Maddie's Pov
I was in the kitchen with Amy working on my essay when there was a knock on the door.
"I'll get it!" Amy jumped up from the table and ran to the door.
"Hi is Maddie Berry here?"
"Yes just a minute." Amy walked into the kitchen, "Maddie it's for you."
"Coming." I got up and walked to the door, "Salutations how may I he-Rose!?"
"Hey baby sis how are you?"
"What are you doing here? Who's that? How did you find out where I live?"
"Okay first of all mom and dad gone and there was a note on the counter with your address on it. Second this is Luke, remember you met him in high school a few years ago and third I-er we came to talk to you."
"Luke…..oh Luke Coline you were my sister's friend before you two started dating. I was a sophomore when we met."
"Yeah it's good to see you again."
"Why don't you two come in and we can talk about whatever was so important you had to talk to me in person about."
���Well I'll let you kiddos talk. I have to run to the store anyway. See ya M! Oh before I forget Sally's working late and Jake should be home in an hour or two!"
"Ok bye Amy."
"One of your roommates?"
"Yes, that was Amy and Jake and Sally are at work right now."
"Oh come on now didn't you miss me?"
"Yeah I did but you know I'm not one for sediment. Now what did you need that acquires my attendance?"
"Well we wanted to invite you and one guest to our….wedding!"
"Oh alrigh-wait what!"
"We're getting married!" She showed me her left hand which had a ring on it.
"Rose that's amazing. Really I'm proud of you." I had a rare smile on my face as we hugged.
"Yeah...anyway the wedding is on Saturday May 22nd, 2021."
"Ok thank you for the invite but um, where and what time?"
"Oh right here." She handed me an invitation, "It's got all the info on it."
"Alright thank you Rose."
"Of course well it was good to see you again Mad but we have to get going see ya!"
"It's you not ya." I mumbled as they left.
I finished my essay and was walking out of my room when I heard the front door open.
"Maddie can you help me put the groceries away please!"
"Of course Maddie. Salutations Jake how was your day?"
"Fine. I'm going to practice my lines, let me know when Sally's home."
"Alright kiddo!" She turned to me, "So who's Rose?"
"My older sister, she was dropping off an invitation for her wedding."
"That's nice of her. Will your parents be there?"
"I don't know but hopefully Rose would be disappointed if they weren't."
"Would they really miss their daughter's wedding?"
I shrugged, "They missed birthdays, performances, and graduations, along with holidays why not their daughters wedding." I sighed, "I hope they have some common sense to get their heads out of their work for once and pay attention to one of their daughters and be there for her."
"Yeah…"
Amy's Pov
I heard a knock on the front door and walked over to it. I opened the door to see...my mother!?!
"What are you doing here?" I hissed under my breath so Maddie and Jake wouldn't hear.
"I'm here to take you home. This has gone on long enough."
"You're crazy if you think I'm going anywhere with you."
"Amy?"
I looked behind my mom to see Sally.
"Sal! I thought you were working late tonight?"
"No I said I would be back late from the movie theater…."
"Oh! Sorry I must have misread the text."
I quickly sent a text to Emily and Quinn making it look like I was checking Sally's message.
"Who's this?"
"No one. They were just leaving."
"Can't we talk about this?"
I sighed, "Fine you have five minutes."
I opened the door to let her and Sally in.
I led her to the kitchen, "What could you possibly say to make me want to go back?"
"Come on Amy you know I didn't mean what I said. Besides I'm your mother I'm suppose to take care of you till you're done with school."
"No. You're crazy. You hurt me, made fall into depression, and made me want to kill myself in highschool and after kicking me out of the house and telling me not to come back you think you have the right to find out where I live and try to make me go straight back to how it was. Well guess what my answer is no now get out before I call the police.
I felt a hand on my shoulder and looked behind me to see Quinn and Emily.
"Oh great it's the coffee addict and the walking tv."
I snapped my head back to my mom, "You can insult me and tell me to go die all you want but leave my friends out of this."
"Then come home with me." She smirked.
I let out a low chuckle before stepping forward and grabbing her hand. I pulled her to the door and shoved her out.
"You ruined my life and broke me to pieces for eighteen years. Enough is enough, now leave. Me. Alone!" I slammed the door shut and turned around.
Maddie, Jake, and Sally were standing in the archway staring at me, mouths agape. I slid down the door bringing a hand to my mouth. Emily and Quinn came and sat down beside me. Quinn pulled me into his lap and ran his fingers through my hair as Emily talked to me.
"It's ok Am, you're ok. She's gone. That was very brave of you, she'd be crazy to try that again. How are you feeling?"
"Cat onesie…"
"Ok why don't you go put it in and we'll play a game while a movie plays in the background ok."
I nodded and went to my room to put my onesie on.
Quinn's Pov
I sighed as I helped Emily off the floor.
"What the heck was that?!"
I turned to see Sally, Jake, and Maddie standing in the archway, "That hun was Amy's darkside telling her sorry excuse of a mother off for trying to drag her back to a sorry excuse of a home."
"I've never seen Madre so scary before….."
"Yeah well I'm going to go get some coffee. I'll be back, do you want anything Emily?"
"Just a tea and don't forget a coco for Amy."
"I won't brb."
Im back!"
"Finally what took so long?"
"I was gone for five minutes."
"Yeah five minutes I couldn't get Amy out of her room!"
"What!" I set the drinks on the counter and walked over to Amy's door, "Amy honey! Can you open the door please."
All I heard was a muffled sob and what sounded like a cry of pain.
"Amy you have five seconds to open the door before I kick it down."
Nothing.
"Five."
"Four."
"Three."
"Two."
"One!"
I kicked the door making it open and saw Amy sitting on the floor by her bed, arm out, other hand hovering above it holding a blade and blood dripping from her arm onto the wooden flooring.
"Amy what the heck do you think you're doing!?!"
Her head shot up and she blinked a few times before looking back down at her arm. She shrieked, dropping the razor and looking back at me.
"Emily I need a washcloth and bandages!"
"On it!"
I ran over to Amy taking her arm, "Amy Baker what were you thinking! You could get addicted to cutting! You could've seriously hurt yourself!"
"I'm s-sorry I d-don't know what go-got into m-me. I d-didn't mean t-to hon-honestly! I'm so-so sor-sorry Quinn!"
I sighed as Emily ran back in with a first aid kit and a wet washcloth. I cleaned the cuts and Emily started bandaging her arm.
"Don't cry hun it's done and over with and you're never doing it again." I ended with a stern voice.
She nodded her head and latched onto me in a hug. I ran my hand up and down her back and put a kiss to her head as she cried.
"Hey don't cry it's ok we're not mad. Ok? I got you a hot coco. Emily can heat it up while we start a movie ok."
"O-ok…"
"I'll be right back with your coco Amy."
Emily walked out dragging the other three with her.
"How about Monsters Inc.?"
She nodded and we got up and headed to the bed.
"Can I trust you to be alone while I go get the movie?"
"Yeah…" She grabbed the Stitch plushie we got her for Christmas one year and got under the covers, "I'll be ok I promise."
"Ok how about you get the tv set up and get comfy."
"Ok."
I walked out and grabbed the movie from the living room.
"Hey Quinn."
I turned to Jake, Sally, and Maddie, "What's up?"
"Is Amy ok?"
"She'll be fine after a few movies and some cuddles."
"Ok. We'll be back in a bit we need to run a few arens. Also could you let Amy know I'm handling dinner tonight."
"Got it." I walked back to the room where Amy and Emily were talking, "Let's watch some movies!"
I placed the movie in before climbing into the bed with the other two holding Amy.
