Visiting Hallie

[Zach]

Zach had heard that Hallie woke up and he was quick to make his way down to her room, not caring that he was in his hospital gown. She had just told Emmett and David to leave as he made his way inside. “Hallie.” He says before going over to her. “I thought I lost you, please don’t do that again. If you need to talk to someone you know you can call your mother and I at any time baby. How are you feeling?” 

[Hallie]

Hallie wiped her tears away as she saw her dad coming in and she looked at him in the hospital gown. “Why are you wearing that?” She asked in concern before hearing his words. “I know daddy…I’m sorry. I…I don’t know. I’m not feeling great.”

[Zach]

“I had a heart attack, nothing major though. I am more worried about you. I rather you tell us though baby. Did you need some water or something to eat to help with the nausea? I can make sure they get what you need, just don’t do too much because you have lost a lot of blood. Misty came here and helped to heal you or else you might not have woken up.” He tells her as he sat down on the chair next to her and took her hand. “I am sorry Hallie. I am so sorry. I should have been there for you. I shouldn’t have let it get to this point to the point where you felt like you needed to…I am sorry.” 

[Hallie]

“You had a heart attack?” She asked. “Daddy, that is major, does your doctor know you are here?” She asked him again before shaking her head. “No I…I am okay.” She told him before feeling him taking her hand. “Daddy, why are you sorry? You didn’t do this. I did. I just…after seeing the photos I just couldn’t do it anymore. I just didn’t want to be here to ruin things.”

[Zach]

“I should have protected you. I should have made sure that no one took those pictures or had access to take pictures of you. I should have known that something like this would have happened. There is always a way to work through things. I have ruined plenty of things but I have been able to work through those. Sometimes you have to put yourself first. I know you care so much about everyone but you need to take care of yourself. Please. I rather you be here and have us find a way to work through things than to not have you in my life anymore. You are my baby girl Hallie. If I had lost you I would have never forgiven myself.” He tells her as he squeezes her hand and his eyes turn blue. 

[Hallie]

“I know daddy, I am sorry. I didn’t mean to cause so many problems. I just…wanted it all to stop.” She told him honestly before smiling as he squeezed her hand. “But I am okay. I am here. Please don’t be sad. You didn’t lose me. I am not going anywhere.” She assured him as she looked at him.

[Zach]

“Please promise me that you aren’t going anywhere. I mean it Hallie. We can work through whatever it is that is going on and we can fix it okay.” He says before hearing a knock on the door. 

[Henry]

“Sorry I don’t want to interrupt. I um…I wanted to see how you were doing.” He said as he walked into the room and sat on her other side. “I came here as soon as I heard what happened.” 

[Hallie]  

Hallie nodded, “I promise daddy, I’m not going anywhere. I promise.” She said before seeing Henry walk in and smiling softly. “Hi. Sorry you had to leave school for me.”

[Zach]

He sees Henry walking in after he heard her words which caused him to let out a sigh of relief, not even realizing he was holding his breath. 

[Henry]

“It’s okay. I um…Josh and I were able to track down who sent the pictures and managed to delete them all. Your pictures weren’t the only ones on there…but we corrupted the files so no one can ever see them or open them ever again. Any paper copies were already burned. So you don’t have to worry about that anymore okay? No one else knows what happened.” 

[Hallie] 

“Well thank you for that.” She said feeling a weight lifting off her shoulders. “And can you thank Josh until I am able to?” Hallie asked before looking at both of them. “Did you see the pictures? I mean…they told me that you know.” She said softly.

[Zach]

“They only sent the pictures to David and Henry. That was how he was able to track them.” He tells her. “No one else saw them, no one else will ever see them.” 

[Henry]

“To be fair, I was more interested in the photo that had Charlie and Josh in the library together…when I got them Dad knew what was going to happen I think because he left really quick to find you. But no one else has seen them or will as dad says.” 

[Hallie]

“But you know…about me and Emmett?” She asked as looked down. “It’s okay to yell at me, you know? I made the mistake too.” She told her dad.

