I hadn't left my room last night and this morning. David hadn't bothered to come and see me but, sent Fraser to tell me I could come out but, I refused. Stefan even forced his way in and came and sat with me and tried to get me out and to talk to him but, I wouldn't. I don't want to leave my room to spend time with people like them. I have been crying and I didn't want them to see me the way I was. I wouldn't face Stefan when he came into my room. I was weak and they could see it. The guy act I had has disappeared and the old Quinn has returned and I hate myself for it. Honestly I just want someone to hold me and tell me everything will be alright but, I feel like my demons have come back to haunt me. I remember more about my life before and the memories are replaying in my mind and I can't forget, ever. They won't stop and each time I remember something I burst into tears.

Fraser's P.O.V.

I had spoken to my sister for David but, she wasn't interested. I could tell she was upset but, she wouldn't talk to me so there was nothing I could do.

"Has she still not come out yet?" David asked.
"Nope." I replied.
"Leave her she's just seeking attention." Jacob said which, made me curious. What does he have against her?
"Probably." Noah agreed.
"Well she hasn't eaten last night or today, she needs to eat something." Mason said.
"She can starve for all I care, she doesn't deserve anything." David said.
"You don't mean that." Stefan said.
"No I agree with him. She's being a brat." Jacob said. Why does he hate her so much?
"This is ridiculous! I'm going to get her down here." Noah said mad and before any of us could stop him, he was gone.
"Why are we letting him go? This is Noah. The two of them hate each other." Mason asked, clearly confused.
"They didn't always, they used to be really close." I told him.
"Noah and Quinn close? Yeah right." Jacob said not believing any of it.
"Yeah it's true until the whole accident thing, I don't understand why she's so mad." Harry said.
"It was her friend."
"Well I don't like her, she's a bitch." Jacob told us.
"You should watch it, this is our sister your talking about." I threatened. He rolled his eyes at me, he didn't seem to be scared of me. Why would he be? I am younger than him, smaller and not as strong as him.

Noah's P.O.V

This was ridiculous I mean why is she still in her room?! She is seeking attention. I was sick of this and I'm going upstairs to stop it.

I walked to the end of the hallway and as I came to her door I heard a noise coming from her room. Was she crying? I sighed. Before I would of gone in and comforted her and it hurts to hear her crying her eyes out and not do anything but, she is still a brat. However she's still my sister. I'm sick of fighting. What's the point?

I opened the door to find she had blocked it so I forced it open and found her sat against the wall on the other side of the room. She didn't look up when I walked in. She had her legs brought up to her chest and hid her head.
"Get out." She said not looking up so she didn't know it was me. I sighed and went and sat down next to her.

"I told you to get out!" She snapped, looking up to see me sat besides her. She seemed shocked that it was me and almost embarrassed that she was crying As she looked away from me. "No." I told her simply.
"What are you doing here Noah?" She said, wiping her eyes.
"I've come to talk to you." I replied.
"Why? You hate me."
"Your so over dramatic. I don't hate you." I admitted.
"You don't?" She asked kinda shocked.
"You are my sister. I just dislike you."
"Oh." She said and I could tell she was trying to decide if she should be offended by what I said. Another tear rolled down her cheek. "Well I don't like you either." She told me.
"Now we got that out of the way are you alright?" I asked her.
"why do you care if you dislike me?"
"Because I'm your brother, I'm supposed to care." She sighed. She looked me in the eye and two more tears rolled door her wet cheek.
"Noah..?"
"Yeah?"
"I'm... Sorry." She said. I sighed.
"So am I."
"Can we stop fighting?" She asked me and to be honest nothing sounded better.

I put one arm around her and replied "of course." And she rested her head on my chest.
"As long as you stop being a bitch." I said with a smirk. She looked back up at me to check to see if I was serious which, I kinda was but,
In a jokey manner. "Will you stop being such a dick?" She said.
"To you yes." I told her. she nodded.
"That's reasonable so I'll do the same. To you I will not be a bitch." She said which, made me chuckle to my self. I squeezed her tighter and she relaxed.

However I felt my a drop of war or something fall onto my t-shirt and saw a tear roll down her cheek. I pulled her up and wiped it away.

