked his voice trailing off as he finished what he was saying. she stopped fiddling with her necklace and it dropped back on to her neck. " what do you want now?" She asked giving him attitude. he wasn't angry though, he realised she was right to be mad. "seeing as though we have to spend the day together, do you want to watch a film in the lounge with us?" He questioned. he was still kind of cold, but Quinn was getting used to it. "fine." she said with a sigh. "I've got nothing better to do."

The two of them went through to the lounge and went and sat down. Quinn noticed there was an option to sit next Fraser of David. She chose David. She went and sat next to him, but there was space between her and him. Noah sat on the arm chair and Fraser sat on the other sofa. noah got up and picked the TV remote from the centre table and turned it over to dvd. he then put one of the insidious horror movies on and Quinn widened her eyes. David, Fraser and noah noticed. "don't you like horror movies?" David asked. she hesitated "not exactly."
"We can put a different film on if you would like?" Noah asked her. "yes if you're too scared!" Fraser said with an evil smirk. she shook her head. "no...no its fine. we can watch it." she glared at Fraser as the film began.

She pulled a Cushion closer as the women walked into her baby's room to attend to the crying child. she picked the baby up and rocked her slowly. that was when a dark creepy red eye face was hidden in the curtains. Quinn screamed. the women ran out of the room and away from the terrible being that was stood in the room.

David paused the film. "are you alright?" David asked. he didnt seem like he cared though he just wanted her to shut up and get on with the film. "God you've made us half death!" Fraser rudely stated. she just rolled her eyes and nodded. "go on play it again." she told them with a bit of a sigh. "are you sure?" Noah asked though he may of been a bit concerned. she nodded once again and the film continued to play.

Quinn ignored the film for the rest of it and eventually fell asleep. Quinn didn't want to watch the film. she rather do anything else. she knows in one way what is like with boys because of one of her old friends who's mother was a close friend of Quinn's. he and her would watch them even though she hated it! His name was William and he used to scare her afterwards and she would have nightmares for months.

Finally the film did end and the boys noticed their sleeping sister. "is she asleep ?" Noah asked. David looked over at her as he was closest. he nodded and saw the mark on her arm again."shit! She's still got the mark on her arm from earlier! If dad sees that!" David noticed. Fraser shrugged "then we know she's a snitch Aswell as a bitch." Fraser continued.
"Fraser don't you think you went a bit too far earlier. she's right one phone call could get a social worker here and they could take her away...shes still our sister even if we don't like her. and dad will be pissed. we'd all get it!"
"Whatever should we wake her up? It's getting late now and dad will be home any minute!" Fraser said.
"But what if she says something?" David asked.
"Then we know never to trust her again. okay?" They nodded. "so who's gonna wake her up?" Asked fraser. "and it will not be me!" He said. Noah looked at David. "well you're the oldest." David sighed and responded "whatever, I'll do it then."

David went closer to to Quinn. They were basically next to her. he felt a bit sorry for the girl he was looking down on. he knew they had been horrible to her, but he still didn't like her. he gently shook her. "are ever so gently!" Fraser mocked. David rolled his eyes. "well you do it then." Fraser gave him a funny look. "no why should I?" David shook his head. "oh I don't know maybe because she's you're sister to!" Fraser smirked. "alright you've convinced me! Just give me as second." said fraser. he stood up and walked over to the centre table then picked up a glass of water from it. he walked back to his sleeping little sister who he didn't care about and threw the water that the glass contained in her face. she jumped up and was shivering. "what the hell?!" Fraser looked down on her and pinched her cheek. "aw you were so cute sleeping....what a shame." he mocked continuing to squeeze her cheek. she pushed his hand away. "get the hell off of me!" She snapped. "aw when I was just starting to have some fun." she glared at him and went out of the room.

Quinn walked through the hallway to the downstairs bathroom. then she went in. she looked at her self in the mirror and then down at her arm. it was sore when she touched it. "ah!." She let out a sound of pain. the handprint was fading, but the redness contained. she washed her face quickly and walked out of the bathroom with a sigh. she went down the hallway and took her phone out of her pocket. she went out the front door and went and sat on the porch on the front steps.

From the lounge the boys heard the front door slam. "she hasn't gone out has she? Dad would kill us if she's not here when he comes back. Noah went up to the window and moved away the curtain. he saw his sister sat on the front step on the phone. "she's on the phone?" He said turning to face them. "she's not making that one phone call that will mean she's out of our hair is she?" He asked sounding worried about his father killing them if she made that call. "Na she wouldn't, probably on the phone with some looser. and if she was dad wouldn't let them take her. it wouldn't be our fault." Fraser told them only caring about saving his own skin.

