But Hedda felt like they did know and that was why they were giving her space.

Did they know she was about to break?

She heard their footsteps leave the room and the click of the door. Opening her eyes, she looked to make sure they were actually out of the room.

How could she have let this all happen? She thought she had a better grip on everything.

But she was wrong.

So wrong.

Hedda gripped her hair and pulled. She should've known better. Rogan had taught her better. She pulled her head forward before pushing her head back, hitting it up against the wall.

She was so angry at herself for allowing them to affect her this much. They shouldn't be affecting her this much but they were.

She groaned in pain, but she needed to punish herself somehow. It was unacceptable for what she did.

Hedda hit her head against the wall again.

"Stop," Oliver growled. "Stop fucking hitting your head."

She stopped, but she started to pull at her hair again. She needed to feel pain. Hedda needed to feel like she was in control of something in her life right now.

She felt like everything was getting taken away from her or she was freely giving it away when she told herself she wouldn't. Why was she doing this?

She was doing everything she told herself not to do.

"Stop," Leo said as he took hold of one of her hands.

She moved around, trying to get out of his hold.

"Let me go!" she yelled. "Fucking let me go you piece of shit!"

Maybe she could hurt their feelings enough they would let her go.

"Not going to happen," Leo said.

Oliver grabbed her other arm and both of them picked her up.

"Everything is going to be okay," Oliver said as they put her in the crib.

She tried kicking her legs, but with the way they positioned her body, she wasn't hitting anything.

"Shit!" she yelled. "Just fucking let me go already!"

"You're going to take a nap," Leo said. "I think it'll do some good. I bet you're tired from everything that happened."

She yelled and thrashed around. She was not going to take a nap.

"You're okay," Oliver said as he put a cuff around her wrist. "This is just for your protection. We don't want you hurting yourself."

Hedda screamed as Leo put the other cuff on. She was put in place and she couldn't get out. Why did she put herself into this position? She should've waited until they were gone before she did anything. Why did she have to be so stupid and do something now?

She wasn't thinking and just letting her emotions get the better of her. The anger she felt for everything that had happened. The anger towards herself for letting it happen.

She should've been better than this. And yet here she was.

"You're okay," Leo said as he ran his hand through her hair. "You're okay. We're here for you."
