ANDREA POV

We break away faster than light, but I think the damage is already done by the look on Ash's face.

"What- I.. you.." Ash jumbles his words.

"Look it's not what it looks like." Devyn stands up walking slowly towards him.

"Don't come near me."

"Ash, please just listen." Even if he does stop to listen to me what would I even say. This is all my fault.

"Listen to what? Huh? What?"

"I-"

"Shut up, Devyn. Just shut up. I'm not even as disappointed in her then I am in you. All these years together... just down the drain." The pain is present on his face which makes me hate myself even more. I walk over to him and place my hand on his shoulder but he swats it away.

"Go away. Leave me alone."

"It wasn't what you think." I try to explain.

"Then what the fuck was it? Just making out as friends? Please fucking explain." He's so angry that he take the bottle in his hand and smacks it against the railing. It breaks into small pieces and the shattering of glass fills the night sky.

"You're drunk, stop it's not safe up here." I grab his arm again. He pushes me away.

"I said stay away. What did I ever do to deserve this? My best friend, my ex girl friend, the person I trusted most, you Devyn, yes you, you're the one who had to go behind my back with MY girlfriend? I should have known."

"We can talk about this once we get down." Devyn tries to calm him down.

"Stop it. You're sly, cunning b-bitch. You really hurt me. Both of you. Don't you guys get it?"

"We do. We fucked up okay? We were drinking and we got carried away. It didn't mean anything." I say as fast as I could. Both Devyn and Ashton look at me.

"It didn't look like it meant nothing. How stupid do you think I am? And what about what happened back there with the car?"

"What about it?"

"I'm your boyfriend. You always said you never got along with Dev. But when we crashed, you went to her first. Why? Godammit, why?"

"That doesn't mean anything, Sierra was already with you I just wanted to make sure she was okay." I plead.

"Really?"

"Come on Ash let's go." Devyn once again tries to move him back but he pushes her aggressively.

"Stop it Ash!"

"You are your mother's daughter." Ashton tells Devyn as he has her pinned against the wall of the lighthouse. I can see that Devyn has gotten angry by the look on her face.

"Don't talk about my mother." Devyn shoves him with her elbow and he stumbles back.

"Oh yeah? You're mother was a c-"

Before he can finish, Devyn sends punch flying across his face. His nose starts to bleed.

"Shut the fuck up."

"No, fuck you." He tackles her from the waist and she goes flying back, hitting her head once again on the railing. She screams in pain.

"Ash, what the fuck is wrong with you?" I pull him away as I see Devyn laying on against the rusted railing. Blood oozes out of head and her wound from the car is barely visible under all the blood.

"Help me get her down I think she's losing consciousness." I tell Ash. He takes a look at her and storms down the stairs without looking back.

"Hey, hey , hey, Devyn?" I try to keep her eyes open but the pain takes over her.

"Go." She whispers.

"What?"

"After him. Go. You... said.... didn't mean anything."

"Stop it.You're hurt."

With her eyes barely open she gives my hand a squeeze.

"Leave. Please."

"I can't leave you like this I-"

"GO!" She says with a little more effort. Getting up I make a plan to go get help. I run down the stairs, but as I look up I can see Devyn trying to stand up using the railing. I stop running because I see that she leans too much on the railing. It's going to give away. Fuck. My arm aches but I run back in the direction of the light house. As I go back up the stairs, I suddenly hear a loud thump. As I lean over, I peer down to see, Devyn.

My heart races as I run to her. Please be okay.

"Help! Gabe! Ash! Sierra! Bella! Help! Sierra!" I yell on top of my lungs. I hold her head in my lap and her pulse feels weak.

"Help! Guys!" I try again.

"Andrea?" Sierra comes running and when she takes in Devyn she starts to panic, " How did this- help me get her into the car."

Gabe rushes to help and I don't see Ash anywhere in sight. We pile into the car with Devyn and Sierra. Devyn is not waking up as she's sprawled out in the backseat. I look at my hands under the light.

They're red. Bloody. I've got blood on my hands.
