Javan's pov

"I've never seen her act like this. The entire time we were in America, all of last night and this morning, she was fine. Now she's over here not speaking. Not letting anyone get close to her. Did I do something? Is she really that scares of me? Is she just really home sick? I just...I don't know what to do."

I let out a long sigh and I lean on my fiance. We are sat in the living room just so we can see when Victoria comes inside. My brothers and cousin are down here as well.

"Jay I'm sure you did nothing wrong. She's a teenager you know they get moody. Plus she's a girl and girls are just more...they're just more."

Levi tried to comfort me. I groaned to his response.

"Watch it Levi. I may be 'more' but at least I can keep a relationship."

Avery told him, making me smile. It's true though. Levi has never been able to keep a relationship. I was over the moon when Avery's parents gave me their blessings to propose to her and eventually marry her.

"Well we all know she likes Mateo more than any of us so he should be able to get her inside."

"Why is Ev out there with them?"

"Also what exactly happened? No one has said what actually happened."

The triplets all said. Then the door opened and we all went quite. It was only Everett.

"Uh...she...um...she's crying now...and shaking like, a lot. She won't respond to Mat and she won't even let him get any closer than a foot to her....Mateo is really worried about her as well."

I sigh and rub the bridge of my nose. I stand a walk back out to the garage.

"Mat. Vieni dentro per un po'. Lasciala calmare. So che sei preoccupato per lei, ma sono sicuro che starà bene."
(Mat. Come inside for a little bit. Just let her calm down. I know you're worried about her, but I'm sure she'll be fine.)

"Okay...Tori I'm going to be back in a few minutes. Okay? I'll bring you something to snack on, yeah?...okay."

Mateo talked to her but she didn't respond. She was indeed crying, not sobbing, just tears running down her face.

"Just be nice to her Jay and don't try to force her to come inside, she watches your every move."

I nod to Mateo and then he left. I just stood outside the Jeep, studying Victoria as she studied me.

"You're crying Victoria. Is everything okay?..."

Not a single word or movement out of her.

"Did I do something? Are you scared of me? I don't care if you are, I'd just like to know. It hurts all of us to see you like this and we want to help."

She looked down and mumbled something I couldn't hear.

"You're going to have to speak up. I can't understand you Victoria."

"Never mind...leave me alone...please..."

She said, this time loud enough for me to hear her. Her voice didn't sound like hers. It was more fragile and soft, instead of the loud and independent voice she normally talked with.
