"can you remember who you were before the world told you who you should be?"

"You were so going to fuck in the closet with him," Willow said to me as we sat on the couch.

"No, we weren't." I deadpanned.

"Sure," Willow muttered.

Right now, the boys are in the kitchen getting drinks while Willow and I were in the living room talking. Melody and Elijah went upstairs because they got bored after we surprised Mathew. I am pretty sure they are playing in Melody's room or watching a movie.

I went to put a movie on for them but who knows what they are doing. But for some reason, I trust the two of them, so I am not worried. I or most likely Grayson will go check on them because he is always worried for his little girl. But why wouldn't he be?

Melody is probably the only person Grayson has in his life, at least from what I have seen.

"Okay so I got the vodka and whiskey," Ethan said as he walked inside the living room holding two bottles of alcohol. "And since we have this beautiful substance, we should play never have I ever."

Ethan sat down on the floor facing us and put the two bottles in the middle. The rest of the boys walk in with other vodka bottles and whiskey bottles in their hands. Grayson sat down on the armchair next to Willow and Kayden sat down on the floor next to the couch which was right next to me. Mathew came in as well with a birthday crown and he sat down next to Ethan. They all handed us our own bottle.

"I'm down," Willow said shrugging her shoulders.

"Okay then everyone already knows how to play right?" Ethan asked looking at everyone and we all nodded our heads. "Great so I will ask first," Ethan said while opening the bottle of whiskey. "Never have I ever made out with someone who is the same sex," Ethan said.

I didn't drink and I look around the room and see that Willow drank making me widen my eyes.

"I was drunk at a party, and we were playing truth or dare," She said with a small smile. "Plus, she was a great kisser," Willow said before drinking out of her bottle. "Okay never have I ever had a threesome."

I see Ethan take a drink and I laugh. For some reason, I wasn't surprised that he has had a threesome.

"I don't even want to know the details," Grayson said with a grimace on his face,

"Yea same so next," Mathew said.

"Never have I ever flirted with a teacher," I said, and I see Kayden, Ethan, Mathew, and Willow drink. "Really?" I asked all of them and they nodded their heads while drinking out of their bottles.

"Okay never have I ever been dumped," Mathew said with a smirk, and Grayson and I drank.

"I have never been in a relationship. I have only ever done one-night stands." Willow stated while shrugging.

"Have you ever fucked Ben?" Ethan asked with furrowed eyebrows.

"No. We are just friends. Why does everyone think we fucked?" Willow said while furrowing her eyebrows.

"Because you guys are always with each other. Plus, whenever people see a boy and girl hang out a lot, they automatically think they are dating." Ethan shrugged.

Ben isn't here tonight. He had to stay home and help his family with dinner since they were having family over. So, he wasn't here.

"Well never have I ever been on a dating website," Grayson stated in a bored tone.

I see Ethan and Willow drink. No one asked anything about it cause it's kind of irrelevant.

"Never have I ever watched porn," I stated. Everyone in the room drank. "Way to make me feel left out guys, "I muttered, and they all laughed.

"Never have I ever been in love," Kayden stated and then I see him look at me.

Grayson and Mathew drank. I had a feeling Grayson loved someone, but I had no clue that Mathew did.

"Never have I ever used a lame pick-up line," I said looking at Ethan and he rolls his eyes and drinks.

So did Mathew and Grayson.

"I actually have a new one for you," Ethan stated with a smirk. I raised my eyebrow waiting for him to say it. "I'm peanut butter, your jelly, let's have sex."

I chuckled lightly and so does everyone else.

"That was stupid," Mathew stated.

"I'd like to see you try better," Ethan said the same time we heard the doorbell ring.

Grayson got up from his chair. "I'll get it."

"Mathew, you do one," I stated.

"Ok-"

"What the fuck are you doing here?!" I heard Grayson yell.

I look at everyone before standing up and walking out of the living only to see Robin with a smirk and Grayson standing in front of him.

"Alexis, Willow go upstairs to the kids," Kayden stated. Willow didn't waste another second before running upstairs to where Elijah and Melody were. I didn't move though; I stand in my spot right behind Kayden. He looks down at me. "Please go. I'm not going to ask again."

I nip at my lip and follow Willow upstairs.

"What's happening?" Melody asked as I walked into her room.

Her room had light pink walls with butterfly decorations on the wall. I can tell Grayson spoils her a lot. She also has a huge chest full of toys and then a small desk where there were crayons and some paper on top filled with drawings.

"Nothing. Your dad just had to take care of something so Willow and I are here to make sure you still have fun." I lied and walked closer to her.

Elijah was playing a car game on the tablet and Melody was just sitting on her bed with Willow next to her.

"Willow I want to show you something." Melody said and she grabbed Willow's hand and pulled her to her desk.

I sat down next to Elijah and watch him play the cars game. He was so focused on it.

While watching Elijah play the game, I hear a crash downstairs and a bunch of yelling. I look at Willow and she looks at me with a worried look in her eyes.

"What was that?" Melody asked as she lifted her head at me as if I would know the answer.

I stand up and open the door a little so that I could see what's happening downstairs. Instead of seeing the boys be calm, I see a guy beating Mathew up downstairs.

Mathew looked like she was going to faint, and he almost looked unrecognizable.

I get out of the room and close the door gently. I grab a metal decoration that Grayson had on the shelves, it was super heavy.

I then throw it on the guy who was beating Mathew, making the guy stop punching Mathew and faint and fall to the ground.

"Shit. Alex!" I heard a familiar voice say and I hide in the corner so they couldn't see me from upstairs.

"Get out before I make sure the rest of you get out into the hospital," Grayson said.

I don't hear anyone say anything else. Instead, I hear the front door open and the footsteps walking out.

I close my eyes and lean my head against the wall as I feel my heart rate slow down.

"Are you trying to get hurt?" I open my eyes and see Kayden standing right in front of me. "Whatever. We need to go to the hospital. Mathew fainted and isn't waking up."
