Best Dead Friends Forever

2. Cabin Of Secrets

JAYDEN DROPPED THE blanket draped around his shoulders and rushed to the noise. ¨Someone get the door! I got the scream!¨ Jayden said quickly rushing up the stairs into the sounds origin. Noah's room. Jayden twisted the door knob with a loud click, and Jayden almost screamed himself. Jayden heard footsteps behind him and it was Ryan and Ashur. ¨Mason went to go talk to Rye.¨ Ryan said in short breaths and his hair dribbled with water. Ryan and Ashur finally looked at the scene in front of them, and everyone went into stunned silence. But Jayden jumped to action.

Noah was having a seizure, his body convulsing and muscles cramping and uncramping at the same time. His eyes were running with tears, and his skin blistered. His eyes were red and blood shot. He also was having a hard time breathing, as each breath was a wheeze and it was becoming quicker every second.

Jayden gently turned Noah onto his side and didn't touch him any further, and held him softly in place. Letting his body convulse. Jayden hoped this would be over soon. Jayden put a hand into his pocket and felt around for his phone, still holding Noah. Shit, he left it down stairs.¨Does anyone have their fucking phone!?¨ Jayden said in a panicked voice. ¨No! He took mine!¨ Ashur said, looking around the room, trying to find it. Jayden noticed a bottle of pepper spray come loose from Noah's white knuckled grip. ¨I'll call them!¨ Ryan shouted and quickly exited the room. Jayden knew who this belonged to, and he knew what pepper spray does to a person He'd been sprayed before.

¨Ashur.¨ Jayden said in a tone that wasn't aggressive but more of a warning.

¨Yeah?¨ He responded quietly.

¨Why does Noah have your pepper spray and your phone?¨ Jayden replied in a tone that was cold, and rough.

¨He said he needed it, and I trust him! So, I gave it to him! What's the big deal?!¨ Ashur said defensively.

¨Don't you get it?¨ Jayden said quietly. Noah's convulsions becoming slower and his breathing more steady.

¨Get what?¨ Ashur responded, confused.

¨He pepper sprayed himself, in the damn eyes.¨

Mason tried to not let his worry slip through to Rye. She seemed fine with waiting a bit, and he was quite a good actor. ¨So, what have you been up to recently?¨ He asks, calmness slowly filling his tense body. It was nice outside, and the breeze was not to cold and it wasn't too hot either. ¨Oh, i've been working on a new album with the girls recently. Do you wanna help out?¨ She smiled, and Mason could understand why Jayden fell for her. Dark black hair, that came out in waves on her shoulders. Soft grey-blue eyes that reminded Mason of a ocean. And just the unlimited kindness she offered. ¨Oh, sure. I only played the triangle a few times in school, though. Sometimes the piano, too.¨ Mason laughed at the memory. Mason also learned piano during his time at school, and Ryan learned the violin. They did a lot of shows together as well. Rye smiled, and she exhaled a breath of fresh air. ¨Well, we were hoping you and Ryan could do a cover of a song Leslie wrote. Leslie was one of Rye's closest friends, she mentioned her a lot. How she was a actress and model at the same time, featuring on many fashion ones. Even making a entrance in Playboy a few times. ¨Oh, with the violin and piano, right? Not our voices?¨ Mason asked, maybe playing the music together again would bring them closer again.

¨No, sorry. It is the piano and violin though.¨ Rye said, seeming to slump her shoulders.

¨No, it's okay. I have a voice that would break glass, and make ears bleed.¨ Mason said, chuckling to himself.

Is everything okay in the Cabin?

He wanted to just tell Rye to wait and tell her the truth.

Jayden almost begged for him not to.
