Ch. 14

*Colby pov*

My head was pounding and the loud crash and sound of glass shattered didn't help. I slowly walked out of my room and into the kitchen. I saw Jake standing there in shock, there was glass all over the floor. "Jake what the fuck did you do?" I asked going to grab a broom from the closet. "I was trying to make breakfast, but the stupid pancakes mix was to high up and when i went to get it it fell causing a few glasses to fall, and now there's glass everywhere." I walked over to the mess and started cleaning. I was trying to keep my cool because this wasn't the first time Jake has broken stuff trying to cook.

Just four months ago he was banned from the kitchen after forgetting about some muffins he was baking and almost catching the oven on fire.

"I can help."

"Jake just get the fuck out." And he did. I swept the mess carefully and threw away the glass. Luckily it was only two cups that we didn't really use.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to." Jake said to me as i was walking back to my room. "It's fine, just be more careful next time." He looked surprised and I continued walking.

I laid back down and tried to go back to sleep but I could hear Jake struggling in the kitchen again. He doesn't even like cooking, why is he trying so hard? He's never made anything edible, so why does he think the pancakes are going to come out good?

On a new note Kat hasn't spoken to me. I don't blame her, I wouldn't speak to me either. To be honest I don't even know what happened. One minute i was out of white claw and the next i was pacing in my room. When I saw Kat the next day I started to put the pieces together. She had a black eye I had bruised knuckles, I felt terrible. But she seemed so mad it would've been awkward I apologized, right?

Sam got to the studio and I told everyone the reason we were there. I wish it would've been on better circumstances, and i planed on having some type of celebratory drink there, but you know.

The tension grew thick and really quick so I left and went home.

When i got home reality hit hard. I'm sure I lost all of their trust. They all hate me. I've lost any chance I had with Sam. Which was already slim. Jake and Kat will definitely never see me as their best friend again. I might as well leave.

Then Sam texted me. I knew he was angry, i was angry at myself too. Everything he said was right, and I was too immature at admit it. So i did the only thing i could think of. I quit the band.

Of course I didn't want to. I love performing and being with them. But all I ever do is hurt them, I can never seem to do the right thing. So it's better if i just leave, if I let them do what they're good at. They really don't even need me, Jake and Kat are amazing at singing. Compared to them I'm mediocre at best. If anything me leaving should help them.

I'm looking for a new place, maybe when I move out Sam will take my room. I won't mind he works with them, I don't.

There's a place an hour away from here, it's really nice and has a mini bar. It's a little smaller than the one I live in now, but it'll only be me. As I'm looking through the photos my phone goes off.

Sam
