/Parker's POV\

On my way to school, I noticed that staying up all night reading Logan's notebooks were probably not the best idea.

"Parker? You awake buddy?" Kyle rubbed my back. Huh? I'm at school already. I look at Kyle.

"Huh?"

"I'm guessing not." He sighed. He patted my back before removing his hand.

"Sorry Kyle. I was up all night reading..."

Kyle scoffed. "Don't lie to me."

"I'm not." I whined.

There was a pause. "Is that a new jacket?... It smells..." He gasped. "Oh my god! Who's the guy?!"

I sighed. "I honestly was reading last night."

"Na uh~! I don't believe it! Come on tell me!" He shook my shoulder, successfully rattling my brain around my head.

"Ug! Boy! Stop!" I swat at his hands and whined. He stopped but huffed and crossed his arms.

"Well if you'd tell me who the guy is I'd leave you alone."

"His names Logan-"

"Oh my god! I knew there was a guy-"

"But I haven't seen him in awhile. This is his jacket. And I was reading through his diaries last night. I stayed up all night reading them."

Kyle scrunched his nose up in distaste. "The dude writes in diaries? Isn't that a chick thing?"

I scowled at Kyle. "You did not just call him a chick." I crossed my arms. "There is no way I'm going to let that slide."

He held up his hands in surrender. "I was kidding!"

I narrowed my sleepy eyes at him before trudging down the hall again. Kyle on my heels.

"Come Parks. Talk to me."

"No thanks."

"I don't even know the guy- I'm sorry."

"Apology accepted..."

He blinked at me for a moment broke out smiling. "Thank you!" He hugged my arm.

"Parker! Happy early christmas!" Rang out four familiar voices. Brittany, Charlie, Megan and Caleb. Each had a small gift. They weren't able to spend Christmas with me this year like Kyle is, so they decided that on the last day of school (before winter break at least) they would celebrate a mini Christmas with me.

"Thank you guys!" I smiled happily. "Let me get yours! Oh and Kyle, your present is at my house. It would ruin the surprise if I came to school with it." I took off my backpack and reached inside. We all exchanged presents before continuing on with the day.

Funny thing was, Ezekiel wasn't here today!

Best day ever!

Well if Logan was here it'd be better...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Lets head to my house okay Kyle?!" I got some sleep during lunch and free hour and feel like a baby. I have so much energy.

"Yes sir!" We linked arms as we made our merry way to my house. My heart felt heavy though, even with my outburst of energy. As soon as I get home I feel as though that I might break down. At lunch I feel asleep curled up in Logan's coat and when I woke up I was upset that he wasn't actually there.

"Mom in home!" No answer. I shrugged and me and Kyle went into my room. It was just a I left it. With the notebooks on my desk, my bed neatly made and Logan's stuffed animal setting there.

"Awe what a cute teddy! But it looks like it's like a hundred years old." He picked it up.

If only he knew

"It's Logan's. he said its been passed through his family for generations..."

"Ah. It is old. I better be careful." He set it back down slowly. He looked around my room again. His eyes zeroed in on Logan's notebooks. I shook my head no.

"He only let me read them. It has all of his secrets. Sorry..."

Kyle gave me the puppy eyes and got down on his knees sticking his lower lip out. "Pwease let meh read them..."

"No."

He huffed and got up "fine!" He crossed his arms like a child and turned his back to me.

I rubbed my temples. This is gonna be one long night.

Oh I didn't mention? He's staying the night tonight.

>.>

"So Parker... When do I get that present you mentioned?" Kyle smiled devilishly.

/Logan's POV\

"Bas-tard-" I breathed out.

"Oh you do have defiance left in you~" Pierce giggled and raked his hand down my bare chest successfully opening up the cuts he made earlier.

"Just leave me alone! I've learned my lesson!" I begged. I couldn't cry anymore because my tear ducts have run dry.

"But I still have you till midnight. We have two more hours love... Did I mention Red looks absolutely dashing on you?" He grabbed the already bloody knife and raised it, poised to strike. I screamed in utter terror as he brought it down, sinking it into the flesh in my side.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Awe don't look at me like that... Logan... You honestly can't tell me you enjoyed you stay." Pierce pouted. All the other council members grimaced. They didn't expect Pierce to be so... Harsh... But I am his favorite.

"I didn't... Now if you excuse me..." I spun the wheelchair I was in around and wheeled myself out of the courtroom. I wheeled up to Arthur and my sisters.

"Logan your being bothersome to everyone around you. I really hope you learned your lesson, and learned it good." Arthur spat at me. Obviously not his favorite child anymore.

"I'll try not to." I hung my head. "And I did learn my lesson."

"I can very well see that." Arthur mused.

There wasn't a spot on my body that wasn't bruised or bloodied by cuts and stab wounds. I had rope burns on my writs and ankles and my hands were broken. My thighs had been stabbed at least twice so it hurts to walk. No ones even bothered to clean or patch me up.

"Can we go home? I really need to fix myself..."

Arthur got behind my wheelchair. The dark veil of us transporting fell over us and within seconds I was in the familiarity of my room. But a couple things were missing, as far as I could see, my favorite stuffed animal and the picture frame I told Parker to take.

"Take a bath. I'll make you dinner." Arthur grabbed Alia and Cynthia, not wanting them near me anymore, he left me alone in my room. I wheeled into the bathroom and turned on the bath. A depressing feeling made my chest feel hollow, my heart didn't thump like it used to. I knew if I didn't get help or do something to patch myself up with I'd probably die soon.

My hands ached but I forced them to do what I needed. And once I was safely in the tub I noticed just how much blood was on me.

The water was a dark red...