"William?...hey it's me." Quinn said into the phone. "aw hey Quinn how are you?" He questioned sweetly. she hesitated. "I'm....awful. truth be told I hate it here and I haven't even started school yet. I've been here for less than twenty-four hours and I already have three brothers that hate me and a big painful red mark on my arm that is forming into a bruise." she said glad to let everything out. "did someone hurt you?" He questioned concerned. Quinn shook her head as if he could see. "no... will we were having a argument and my dad was out and then fraser, one of my brothers grabbed my arm and his grip kept tightening." tears were coming down Quinn's face. "he physically hurt you?" Quinn sighed, but he then continued "although I know it's no excuse and you know I love you and everything? Well you know what me and max my brother are like? We fight all the time. maybe I have given him a few bruises and scratches as he did me. me and you have marked each other aswell and had fights. it's just normal as long as nothing goes too far." Quinn let out another sigh. "well believe me I hope it doesn't for my sake! I just done know how long I can do this for. I feel so alone." she told him. "you know if my mum could of taken you in she would of, but you're dad has the right to have custody over you and after my father left she already has three kids. remember when we talked it would have been too much even if you got out of living with you're dad." he said. Quinn sighed "if coming to live with you was the thing to fall back on I would have made sure this wouldn't of worked out, but even with me wanting this too it's not working. I'm unwanted." she said.
"Quinn don't worry, I promise it will work out. I've got to go love you..." he said and she responded "loved you too....." and the call ended.

Quinn put the phone down besides her. she buried her head in her knees bringing them up to her chest. She cried. she sat there weeping on the steps. normally she is so strong, but everything has grown out of proportion and its too much. she wiped her tears away then she let out a deep breath and looked up. she slowly stood up and went back into the house.

She walked back through to the lounge where the boys were doing their own thing. Quinn went over to the sofa opposite the TV where Fraser was sitting, but she didn't really care. she sat on the other side of it, but the same one. he only so much glanced at her acknowledging her existence and turned back to the tv. her arm then caught his eye. his eyes widened and glanced over to David who realised and Quinn was oblivious to their silent conversation. when she did notice she said "what?" Bluntly. she saw both of them looking at her arm that looked pretty bad. "does it hurt?" David asked. Quinn looked down at her arm. "now you care?" She asked surprised. "I'm just wondering." Fraser looked back at her and kept looking at her and then her arm. "you're not going to tell dad are you?" He questioned.
"Thanks for caring so my answer to the question you asked which was am I going to tell about my bruise that my brother painfully gave me?....wait and see."
"God be a snitch then. now you won't just be a bitch you will be both." Quinn was hurt by those words. she doesn't think anyone has ever called her a bitch the way he just did and it have so much of an effect. "Like I said wait and see...." she said with a bit of a sigh.

Almost an hour later the front door opened. Quinn was sat in the same spot, but now had a book in her hand. as for the boys they were all sat on the sofas still watching tv. their father entered the house and made his way through to the lounge to find his children together in the lounge. he smiled at the sight of them all together.

"So how have you four been?" He asked looking down at all of them. "good." they replied. George walked through over to one of the sofas and sat besides David. "what have you been up to? He continued to question. fraser was looking nervous, he was wondering if Quinn was going to mention her arm. "we just watched some films and something. nothing special." noah answered him. their father nodded. "so you got along peacefully? No arguing?"
He persisted. "dad everything was fine." Quinn reassured. fraser was suddenly pleased. she hadn't told him. she actually didn't say anything....or she may of not said anything, but their father noticed. his eyes widened and stood up. "what on earth happened to you're arm!" He said grabbing it. she let out a sound of pain as he grabbed it. he didn't notice her pain he just wanted to know WHO did it. "did one of you're brothers do this to you? Quinn if one of them did this to you, you should tell me." She swallowed hard. she looked at each of her brothers and they were waiting for her to rat them out. "oh this? It's nothing. I'm not exactly how I got it exactly, but it's nothing. I probably slept on it funny. it's probably because I bruise easily." she said moving her arm out of his grip. "are you sure?" He questioned. she nodded. he looked at his sons and her like he didn't believe them, But he decided to let it go.
