song of the chap: the beach- the NBHD

the next day, sierra awoke on the couch, with casilda laying on the opposite side of the "L". she was quite confused as to what was happening, but she sat up and rubbed her eyes regardless. when she sat up, she saw all 5 of the boys sitting/standing in the kitchen, quietly chattering among themselves.

"what the hell,' she mumbled to herself, looking at her hands to see the circulation cut off in her wrists. al though she had mumbled it, the boys still heard it. they all froze and tried to pretend that they weren't talking, slowly turning on their heels towards the living room.

"good morning!" the Aussies all said at the same time like they were cult leaders, freaking the hell out of sierra.

"what, the, hell?? why am I here??" sierra asked as she stood up and walked to the kitchen. everyone looked at her like she was a ghost. Sierra didn't understand why, until it hit her.

Brandon was dead, and she was the reason why.

she dipped her head down and rubbed her forehead, trying not to cry.

"God, I have to tell his family-" sierras voice cracked. she was leaning against the counter now, inbetween Mitchel and Christian. Mitchel wanted to rub her back and help her feel better, but he was too awkward to say anything. especially after what happened with Lauren last night.

*cue the weird-ass flashback in mittys pov*

sierra walked up to Clinton's room with clint, where she'll probably just cry and try to make her feel better. Lauren sat on the couch next to me, bouncing her leg anxiously.

I need to tell her about me and sierra, it's now or never. and I have a feeling this won't end well, Lauren is very possessive sometimes.

"laur, I need to tell you something," I told her, not daring to look in her eyes.

"what's up?" Lauren asked, trying to get mitty to look at her in the eyes.

"sierra and I used to fuck and then she told me she wasn't ready so that's why we are so awkward and I'm so sorry but I think that I'm not in love with you"

*end cue weird-ass flashback and return to 3rd person*

sierra wanted to break down and cry right there, but she knew she couldn't. because if she did, cas would wake up and do the same as sierra. and as much as sierra was hurting, she didn't want to do that to her best friend.

"let us know if you need a ride, any of us will give you one," mitty offered, helpfully looking to sierra, rubbing her arm. she looked at him with a smile, but then the sadness took over and a tear escaped her eye. she knew that she had to go back to his house at some point, and help clear it out. but she really didn't want to.

"um, yeah can you give me a ride back to my house and then to Brandon?" sierra quietly asked Mitchel and he nodded, before grabbing his keys. sierra ran over to the couch and kissed Cas's head before leaving, knowing that this was a tough loss for the both of them.

in the car, the kids sat in silence with only shuffled music from Mitchel's playlist to break the bubble of awkwardness. Mitchel was worried about sierra, he knew that she had gotten into trouble when they were at the club and since then, he watched her like a hawk.

this is unbearable, I need to tell someone. at least Mitchel would understand.

after they walked into the house and closed the door, sierra couldn't handle it anymore. she tried tp keep he cool together as she brewed her tea in front of mitchel, but it wasn't going too well.