[Zach]

“I am not going to yell at you when I know you already feel bad about it. I sort of already got all that out when I talked to your brother earlier…is it true though. Do you really love him? I just need to know that this isn’t just some phase or if it’s just a fling or if this is something that is um real?” 

[Henry]

“I didn’t know about it until I saw the pictures honestly. I think it was someone trying to use it to maybe blackmail us in the future to not sell those photos to the magazine companies.” He tells her. “But we both know dad will probably track down whoever it is.” 

[Hallie]

“I…” She blushed slightly as she just kept her eyes away from him. “I wouldn’t have slept with him if I didn’t care about him. I am falling in love with him, but I am also still falling in love with David all over again.” She said before looking at Henry. “Sorry…this is probably something you don’t want to hear.”

[Zach]

“I thought you were already in love with David? When did you not love him anymore? I thought he was your imprint which is why I am confused as to how…it just doesn’t make much sense to me but I can figure that out on my own later.” 

[Henry]

“I don’t mind. I was more concerned about you at this moment. It seems like a lot and I just wanted to be here to offer my support for you and help with anything you needed.”

[Hallie]

“David has been such…he has been such a dick recently. I am trying so hard to get past it and let us fix it but…it’s just hard.” She said honestly. “But I do…I am falling in love because he means so much to me.” She told him before smiling at Henry. “Thank you Henry. That means a lot to me.”

[Zach]

“And then you started acting on your feelings for your brother when David started acting like a dick? Or were they before then? I have no problem roughing him up to get his head back together.” He teases. 

[Henry]

“You are my sister of course I am going to be here for you.” He tells her, “Also Josh says hi.” 

[Hallie] 

“I mean…yeah I guess. I don’t know. I think it started out that way and then it developed into more than that.” She said before shaking her head. “Daddy, please don’t do anything to him.” Hallie smiled softly. “You can tell him I said hi too.”

[Zach]

Zach could hear the people in the hall starting to talk about how he left his room. “Shit they are looking for me. I got to go back. They want to run more tests on me.” He rolled his eyes. “Tests are dumb I am fine. I will see you at home though since your mother should be able to bring you home soon.” He said before giving her a kiss on the forehead and then sneaking back out of the room. 

[Henry]

“I am sure that Josh will be glad to hear that you are okay though. I will make sure to tell him hi as well.” He tells her before the doctor came in and said that Hallie should rest. “Oh okay. I will see you at home then.” 

[Hallie]

“Okay, bye.” She told her dad before watching him leave. She heard the doctor and nodded as she looked at Henry. “Thank you for visiting, I will see you at home.” She smiled before watching him leave.

[shxdowsofombra]

Talking to Hallie

[Henry]

It had been a day after he was with Josh and he felt bad about making Hallie miss prom because he was being selfish. He went over and knocked on her door. “Hallie…can we talk please.”

[Hallie]

Hallie laid on her bed and looked down at her phone as she saw David calling again. She turned her phone off and just sighed. It was hard to talk to him without getting sad or angry at her brother. Hearing Henry’s voice she rolled her eyes, “No. Goodbye.”

[Henry]

“Fine we don’t have to talk but I wanted to apologize for the other night. I was out of line and shouldn’t have said what I did. You were right, I was being selfish and I am sorry for ruining it for you.” He says through the door. 

[Hallie]

Hallie heard Henry’s words and just rolled her eyes. “You are sorry now? You ruined my prom. I…I don’t get another one. You do. I finally made friends, I finally have a boyfriend and you ruined it and now you are sorry?”

[Henry]

“Look, we could always have another one. I can just give you and David my tickets for next year. You know it was supposed to be our prom not just yours. And yeah I said I was sorry.” 

[Hallie]

“Why are you sorry?” She asked as she moved to stand up. “Is it because you snuck out last night and fucked Josh? You don’t think because I’m not a dragon like you, I can’t smell as good. But I can. You are only sorry because you got what you want.” 