"Why are you crying?" I asked her.

Quinn's P.O.V.

I felt safe and happy with him but, something wasn't right. I still wasn't happy. I think it's because of David. I know that David won't forgive me and my cousins probably think I'm pathetic after everything. I am pathetic. Look at me, I'm literally starting to cry even though my brother is comforting me.

"I'm sorry." I told him. It was all I could say. He just squeezed me closer to him. I didn't get much sleep at all last night because I didn't even get into bed so I closed my eyes and I guess I fell asleep.

Jacob's P.O.V

Noah had been gone for twenty five minutes now, what the hell was he doing up there? It's not that hard to force her out of her room. Just pick her up if she won't come. I can't stand the bitch.

Finally he came down the stairs and joined us in the kitchen.

"Well? Any luck?" Mason asked. It was unlikely. She's a stubborn brat that won't do as her told. "ish. She talked to me but, was
Tired and fell asleep. So I put her to bed." He replied simply.
"You put her to bed?" David asked not convinced.
"I don't think she slept at all last night." He told us and David nodded. Was Noah getting along with her now? Why does he want to get along with Someone like her?
"Did she want anything to eat at all?" Mason asked.
"I didn't ask. She was too tired. She'll come down when she is ready." He said.
"Okay."

*****16:37 pm*****

Quinn P.O.V.

I woke up in my bed later on and looked at the time. It was 16:37 pm. I had been asleep for four hours. I was still tired but, I dragged myself out of bed and out of my room. Eventually I had made my way down stairs and into the lounge where nobody was.

I decided to watch a film and I know it's childish but, I decided to watch scooby doo. I used to love it as a kid. I put scooby doo spooky island on and sat down on the sofa. I put a fluffy blacket over me and watched as the gang was chased by the Luna ghost.

Twenty minutes into the film, two people walked in. I was just tired and half asleep watching the film not paying attention to them until they turned the fucking movie off!

"Hey! I was watching that!" I said, sitting up.
It was Jacob and mason.
"Well you don't deserve to be watching any." Jacob snapped. I huffed and rolled my eyes.
"Come through to the kitchen." Mason said and walked off, expecting me to follow him. I didn't move. Jacob was still there, waiting for me.
"You can go now." I snapped.
"You first." He told me.
"But I'm not going! I'm going to watch the rest of my film." I said and got up and walked over to the tv.
"I don't think so." He grabbed old of both my arms and forced me forwards. It was like how the police arrested people. Except my hands weren't behind my back, they were at my sides.

I was forced into the kitchen where everyone was. I mentally groaned. All eyes were on me and all I wanted to do was run but, there was no way I could get out of here. Jacob wouldn't let me go and was holding me way too tightly so much it hurt and none of the others will help me. I've pissed them all off.

I looked up at Jacob and he looked down at me with a glare. He had this proud look on his face, almost like he'd accomplished something. It made me sick.

David looked at me and his face didn't change. His face was expressionless. "Get something to eat." Mason said to me. I looked up at him, standing besides me and Jacob and then at Jacob. He nodded and let me free. I headed to the Fruit bowl and grabbed an apple. I took one big bite out of it and sat down at the table.

The room was silent. They kept looking at each other and then back at me. I just ate my apple. "This is ridiculous! Are you going to say something to me or what? And what are they doing in here? I mean this is a private matter.
I don't want them all knowing my business. Jacob does not need to be here, neither does Stefan and neither does mason. Family only, not extended." I told them. They all looked shocked with what I said. I think I may of hurt Stefan's feelings. "If that's what you want." Stefan said and walked off.
"I want to see the show." Said Jacob with a smirk.
"And I'm in charge." Mason said.
"Actually my brothers in charge, mason." I said looking at David.
"And Jacob, I know you've got nothing better to do but, this is my life so why don't you get your own?"
"She's got a point I am in charge." David agreed.
"And Jacob don't use my sister like that. This is a family matter." Noah said, sticking up for me. I smiled to my self.
"Well fuck you." Jacob said and stormed off, mason soon followed.
"Well that got rid of them." I said with a grin on my face. Fraser looked at me and couldn't help but, laugh. The others stayed serious.

