Kevin's POV
Nick and I were sitting in the kitchen with Kaity who had come over for breakfest before school. Joe came into the kitchen trying to put his Math book into his backpack. I noticed Joe had another bruise on his left wrist that he was trying to hide with his sweatshirt sleeve and the concealor we had in the in the bathroom for that reason. Joe sat down next to Kaity and grabed a Poptart, showing his bruise off.
Kaity: Joe another bruise!
Joe: What, um no. (he said pulling his sleeve down)
Kevin: (I graped his arm and pulled his sleeve up) Joe this looks like Dad's fingers. What did he do? When? And why didn't you tell me?
Joe: (yanked his arm away) It's nothing!
Nick: Joey it's not nothing, I don't like Dad hurting you.
Joe: (pulled Nick into a hug) I'm sorry Nickers, but it's nothing to worry about.
Nick: You promise?
Joe: I promise.
Kaity Aww! sorry to break up this brotherly moment but unfortunetly(sp?) it's time for school
(FF, to after school nothing happens)
(still Kevin's POV)
Kaity dropped me, Joe and Nick off at home and went to her after school job at a coffee shop. When I opened the door we found Dad passed out on the couch, three beer bottles on the floor one in his hands.
Nick: Wow typical(he walked into the kitchen)
Joe seemed alittle however. I put my bag down in time to turn around and see Joe run up the stairs.
Nick:(walks out of the kitchen holding a banana) What was that?
Kevin: Joe. he just sprited up the stairs.
Nick: Think somethings wrong?
Kevin: i don't know, im gonna go talk to him.
Nick: I'll come with i don't like being alone with dad even if hes passed out.
kevin: all right come on.
Joes POV
When we got home and i saw dad passed out, i got scares. I was hoping he woundn't be home at all. When Kevin turned around i ran upstairs to my room.I sat down against a wall, hugging my knees and started to cry. I than heared foot steps and my brothers walked in.
Kevin: Aw, Joe what's wrong?
Nick: Joey you okay?
Joe: (I quickly wipped the tears but they kept coming.)I I. . .No.
Kevin: What's wrong?
Joe: I don't want wanna b be here any more.
Kevin: Why not?
Nick Joey whats going on?
Joe: (more tear escaped down my face.) i'll tell you as soon as we get out of here
Kevin: let me call Kaity. Maybe we can stay at her place for a afew days.
Kevin sat down nwxt to me and put an arm around my shaking sholders and dialed Kay's (A.N. my nickname) number
Phone convo
Kaity: Hello?
Kevin: Kay it's kevin
Kaity: what's up? everything okay?
Kevin: no,um Joe doesn't want to stay here anymore. I was wondering, maybe we could spend a few days at your place.
Kaity: Yeah that's fine but what's wrong?