[Henry]

“I never said any of that and that is irrelevant to my apology. I never should have said that I didn’t want you as my sister. I never should have said that I hated you because that was a lie. I don’t hate you. I am jealous of you. You have everything now. The friends, the boyfriend and I don’t have that so yeah I was jealous. I never should have said that though.” 

[Hallie]

Hallie’s eyes turned blue as she nodded, “Well…I’m not really ready to forgive you right now.” She said before holding her door. “I have to pack DJ’s things for mom.” She said before closing it on him.

[Henry]

“That’s fine. You can take your time. I just wanted you to know I was sorry.” He says before she closes the door. Maybe she really didn’t want him to be born. Maybe things would have been better off without him. 

[Hallie]

She rested against the door as she started crying and wiped her tears away. She moved to grab DJ’s backpack.

[shxdowsofombra]

Opening the Door

[Hope]

Hope moved to open the door and dipped as Grace stood beside her. “What the fuck are you doing?” She asked softly since the kids were in the room. “You do know this is my house, where are you going?”

[Grace]

“I just…I just thought if Austin saw me he wouldn’t be so shy…he can…he can be rather shy.” She tried to say so she didn’t start a fight with Hope again. “I am just trying to help.”

[Hope]

“Helping would be staying by your husband and not moving. Zach already wants you dead, don’t push it. Austin can see you when he walks in.” She said before looking away from her. “You’re here already. I don’t need Zach thinking something is wrong.” She says as she opens the door and lets David and Austin in. 

[Henry]

Henry was talking with Hallie about what the night was going to consist of but more specifically what Hallie thought the night was going to consist of. He knew this was supposed to be exciting but he wasn’t really sure about it. 

[Hallie]

“Oh I think it will be really fun. Grandpa bought us a limo so I invited some of our other friends for us to pick up. Like um…Josh I think his name is.” She said as she fixed her hair before seeing the door open.

[Henry]

“You invited my ex to come with us to prom are you out of your fucking mind?” He asks to try to see if she was actually being serious about this. 

[Hallie]

“Didn’t dad say we aren’t allowed to cuss at each other?” She asked as she looked at him. “And he needed a ride and he is like a friend of yours so I didn’t mind. And David didn’t either.”

[Henry]

“He is my ex Hallie. Not a friend. My EX. Would you have wanted me to invite one of yours to come with us knowing you have David? No you wouldn’t. It’s common sense Hallie.” 

[Hallie] 

“Oh I forgot you had no friends. It’s too late. I already did it. It would be rude to disinvite him and unlike you, he is really nice to me. So he’s coming. You already have a date so why does it matter?”

[Henry]

“You don’t get it Hallie and you never will. Maybe you shouldn’t have invited him in the first place. I am telling mom that I am not going and you know if I don’t go she won’t let you go either so. You better find a way very quick.” He tells her. 

[Hallie] 

“You are such a baby. Tell mom, I don’t care. You do realize Grace is here because of you and dad looks like he’s going to pop a blood vessel. Stiles is avoiding mom at all costs, this is all because you couldn’t get a date on your own. So yes if you need more drama right now, tell mom.”

[Henry]

“Look I have tried to make up with Josh and it didn’t work okay. He never messaged me back or wanted to meet up. I never asked for any of this. It’s embarrassing Hallie. I thought you would understand that.” He says as his eyes flashed blue. 

[Hallie] 

“You do realize everyone was walking around school calling me a slut for sleeping with my teacher. I am beyond embarrassed everytime I go to school and I have to get over it. You broke his heart so no I’m assuming he didn’t want to talk to you.”

[Henry]

“Yeah I do know that and I helped you through that so you should understand how I feel right now. I didn’t break his heart. What are you even talking about? He didn’t want me. His family doesn’t like ours and doesn’t want us to be together so what am I supposed to do? Mom was not around and you never helped me through it. I was on my own and now you want me to watch as he probably goes with someone else because he doesn’t want me anymore. He broke my heart by telling me all that and not being there when mom was going through…” He suddenly couldn’t breath as he pushed past her. 

