You turn to face them ready to defend you actions, your elbow hitting the door in the process, leaving the key imbedded in the lock. Before you can even get a word out your father moves towards you in frustration grabbing your arm and tossing you back towards your mother. “What the hell has gotten into you Jacob?” your father asks as he grabs a hold of the key and fights to get the door unlocked.

You mother is their in her robe and catches you as you slip off balance, her hands on your shoulders to steady you. “Easy Steven, there is no reason to get rough.”

Steven turns to say something to Stacy just as the door look pops and the door is opened.

Your mother grabs you around the shoulders, hugging you from behind. “You ever do that to any of my kids again and you will be on the couch permanently.” Despite your mother’s intentions of protecting you, you’re pissed beyond reason and pull from her embrace, then stomp off to your room, plopping down in your chair. Your about to turn the cam that’s hidden in Timmy’s room on when your mother slips into the room and closes the door.

“Baby we need to talk.” She says as she walks over to you and kneels down in front of where you’re sitting, turning the chair slightly to face her.
