TW: SH! But not too specific. 

After Axel told everyone about the 'incident', everyone started to go back home because they had too since it was late. Lizzie, Robbie, RDJ and his wife promise Chris to be there in the morning. Chris has asked Scarlett to go home and come the next morning. She needs to rest herself too because believe it or not, Chris still cared about her.

Axel couldn't go to sleep that night. He just crawls on his father's bed, crying in his embrace while Chris just comforts his son.

Both are feeling guilty about Alexa. Chris for leaving them both, Axel for making her hurt all over again when he was supposed to protect her.

It was now 11 in the morning. The person who was supposed to be here arrived at 8 am. To be honest, everyone couldn't sleep yesterday. They are too anxious, and still can't wrap their minds around after hearing the twin's 'incident'

As expected, Alexa's performance yesterday has gone viral all over the world. Scarlett watched the videos of Alexa performing last night. Scarlett can't stop crying knowing that the song is about her and she really did lots of damage on Alexa.

Axel goes downstairs to meet everyone in the kitchen after his 10th attempt to get Alexa out of her room and eat breakfast because she hasn't eaten since yesterday. His eyes were swollen and red must be from yesterday night and just now.

"Axie, can I talk to you?" Scarlett asks softly. Axel just looked at his mother and nodded his head nonetheless. He is no longer mad at Scarlett as yesterday. They go to the backyard for some privacies

"Axie, I love you both and I know you told me yesterday that you guys don't trust words anymore but I just want to tell you this that I love you both no matter what and I'll do whatever it takes to fix this. I promise and this is not empty promises because I swear to myself already. I can't sleep at night after I know I hurt you both. I made a big mistake here and I'm here to fix this. Please Axie, don't push me away" Scarlett said, begging her son

Axel just look at Scarlett with his own tears flowing out his face

"It's not me you have to talk to. It's Lex. And more importantly, you have to started to show that you really mean that not just by throwing words at her" Axel replied whispering trying to control his crying

"I know Baby, but I have to come clean to both of you too. I love you both so much" Scarlett said, hugging her son. They both were crying.

Axel just clung to his mother, crying in her embrace while Scarlett just comforted him from his crying.

After Axel and Scarlett talked, they are still worrying over Alexa as she didn't get out of her room yet. Axel was trying his best to not panic but he couldn't keep himself together thinking about all the bad things Alexa could do.

"Lex, could you open the door for me please? Please Bear. I need to know you're okay in there" Axel said begging. Bear is her nickname from Axel. Only Axel could call her that.

He got no answers. Met with silence but then he heard something in her room. Sounds like she's in the bathroom and what caught him off guard was something that fell into the floor. He knows exactly what that sound was

"Alexa! Open the door! Alexandrea!" Axel said shouting panicking, banging the door everyone downstairs could hear the panicking shouting that Axel throw

"DAD!" Axel called for his dad and by the time everyone was upstairs Axel were crying, banging on the door

"I heard something in her bathroom. I know what that sound was. Please we need to open this door Dad" Axel said begging with his tears.