[Hallie]

“Oh my god Henry, not everything is about you. Mom was in a coma and I was pregnant. And no I talked to him, Josh only said that his parents didn’t like ours because they were both, at the time, killers. Dad is still a killer and while we are perfectly okay with that, not everyone is and that is okay. His family had every reason to be scared. Dad killed my last boyfriend for breaking up with me. That’s not normal. So stop. Please. Other people have bigger issues.”

[Henry]

“I don’t care if his parents don’t like ours. I was upset because Mom was in a coma and you were having your own drama and I just wanted to escape from it and he kept trying to push me. You know I don’t like talking about how I feel. It was too overwhelming at the time. I know I said stupid things but I miss him and I just want him to want me again.” Henry said before moving to the bathroom. 

[Hallie]

Hallie eyes turned bright red and she slapped him “Fuck you.” She said softly as her eyes flashed blue and she ran upstairs to her room.

[Henry]

“Of course now you make it all about you.” He mumbled after she went upstairs and he slammed the door to the bathroom. 

[Hope]

Hope looked over at Hallie and Henry when she heard the slap and was beyond confused. “What the fuck is going on?” She asked before seeing Hallie run upstairs. “Zach?”

[Zach]

Zach saw Hallie slap Henry and he went over and stopped her before she could make it up the stairs. “Where do you think you are going? We do not slap our siblings in this house.” He says as he grabs her wrist. “Henry, get back out here. We don’t slam doors in this house either.” He called out. 

[Hallie]

Hallie ripped her arm away from him. “Stop it.” She says before running back upstairs.

[Henry]

Henry had tears falling down his face as he opened the door back up. The red mark was already forming on his cheek. “She invited my ex-boyfriend to come with us tonight. And she knows I am not over it but she doesn’t care.” 

[Hope]

Hope was a bit overwhelmed with everything going on and she knew that wasn’t good for the baby. She looked at Zach and then Henry and Hallie. “Everyone in the kitchen, now.” She said. “That means both of you.”

[Zach]

Zach stopped Hallie again, this time keeping her from getting away. “I said where do you think you are going?” His eyes burned red as he spoke to her. “You do not walk away from me young lady. Now get back down here or I am sending David home.”

[Hallie]

Hallie pushed her father away. “I hate you.” She said softly before hearing her mother’s words and stopping. She groaned as she moved to follow them into the kitchen.

[Henry]

Henry followed into the kitchen after his mother. He wiped his eyes, the spot on his cheek turning even redder. 

[Zach]

“You watch your mouth young lady. Listen to your mother and go to the kitchen.” He tells her as he ushers everyone into the kitchen. 

[Hope]

“What the fuck is going on? Hallie, did you really invite Josh without telling your brother? And why did you slap him? Henry, what did you say to your sister that made her so mad?” She asked.

[Hallie]

“I don’t even understand why I have to explain anything. Henry is a dick.” She snapped before sighing. 

[Zach]

“It doesn’t matter if you think your brother is a dick or not, that does not give you permission to slap him or physically hurt him. We raised you better than that Hallie.”

[Henry]

“I didn’t even say anything that bad. I told her that I didn’t want her to invite him and she told me it’s not all about me. I told her it's embarrassing because he won’t get back to me nor will he accept my apologies. And she said that I should just suck it up and be embarrassed like she did in school when she got pregnant. I wasn’t the one that invited my siblings ex boyfriend to come to prom with us knowing how she feels about him. That is a dick move.”

[Hallie]

“You are such a fucking liar. You basically blamed me having my son on you being a shitty boyfriend. No one told you to insult Josh’s family. You did that all on your own. She’s my mom too, you don’t think her being in a coma while I was fucking pregnant wasn’t stressful to me? Dad wouldn’t leave her side, Emmett was a fucking mess, and you…gosh everything is always about you so you were being a dick to everyone.”