"That's enough Quinn." Harry said to me and I decided to stop and so did Fraser. I looked at David who was looking right at me. He wasn't amused at all. I was still scared a little bit of David he's terrifying when he's angry. They've all seen me at my worst time now and I hate that. It's embarrassing. "You are in so much trouble." David said to me. "How dare you speak to me the way you did! Who do you think you are?!"

The wall of confidence I had built up had just been knocked down and I was terrified. Tears filled my eyes and I hated myself for it. I was scared. Four older brothers looking down on me they probably think I'm so pathetic. I really hate myself right now.

Fraser's P.O.V

We were laughing but, it soon changed. Then David started having ago at her and Quinn changed. Everything about her did. She looked so scared. She was so fragile, I felt bad. I could see the tears in her eyes. She didn't let any of them out though.

"Quinn Clark." She responded to his question that wasn't supposed to be answered. David was beyond mad now. He was about to come towards Quinn and probably try to hurt her but, Noah stepped in his way.
"Noah get the fuck out of my way!" He shouted.
"Not until you calm down."
"She needs to be taught a lesson." David said firmly.
"Not the lesson your intending to teach her." Noah continued. David huffed and walked away from Noah. He scratched the back of his neck and seemed to calm down.
"Fine. Quinn, you are grounded for the whole of next week. You get nothing, no tv, laptop, phone, iPads, iPods basically everything. You can't use any one else's either." David said.
"She doesn't have half of that stuff anyway." I said but, they all ignored me.

"That's unfair!" She protested.
"Shut up Quinn. That's nothing compared to what Any of us would of got if we did what you did." Harry said.
"I don't care! You can't do that! It's my stuff, what about dad?! Your not in charge, he is. I don't have to do what you say." She said, standing up and coming over to us.
"I got off the phone with Dad earlier this morning and he's not coming back until the end of next week." David said. "And I'm in charge."
"What?! No. Dad has to come back. A whole week? What's so important that he can't come back......Why can't he come back?" She wasn't as firm any more. She sound angry but, also sad.
"He was behind on some case and they needed more time so he's staying for the rest of the week." David explained.

I didn't know either. Why didn't I know, couldn't he of told me? By the looks of it, it seemed that Noah didn't either. However I think Harry did.

"Fine whatever, I don't care but, One condition. I get to use the phone whenever I want and call who I want." She said.
"Quinn we are not making a deal here. This is a punishment. Do you not know the meaning of punishment?!" David snapped.
"I do, of course I fucking do. My stepdad used to..." Her voice trailed off and Harry and he looked at eachother. Now tears fell down her cheeks, David just looked away and didn't acknowledge them.
"I-i at least... Want to talk to Dad." She said.
"Not at the moment." David said and walked away.
"You can't stop me from talking to Dad! He's my Dad..." Her voice trailed off.
"I don't care Quinn. You get nothing until I say so." He said and walked out the room.

More tears streamed down her cheeks and she turned away from us, embarrassed to look at us. Harry walked over to her and hugged her. She just kept crying. I felt bad and me and Noah just looked at eachother and then back out Quinn, confused.

Harry's P.O.V

I held Quinn in my arms. I knew what she meant but, my fathers punishments were a lot worse. This was nothing.

"I'm sorry Harry, I didn't mean it. My dads going to be mad at me, I don't want him to, no I can't, Harry please don't let it happen. Please?" She begged. She was terrified George was going to hurt her like my dad would. She'd never been in this much trouble since she's lived here and Never really been punished. I don't think he'd hurt her, would he?

"I won't let anything happen I promise, it's not going to be like before." I promised. She nodded but, wasn't fully convinced. She turned to our brothers.

"Are you or David going to tell Dad?" She asked .
"David will." Noah told her. Her eyes widened, she looked scared.
"Will he be mad? Will I get into trouble?" She asked.
"Your already in trouble and of course he will be mad." Fraser said, not realising how scared she was.
"No, no he can't.... I can't do... No.." She said to herself.
"Wait Quinn, do you think Dads going to hurt you?" Noah said coming over to her. She didn't say anything, she just looked him in the eye.
"Quinn Dad will never hurt you." Noah reassured.
"Promise?" She asked.
"I promise." He told her.
