13-Lies

Matt's POV.

I can't sleep or do anything.

"Where the fuck is she? It's already 10 a.m.." I say.

"I'm sure she's fine, chill out." Hayes says.

The door swings open and Cam walks in.I get up eagerly expecting Katie.

"Katie!" I yelp.I look and she isn't there. "Cam, where's Katie?" I ask.

"Hell I don't know, I was drunk and all I remeber is she said she hated me and left me in a closet." He says running his fingers through his hair.

"Was she with Carter ever?" I ask.

He nods."He pulled her into a room to talk I assume. " he says.

"If he layed a fucking finger on her-"

"Espinosa! Damn you need to chill, Carter isn't like that anymore!" Aaron says hitting my back.

"Don't fucking tell me that.How am I suppose to just believe that? How am I suppose to even believe you?"

"Matt you're blowing things out of proportion.If you really wanna know where she is go to Carter." Aaron says.

"Cam where does Carter live?" I ask.

"The same place he's always lived. " Cam says.I nod."Oh by the way..she found our about Daniella. " he adds.

"WHAT?" I yell.

He shrugs.

"You fucking told her didn't you?"

"No.Carter did."

"Fucking asshole." I mutter.

Katie's POV.

I wake up to find Carter and Jack eating on the other bed.

"Goodmorning. " they say looking away from the t.v.

"Goodmorning. " I say hastily.

"Your morning voice..Woah. " Jack says.I laugh.

"What about it?"

"It's so cool." He shrugs.I nod and get up.

"When do you want to go home?" Carter asks.

"Mm..three." I say.

"Alright, gives us time to catch up." He says. I nod.

"Taco bell." I say.They both nod and put down their cereal bowls.

~

"So where did you guys go?" I ask.

"San Francisco." Carter says biting into his taco.

"Oh."

"So what ever happened to Nick?" Carter asks.

Nick.His name hits me like a million knives.

I look out the window.

I take a deep breath. "He passed away, a year ago. " I mumble.They put their food down.

"I'm sorry." Jack says.Carter sits next to me.I look away from them, trying to avoid tears.

"It's okay to cry.." Carter says.He wraps his arms around me.

Then the tears come.

He rubs my back whispering comforting words in my ear.I.pull away from him and wipe my tears.

"I'm sorry. " I mumble.

"It's fine." Carter says with a faint smile.

"Nick was a nice guy." Jack says.