[Hope]

Hope tried breathing to calm herself down and ignored the pain in her stomach as she looked at the kids. “You both are being a pain in my ass. Hallie you can’t go around inviting people that you have no business inviting and Henry, you know how sensitive your sister is about the whole pregnancy thing. You both were stressed and handled it differently. You don’t need to fight. You are family.”

[Zach]

Zach could notice that there was a pain in her stomach due to her heartbeat skipping. “Hope, I can take care of this. Maybe you should go back and make sure our guests are okay. I don’t want something to happen, you know.” He says as he waits for her to leave. 

[Henry]

Once Hope left Henry spoke. “She was the one that brought up the whole pregnancy thing. I just wanted her to not invite him. Yeah it was stressful on you too but I am sorry, you have a boyfriend to help you with that so forgive me for not falling at your feet like he does the moment you want something. It was all about you Hallie. Everything is about the princess Hallie. She gets pregnant and everyone needs to help her through it. I have followed the rules and been good and you had me, David, Emmett and mom and dad to help you through your crap. Who helped me? Who kept me from snapping at my boyfriend who had been trying to keep me from snapping at everyone else? No one. No one did because it was all about you!”

“It’s always been about you and the one time I want you to do something simple and not invite the person who got snapped at for everything because no one was there for me. It’s not that hard, Hallie. You knew what happened, you never talked to me once. You never tried to help even once. You went around talking to him and told me things to make me feel even worse about what happened and now you want to blame it on me. No. I hate you. Everything would have been fine between him and I if everyone just did what they were told and followed directions!” He snapped as his eyes turned bright red before flashing black. 

[Hallie]

“Princess? God you are so far up your own ass you don’t even see anything but yourself. If my life was so fucking perfect, I wouldn’t of had to spend everyday with Tommy and Ellie. But no Henry all you care about is yourself and that is why Josh broke up with you. Because people are going through shit. Stop lying! You weren’t there for me. You know absolutely nothing! I moved to David’s house because I didn’t have anyone. I-“

[Hope]

“Henry.” Hope snapped as she heard him say he hated his sister. “Will everyone shut the fuck up?” She said loudly. She groaned as the pain got intense and her eyes flashed red. “No one is going to prom. Both of you, in your rooms now.” She snapped.

[Zach]

“Go. This is a dumb arguement. You shouldn’t have invited his ex Hallie. All this would have been avoided if you understood where he was coming from. You also shouldn’t slap your brother just because you didn’t get what you wanted. There are other things to be concerned about than one person and that goes for the both of you.” He tells them. “Now, do as your mother says and go to your rooms.” 

[Henry]

“It’s never been about myself, Hallie. Never. And just this once I wanted one thing after doing so much for you like hiding that you kept inviting boys over after they both told you not to. The fact I had to cover for you when you would sneak out to David’s. Everything for me was ruined because of you. Because you never follow the rules. I face the consequences of your mess ups. You sneaking out means I can’t go out with anyone anymore because they are worried I might get someone pregnant or do drugs or something stupid. I have a shorter curfew because you kept breaking yours. I am not doing that for you anymore.”

“I am done helping you. You always have to ruin everything. You used to be someone I wanted to be like. I even admired you when we were younger but you changed. You aren’t the big sister I remember anymore. She would have listened and she would have cared. You aren’t her. I wish I never had a sister!” He said as his eyes turned blue before flashing black as he stormed off to his room. 

[Hallie]

“I don’t know what delusional world you live in Henry, but you haven’t done shit for me. Expect ruin my fucking life. I wish you were never fucking born. If you were as smart as you said you were you would know Josh knew you are going to be there and still wanted to come,” She said as her eyes flashed black. “You think that’s why I slapped him? Of course you do. Whatever, defending myself to the person who let someone beat my mother isn’t something I’m interested in. I hate this fucking family.” She said before heading upstairs. 

[Hope]

“Hallie.” She says in a low warning before watching them both leave. She saw them leave the room and she grabbed a bottle and slammed it against the wall. “Fuck.”

[Zach]

“Hallie room. Now.” Zach’s voice boomed loudly in the house as his eyes turned red. He waited until they left before taking a breath. “Hope, just breathe. They just need to calm down.” 

[Hope]

Hope cussed softly as she saw she cut her hand and laughed at Zach’s words. “Breathe? Okay. Do you…are you serious? Our kids hate each other for the dumbest reason in the world. I…I…I am so fucking angry right now. I can’t even see my brother TJ because of what he did and those two think that they have real problems? I…what the fuck do you want?” 

[Grace]

Grace saw the kids running upstairs and moved as she heard something breaking. “I…I just…I don’t mind Henry or Hallie staying with us until they calm down. I know you are pregnant so…I just want to help.”

[Zach]

“You really should not be in this room right now Grace because the only person that is keeping me from killing you is Hope and I don’t think now is the time to be intruding.” He growled. “They are children. They don’t have any idea and they don’t know how to control their anger and feelings. I will handle the kids okay, just try to relax. Try. I will take care of everything else okay?” 

[Hope]

“You know I know my brother thinks I am a really shit mom but I do not need you to take my fucking kids. I can handle my kids okay, thanks.” She snapped as her eyes turned bright red. She looked at Zach and was trying her best to calm down. “She slapped him, Zach. He said he hated her. She said he wished he was never born. You can’t take shit like that back. You can’t. So nothing will erase that pain.” 

[Grace]

“I never said you were a bad mom, Hope. You…I think you’ve done a fantastic job. I am not trying to take them away. I just want to help. No one wants to see them or you upset.”

[Zach]

“Grace if you don’t fucking leave…I swear to god.” He hissed. “I know. They will have to learn to live with that Hope it is part of growing up. Siblings say things they don’t mean all the time. They are just saying it because they are mad. We will give them some time to cool down and it will be okay.” He tells her softly as he cupped her cheeks and kissed her to try to get her to calm down.

[Hope]

“Oh please, you do not think that. I know you love seeing this. Once again my life falling apart and you being there to enjoy it. Except your not forcing my husband to fuck you this time.” She said before feeling Zach’s hand cupping her cheeks. “I don’t know Zach. This is so different. And did you see their eyes…I don’t-” She looked at him before feeling his lips against hers. She wrapped her arms around him as she deepened the kiss. 

[Grace]

She flinched as she heard their words. “You think I think these horrible things of you, but I don’t. And I have said I am sorry multiple times. I will always be sorry. I am just trying to fix this relationship. I am just trying to fix the family. That’s it.”

[Zach]

Zach kissed Hope back before hearing Grace’s voice. “If you don’t leave in the next two fucking seconds I will cut you up into a thousand pieces while you are still alive and then hand them to your husband on a fucking platter. Get out of this room. You were one of the ones who broke it. You can’t undo what you did. You can’t fix it Grace. Nothing you say or do will fix what you did. Now get out.” He roared at her before his eyes flashed black. The sound of glass breaking echoed in the house. 

[Hope] 

Hope could hear glass breaking and moved away slightly as the glass on the counter broke. “Zach.” She said as she made him look at her. “It’s okay.” She gave him a small smile before kissing him. “You told me it will be okay, so you have to believe it too.” She told him, making sure he kept looking at her and placed his hand on her stomach. “It will be okay.” Hope said as she saw Grace leaving the room.

[Zach]

Zach heard Hope’s words and he looked at her. He took a deep breath and when she placed his hand on his stomach he calmed down. “It will all be okay.” He repeats. 

[Hope]

Hope nodded as she smiled at him. “It will.” She heard the door closing and sighed as she knew their guests were gone now. She could hear Eli crying, meaning he was up from his nap. “You can go check on him, I’ll clean up.” She said before kissing him softly. “I love you.”

[Zach]

“I am sure he wants his mom. I can clean up darling.” He tells her before kissing her back. “I love you too.” 

[Hope]

“Hm okay.” She said before moving away from him and heading upstairs to check on Eli.
